The average surgery time for combined liver and pancreatic radical surgery was more than six hours according to the records in Changxi Province.
But Ling Ran was even slower.
Over the past six months, Ling Ran's average surgery time had increased by a large margin.
When he only had Master Level Hepatectomy, Ling Ran basically took less than three hours to perform a hepatectomy. If he was fast and the patient's physical condition was suitable, he would be able to completely remove the liver in an hour.
However, as Ling Ran obtained Perfect Level Tissue Separation and continued leveling up on his own until he reached Perfect Level Hepatectomy, Ling Ran's surgery time steadily decreased.
This was because the more skills he mastered, the more he had control over the details, and it would take more time to handle the details.
It was just like a small blood vessel. It would take Ling Ran's endotherm knife to freeze it, bypass it, and suture it. It all depended on how Ling Ran handled it.
And in this kind of surgery, there were very few doctors who could choose freely.
Combined liver and pancreatic radical surgery required two doctors to work together. It was impossible for them to not make any mistakes. If they did not make any minor mistakes and did not make any major mistakes, they would be able to carry out the surgery. The rest of the surgery depended on the patient to struggle for his own life, and that was already very rare.
Compared to the difficulty of building a house, the difficulty of subtotal gastrectomy was at the level of a person building a brick house. Those who were good at it could build a beam and pay attention to the window tiles. Those who were not particular about it could just build a matchbox-style brick house, and they could also be considered to have built it.
Hepatectomy was like building a two-story or three-story building. No matter how crude it was, there was still a need to pay attention to the standard. If one wanted to do it well, the upper limit would be very high. It would not be strange for them to win a design award.
Combined liver and pancreatic radical surgery was equivalent to building a building complex. The lower limit was difficult for ordinary people to reach, let alone the upper limit.
There were very few doctors who could watch a complete hepatectomy and gastrectomy.
It was too time-consuming. Besides, if they watched it for too long, the excitement would fade, and the surgery would become boring.
On the contrary, doctors like the department director of the General Surgery Department would be more interested in watching the surgery later on.
The doctors in the visitation room came and went, and they came and went again. They always maintained a certain number of people in the visitation room, but only when there were very few people would Yu Yuan show up.
Every time this happened, Yu Yuan would proudly raise her chin and introduce the situation below to the newcomers. She was like a dwarf wolf in a pack of wolves lecturing the newcomers.
"From the current literature, positive vascular tumor thrombus, positive lymph node, serosal invasion, peritoneal metastasis, and timing of liver metastasis are all high-risk factors that affect the prognosis of liver metastasis …"
"Follow-up results of some patients with liver metastases from gastric cancer show that the median survival rate after surgical treatment is usually only 18 to 20 months. However, once the patient survives past 20 months, the survival time will increase significantly …"
"The size of the metastases in the liver will also have a greater impact on the surgery and the prognosis when they are more than three inches. Hmm, Doctor Ling has basically finished treating the liver …"
Yu Yuan kept introducing the dishes, but she was not annoying at all. As the surgery progressed, she introduced more about the situation in the literature and information, and even the department directors might not necessarily know about these things.
The refinement of modern medicine caused most doctors to only specialize in their own small field. Normal doctors would not read the related literature carefully if it was not a surgery that they often performed, a surgery that was not a surgery that they were trying to climb up the skill tree, or a surgery plan that was not popular.
Everyone's time was precious. Normal people still needed to sleep at night.
At this time, the doctors felt quite good as they watched the surgery and listened to Yu Yuan's general introduction. They even felt that the trip was not in vain, and they did not waste their time.
When it was time for dinner, crispy buns were served one after another. The pure smell of wheat strengthened everyone's impression.
"Everyone, you've worked hard. This is made by Yunli Medical Company's own chef. Please enjoy it. If you're free, please give us your comments." Mai Chun entered the visitation room, and as usual, she smiled before she said anything. She immediately showed the characteristics of a pharmaceutical sales representative.
Some of the doctors ate their buns with a smile, some ate their buns with a serious expression, and some frowned as they ate their buns …
Mai Chun was used to the doctors' mentality. She still had a smile on her face, but she secretly pouted and thought, 'If you're so capable, don't eat my buns!'
Huo Congjun also pressed the call button and asked, "Ling Ran, do you want to take a break and eat something?"
"No need, I'll be done soon," Ling Ran answered calmly, and his hands did not stop moving.
"Oh … Hmm? Are you almost done? "Huo Congjun only realized that something was wrong after he answered.
"About … one more hour." The unit of time Ling Ran gave was obviously a little different from others.
Huo Congjun could not help but laugh. He could only nod, pressed the button again, and said, "Follow your rhythm."
Huo Congjun was not worried about whether his assistants could eat and whether they were hungry.
Doctors were world-class unhealthy people. It was very common for them to not eat on time and overeat.
The department director of the General Surgery Department did not mind. He smiled and pointed at Yu Yuan. "Continue, you'll be the side dish. Hmm, Old Huo, your Emergency Medical Center has recently received a lot of good seedlings. "
"Doctor Yu can't be considered a seedling anymore." Huo Congjun smiled. "After being a chief resident, she should be promoted to an attending physician."
The department director of the General Surgery Department hummed in acknowledgment, but a doctor beside him chuckled and said, "She's still not a seedling?"
…..
The doctors in the visitation room changed two more times, and Ling Ran only wrapped up the surgery when it was close to night.
At this time, his assistants had already changed once.
However, because of the difficulty of the surgery and the ability of the assistants, the surgery today could only be performed by the third and fourth assistants, and the first and second assistants. Therefore, when the surgery was over, everyone was hungry.
"Quick, get something to eat."
"Is there anything to eat?"
"Pork trotters? Are there any pork trotters? "
A few assistants walked out of the operating theater and reached the waiting room at their fastest pace. All of them were so hungry that their eyes were red and their feet were numb.
They were all tensed up, showing their teeth, and their eyes were red. They were shining with the light of desire for food …
The young chef in the waiting room looked at them and was a little hesitant. "Aren't you going to perform surgery?"
"Nonsense, where's the pork trotters? Where's my braised meat? "Lu Wenbin asked as he rummaged through the kitchen.
The young chef quietly grabbed the handle of a pan and said coldly, "Old Lu, I'll ask you a question. Think about your answer carefully. Did you get infected by anything unclean during the surgery? "
