Chapter 1075 Gastric Surgery for Weight Loss

These days, Yang Ping is busy with the treatment of Professor Chang from Nandu Affiliated One, and he doesn't pay much attention to matters in his own hospital. Director Fang of the General Surgery Department told Yang Ping many days in advance that he had a major surgery for extracorporeal resection of liver cancer and liver autotransplantation. , Although Director Fang has performed dozens of such operations, since the operation is too complicated and difficult, Director Fang feels that it is more reassuring to have Yang Ping by his side.

However, Yang Ping had been busy in the past few days, so Director Fang kept waiting. Now that Yang Ping was finally free, he immediately seized the opportunity to arrange the surgery. After Yang Ping finished his work, he went to the General Surgery Department to have a look and help Director Fang calm down.

On Yang Ping's way to the surgical building, several patients' family members were waiting at the gate. When they saw Yang Ping coming out, they immediately blocked them and were immediately stopped by Er Shun and several plainclothes guards who were following him.

When I asked what was going on, it turned out that the patient couldn't get Yang Ping's number, so he thought of this rough method and squatted at the door of the surgical institute. When he saw Yang Ping coming out, he immediately rushed up and asked Yang Ping to help him check the CT scan. Please give me a treatment plan, and it is best to help with the surgery.

This kind of thing is very difficult for doctors, especially Yang Ping's identity and status. You can help him look at it. Once this hole is opened, it is not just about one of his patients. Thousands of patients will come to block him in the future. . There will even be a scalper industry chain formed around this method. There will be a group of people organized to help people block him, charging thousands or tens of thousands at a time.

If you don't help him, the patient and the patient's family will say that this doctor has no medical ethics. He only needs a few minutes to see a doctor, but he has already come to his door and refuses to help. He refuses to save anything and has no medical ethics.

In fact, most doctors will not look at this kind of situation. Once this is opened, it is not just about one patient, but many things will happen later. This is not a moral or immoral issue at all. If this is okay, everyone does not need to register or see an outpatient clinic. There is no need to queue up, everyone swarms directly to block the famous doctors, and the entire medical order is disrupted.

In fact, this kind of thing doesn't happen once or twice. In the past, people blocked Yang Ping at the door every week. Later, the security department took special measures to deal with it, and now this kind of thing has reduced a lot.

Several security guards at the door also immediately came to help. Ershun handed over the matters here to the security guards and continued to follow Yang Ping. If the security guards stop you a few times, such incidents will gradually decrease in the future. Yang Ping could only refuse this kind of thing. He had no choice but to let go, which would cause chaos in the entire medical order.

Yang Ping went to the general surgery ward first, and then to the operating room. Because Director Fang had done several patients with extracorporeal tumor resection and autologous organ transplantation before, these operations were all completed under the guidance of Yang Ping, and Yang Ping also wanted to see the postoperative results.

The doctor on duty at the general surgery department saw Yang Ping coming, and immediately accompanied Yang Ping to help open the computer and report the latest test results of these patients. Yang Ping was browsing the test reports, and a fat man poked his head at the door of the doctor's office.

Isn't this Wei Danian? Weighing two hundred kilograms, he was the heaviest patient Yang Ping had ever seen. No matter where he went, Yang Ping could immediately recognize him.

"Professor Yang?" Wei Danian also recognized Yang Ping and immediately came up to say hello. Wei Danian was an enthusiastic person.

"Wei Danian, why are you here? What's going on?" Yang Ping asked him.

Wei Danian said with a silly smile: "I had a gastric bariatric surgery here. It has been a few days since the surgery. Now I am waiting to have the sutures removed and be discharged."

"Gastrectomy to lose weight?" Yang Ping remembered that he seemed to have consulted about this operation before, but he never thought that it would be implemented now.

He really needs to lose weight at this weight, 200 kilograms. Obesity has seriously threatened his health. The obesity problem is definitely not just an image problem, but more importantly a health problem.

