Chapter 1535 Are You the only One Who Calls Me Teacher Xiao? Lin Yi Asks for Help
In the afternoon, Zhou Chen came to the rooftop of the hospital.
There is an open-air basketball court on the rooftop of the heart center. Because the rooftop is surrounded by wire mesh, even if you play basketball here, you don’t have to worry about the basketball flying out. It is very safe.
This basketball court is prepared for the hospital staff. During the afternoon break and the evening break, people will come here to play basketball and exercise.
It has been more than a month since he came to Dongli Hospital, and this is his first time to come to this rooftop basketball court.
When he came to the basketball court, there were already five people wearing jerseys playing on the basketball court. Everyone was amateur, and the game was just so-so.
Zhou Chen sat down on a chair nearby, opened the bottle of mineral water, took a sip, and his eyes fell on one of them involuntarily.
You are the old Xiao from the laboratory!
Several people playing basketball are doctors, one of whom is the attending physician of the cardiology department, and he also knows Zhou Chen. Seeing Zhou Chen sitting there for a while, he took the initiative to invite him.
"Director Zhou, do you want to join us? With you, there are exactly six of us. Let's play three against three?"
Then, he introduced to several of his teammates: "This is Zhou Chen from the Department of Cardiac Surgery. Director Zhou, you must know him."
When they heard this person's introduction, the other players all showed an expression of "it turns out to be him".
Now Zhou Chen is very famous in Dongli Hospital. Even if the staff in the hospital have never seen him, they have heard of his name and are naturally willing to get to know Zhou Chen.
"Director Zhou, let's play together."
"Yes, Director Zhou, with you, three against three, just right."
"Director Zhou, you're sitting anyway, come up and play."
Zhou Chen smiled at them and said, "I'm a little good at playing basketball, I'm afraid I'll scare you."
"What?"
The players on the court were all stunned. They had never dealt with Zhou Chen before. Is this guy so arrogant?
Liu Borui, the only one who was familiar with Zhou Chen, was also stunned.
In his impression, Zhou Chen is a kind of person with a gentle personality and good attitude towards others. Why did he change his usual behavior today and speak so arrogantly? Is he really good at playing basketball?
He immediately tried to smooth things over: "Really? That's better, Director Zhou. It happens that my level is the worst. The two of us are in the same team, and the strength can be balanced a little."
"Lao Xiao, Lao Chen, Da Mu, you three are in the first team, and Lao Gao, Director Zhou and I are in the first team."
"Okay, no problem, just do as you say."
"Director Zhou, don't be polite to us later, just torture us to death."
"Yes, haha."
Several people didn't take Zhou Chen's words to heart at all. They just thought that Zhou Chen was bragging. How good can he be at playing basketball? Is he better than CBA players?
Zhou Chen stood up calmly and took off his coat. Seeing that they were laughing so happily, I wonder if they can still laugh later.
The fact is that they can no longer laugh.
Ten minutes had not even passed, and no one on the basketball court could laugh except Zhou Chen. Even Liu Borui and Lao Gao, who were on Zhou Chen's team, were stunned.
The most stunned person was Lao Xiao from the laboratory department. He was standing stupidly a few steps in front of the basketball stand, looking at Zhou Chen as if he was a monster, and his face was pale.
If it had not happened before his eyes, he would not believe that someone could fly over his head and then dunk violently. The shaking of the basketball stand could not wake him up.
Brother, I am at least 1.75 meters tall, and you just flew over my head and dunked. Is it polite? Do you know how much trauma this caused me?
Thinking of this, he looked at Zhou Chen with more resentment, as if he was a young wife who had suffered a great injustice.
His eyes made Zhou Chen sweat. He just vented his anger for Fang Xiaoran, and he was abusing Lao Xiao from beginning to end.
But what surprised him was that although Lao Xiao was so angry that he smashed the ball and held his head, he didn't really get angry. He just looked at him with a look of depression and helplessness.
The two had no grudges. Thinking of this, he walked up to Lao Xiao and patted his shoulder gently.
"I'm sorry, I was so excited just now and couldn't control myself. Are you still fighting?"
