"Doctor Ling thinks that this incision is suitable. What do you think?" Wei Jiayou suddenly asked as he watched the surgery progress.
Yu Yuan tiptoed, and she was tired. She landed and pointed at herself in surprise. "Are you asking me?"
"Of course." Wei Jiayou looked around and only nodded at Associate Chief Physician Deng's flattering smile.
Even so, Associate Chief Physician Deng of the General Surgery Department was very happy. He was Academician Di's disciple, and he was Academician Di's unofficial disciple. He took in another disciple after he wandered to Changxi Province. If one were to describe him in a martial arts novel, he would be an outer sect disciple, and there was a huge difference between him and Wei Jiayou, who was a closed disciple.
Moreover, because of their relationship, Wei Jiayou would call him and ask him to make arrangements, but he did not need to give him any benefits or be nice to him.
Wei Jiayou paid more attention to Yu Yuan than he did to Associate Chief Physician Deng.
Yu Yuan had always been interested in theoretical questions. When she heard Wei Jiayou's question, she could not help but tilt her head and think about it. Like a mushroom that grew crooked, she replied, "I think that if the skills are up to par, of course, a small incision is more suitable."
"Heh … You're young." Wei Jiayou could not help but use Academician Di's words to comment on Yu Yuan.
"What do you mean?" Yu Yuan puffed up her cheeks like a mushroom that was soaked in water.
"A small incision is equivalent to increasing the difficulty. Skills up to par? You haven't even cut the patient's abdominal cavity, so how do you know that your skills are up to par? Hepatectomy, even if it's not as critical as cardiovascular surgery, is not something that can be done casually … "
"Based on what you said, everyone should not do surgery with small incisions. They should all do large incisions."
"That's why I said that you're young. Young doctors like small incisions because they can prove their skills. Senior doctors … The most important thing for senior doctors is to prevent mistakes." When Wei Jiayou said this, he paused for a moment, thought about it, and added, "You have to know that at the beginning of the surgery, no one will think that you're weak if the incision is a little bigger. But if you realize that the incision is too small in the middle of the surgery and reopen it, everyone will know that your previous judgment was wrong …"
Yu Yuan was speechless. She blinked and looked at Wei Jiayou. "I didn't expect a ginseng baby like you to have so many thoughts. You're actually Dangshen, right?"
Wei Jiayou had a lot of things to say, but he could not spit them out. In the end, he shook his head helplessly. "In short, everyone makes a standard incision for safety. Hepatectomy is a very risky surgery, and anything can happen. If the patient sues you, you won't be able to clear your name even if you have a lot of mouths."
Yu Yuan seemed to be deep in thought, but she nodded.
Wei Jiayou couldn't help but smile. "What I said makes sense, right?"
"At the end of the day, you just don't have the confidence to perform hepatectomy, do you?" Yu Yuan's gaze showed that she had seen through him, understood him, and sympathized with him.
Wei Jiayou's heart ached, and he said firmly, "I've never lacked confidence when it comes to surgeries."
"All the sentence patterns you said are wrong." Yu Yuan pursed her lips in disdain. This time, she felt like a reviewer.
"The left and right coronary ligaments need to be removed." Ling Ran reminded them. Then, he paused for a moment and waited for the assistants to react before he continued with the excision.
Wei Jiayou's gaze froze when he heard that. He said in a low voice, "It's not easy to remove the coronary ligament with such a small incision."
Yu Yuan was only weak in physical skills, but she was still good in theory. At this moment, her expression became slightly serious.
The so-called coronal plane was the cross-section of the human body that was cut from the left and right sides. As for the coronary ligament, it was on the coronal plane of the liver, and it was basically perpendicular to the patient's peritoneum. In other words, when a doctor operated on a patient in a horizontal position, he could not look directly at the entire coronary ligament.
If it was a conventional large incision, there would be many ways to deal with it, but Ling Ran made a small incision today.
Yu Yuan could not help but look at Ling Ran worriedly.
At this moment, Ling Ran's expression was … inquisitive?
Yu Yuan took a closer look, and she was right. Ling Ran actually … found it interesting?
Ling Ran indeed found it interesting.
He had some speculations about the condition of the coronary ligament when he looked at the scans before this, but he could only see the specific condition when the patient's abdominal cavity was really opened.
This was also the most difficult part of today's surgery.
Ling Ran still liked this kind of challenge.
If the incision was small, an even smaller incision could be made in a hepatectomy under the laparoscope. However, on one hand, Bazhaixiang did not have this condition. On the other hand, hepatectomy with a small incision was, after all, intuitive, and had its own characteristics.
For Ling Ran, this was also a surgery with a small incision, which was quite rare.
From a certain perspective, this was also a surgery that Ling Ran wanted to do, but rarely had the chance to do.
There was a little problem in such a surgery, and it gave Ling Ran the feeling that he had discovered a surprise while he was enjoying a good meal.
He was not in a hurry, and he just continued to do it slowly.
He would pull the retractor, disconnect the retractor, and block the retractor …
If he did not look at the scene on the operating table and only looked at Ling Ran's hands, he might think that this young man was really good at cooking.
When he looked at the operating table, he would then notice Ling Ran's actual operation and the actual difficulties he faced, and it would give him a different feeling.
"The coronary ligament has been removed," Ling Ran reminded him again. He checked for a moment and said, "Now, we'll temporarily stop blocking the blood flow."
As he spoke, Ling Ran removed the forceps.
Wei Jiayou's eyebrows twitched, and he became more focused.
"Bazhaixiang is still very suitable for hepatectomy with a small incision, right?" When Yu Yuan saw this, she relaxed, and she turned her head to look at the ginseng baby.
Wei Jiayou did not want to show weakness, and he argued, "Hmm … but its applicability is still not as good as laparoscopy. It's also not as safe as hepatectomy with a large incision … "
"So, it's the most suitable," Yu Yuan said and snorted. "Besides, you haven't noticed something."
"What?" Wei Jiayou quickly thought hard and guessed what he had missed.
Yu Yuan smiled and said, "Hepatectomy with a small incision is the cheapest."
Wei Jiayou was speechless. "Do you lack that little bit of money?"
"I don't know about other places, but many of the residents in Bazhaixiang are poor." Yu Yuan paused for a moment and said, "Of course, the most important thing is to save lives and treat illnesses."
"Right …" Wei Jiayou said, but he lowered his voice.
Even if he was just talking about saving lives, the hepatectomy that he had thought about would not be of much use.
"Surgical thread." Ling Ran's voice rose again, and it pulled Wei Jiayou back to his senses.
"Suturing a small incision … Every surgery has its own difficulty." Wei Jiayou looked at Yu Yuan while he simulated it with his hands.
