"At this point in the surgery, the ones who still need to be introduced are mainly reporters, right?" Yu Yuan did not show any fear. She just glanced at the reporter who talked about AI and secretly remembered his face. Then, she asked loudly.
The reporters present nodded. Someone said, "Previously, the surgery was very tense, so we did not dare to ask. We could only take some simple photos. Indeed, we really need the doctors to introduce us."
Yu Yuan nodded and said, "Then, I'll start from what we can see. In our medical terms, it's exposure. This is also a very important step in surgeries where the heart is beating non-stop. Because the heart is beating non-stop, we can't touch the heart, handle the blood vessels around the heart, and so on casually like surgeries that do not involve cardiopulmonary bypass …"
As Yu Yuan spoke, she gestured to the young doctor next to her to move the stepping stool over. She stood on it and gestured to the young doctor to move more stool over. She waved her arms and said, "The cardiac stabilizer Doctor Ling is using now is Medtronic's octopus tissue stabilizer. As you can see, it's now placed at the apex of the heart. By doing so, it's easy to expose the anterior and posterior descending arteries, and to expose other parts, we need some other skills …"
Yu Yuan pointed at the epicardium and said, "The coronary artery stabilizer is placed on the epicardium. This is to stabilize the related areas. Stability is also a very important indicator. Otherwise, when suturing, an unexpected tremor is very likely to cause catastrophic consequences …"
"It sounds like he's borrowing a lot of equipment," a reporter said in a low voice.
Yu Yuan immediately said, "That's right. Heart surgeries that keep beating non-stop are the battlefields for new equipment. The requirements for all kinds of equipment are very high, but correspondingly, how to use them and how to use them well is the job of the clinicians. Currently, there are less than one hundred people in the world who can perform heart bypass surgery at this level. "
The first part of her words had undoubtedly lowered everyone's expectations, especially the reporters. They were already thinking that they could learn how to use equipment. But in the blink of an eye, the "heroic words" of one of the top one hundred in the world immediately washed away the reporters' minds.
"Doctor Yu, can we quote what you said?" The reporter's tone was a little doubtful and excited.
No matter how Yu Yuan answered, their material was already set.
Yu Yuan glanced at Zuo Cidian, nodded, and said, "Yes."
"The skills of Yun Hua Hospital's Department of Cardiovascular Surgery have already reached the top one hundred in the world. Can we understand it this way?"
"There are less than one hundred doctors in the world who are as good as Doctor Ling?"
"What about Doctor Ling's skills? What's his ranking in the country?"
The reporters asked questions one after another, and the operating room instantly became noisy.
Zuo Cidian quickly coughed a few times. "Dear reporters, the surgery is still ongoing, and this is not the time for a press conference. Let Doctor Yu Yuan introduce the surgery to you first. After the surgery is over, we will arrange a special time to answer your questions. The reporters who have finished their interviews can also leave and rest in the lounge outside. "
His words silenced the excited reporters.
At this point in time, who would be willing to rest in the lounge outside?
For most of the media, today's interview was only interesting. But, with the addition of the world's top 100, everyone's interest suddenly skyrocketed.
The reporters who were familiar with Yun Hua Hospital also had a certain impression of Zuo Cidian and Yu Yuan. When they saw their expressions, they knew that they were not lying, and they became even more interested.
Some of the smarter ones even pulled the doctors next to them and asked questions first. Even though there were many doctors in the operating theater now, if they did not hold them back and ask questions during the surgery, it would be very easy for them to not be able to find them after the surgery ended.
"Then, I'll continue." Yu Yuan licked her lips, waited for a few seconds, and said, "Everyone can see that Doctor Ling frequently uses sutures for traction. This traction is also used to fix the heart and expose it. In terms of difficulty, traction is obviously more difficult. If there's a little carelessness, there will be danger. However, similar to the functions of various fixators, traction is also an indispensable step. So, exposure alone is an extremely high requirement for a non-stop beating heart surgery … "
As Yu Yuan spoke, she also became envious.
