In the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Chief Cheng Qian was also watching the surgery.
Was this a joke? Cheng Qian did not understand why they found a pair of twin sisters to perform anesthesia.
Could it be that the success rate of the surgery would be increased if the twins were anesthetized? This was simply a witch doctor. It was a joke!
Cheng Qian's heart was cold. He still could not understand why the hospital would agree to Little Zheng's nonsense. Yes, in his heart, this was nonsense.
The world's top children's hospital had sentenced these two children to death. Did they have to hit the wall before they knew how to turn back?
The twin sisters were so young. At first glance, it was obvious that they had just graduated or even not graduated yet.
They did not even know if they had passed the housemanship period, yet they had to undertake such an important surgery!
It was simply unreasonable.
Cheng Qian had countless questions, endless resentment, and endless anger in his heart.
He silently looked at the figures on the screen. The twins obviously had a very high tacit understanding. One was on the left, and the other was on the right, like mirror images.
Between them, in the two ventilators, a middle-aged anesthetist in his forties kept looking at the values on the ventilator and monitor.
He did not know this person either. Cheng Qian could imagine that it must be Little Zheng who had brought his entire medical team to perform this impossible surgery.
Not only did they snatch the right to perform the surgery, but they also wanted to snatch the anesthesia away.
The anger in Cheng Qian's heart grew even stronger. This was simply a kind of contempt for the women's and children's hospital.
The legendary Little Zheng was very arrogant. It turned out that it was really like this.
"Doctor Cheng, what is this?" Doctor Daina Sterling came to Cheng Qian's side at some point. When she saw the image on the screen, she was also a little surprised.
"Professor Daina, I told you before that this surgery will be performed by this year's Nobel Prize candidate, Doctor Zheng. This should be the anesthetist in his medical team … "Cheng Qian's voice was a little dry.
"It's really Doctor Zheng, a tenured professor at Massachusetts General Hospital. I recently heard that Mayo Clinic also wants to hire him as a tenured professor," Doctor Daina Sterling said.
Mayo Clinic, wait, Mayo Clinic?! Cheng Qian was stunned. When did Mayo Clinic hire Boss Zheng as a tenured professor?
"Did you watch the liver transplant surgery a few days ago? There was also a live broadcast of the new surgery to treat advanced dilated cardiomyopathy, "Doctor Daina Sterling asked.
"No," Cheng Qian replied.
"I should take a look. Although it's not a pediatric surgery, there are still similarities in the technique. The surgery was done very well. It was Dr. Charles who requested it. I think the invitation letter will be sent out soon, "Dr. Dana Sterling said calmly.
"Ms. Dana, do you think the operation will be successful?"
"No," Dr. Sterling shook her head and said firmly.
She looked at the screen. The conjoined twins had been carried to the operating table and anesthetized.
"Although I admit that Doctor Zheng's surgical skills are very high, this surgery is not a test for him." Dr. Sterling said, "It's a perfect intubation. Dr. Zheng seems to have evaluated the difficulty of this surgery."
"Unfortunately, it's useless. Even if we get a pair of twin anesthesiologists, we won't be able to complete the surgery. "
After listening to Miss Daina's final evaluation, Cheng Qian was silent.
He hoped that the operation would be successful, but science was science, and it would not be changed by human will.
After 12 ′ 22 ″, the surgery began.
The shadowless lamp was very bright. The Women's and Children's Hospital had only recorded the whole process of the surgery. It was not as professional as the live broadcast room of Xinglin Garden.
Even so, the general situation was very clear. The three cameras had a bird's eye view of the entire scene and took care of the details.
The surgery started with laparotomy. It was methodical and unhurried. Dr. Sterling had a vague smile on her face, as if she was mocking the Nobel Prize candidate. No matter how successful the hepatectomy was, it would not affect the outcome of the surgery at all.
However, after 15 ′ 06 seconds, the smile on Dr. Sterling's face froze.
If this surgery was performed at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, at least two teams of surgeons would be needed. Regardless of whether it was the liver or the heart, different surgeons would be needed to complete the surgery.
However, Dr. Zheng had completed the surgery with only one team! Could it be that they were going to cross over to pediatric surgery and occupy two specialties, cardiothoracic surgery and general surgery?!
The most surprising thing was that the liver had been separated after only ten minutes. According to Dr. Sterling's prediction, the surgery would take at least 50 minutes.
Dr. Zheng's surgery was more powerful than she had imagined. He even solved all the problems on the operating table in an unparalleled manner.
Doctor Daina Sterling's back left the chair. She straightened her back and stared at the screen without blinking.
They were going to open the chest.
They were going to open the chest and explore the connected heart.
The holographic simulation technology had perfectly displayed everything in front of Dr. Sterling and Dr. Cheng Qian.
Dr. Cheng Qian's palms were full of sweat when he saw the actual situation.
No one spoke. It was so quiet that he could almost hear the voices coming from the screen and his own heartbeat.
Cheng Qian felt his heart beating violently. His body trembled involuntarily, pounding non-stop.
As the chest surgery began, Cheng Qian became more and more nervous. He wanted to take a look around to ease his emotions. They were about to reach the point that Philadelphia could not pass. Whether the surgery was successful or not, they would have to know.
Only then did he notice that Department Chief Han of the cardiothoracic surgery department was standing in the assistant's position, while Boss Zheng's assistant was acting as the second surgeon.
Cheng Qian had long lost the energy to complain. Adrenaline and dopamine were surging in his body, and his legs were trembling slightly.
After the examination, it was found that the conjoined twins' pericardium was also together. Boss Zheng opened the pericardium, and the donor heart appeared in the surgical field.
The two small hearts were beating happily, or rather, in a panic. Their frequencies were completely different. This could be judged from the numbers on the ventilator and monitor in the upper right corner of the screen.
The heart rate of the big pair was 162 beats per minute, and the heart rate of the small pair was 123 beats per minute. The arterial pressure monitoring system faithfully displayed the objective numbers.
What should he do next? Cheng Qian held his breath and watched carefully.
Boss Zheng did not make any special movements. He was only doing the preliminary work of separating the atrium, step by step.
At the same time, the twin anesthesiologists who had been standing by the head of the child were operating simultaneously.
Cheng Qian knew that they were adjusting the amount of drugs pumped into the intravenous channel.
Their movements were synchronized, and it felt wonderful. If this was any other surgery, Cheng Qian would still be in the mood to appreciate the beauty. However, this was a surgery that would almost certainly lead to death!
"Oh my god! How did they do it? "Dr. Sterling suddenly murmured.
