Chapter 174 If Blood Vessel Replacement Doesn’t Work, Aortic Thrombectomy Should Be Possible!
"What do you think, Lin Yi? What is the department's opinion on how to deal with this? Do you want me to testify?"
"Don't worry, this matter was caused by me, and you will never be implicated in the slightest!"
Lin Yi had just returned to the emergency department from the dean's meeting room when Lu Chenxi took him to the doctor's office without explanation, anxiously asking about the details...
She also knew that the department's investigation team would come to the hospital today to investigate the whole story of the Yamamoto incident.
But Lu Chenxi asked Director Zhong many times, but the director did not let her participate in this investigation in order to protect her.
He also repeatedly promised that there would be no problems between her and Lin Yi, and asked her to put her mind at ease and devote herself to work steadily.
Deputy Zhong said so, but how could Lu Chenxi really put her mind at ease?
In any case, insulting patients and driving them out of the hospital is a serious violation of the professional conduct of doctors.
What's more, this Yamamoto is so powerful that he even alarmed the Chinese Ministry of Health and set up an investigation team for this matter...
When Lin Yi was called away by the assistant dean, Lu Chenxi's heart was completely lifted up, and she kept an eye on the movements at the door of the emergency department at any time.
Lu Chenxi even made up her mind that if she didn't see Lin Yi come back for a long time, even if it went against Director Zhong's wishes, she would take the initiative to go to the investigation team to explain clearly and take full responsibility for this matter.
Lin Yi, such an excellent doctor, must not be ruined by the hands of the little book beast...
Fortunately, only half an hour had passed, and Lin Yi appeared at the door of the emergency department.
"It's okay, Teacher Lu, the little book's matter has been completely resolved!"
Lin Yi said it lightly.
Anyway, without his treatment, the little book suffering from gallbladder cancer would have one foot in the gate of hell.
I believe that the other party will never have the time and energy to go to the central hospital and trouble anyone in the future.
There is no need to spend too much energy on things that have been closed in general...
"Oh!"
"Well...Okay!"
Lu Chenxi didn't expect it to be solved so quickly. She wanted to ask Lin Yi about the specific solution.
But seeing Lin Yi's lack of interest, she had to give up this plan.
When Director Zhong comes back, it won't be too late to find out from him...
"If there is nothing else, Teacher Lu, I will go to work first."
After a short silence, Lin Yi greeted Lu Chenxi and prepared to do his own thing.
"Lin Yi, wait a minute, there is another important thing I want to discuss with you."
Seeing Lin Yi get up and prepare to leave, Lu Chenxi reacted from her contemplation and hurriedly called Lin Yi.
"Patient Wang Baoguo."
"That's the old man you rescued from the Eurasia Mall, the one who was diagnosed with syphilitic heart disease."
"What's wrong with him, Mr. Lu? Can he have the surgery in advance?"
After Lu Chenxi's reminder, Lin Yi matched the name Wang Baoguo. After all, he was in such a hurry in the morning that he didn't have time to ask the other party's specific name.
Lu Chenxi had promised him that during the heart surgery, Lin Yi would assist in the surgery.
In order to unlock the most critical heart surgery skills, Lin Yi had to keep an eye on this person's situation...
"How can it be so fast? The other party is so old. Without at least three to five days, the effect of driving away syphilis will not be achieved."
"Oh..." Lin Yi sighed rather disappointedly.
"Is there another situation?"
Since Lu Chenxi specifically mentioned this patient, there must be something else going on.
While asking, Lin Yi became nervous again. He was not afraid of a good thing that was not achieved through hard work, but was afraid of being worn out by hard work...
"After another detailed examination, I found that Wang Baoguo not only had simple aortic insufficiency, but also had severe aortic stenosis or obstruction."
"Aortic insufficiency can be easily solved by directly performing artificial aortic valve replacement."
"The trouble is that the aortic orifice obstruction is very serious, and the aortic blood vessels must be replaced, but considering that the patient is already 80 years old, it is very easy to be dangerous to replace the blood vessels."
Lu Chenxi explained the patient's new symptoms in detail to Lin Yi.
"So... I plan to give up the operation and switch to conservative treatment."
When talking about the final result, Lu Chenxi was also very embarrassed.
I had promised to let Lin Yi participate in this operation, but now it seems that it cannot be realized...
"Is there no other alternative surgical plan?"
"If the patient does not undergo surgery, severe aortic obstruction will endanger the patient's life at any time!"
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he stared at Lu Chenxi and continued to ask.
He finally came across a surgery that could activate his heart surgery skills, and he didn't want to miss it.
If he could intervene in heart surgery earlier, he would have more confidence in curing his sister's dilated cardiomyopathy earlier...
"I'm afraid not!"
"If the patient could find syphilis earlier, or if he was a few decades younger, such surgery would be very easy."
"It's too late now, we can only take it one step at a time..."
Lu Chenxi was also very helpless.
Many patients' illnesses are caused by their self-righteousness, and they drag it out step by step.
If Wang Baoguo had a little knowledge of medical treatment and realized the seriousness of the problem, he would not have encountered such an irreversible situation...
"Blood vessels are blocked... What if the blood vessels are unblocked? Then there is no need to replace blood vessels..."
"With experience in unblocking bile ducts... unblocking blood vessels should not be a big problem... suturing is not a problem..."
Lin Yi frowned and talked to himself, and gradually came up with a surgical plan that did not require blood vessel replacement.
"Teacher Lu, if we cut open the patient's aorta in the shortest time, take out the blood clots in the blood vessels, and then suture them..."
"Is this alternative surgical plan feasible?"
Lin Yi looked at Lu Chenxi expectantly and talked about the alternative plan all at once.
After all, Lu Chenxi is the authoritative expert in the field of heart. Whether this plan is feasible or not, the other party has to make the final decision...
"In principle, it is not impossible to cut open the artery and remove the thrombus when establishing extracorporeal circulation for surgery."
"But the patient is so old and his cardiovascular aging is very serious. This not only requires a very high speed of surgery, but also requires extremely accurate suture of the blood vessels without any mistakes!"
Lu Chenxi muttered to himself, reviewing the various matters that need to be paid attention to in the operation in his mind bit by bit.
The most critical point of this operation is the technology of vascular suture. If the operation is improper, the patient's artery will be irreparably damaged and the patient will not even have the opportunity to get off the operating table.
However, all this seems to be no problem for Lin Yi.
The superb suture technique is one of Lin Yi's best skills...
"How sure are you?"
Lu Chenxi's eyes sparkled, and he looked at Lin Yi nervously.
If this operation can be successfully completed, it will also be a huge breakthrough in the field of cardiac surgery...
