The ECG monitor was flashing, and it looked a bit like an old light box in a KTV.
The German-made anesthesia ventilator was thrown aside, and no one used it.
Naldo had an indwelling needle attached to him. He was breathing rapidly as he stared at the ground. His head was facing down, but his crotch was raised because the operating table was shaking, and it formed a folding knife position.
The person who was lying down was folded into the shape of a triangle, and that was the folding knife position.
Ling Ran looked around the operating table, and he especially checked the cloth wrapping around Naldo's limbs to prevent him from being scalded by the endotherm knife during the surgery.
After a careful examination, Ling Ran ordered again, "Anesthetize him."
Ma Yanlin went up with a serious expression.
Ling Ran took out the examination form, opened it, and looked at it.
The examination form was handwritten and translated. The contents of the examination included routine liver and kidney function, urine routine, stool routine, and so on. The specific examination was carried out by helicopter, and the samples were checked again. Then, they were informed by satellite phone.
Ling Ran could only operate according to the situation when he did not have the corresponding conditions for previous surgeries. Now that there was a short window, although it was not enough to transport all the patients out, he could bring more samples out.
Based on Ling Ran's habit, even if it was hemorrhoid surgery, he would still want to do a few more examinations.
"Let's start." Ling Ran looked at the number on the ECG monitor. He did not need to confirm with Ma Yanlin.
The two doctors present were both experienced anesthetists, and it was meaningless to confirm with each other.
Ling Ran turned his head, pointed at the stainless steel plate, and said, "Large curved hemostatic forceps."
"Yes." The nurse quickly handed the hemostatic forceps to Ling Ran.
If it was a normal operating theater, the steps indicated would naturally be omitted, and even the instruments would not have to be called out. For routine surgeries, the nurses might be more familiar with the instruments than the doctors.
Today, Guozheng Charity Hospital did not have such conditions. The only nurse had a language barrier problem, and she had never participated in hemorrhoid surgery. Guozheng Charity Hospital did not have a full range of services, and the types of surgeries the nurses in the operating theater were exposed to were even more limited.
Ling Ran used the large curved hemostatic forceps to clamp down on the hemorrhoid.
Ma Yanlin looked at the distorted hemorrhoid the size of a goose egg, and the corners of his eyes could not help but twitch. "The impact is really strong."
"Thread 7." Ling Ran remained unmoved. He still did not have the intention to chat. He took the threaded thread and quickly made a figure-eight interrupted suture on the top of the forceps. Then, he made a ligation.
"Saber." Ling Ran ordered another scalpel and cut the skin along the lower part of the large curved hemostatic forceps. He then made a V-shaped incision all the way to the tooth line …
Ling Ran had never pursued small incisions.
During the surgery, Ling Ran always considered more things and tended to be more cautious. This made him more willing to make larger incisions.
And when faced with a female hemorrhoid the size of a goose egg, it was impossible for Ling Ran to make a small incision …
"Scissors." Ling Ran threw down the scalpel and asked for a pair of scissors with his right hand. He grabbed the hemostatic forceps with his left hand and lifted the external hemorrhoid.
In short, what Ling Ran was doing right now was to remove a sarcoma the size of a goose egg from the patient's anus and try his best to minimize the damage to the relevant parts.
There were actually many similar surgical maneuvers. Some people had acne or cysts on their faces, and they were also removed in a similar manner. The difference was that the hemorrhoids were usually bigger, and it was not easy to look in the mirror, so it was not good for observation …
For doctors, the nature of the hemorrhoids was similar. At most, the incidence of hemorrhoids was higher.
After the female hemorrhoid the size of a goose egg was removed, Ling Ran performed a figure-eight suture in the base. Most of the surgery was considered completed. Next, he carefully dealt with the other female hemorrhoids … Ma Yanlin, who had nothing to do, was still looking at the "goose egg" …
"You'll finish up." Ling Ran did not intend to continue.
Hemorrhoid surgery had always been the most basic surgery, and the location of the hemorrhoid was not fatal. From a surgeon's perspective, it could be said to be the lowest of the low.
If it were not for the fact that there were enough people who got hemorrhoids, most large hospitals would not even bother to carry out this kind of surgery.
Ling Ran felt that hemorrhoid surgery was quite suitable for Ma Yanlin to practice his skills.
In Ling Ran's treatment group, Ma Yanlin's skills were slightly inferior to Lu Wenbin and Zhang Anmin, but that was mainly because he lacked experience. At the end of the day, the three of them were ordinary people among the medical elites. They were at the level of resident doctors or attending physicians that were commonly seen in tertiary Grade A hospitals. If they were taught more carefully and had more opportunities to practice, they would be able to perform better. On the other hand, they would naturally become mediocre.
However, there was also competition within the treatment group.
Ma Yanlin's skills were the weakest, so he could fight for the least opportunities. This was especially true when he was often the second or third assistant, which was not good for him to develop his decisiveness.
Simple surgeries like hemorrhoid surgery were more suitable for Ma Yanlin right now.
Or Yu Yuan …
Ling Ran gave up his position and could not help but think.
Ma Yanlin stood over, a little unaccustomed to it. He began to cut off the stump of the ligation, trimmed the incision, and stopped the bleeding …
Ma Yanlin broke out in cold sweat. He did not know whether it was because he was tired or because of something else.
Ling Ran guided and watched by the side. When he saw Ma Yanlin put a gauze strip in Vaseline to drain the blood, he felt at ease and left the operating theater.
Selena vigilantly followed Ling Ran and left.
The corridor of Guozheng Charity Hospital was quiet and peaceful.
Outside the window, it was raining cats and dogs again, but the people who stayed in the hospital felt much more at ease.
Although the two hours when the rain stopped was not long, and the helicopters that came and went only transported three injured people and two old and frail people away, it brought hope after suffering was over.
The atmosphere in the hospital instantly turned into a party.
When the threat of death was gone, the desire to live and live became stronger.
"Doctor Ling, you're done with the surgery. Was it successful?" Another patient's family member swaggered over.
Ling Ran nodded. "The surgery was successful."
"Hmm … After the hemorrhoids were removed, it doesn't hurt anymore, right?"
"If there's pain after the surgery, use painkillers. Usually, there will be obvious changes after 48 hours." Ling Ran thought about it and said, "Now, we encourage people to defecate after 24 hours, and keep urinary catheterization for 48 hours …" While Ling Ran explained, Selena translated for him.
The patient's family member hesitated when he heard it.
Selena was anxious when she saw this and said, "If you have something to say, just say it quickly. Doctor Ling is very busy …"
"My hemorrhoids are acting up too." The patient's family member sighed and said, "It's been raining for the past few days, and I have nothing to do, so I can only sit …"
"Are you going to perform surgery?" Ling Ran did not pay much attention to the patient's family member's state, and he could not help but frown.
"Can I perform surgery?"
"It depends on the condition of your lesion." Ling Ran paused for a moment and said, "Or you can wait for the road to be cleared and go to a regular hospital outside for surgery."
The patient's family member shook his head. "I queued up for two months last year, but I didn't get a surgery. I don't want to wait anymore. Doctor Ling, please take a look at me …"
After he said that, he said in a low voice, "We have a few other patients."
Amidst the soft coughs, another three men swayed their legs and moved out from a corridor.
Ling Ran nodded slightly, turned around, and said to Selena, "Let Ma Yanlin come over for consultation."
