Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Chapter 1357: 【1357】Focus on wrapping things up



The seniors were laughing together, leaving the medical students quite confused.

This is how doctors are— as long as they can solve the patient's problem, it doesn't matter who's more skilled.

If a large fistula can be solved, a smaller one can be even more so. Place the titanium clips one by one, and clamp them accurately. Of course, there's some technique involved. Director Guan suddenly came forward to help adjust the direction of the titanium clip, which is his expertise.

The experienced director from the hospital was very knowledgeable, and Xie Wanying took the opportunity to learn from him.

Director Guan was happy to communicate with her, saying, "Remember, for fistulas less than one centimeter, you can try clamping them with a titanium clip. If that fails, quickly change methods. Don't be stubborn. For ones larger than a centimeter, you definitely can't rely only on the clip; you'll need to use a nylon loop too. In any case, be adept at using the power of suction to pull up the mucosa, and then clamp or loop it so that the opening can close tightly. I suspect you're more familiar with the rotation angles of the titanium clips than I am."

The instructor was very endearing, straightforwardly admitting to an intern that she might know better.

Listening to this, Xie Wanying's face turned red, and she quickly said, "No, no, teacher, I need to learn from you."

"Sure, you can come to me anytime. I'll find cases for you to practice on. Skill comes with practice," Director Guan readily invited her.

Yu Xuexian glanced over at the others and then at his junior, squinting internally: Just as I thought, someone's recruiting her. Yet she remains completely unaware.

"Once you're done, check again," Yu Xuexian reminded the students with a cool, low voice.

The others on site, hearing his words, found him too indifferent. If the students did well, the teacher should give at least some praise. Instead, Teacher Yu put on a face that seemed heartlessly stern.

Director Guan sighed, thinking if he were the one leading, he'd be happy enough to treat the students to a meal by now.

Shao Jialiang proactively discussed with Wei Guoyuan: "I'm very grateful for their help, and afterward, I'd like to invite them to a meal."

The meal is a small matter; what's most important is being able to exchange techniques during the gathering. However, Wei Guoyuan thought that this Doctor Yu, unlike Doctor Xin, would not be easily appeased.

Not surprisingly, hearing their conversation, Yu Xuexian refused on the spot, saying, "No need. Doctor Wei mentioned that in the future, he'll actively offer his help whenever needed."

"Yes, yes," Wei Guoyuan agreed, expressing that he would definitely follow through on his words.

While the seniors spoke, Xie Wanying focused on performing the final touches alone.

After finishing, the patient needs an imaging test and a CT recheck a month later to confirm if the surgery was successful and whether there are any other fistulas remaining. If not, and healing is good, the esophageal stent can be removed. Before that, it's essential to observe whether the patient can eat smoothly without choking. These details, Shao Jialiang, as the attending physician, went out to explain to the patient's family.

The elderly woman was clever, quickly understanding the key from the doctors' pleasant expressions amidst the medical explanations: "Did Dr. Xie succeed? I knew she could do it."

Some of the patient's family members seem even more prescient than the doctors.

Shao Jialiang had a thought in mind and, to protect the junior, said, "We need to first observe the follow-up situation, don't rush."

The old lady caught the underlying meaning of his words and laughed, "I sought her out to operate on my son, how could I blame her? If there's a fault, it's mine, don't worry. Thank you very much, Dr. Shao."
