When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Jing Ran looked at the chest cavity that was adhered like a garbage can!

He couldn’t help but sigh.

As a doctor, one really needed to be patient, otherwise in such a tangled mess, he really wanted to just crumple it all up and throw it away.

He forced himself to calm down and kept thinking from different perspectives. How would his teacher handle this situation?

Jing Ran liked this mode of thinking because at times like this, he always managed to find special discoveries.

Perhaps the teacher would definitely first stabilize the thoracic aorta, then separate the esophagus and trachea, as well as the surrounding chest cavity adhesions, right?

At that moment, Jing Ran suddenly thought of Chen Cang!

If Doctor Chen were to do it, how would he proceed?

Everyone has different characteristics; Chen Cang’s techniques are youthful and steady, perhaps his separation would be more reliable?

Looking at the young doctor beside him who was at a loss, Jing Ran couldn’t help but sigh again. Such surgery really demanded a lot from a partner.

Chen Cang watched the mess with a sense of trepidation!

[Ding! A level 50 high-difficulty dungeon discovered! Join it, complete the surgery successfully, and receive generous dungeon rewards!]

Chen Cang was slightly startled, not expecting such a complex surgery to become a high-level difficulty surgical dungeon.

However, it really did deserve to be called a high-difficulty dungeon; all the “monsters” inside were about elite level, and dealing with them would indeed be as exhausting as clearing a major dungeon!

Chen Cang, looking at the entire chest cavity, also couldn’t help but become serious. While Jing Ran was contemplating earlier, he hadn’t stopped thinking.

He was also considering how to proceed!

As his eyes continually took in the adhesion situation, he could see the degree of penetration between the gauze and tissue. Some materials had already embedded themselves in the esophagus, making separation highly unlikely. The best choice might be to cut out a damaged section and then suture the ends together squarely.

The esophagus needed to be dealt with, the trachea was the same, and the thorniest issue was still the thoracic aorta!

With the gauze having been adhered for a long time, the surrounding scar tissue had thickened, and Chen Cang could clearly see the thoracic aorta wall protruding like a tumor.

Although it was not very large, it definitely needed to be removed, with the narrowed section excised, and then reconnected end-to-end.

This was truly a high-difficulty dungeon!

What Chen Cang had mentioned was only about the large organs and tissues, the visible dangers, but beyond that, there were many invisible hazards.

And indeed, these were the most troublesome!

There were also the collateral vessels that had formed, including the intercostal arteries that supply blood to the spinal cord. These arteries were very thin and would definitely require careful ligation during separation.

Not to mention that Jing Ran alone couldn’t complete the operation, even Chen Cang, aided with his ‘cheat’, was finding it tough!

This was not an operation that one person could complete alone!

He had already seen Jing Ran’s helplessness.

At this time, Chen Cang knew that he could not shy away; he took the initiative and said, “I’ll help you!”

That one sentence made everyone around them suddenly stunned.

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Jing Ran looked up sharply!

He met Chen Cang’s resolute eyes, and his heart lifted, feeling a lot more grounded all of a sudden.

Jing Ran nodded, “Mm!”

He didn’t ask how Chen Cang had arrived, nor why he had come.

At this very moment, Jing Ran felt as if he was in a situation where he was trapped and suddenly his partner had descended from the sky.

Chen Cang turned to the nurse and said, “Give me two pieces of gauze, washed with saline.”

The nurse hurriedly nodded!

Afterwards, Chen Cang placed the gauze between the esophagus and trachea, then took a pair of scissors and looked at Jing Ran, “I’m ready!”

At this moment, Meng Xi, seeing the situation, also protected the ascending aorta, her burden heavy, but she nodded earnestly, “I’m ready too!”

Jing Ran felt the same sensation he had back at Fuwai!

Reliable teammates!

He picked up the dissecting forceps and scissors, knowing he needed to cut through the adhesions first!

Then he’d proceed step by step!

At this moment, the anesthesiologist announced, “All set, the airway is established, we can proceed with the surgery!”

Jing Ran nodded and began the operations in his hands!

With each step, he barely needed to speak, as Chen Cang would coordinate seamlessly.

The two exchanged instruments back and forth, their eye contact speaking volumes: I understand!

Each move was a result of collaboration!

Each incision, precise to the point.

Gradually, Jing Ran got into his stride.

Chen Cang’s overall control of the surgeries was not as good as Jing Ran’s, and his work on the tracheal anastomosis was even further behind Jing Ran’s.

The cooperation process was also a learning process!

Unintentionally glancing at the clock, it was already eleven o’clock. Could this turn into a sleepless night?

Chen Cang sighed.

At this point, Jing Ran had completed the tracheal reconstruction, and it was time to separate the esophagus from the surrounding tissue.

Each separation needed careful attention, the damaged gauze threads embedded in human tissue, some entering the outer membrane of the esophagus, causing adhesion and necrosis.

Fortunately, with Chen Cang and Meng Xi’s cooperation, the surgery could proceed more smoothly.

And with the assistance of his eye-extension, Chen Cang would always point out those easily missed or dangerous elements, keeping Jing Ran alert.

When twelve o’clock arrived, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

By now, most of the surgery was likely complete.

With the help of Chen Cang, Meng Xi, and their colleagues, all the gauze wrapped around the esophagus had been thoroughly cleaned, along with the tissues that had been cut and treated.

After irrigation, the situation inside the thoracic cavity had drastically improved, at least looking orderly at the moment, and not as confused as before.

Jing Ran’s eyes were filled with excitement!

It had been so long since he’d felt like this.

A thoroughly engaging surgery, that unwittingly improved one’s own skills.

And Jing Ran was feeling exactly this.

He looked up at Chen Cang, Meng Xi, and his colleagues, nodding gratefully.

Without them, this successful surgery wouldn’t have been possible!

There are heroes in the operating room, but no hero fights alone.

The others nodded back in response. It had to be said, Jing Ran’s intrathoracic surgery skills were really quite remarkable.

Steady and ordered, never panicking.

However, it wasn’t the time for mutual praise and celebration, because they all knew the war wasn’t over yet; what awaited them next was the even more difficult task of removing the narrow segment of the ascending aorta.

Surgery is just like that, a passing of responsibility!

The baton in his hand needed to be handed over now!

Meng Xi did not hesitate for a moment to take the baton.

Next, it was her time to shine.