Yu Xiaoshou knew herself very well. This kind of surgery was something that she, Yu Xiaoshou, would never be able to do in her life. For her, high-level gynecological surgery was something she could imagine, but top-notch cardiovascular surgery was something she had never thought about. If she analyzed it rationally, asking Yu Yuan to be the chief surgeon for high-end cardiovascular surgery was as far away as asking a man to give birth. With the advancement of technology, this regret might be fulfilled one day, but it was definitely not now, and it would not be as easy as eating instant noodles.
However, men might not necessarily want to give birth, and Yu Yuan actually wanted to do high-end surgeries.
It was not an exaggeration to say that all surgeons had dreams of performing surgeries, saving lives, and practicing medicine to help the people. Not everyone became surgeons simply because they wanted to earn money, be a pharmaceutical sales representative, have little power, have good connections, earn a lot of freelance surgery fees, get an endless share of medicine and equipment, have a social status that they could not afford, and enjoy the attention that they could not get.
Kong Wenshan, who had avoided the interview before, was also in a daze.
Before Yu Yuan said something like "top 100 in the world", Kong Wenshan did not realize this problem. But after she said it, Kong Wenshan subconsciously began to think about this problem.
Compared to Yu Yuan, Kong Wenshan, who had been immersed in the field of cardiovascular surgery for twenty years, had a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of the world's cardiovascular surgery.
From his perspective, in terms of clinical skills alone, Yu Yuan's so-called "top 100 in the world" was too conservative.
And this led to a question. What was the ranking of Ling Ran's skills?
Forget about other things, just by looking at the color of the blood vessels during Ling Ran's surgery, the faint pink blood vessels, and even some white and gray blood vessels, it was basically something that could not be seen outside of textbooks.
What did that mean? It meant that some doctors would occasionally achieve such a bloodless surgical field, and then they would quickly take pictures of it and use it when they wrote their own research papers or books. And usually, doctors who could perform such surgeries were basically qualified to write books. Therefore, the pictures of bloodless surgical fields that people usually saw appeared in all kinds of textbooks.
However, normal doctors, and this was talking about the top 100 doctors in the world, under normal circumstances, could not perform bloodless surgical fields just because they wanted to. Those who were ranked higher, such as the top 50 or top 30 doctors, might have a higher probability of doing it, but that probability was only twenty to thirty percent.
Ling Ran performed a public surgery today, and he performed a bloodless surgical field on the spot. Kong Wenshan did not know whether he was lucky, but he knew that with the current state of the surgery, being ranked among the top 100 doctors in the world was really too humble.
There were only a few dozen Cardiovascular Surgery Centers in the world. Among the more than ten or twenty Cardiovascular Surgery Centers, the ones who could create a bloodless surgical field were definitely the ones who played the leading role. Such doctors were rare in every Cardiovascular Surgery Center.
Of course, a bloodless surgical field did not mean everything. Just as Yu Yuan said, further exposure, suturing, traction, anastomosis, and so on, which she did not mention, had different requirements for top-notch doctors, first-class doctors, and ordinary doctors.
However, this made Kong Wenshan even more speechless.
Almost all of Ling Ran's operations were the best in the world. This was no longer a 1 + 1 relationship. It was more like getting full marks for all seven subjects in the college entrance examination, and getting excellent grades for dozens of courses in university. Moreover, it did not matter how difficult it was.
Kong Wenshan did not know what to say, but he felt that this kind of person was not normal!
There must be something wrong when things were abnormal!
Ling Ran was so young, and he was not famous in the field of cardiovascular surgery. Was it normal for him to suddenly rise to such a high position?
There was only one truth.
Kong Wenshan secretly pondered. If that was the case, Ling Ran must have taken drugs!
However, he did not know what drugs he took, and how he used them.
