Back to 1999: From Operating Surgeon to Becoming a Top Doctor

Chapter 358

Arm incision is different from open surgery. It requires more delicate operation and concentration.

Especially the hands with dense blood vessels and nerves have higher requirements for anatomical structure.

The tip of the knife continued to scratch the forearm, exposing muscle tissue and fascia.

Because of the penetrating wound, the tissue around the steel bar has been damaged, and even some tissues are missing.

The first thing to do now is to take out the steel bar buried in the forearm.

Pulling it out directly will damage the surrounding tissues for the second time. Once the trauma is too severe, it will become a very difficult thing to repair the arm again.

Xiao Chenguang did not dare to be careless. He stared at the incision with burning eyes and took out 100% of his energy to start the operation.

After exploration. As he expected before, the median and radial nerves were damaged, the blood vessels were broken, and the tendons were damaged.

The operation will take at least three hours. Now the first thing to do is to remove the steel bar.

"The blood prepared by the blood transfusion department is ready. Do you want to get it?"

Xiao Chenguang nodded, and the nurse immediately arranged for someone to go to the blood transfusion department to get blood.

Burn patients need plasma transfusion, and those with severe trauma need red blood cells.

Although Liu Daqing's injury was not fatal, infection would be a problem over time.

The recovery of arm function was also a problem.

Xiao Chenguang was concentrating on the operation.

In the emergency department outside, people were still busy.

The blowout accident was very serious and many people were injured. The Petroleum Administration Bureau attached great importance to it and sent relevant personnel to the scene to check the situation as soon as possible.

At the hospital, Li Guoyong, who learned the news, also rushed to the emergency department to participate in the command of the rescue.

However, unlike the chaos he expected, although the emergency department was busy, everyone was doing things and he didn't need to command at all.

"Where is Director Xiao?"

Li Guoyong's hanging heart fell by half.

He asked the nurse who passed by, and the latter saw the dean coming in person, stopped and answered.

"Dean Li, he is in the emergency operating room. There is a patient with a steel bar penetration injury and he is in surgery."

"Okay, you go ahead."

After Li Guoyong asked clearly, he was about to go over, but he saw a car suddenly stopped outside the emergency door.

Two people got off.

The woman was small and he didn't recognize her, but he was very familiar with the man who was walking by.

"Director Chu, are you in Yingcheng?"

The man who came was Chu Tianyu from the Hand and Foot Surgery Department of the Provincial First Hospital.

Last time, when the seminar was held at the Central Hospital, thanks to Chu Tianyu's presence, Li Guoyong was able to invite him to Shengli Hospital to help repair Lao Wang Li's broken hand.

"Old Li, long time no see. I just arrived in Yingcheng today and have been guiding the work at the Central Hospital during this period."

"Just now, a staff member of the hospital came to me and said that her father had a piercing injury on his arm and asked me to perform the operation."

The staff member that Chu Tianyu was talking about was Liu Xiaoxiao.

When the 126th team was talking on the phone, Liu Daqing didn't have time to hang up the phone. Liu Xiaoxiao heard the accident clearly on the phone.

Blowout!

As a child who grew up in the oil field, Liu Xiaoxiao was very clear about the dangers.

There were even several times when she was a child, she saw with her own eyes the scene of her friends who lost their fathers due to blowouts crying.

She was young and couldn't do anything.

But she planted the seeds in her heart, not wanting her father to get hurt.

In fact, she had advised her father before that he should not work on the front line when he was old.

But her father, who had always doted on her, only smiled and said nothing about this matter.

"Brother Cheng, where is my father?"

Liu Xiaoxiao was anxious, and she saw Qi Tiancheng walking towards her quickly.

"Xiaoxiao, uncle is in surgery, Director Xiao is doing the surgery himself, in the emergency operating room here."

"Okay..." Liu Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, and continued: "I invited Professor Chu from the Provincial First Hospital to come over, see if you can tell Director Xiao."

When it comes to her father's condition, Liu Xiaoxiao can't care about the worldly affairs at this time. The purpose of inviting Professor Chu is for the sake of her father's arm.

After all, this is a steel bar penetration injury.

Letting Professor Chu, who is the best in this field in the province, come on stage is the greatest effort Liu Xiaoxiao can do for her father at this time.

"I... go and tell him."

Qi Tiancheng gritted his teeth and decided to go in and tell him.

He didn't know how far the surgery was going, but at this time, the provincial professor came to take over, which was a bit embarrassing for Director Xiao.

He had never experienced this kind of temporary change of chief surgeon before.

As Qi Tiancheng put on the isolation suit and carefully entered the operating room, Chu Tianyu outside also heard their conversation.

He frowned and asked Li Guoyong beside him: "Old Li, who is this Director Xiao? Can your hospital now perform penetrating trauma surgery?"

"Or do you do it directly in the emergency room?"

As a leading figure in the provincial capital's hand and foot surgery, Chu Tianyu didn't understand what the emergency department of Shengli Hospital did.

A hospital that doesn't even have hand and foot surgery or microscopic surgery actually performs steel bar penetrating injury surgery in the emergency room, which is too bold.

"This is indeed a new business of our Shengli Hospital..."

Li Guoyong didn't care and told about the emergency measures that Xiao Chenguang had recently carried out.

"!!!" Chu Tianyu.

"Is this the man you're talking about, the young man who dared to do microvascular suture while wearing a headgear and magnifying glass?"

"Yes."

"What's his name?"

"Xiao Chenguang."

"Yes, it's him." Chu Tianyu's mind suddenly flashed to the young man on the stage.

I was particularly impressed by his Kessler tendon suture and four-point eight-needle microvascular anastomosis.

At this time, Qi Tiancheng came out with a sense of relief, and he nodded to Liu Xiaoxiao who was frightened beside him.

The latter was also relieved when she saw this.

She was really afraid that Xiao Chenguang would not agree and turn away Professor Chu.

"Dean Li, Professor Chu, Director Xiao said that you can go in. They are preparing to remove the steel bars over there, and they just need someone to help."

The scene inside was shocking even for an old emergency doctor like Qi Tiancheng.

The steel bars were tightly buried in the arm, like rivets driven in, motionless.

Xiao Chenguang was sitting there, dissecting bit by bit, peeling off the steel bars embedded in the flesh and blood.

"It's time to remove the steel bars so soon?"

Chu Tianyu was stunned after hearing this.

He habitually looked at the time on the wall. Even if the operation was carried out as soon as the incident happened, it would take two or three hours to remove the steel bars.

But now, only half an hour has passed since he rushed over from the Central Hospital.

In such a short time, he has to remove the steel bar, which is faster than Chu Tianyu.

How is this possible?

He is probably in a hurry to achieve success, and he wants to forcibly remove the steel bar before the stripping is completed.

In this way, the arm will be seriously damaged, and when the steel bar is pulled out, the hand will be useless.

Not to mention restoring basic functions, even Chu Tianyu cannot guarantee whether the subsequent suture repair can finally save the hand.

"Don't let him move, I'll go in now!"

Chu Tianyu did not dare to be careless, and immediately greeted and prepared to enter the operating room.

His unusual behavior also made everyone present feel nervous.

For something that can make the provincial professor so anxious, this operation must not be so easy.

Seeing Chu Tianyu walk into the operating room, as the door closed, Liu Xiaoxiao's tears flowed out all of a sudden.