Lao Xiao woke up as if from a dream and said with resentment: "What the hell are you fighting, Director Zhou, you are a bit awesome? Brother, we are just playing amateur basketball, why are you playing like the NBA finals?"
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "I'm doing surgery all day and I'm depressed. I just vent it out by playing basketball."
Lao Xiao looked more resentful, but the dissatisfaction that had just risen slowly dissipated.
"Next time, beat me to death, and I won't play basketball with you. It's too cruel."
"Yes, it's really too cruel. It makes us all stupid."
Liu Borui and the others also came over, looking at Zhou Chen one by one, as if they were looking at a monster, but they also admired him.
People all admire the strong. Zhou Chen's basketball skills just now are beyond their imagination. NBA superstars are like this.
Zhou Chen smiled and greeted them: "Come on, I'll buy you some water."
Liu Borui smiled and said: "Director Zhou is treating us, we must give this face."
"Let's go together. We have been beaten so badly, we must drink back."
"Yes, let's go."
The friendship between men is so simple. They can fight each other violently on the basketball court, and their relationship can be restored to the same as before when they leave the basketball court.
Several people bought a few bottles of water in the small supermarket in the hospital, drank a few sips and said goodbye to each other. Liu Borui and others made an appointment to play basketball next time, but they didn't mention this to Zhou Chen.
Three days later, Yan Hui recovered well and was transferred back to the general ward from the intensive care unit. He was very happy and ate a can of canned yellow peaches.
This morning, Zhou Chen came to the hospital early. He had a heavyweight operation to do today.
Fan Xin's parents who came to him before finally decided to let him be the main surgeon of Fan Xin's heart transplant surgery. Today is the time for the operation.
Originally, according to Fan Xin's parents' intention, they wanted to ask Zhou Chen to go to the capital's hospital for surgery, which was not difficult for their family.
But Zhou Chen disagreed. After discussion, they followed Zhou Chen's choice.
For Zhou Chen, this operation was not too difficult. The difficulty was in Fan Xin's physique. Children with congenital heart disease are basically much weaker than ordinary children.
Today, not only he, but the entire heart center attaches great importance to it, because this is a very representative operation. Cui Jing even summoned some doctors inside and outside the heart who were not busy today to come to the demonstration room outside the operating room to watch Zhou Chen's operation.
Because this heart transplant operation is different from ordinary heart transplant operations, and the patient's identity is special, the hospital leaders gathered together for fear of accidents.
Several hospital leaders, the director of the heart and surgery department of the heart center, and even Zhou Xiaofeng from the heart department, Lin Yi and Zhao Yuliang from the heart department, were also ready to watch.
Among them, Lin Yi was the most concerned. Because of his family's genetic disease, he paid special attention to heart transplantation. Recently, he even thought about doing this operation for his own elder brother, but there was no suitable source of organs, and his elder brother's condition was particularly serious, so there was no plan.
Knowing that Zhou Chen was going to do this operation today, especially for a teenager with congenital heart disease, he was particularly concerned and thought that he might learn something from Zhou Chen's operation.
For this operation, Zhou Chen's team configuration was also top-notch. The previous members of the surgical team were replaced by the best figures in the hospital, including the best nurses.
Zhou Chen was very serious and careful in this operation. He worked for four hours. From beginning to end, his hands were very steady and there was no mistake. In the end, the operation was successfully completed.
When the operation was successfully completed, many people inside and outside the operating room breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it was just one operation, it was an important operation for the Heart Center of Dongli Hospital and a very good publicity advertisement. After all, even the dignitaries in the capital chose the Heart Center of Dongli Hospital. If it was spread out, it would greatly enhance its reputation.
The hospital leaders left with satisfaction, and the doctors who watched in the demonstration room also benefited a lot.
Some people who had not seen Zhou Chen's operation before did not know much about Zhou Chen's level, but after watching it today, they were all impressed.
Well-deserved!
When Fan Xin's parents learned that their daughter's operation was successful and was sent to the intensive care unit, they were all excited and tears flowed.
Parents who have never raised a child with congenital heart disease may not understand their psychology. For them, it doesn't matter whether their children have a promising future or not. As long as the child can grow up healthily and become a person close to normal people, they will be satisfied.
