Huo Congjun attached great importance to Ling Ran's surgery.
Therefore, although Ling Ran was very familiar with it, he still gave this surgery sufficient respect. The 15-centimeter long S-shaped incision could be said to be sufficient and very respectful.
In contrast, all the doctors, including Huo Congjun, were more shocked. Doctors nowadays were used to having smaller and smaller incisions. The General Surgery Department had evolved from open incisions to small incisions, and then from small incisions to laparoscopes. Even laparoscopes had evolved from needing five incisions to needing at least two incisions.
Laparoscopes began to be widely used in complex thoracic surgeries. The value of a single Da Vinci, which was worth tens of millions, to hospitals, doctors, and patients was that it could make a small incision to perform major surgeries.
Even the mainstream surgical plan for heart bypass surgery had changed from thoracotomy to a small incision under the ribs.
For the leaders and doctors of Yun Hua Hospital, making a 15-centimeter long incision for an Achilles tendon repair was not something they had heard of, but it was also something they had never thought of.
"This … Doctor Ling likes to make large incisions," a chief physician from the Orthopedics Department said with a smile.
"The Zhu-Ling Achilles Repair Technique emphasizes on making large incisions and preserving blood supply." Lu Wenbin finally followed for a while and reluctantly gave an answer.
"Zhu-Ling … If he wants to preserve blood supply, shouldn't he make a small incision? These two are in conflict. "The chief physician of the Orthopedics Department crossed his arms and had a sarcastic look on his face.
Lu Wenbin was instantly speechless. With his level, he would definitely lose in a debate with a chief physician. Lu Wenbin had only been exposed to medicine for ten years since he started medical school, and chief physicians had been exposed to medicine for thirty years. If everyone were to play LOL professionally, it would be equivalent to the director playing LOL from 2009 to 2039, while Lu Wenbin only started playing LOL in 2030. That meant that there were constant updates in between. However, when it came to arguing, the disadvantage was still very obvious.
Moreover, it was the Achilles tendon repair technique that orthopedic doctors were familiar with.
Huo Congjun automatically adjusted the direction of his criticism and said faintly, "If you can't understand, learn well. Liu Weichen was made by Ling Ran with a large incision. Didn't the Kenyan come today to make a large incision too?"
If criticizing people was a skill, Huo Congjun probably started learning it in the eighties, and entered a state of rapid development in the nineties. As for the chief of the orthopedics department, it was fine if he bullied the pharmaceutical sales representatives, but he had no intention of resisting Huo Yao, who was in his complete form.
There was a short period of silence in the operating theater. The only sounds that could be heard were the cameraman's constant mumbling of "handsome, handsome, handsome" and the continuous sound of the shutter shutter.
He was not allowed to turn on the flash, but if it was just taking pictures, the hospital would be more than happy to fill up his SD card.
Of course, the cameraman had brought a lot of SD cards with him. He filled up one SD card after another and had a lot of fun.
On the operating table, Ling Ran's group gradually entered an optimal state.
He had performed the same surgery too many times. As long as he found the right rhythm and did not encounter any special problems, he would be able to perform the surgery very quickly. It was like students born in the 80s were doing the eighth set of radio calisthenics, while students born in the 90s were doing "The Times are Calling".
Even though the surgery was a little complicated and delicate, for geniuses, it was still a radio gymnastics that could be controlled.
"Ma Yanlin, do you want to perform an enhanced suture next?"
Ling Ran suddenly said something in the quiet operating theater.
Ma Yanlin's hands almost trembled.
Was Ling Ran asking a question?
Did he really ask a question?
Ma Yanlin raised his head and looked at Ling Ran's face seriously. It was indeed Ling Ran. Even if a normal person went through plastic surgery, they would not be able to become so handsome.
However, why did such a handsome Doctor Ling Ran have the bad habit of asking questions?
Could it be that he learned it from Shanghai?
Ma Yanlin glared at Yu Yuan. 'Look at you. You sent Doctor Ling over, and you actually learned to ask questions.'
"I think we can use an enhanced suture," Ma Yanlin answered cautiously.