Obese people like Wei Danian will definitely have high blood pressure and blood sugar in the future, and it is very likely that they have already risen now.

"Wei Danian, why did you decide to have surgery to lose weight? Weren't you afraid before? Didn't you say before that you should control your diet and increase exercise first, and then we'll see what happens later." Yang Ping asked him.

Wei Danian said very seriously: "Professor Yang, I will definitely not be able to lose weight if I don't lose weight in this situation. I have no confidence in other weight loss methods, so I can only resort to surgery to lose weight. I have thought about it for a long time. You see, I am now It’s a systemic disease. My blood sugar and blood pressure are no longer normal. I also have apnea syndrome. I went to the respiratory medicine department. The experts there said that this situation does not require surgery at the moment. As long as I lose weight, it will definitely be cured.”

"Do you feel okay after the surgery?"

"It feels good."

Yang Ping felt that he had finally found the key problem and that he should have lost weight long ago. He weighs 200 kilograms, has high blood pressure, high blood lipids, and high blood sugar. He is only in his twenties. If he were a little older, a lot of problems would definitely appear one after another.

Losing weight seems simple: control your diet and increase exercise.

But it's easier said than done.

For most fat people, they have a very good appetite. If you stop them from eating, it will be more uncomfortable than killing them.

Increase your exercise, it may seem good, but in fact, when you are obese to a certain extent, you won’t be able to move at all.

For a fat man like Wei Danian, his heart rate would soar to 160 beats per minute within a few minutes of running. If he continued running like this, he would definitely have arrhythmia.

I was out of breath when I climbed the stairs to the second floor and had to sit on the ground to rest for half an hour. If the weather is hot, you will be sweating all over after just a few steps. Would you let such a person engage in sports?

"It is impossible for me to control my diet and exercise in my situation." Wei Danian himself said.

And those weight loss pills are useless. Because the principle of weight loss pills is similar, they all increase the feeling of fullness in the stomach, that is, you haven't eaten yet, but you feel that your stomach is full. This can prevent you from eating less, but it is actually just reducing your diet. And almost all weight loss pills need to be combined with increased exercise to be effective.

For foodies, he doesn't eat to solve the problem of hunger at all, he eats purely because it tastes good. He just likes to eat, not because he is hungry.

So this kind of weight loss pill that increases the feeling of fullness in the stomach is meaningless to Wei Danian.

What should I do? Wei Danian thought of gastric resection weight loss surgery.

"I have also inquired about many people who have completed this operation. It is indeed very effective. Some people have lost more than 100 pounds. If I can lose 250 pounds, I will send a banner to Director Fang." Wei Danian gestured.

I saw a correct version in the 16-9 book forum!

250 pounds? This goal seems a bit high. Director Fang's banner is not so easy to get.

"I didn't know about this surgery before. We have a WeChat group full of fat people, and several of them have had the surgery, but these guys did it secretly and didn't tell anyone after the surgery. I asked them how they lost weight so successfully, and they said it was because of the weight loss pills, and then they sold me the weight loss pills. Later I found out that they secretly had the weight loss surgery." Wei Danian was a little angry.

Wei Danian couldn't stop talking once he started. If he continued to chat like this, he probably wouldn't repeat a sentence for three days and three nights.

Yang Ping walked around the ward and then came to the operating room. Director Fang had already opened the abdomen and was separating the blood vessels of the liver.

Director Fang felt much more at ease when he saw Yang Ping coming.

"I just met that Wei Danian in your department. He said you did a gastrectomy for him?" Yang Ping asked casually.

Director Fang said: "He was too obese, so I performed a sleeve gastrectomy on him."

This surgery involves removing most of the stomach from the greater curvature, retaining the normal physiological structure and function of the cardia and pylorus, while compressing the stomach's capacity to about 80 ml.

"Why is it so difficult to separate the blood vessels of the liver!" Director Fang's surgery seems difficult to perform.