Zhou Chen knows Fan Xin's situation best. Even if she can live a normal life after a heart transplant, it doesn't mean that she can be completely like a normal person.
And it depends on whether there will be rejection in the future. If there is no rejection, it's okay. If there is a rejection, it will be a big trouble.
However, given the situation of the Fan family, Fan Xin will definitely be much better than those patients who have undergone heart transplant surgery.
On the second day after Fan Xin's operation, Lin Yi suddenly came to Zhou Chen's office.
"Director Lin."
"Director Zhou, I came to you today because I want to ask you for help."
Zhou Chen thought carefully about what made Lin Yi come to ask for help, and he understood what was going on.
"Director Lin, don't be so distant. We are all colleagues. Just say whatever you want to say."
Lin Yi hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Director Zhou, I'll tell you the truth. Actually, my family situation is quite special. We have hereditary dilated cardiomyopathy. My father and my eldest brother have inherited dilated cardiomyopathy. My eldest brother has been ill for many years and is in a very bad condition now. I thought about giving him a heart transplant, but after asking many people, there is no good plan. Donors are hard to find and the operation is very difficult."
"Yesterday I watched your heart transplant operation in its entirety. I think if there is a suitable donor, you can perform a heart transplant on my eldest brother, and it will definitely be successful."
At the end, he was excited and excited, as if he saw great hope.
Dilated cardiomyopathy is like a sword hanging over their family's head. Now his eldest brother's condition is very critical. He wants to save his eldest brother and has thought of countless ways. Seeing Zhou Chen's operation yesterday gave him hope, so he hesitated for a day and came to Zhou Chen early this morning.
Sure enough, it was the same as he thought, Zhou Chen thought.
"Director Lin, I understand what you mean. Dilated cardiomyopathy is indeed very troublesome. A heart transplant is no problem for me, but as you said, the difficulty lies in finding a matching donor."
It has been 22 years now, and heart transplant surgery has matured. Heart transplant surgery for dilated cardiomyopathy is more difficult, but Zhou Chen is confident. But the problem is the right donor.
Lin Yi asked with hope: "Which hospital did the donor of the little girl yesterday come from?"
Zhou Chen shook his head and said: "I don't know about this. I am only responsible for the operation. I don't ask about the source of the heart, and it is not convenient to ask."
"Then Director Zhou, do you think there is hope if I ask for help?"
He has contacted a doctor who specializes in this field in the capital through his teacher's relationship, but the other party did not have a matching donor, and also discussed his brother's situation and was not optimistic.
So he has no other choice now. If he can catch an opportunity, he is unwilling to let it go.
Zhou Chen sighed: "The right donor also depends on fate. Director Lin, if you want to try, you can go to Fan Xin's father to ask."
Although he knew there was no hope, since Lin Yi came to him for help, he would do a favor and help.
Lin Yi immediately clasped his hands together, showing gratitude: "Director Zhou, I don't need to thank you for your kindness. No matter whether it succeeds or not, I thank you for your help."
Watching Lin Yi leave happily, Zhou Chen sighed slightly. Heart donors are scarce everywhere. It is not easy to find a matching one. Although Lin Yi is a genius surgeon, his influence is not great. It is too difficult to find a suitable donor. There is almost no hope.
However, genetic diseases are indeed terrible, especially dilated cardiomyopathy like the one in Lin Yi's family. It is really a fatal genetic disease. If you have this disease, most people really dare not fall in love and get married.
These days, Zhou Chen has had continuous operations, and all the patients who need surgery have completed the operation, so this afternoon is particularly free. After walking around the ward, he returned to the office to rest.
But in the hospital, such free time is hard to last. Before a game is over, a phone call comes.
"Hello, what's up?"
"Director Zhou, there's a strange patient in the emergency room. We can't contact Director Jiang and Director Lin. Could you please come and take a look?"
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
Zhou Chen didn't hesitate. He put away his phone and prepared to go to the emergency room. If there wasn't a special situation, the emergency room wouldn't have called him. It seemed that they must have encountered a very difficult patient.