For junior doctors, it was common for senior doctors to ask questions in the operating theater. But after he started working for Ling Ran, Ma Yanlin rarely had this experience, and he was not very familiar with it.
Ling Ran raised the Achilles tendon and showed it to Ma Yanlin. He asked, "Why?"
Ma Yanlin composed himself and thought, 'It seems like I guessed correctly, or else I would have lost my nonexistent dignity in front of so many chief physicians and hospital leaders.'
While Ma Yanlin's thoughts ran wild, he slowly said, "The ruptured end of the patient's Achilles tendon is flat. The current suture mechanism for the gap between the two ends of the Achilles tendon converts the tension of the suture into a diagonal pulling force on the fiber. If we use an enhanced suture, we can increase the tensile strength of the Achilles tendon at both ends …"
He told Ling Ran everything he knew and tried his best to show that he was familiar with the Achilles tendon repair technique.
Ling Ran only listened. His hands did not change. He waited for Ma Yanlin to finish before he said, "We will use a normal suture."
"Ah … why?"
"The fewer the suture, the less the tissue reaction. With the current condition of the Achilles tendon, a normal suture is enough." Ling Ran gave a simple explanation and continued with his work.
Yu Yuan smiled proudly at Ma Yanlin. As doctors who chose to learn the Achilles tendon repair technique, the two of them were obviously competitors.
Ma Yanlin secretly looked at the doctors who were watching from the corner of his eyes. He found that everyone was either whispering to each other or staring at Ling Ran. He could not help but sigh in resignation as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He was just a houseman. Even if he lost his nonexistent dignity, it did not matter.
Huo Congjun, who was also familiar with Ling Ran, began to ponder with great interest.
He could feel that Ling Ran was currently in an extremely self-centered state. This state was just like when he was in the emergency room, dealing with ordinary car accident injuries, dog bites, wife slash wounds, and other emergency cases. Some patients were actually in very dangerous situations, and the doctors themselves were secreting adrenaline madly, so much so that their voices would be a little higher. However, because they had done this so many times, the doctors themselves had formed muscle memory, and their movements were neither fast nor slow.
However, it was not easy for him to be able to remain so calm in front of such a group of high-end doctors from the hospital.
At the very least, it showed that Ling Ran had a big heart.
Nervousness, worry, regret, and taking risks were all emotions that everyone would have. The key was to control them.
The key was to use them for oneself.
However, Huo Congjun did not know that Ling Ran's life was filled with similar experiences.
Other doctors might only be able to frequently come into contact with such public surgeries after they became attending physicians or even associate chief physicians. But Ling Ran had been performing all kinds of public surgeries since he was in kindergarten.
Ling Ran did not care about the ten-man team selected by Huo Congjun at all.
"Yu Yuan, what are you thinking about?" Ling Ran's voice rang out again, and this time, his voice was a little stricter.
Yu Yuan instantly panicked.
"Hold your hands firmly, don't move. Keep your shoulders flat and hold them." Ling Ran operated according to Yu Yuan's size.
Even though Yu Yuan was standing on a stepping stool, it was still a little strenuous for her to cooperate with him in the surgery. However, from another perspective, it was difficult for Yu Yuan to cooperate with a normal doctor.
Ling Ran did not speak again. He quietly performed the surgery for another half an hour, announced the completion of the surgery, and personally sutured the skin before leaving.
The doctors who were watching by the side also lowered their heads and left the operating theater.
"How was it? Everyone? "Huo Congjun smiled outside the door.
"The surgery looked quite refreshing."
"The operation was quite skillful."
"It's good to be young."
Some doctors tried to find words to praise Ling Ran and reluctantly gave him a compliment. For them, it was still a little difficult to give deep compliments.
The chief physician of the Orthopedics Department, Han Chengjiao, pursed his lips, but before more people could speak, he sneered and said, "According to the standards of Achilles tendon repair, it might be good, but I don't believe that this kind of skill can achieve the same effect as Liu Weichen."
