Falling behind at the start, the first surgery shocked the world.

Chapter 103 What are the rules?

3 PM.

In the summer, Li Xiaohong, Fatty, and another person went to the operating room together. They washed their hands, changed into surgical gowns, put on masks, and entered the sterile operating room.

The patient was already lying on the operating table.

Under the operating lights, the patient looked tense, his whole body in a state of tension.

It's normal for anyone to be nervous during their first surgery.

There might even be a situation where one is like a fish on a chopping board, completely at the mercy of others.

"Uncle, don't be nervous. The surgery is under general anesthesia. You won't feel anything during the whole process. You'll just take a nap and wake up in a little while, and the surgery will be over."

"Relax now and let the nurse give you the injection."

The patient nodded to Xia Tian and then took a deep breath.

The nurse inserts a needle.

After intestinal obstruction surgery, at least seven days of intravenous injections are required. To avoid daily injections, a needle embedding method is adopted.

"doctor."

The patient called out.

Summer is quickly coming to an end.

"Is there anything else?"

Seeing that the patient looked unwell, Xia Tian encouraged him, "It's okay, feel free to ask me any questions or doubts."

The patient's mouth moved, and he hesitated for a good ten seconds, as if he had used all his strength to say those words.

"I looked it up, and this surgery is quite dangerous, with a 3% mortality rate."

"If something goes wrong during the surgery, try to save her if you can, but if you can't, then don't try. My wife is only 39 years old, and I don't want to be a burden on her. I'd rather just die."

The patient's words stunned all the medical staff in the operating room.

Li Xiaohong and Xia Tian exchanged a glance.

It is still very rare for patients to voluntarily give up resuscitation.

After all, everyone is afraid of dying.

Xia Tian patted the patient's hand and said to him.

"Your wife is only 39 years old. She has given birth to your children. What will happen to her after you're gone?"

"rest assured!"

"Everything will be alright."

Hot tears streamed from the patient's eyes, heavy with the weight of summer.

"Believe me!"

"I will heal you!"

The patient nodded to him and said thank you, "Thank you, doctor. Let's begin the surgery."

Summer nodded.

He gave Lao Chang a look and then injected the anesthetic.

Three seconds later, the patient fell into a deep sleep.

"Fatty, intubate him."

In general anesthesia, intubation is necessary to assist breathing.

After intubation.

The surgery officially began.

"Electrosurgical knife".

Electrosurgical excision procedure (ESC), also known as high-frequency electrosurgical excision procedure, can quickly stop bleeding and reduce the risk of infection.

High-frequency current generates instantaneous high temperatures, instantly melting tissue and acting as a cutting tool.

During the cutting process, a strong smell of barbecue would fill the operating room.

Some patients under local anesthesia smelled barbecue during surgery and mistook it for the smell of some kind of medicine. In fact, it was just the smell of barbecue.

The meat being roasted was that of the patient.

Opening the abdomen.

"absorb."

After opening the abdomen, there will be a small amount of bleeding in the abdominal cavity. The traction device needs to suck out the blood inside to make the view inside the abdominal cavity clearer.

Li Xiaohong used the traction device to suck out all the blood.

The intestines are exposed.

There is a dark spot on the left side of the transverse colon in the lower abdomen.

The black spots are obvious and the color is different from that of other intestines.

"here."

Summer pointed to the location of the dark spots.

"Fatty, help me out."

With the fat man's help, the two of them removed the entire large intestine from the abdominal cavity.

How big are the dark spots?

The fat man took the measuring device and performed a measurement.

10cm.

"Very good." Xia Tian nodded with satisfaction.

The transverse colon is 40 cm long. If 10 cm is removed, a stoma is not needed.

"Brother Tian, should we cut it?"

The area with the black spots must be removed. Since black spots have appeared, it means that this section of the intestine has already died, and only by removing it can the body recover.

"There's no rush yet."

Summer turned her attention to other organizations.

"Check other areas for intussusception and adhesions. Examine carefully."

In summer, they examined the intestines inch by inch, following the natural flow of the intestines.

Generally, once black spots are found in the intestines, all that's needed is to remove them. But since the abdomen has already been opened, the surgery must be done perfectly, leaving no inch untouched.

"Brother Tian, we didn't find anything," the fat man said.

"Brother Tian, I haven't found it either," Li Xiaohong shook her head.

After checking, Xia Tian found nothing.

But the human intestine is 1.5 meters long.

Moreover, the patient has a history of intestinal infarction, indicating that the intestinal tissue is fragile and there may be other necrotic parts.

In addition, the recurrence rate of intestinal infarction is very high.

During the summer, all potential risks must be eliminated during the surgery.

"Check it again."

The three of them proceeded from the beginning to the end.

"Let's do it one last time."

I checked it three times in total.

"That's fine."

"Remove the necrotic tissue."

……

Department of proctology.

Liu Yu was making his rounds when an attending physician rushed in, speaking anxiously.

"Director, something terrible has happened!"

Liu Yu glanced at him, and said unhurriedly, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?"

The attending physician said, "I heard that in operating room number 8, a resident is performing surgery on a patient with an intestinal obstruction. A resident, performing surgery on an intestinal obstruction?!"

What?!?!?!?!

Liu Yu's eyes widened, his old face instantly turning red, and he roared angrily.

"What qualifications does a resident physician have to perform bowel obstruction surgery?"

There were several doctors nearby.

People were discussing, "If he can do it, it means this resident doctor is quite capable, right?"

"Nonsense!!!"

Liu Yu glared and rebuked, "Rules are rules. No matter how skilled a resident doctor is, he is not qualified to perform surgery for intestinal obstruction."

"That's the rule at the provincial hospital!"

"No one can destroy it!"

"Let's go to the operating room."

Liu Yu strode forward, followed by three or four attending physicians. The group looked smug and ready to fight.

While waiting for the elevator, Liu Yu asked a question.

"What's the resident doctor's name?"

One doctor said, "It seems to be called Summer."

Liu Yu: ...

Why didn't you say so earlier!

He turned and walked towards the office: "Since it's summer, there's no need to go. Let him do it."

All attending physicians.

"But...you just said that the provincial hospital has rules?"
