"The meniscus has a longitudinal tear, and the posterior horn is also torn. The situation is more serious.
"There is also an ACL injury, which is more serious.
"The old injury is also more serious."
Ling Ran asked Lu Wenbin to open the MRI scan and explained it to Lu Wenbin and Yu Yuan.
This surgery was really small. There were still six knee arthroscopy surgeries to be carried out together today. It was impossible to make complete preoperative preparations like hepatectomy. There was also no need for it, because it was impossible for the surgeons to remember all the preparations and explanations in advance, and it was even easier for them to make mistakes.
For knee arthroscopy surgeries for non-athletes, the routine was basically the same, because the internal structure of the knee was also simple. Of course, there were good and bad surgeries, but it was also not easy to completely break down.
Of course, as a patient, Captain Chu did not have it so easy.
Captain Chu, who had chosen regional anesthesia, sat on the cold operating table with his legs hanging down and a green drape covering his knees. If this was the riverside and he was a young and beautiful girl, such a scene would probably be a bit beautiful.
However, if he were an old policeman with a tanned face sitting in the operating theater, this scene would not be romantic at all.
"This knee of mine is usually fine." When Captain Chu heard all kinds of "serious" words, he felt so guilty that he was like a smuggler being searched by dogs.
Lu Wenbin said with a serious expression, "Your knee is like a house, and a normal person's knee is a normal house. The steel frame and cement are all neat and tidy. If the meniscus of the knee joint is injured, it's like the ceiling of a room collapsing. As for your knee joint … It's like it's supported by ruins. You can live in it, but you know how the living conditions are. "
Captain Chu suddenly felt bitter, but he was unwilling to admit it. He forced a joke and said, "You're saying it's so serious … You want to pay more during the surgery, right? Let me tell you, I'm a police officer, and it's illegal to pay more during the surgery."
The three doctors looked at Captain Chu, but they did not laugh.
"Let him sleep." Ling Ran felt that Captain Chu was a little long-winded.
"It's good to sleep, it's good to sleep." Captain Chu also felt that the atmosphere was too uncomfortable. He watched the anesthetist squeeze a tube of medicine in, and while his brain was still functioning, he quickly said, "Doctor Ling, there are many members in our police force who have knee joints damaged. If you treat me, I'll send them to you, and I won't take any commission …"
Lu Wenbin stole a glance at Ling Ran, bent down, and whispered to Yu Yuan, "He's quite smart."
…
Captain Chu opened his eyes and yawned. He reached out to the side of his head to take out his phone. After touching it three times, he still couldn't find it. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He sat up abruptly, and the bed creaked as he struggled.
"You just finished surgery, remember?" Su Jiafu rode over on a stool, like Dumbledore riding a broom.
Captain Chu scratched his head and looked at Su Jiafu before he came to a realization. "Right, I had surgery."
"Yeah, the surgery was quite successful. I'll give you a test." Su Jiafu stood lazily in front of Captain Chu. As an anesthetist who often performed anesthesia on hepatectomy patients, Su Jiafu was now very confident. To put it in layman's terms, Doctor Su Jiafu was currently in a period of arrogance, and he did not really care about anesthesia such as knee arthroscopy.
Su Jiafu did the check-up step by step. He nodded again and said to Captain Chu, "You stay for another hour and go back. You seem to be recovering well."
"You're not going to the ward?"
"I'll send all of you over later." Su Jiafu pursed his lips and gestured to both sides.
Captain Chu looked at both sides, and only then did he notice that there were people lying on the few beds that were very close to each other.
The recovery room in the Operating Area was not like a ward, and it even had triple or quadruple beds. The recovery room was a room, and the distance between the beds was more than three feet. When it was busy, there were also ten beds. Anyway, there was an anesthetist watching over them, and at most, there were two anesthetists. As long as nothing went wrong, it would be fine.
The consciousness of the patients who had just woken up was not worth looking forward to. Fortunately, they were all people who had just undergone surgery, and they could basically lie on the bed obediently. The task of the recovery room was to watch them wake up normally, and then send them out.
Captain Chu closed his eyes and rested for a few minutes. When he opened his eyes again, he asked the person next to him out of professional habit, "What surgery did you have?"
"Knee arthroscopy." The patient on the bed next to him was about forty or fifty years old. He rubbed his head as if he had a headache.
"You also received general anesthesia?" Captain Chu also rubbed his head.
"Yes."
"Why did you receive general anesthesia for knee arthroscopy?" Captain Chu was a little curious and asked casually.
When they talked about this topic, the patient next to him was a little unhappy and said, "I heard that the previous surgery was done by an idiot, and he seemed to be a police officer or something. He talked too much, and it affected the doctor's surgery. After that, they all asked for general anesthesia."
Captain Chu subconsciously shrank his neck.
"General anesthesia is good. I don't feel anything. What about you?" The person next to him seemed to have started talking.
"More or less. I fell asleep too."
As they spoke, another patient was sent in and placed on the other side of Captain Chu.
"Knee arthroscopy, too?" Captain Chu could be considered to have gained some experience after observing until now.
The nurse anesthetist connected the patient to the ECG monitor and said, "Doctor Ling mainly performs knee arthroscopy today. There may be more patients sent over later."
"So many in one go?"
"It's a normal number." The anesthetist did not explain much. Nowadays, there were more and more patients who came to Doctor Ling for surgery because of his reputation. For knee arthroscopy, he could perform it for a whole day in ten days to half a month.
However, Ling Ran would not really perform it for a whole day.
For him now, the difficulty of knee arthroscopy was too low. It was a little like asking a professional athlete to kick an unguarded penalty kick. There were still situations where the kick would fly, but most of the time, the possibility of a mistake was too low.
For Ling Ran, knee arthroscopy was not as challenging as staying up late to perform surgeries.
It was mainly because knee arthroscopy had a narrow skill path. If there was no temptation in front of him, he would not have enough motivation to chase after it.
Ling Ran finished his surgeries for the day by dinnertime. He handed over the work and went home.
In the parking lot, a Rolls-Royce was parked next to Ling Ran's small Volkswagen Jetta.
When she saw Ling Ran arrive, the door of the Rolls-Royce opened, and a young girl ran out. Then, she went to the bus opposite and banged on the door.
A few seconds later, Tian Qi walked down from the bus and explained a little embarrassedly, "There's more space in the RV. By the way, Ling Ran, why did you get off work so early today?"
"I'm done with knee arthroscopy today." Ling Ran shrugged.
"Then go barbecue. Your cow is already fat." Tian Qi widened her eyes and stared at Ling Ran.
"Alright, let's go barbecue." Ling Ran nodded and agreed.