As the saying went, people of the same trade were enemies. Han Chengjiao was quite dissatisfied with Ling Ran's brazen invasion of the Orthopedics Department and his further expansion.
If the Emergency Department only carried out an Achilles tendon repair, the Orthopedics Department would not care.
For them, this kind of surgery that did not require prosthetics and could not replace the joint was of little value. Not only did it not bring any benefits, but the recovery time was also very long.
Therefore, when they encountered such patients, it would be fine if the Orthopedics Department did not have a shortage of beds, but if there were a shortage of beds, they would usually persuade them to leave.
Some patients had to use their personal connections to fight for beds in Yun Hua Hospital for such minor illnesses. The reason why the University of Zheng Hospital was known as the first rural hospital in the universe was because they had a lot of beds. They would take in all kinds of illnesses, regardless of whether they had major or minor illnesses. One could imagine the pressure on their peers.
However, the Achilles tendon repair technique had evolved into the field of sports medicine, and it also had Liu Weichen's reputation. Now, there was also the bonus of foreigners performing freelance surgeries. Naturally, the Orthopedics Department would feel unhappy.
"The incision is long, the wound is big, and the suture does not need to be strengthened …" Han Chengjiao pursed his lips, "No matter what reason Ling Ran comes up with, I think there is still a lot of room for discussion about this so-called Zhu Ling Plan's Achilles tendon repair technique. There is no need to praise it too much."
Han Chengjiao was happy with what he said, and he said to Huo Congjun, "The Emergency Department wants to build an Emergency Medical Center, and the Orthopedics Department supports it. But I don't think there is a need to praise a young man for this. It's better to promote you, Huo Congjun, than to promote such a young man."
Huo Congjun's mouth twitched, and he chuckled.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hold it in." Han Chengjiao could not help but feel a little guilty.
Huo Congjun only looked at Han Chengjiao and smiled. After half a minute, he said, "There will be foreign patients coming over tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. We will speak with facts."
Han Chengjiao breathed a sigh of relief, "Speak with facts? Alright, let's speak with facts."
"Yes, let's speak with facts!" Huo Congjun's voice did not increase, but his tone inexplicably increased. "I think, Han Chengjiao, you can also perform a few Achilles tendon repairs. We can put the patients together to recover, and then we can see whose patients recover better. Why did the Emergency Department carry out the Achilles tendon repair technique? It's all because the Orthopedics Department can't perform Achilles tendon repair … "
"When have we ever been procrastinating … No, the Emergency Department didn't start performing Achilles tendon repair because of us, right?"
"How many Achilles tendon repair patients did I send over last year? How many of them were referred by you? You don't perform Achilles tendon repair yourself, but you don't let others do it? You're just standing in the manger. " Huo Congjun spat, smiled at the others, and said, "I'm sorry, my words were a little crude. Let me restate what I mean."
Huo Congjun cleared his throat and said to Han Chengjiao, "From tomorrow onwards, I will send an Achilles tendon repair patient to the Orthopedics Department every day. If you can perform it, do it. If you can't, just admit defeat. At that time, we can write a comparison report … I reckon that the sports medicine experts in the country and abroad will still be interested in the comparison between the ordinary Achilles tendon repair technique and the Zhu-Ling Achilles Repair Technique."
"Who wants to compete with you in this? I have a lot of things to do …" Han Chengjiao's voice had already lowered. He had a lot of things to say, but he wisely held them back.
He had plenty of things to say when it came to empty discussions, but if he really made such a comparison, it would not just be embarrassing.
Huo Congjun chuckled, and Han Chengjiao felt goosebumps all over his body, as if he was being targeted by a fat wild boar covered in hedgehog fur.
"The patient tomorrow's medical fees will still be reduced, and the patient the day after tomorrow will be charged at full price. He's even a professional track and field athlete from Kenya … International medicine will definitely be the trend of development in the future. I hope that the Emergency Department of Yun Hua Hospital and the future Emergency Medical Center will be at the forefront of Changxi Province and even the country." Huo Congjun made an appointment for the next match, and it really attracted everyone's interest.
