Healing Doctor

Chapter 426 Tell your Old Yang not to mess with him

Director Yang sighed softly at Ji Xiang's answer.

This child is too relaxed; he doesn't see himself as a superior doctor at all, but rather as a peer friend.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have said that.

But is it really appropriate to speak to a senior doctor in this tone?

Director Yang wasn't going to get really angry over a few jokes; his attention was focused on the MRI images.

As a doctor, being able to persuade patients to undergo tests is a remarkable ability, but at its core, it's about interpersonal skills, a necessary skill for seasoned professionals, but not an essential ability for elite doctors.

diagnosis!

This is the true mark of a doctor.

Director Yang was very curious whether Ji Xiang's "guess" was correct.

Twenty minutes later, the MRI images of cholangiopancreatography came out.

Further evaluation of the bile duct tree through imaging revealed a stone at the stump of the cystic duct, accompanied by compression of the common bile duct and dilation of the upstream bile duct!

Ji Xiang's "guess" was completely correct!

Because there were many patients in the MRI room, and although the film crew had come early in the morning for their check-ups, they didn't follow along.

After confirming the images, Director Yang felt a little strange.

"Dr. Ji Xiang, how did you determine that?" Director Yang asked.

"I guess so," Ji Xiang replied. "I've encountered a similar patient before; the images on his ultrasound report were similar to those of patients in our department."

Director Yang immediately thought of what Ji Xiang had said to the patient last night and his explanation to himself.

Just saying, don't take it seriously, they're at it again!

Gan!

Director Yang was slightly angry.

It wasn't entirely anger; he was just slightly displeased with Ji Xiang's nonchalant attitude and disrespectful tone towards his superiors.

He was nothing like a young, inexperienced intern; he was as slick as a seasoned attending physician who had been working in the clinic for over a decade or two.

"Xiao Zhai".

"Boss." Zhai Yuhan followed behind Director Yang.

"Contact the ERCP room and send him for examination and surgery," Director Yang simply instructed.

These were the simplest little events in Zhai Yuhan's clinical life. In addition, the film crew was going to record other people's work today, so Zhai Yuhan didn't have to face the camera, and she felt much more relaxed.

However, Zhai Yuhan soon discovered another advantage of Ji Xiang – he was really efficient at his work.

The preoperative instructions, various documents, and communication with the patient were all handled in an orderly manner.

In the afternoon, the patient was taken to the ERCP room.

During endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), cholangiography showed a filling defect at the distal end of the inserted long cystic duct, suggesting that residual stones were causing partial biliary obstruction.

ERCP and MRI images were compared to confirm that the patient did indeed have Mirizzi syndrome after cholecystectomy.

A sphincterotomy was performed, and a 9-12 mm balloon was inserted to explore the common bile duct. Moderate resistance was encountered at the insertion site of the cystic duct.

No filling defects or stones were found in the CBD after the surgery.

Subsequently, selective placement of the cystic duct and insertion of a balloon were performed to remove a relatively large gallstone. Balloon cholangiography showed that the entire bile duct, including the stump of the cystic duct, had no residual filling defects, and bile and contrast agent drainage was good.

After the surgery, Zhai Yuhan felt much more relaxed. As she watched Ji Xiang escort the patient back to the ward, she was stopped by the director of the ERCP room.

"Xiao Zhai".

"Director Zheng, what's the matter?"

"Is that the doctor from the reality show?" Director Zheng asked with interest, watching Ji Xiang's retreating figure.

"Yes."

"How's it going? These young men didn't affect the clinical work, did they? You know, the dean was really something, how did he end up taking on such a job? Our clinical work is so serious, how can it be associated with a reality show?"

Director Zheng grumbled.

Zhai Yuhan felt a bitter taste in her mouth.

Director Zheng's thoughts were the same as her previous ones, full of complaints and disdain.

But Ji Xiang "handled" this patient from beginning to end, leaving Zhai Yuhan speechless.

"What are you thinking about?" Director Zheng asked.

"Director Zheng, this patient..." Zhai Yuhan briefly described what happened, without exaggeration or denigration, just a simple description.

"Wow, this kid's got guts!" Director Zheng exclaimed in surprise. "What's his name?"

"Ji Xiang".

"This name..." Director Zheng pondered, "It sounds really familiar."

"Auspicious life? Look at the name they chose, adding the word 'doctor' makes it a pun." The nurse next to her laughed.

"No!" Director Zheng retrieved something about Ji Xiang from his memory and asked, "Ji Xiang... Ji Xiang... isn't he the resident physician at Baiyi Medical University?"

"Yes," Zhai Yuhan said. "Is he that famous? He got the highest score in the national professional medical exam this year, a perfect score. It's normal that people know about him."

"What? He got a perfect score in the national medical exam, ranking first?! Well, I don't believe anyone else can get a perfect score, but it's no surprise that Ji Xiang got first place nationwide." Director Zheng was completely stunned, but then a relieved expression appeared on his face.

"Director Zheng, what's wrong with you...?" Zhai Yuhan looked at Director Zheng, puzzled.

"The boss of Qin Chu, who works at Shanghai Gan Dan, recently wanted to take Ji Xiang as a student and even held an annual meeting," Director Zheng said. "It's related to interventional medicine, so it's normal that you don't know about it."

"And then?" Zhai Yuhan immediately became serious upon hearing Director Zheng's question.

"Director Zheng, consultation requested!"

Just then, a head popped out of the reading room door, and a doctor shouted loudly.

"I'm here." Director Zheng, not yet satisfied with his gossip, smacked his lips and gave Zhai Yuhan a deep look.

"Xiao Zhai, this guy has a bad temper. Be careful not to offend him."

Director Zheng told her not to offend a junior intern. For a moment, Zhai Yuhan thought she was hallucinating and had misunderstood Director Zheng's meaning.

"Go back and tell your husband, 'Don't let him cry when he's drinking and looks humiliated after being roasted.'"

As Director Zheng spoke, he seemed to remember something, chuckled, and turned to leave.

"Zheng..." Zhai Yuhan called out, but seeing Director Zheng rushing back to review the film, she could only sigh helplessly.

Director Zheng told half of the gossip, as if he knew some details.

Besides achieving a perfect score and ranking first in the country, Ji Xiang also had a deeper background, which Zhai Yuhan never expected.

When Mr. Qin, the ruthless boss of Shanghai, offered to take Ji Xiang as his student, Zhai Yuhan was momentarily distracted.

That's a nationally renowned, top-tier hospital, with that old man overseeing it, his technical skills are top-notch... well, not really. Zhai Yuhan heard that the old man has become a mascot, and his major surgeries are no longer the mainstream procedure.

But no matter what, with that elderly person around, the hospital's level certainly wouldn't be low.

Director Qin of the Interventional Radiology Department... Zhai Yuhan pondered over and over again the words that Director Zheng had only uttered at the beginning, but she still couldn't understand them.

I went to the reading room and saw that Director Zheng was having a consultation. Zhai Yuhan could only regretfully go back with a big piece of gossip to tell.

I'm so curious! It felt like a little cat was scratching at my heart.
