"Oh no! Major General Liu did not only have a brain tumor. There were two hemomalies at the intersection of his cerebrum and the optical chiasm, which were pressing on his optical nerve!”
This greatly increased the difficulty of the surgery. Moreover, once the surgery was started, it had to be completed as soon as possible. This was because the moment the subarachnoidal space with the cerebral spinal cord was opened, the entire cerebral pressure (cerebral pressure) would begin to slowly increase, and the entire brain tissue would gradually begin to swell, commonly known as cerebral edema.
Both the increase in the patient's cerebral pressure and cerebral edema were very troublesome diseases. Therefore, while the patient's condition was still good, he had to quickly deal with the two hemomalies!
"Give me the scalpel and prepare the scalp hemostatic clip for another craniotomy.”Zhang Yi instructed the scrub nurse.
Because the opening was too small, and the left side of the brain was not taken out, the instrument could not enter the cerebrum at all, so the position of the craniotomy had to be enlarged.
"Opening it again?" Chen Yuanming, the director of the Department of Brain Surgery, had some doubts.
"If you don't open it, Major General Liu will die!”Zhang Yi said coldly.
Zhang Yi was the chief surgeon, so Chen Yuan Ming did not say anything else. He just thought that if something really happened to Major General Liu later, he would have to push all the responsibility to Zhang Yi. He could not implicate himself.
"Tsk!"
The craniotomer cut open the marked position on the scalp, and then the gauze with bone wax was used to stop the bleeding. The bone spatula was fixed on the outermost layer to protect the remaining skull shape. When the dura was cut open, the dura was fixed to one side with an automatic tractor so that it could be sutured later.
Finally, he gently pried open the dura mater and used a non-destructive suture to gently pull the dura mater. Two stitches were enough.
At present, the two arteries were very close to the optical nerve. It seemed that the method of clamping would not work. The only way was to ligate them. Ligation was to separate the wall of the blood vessel from the artery outside the wall of the blood vessel. Just like a balloon that was being inflated, a thread was used to tighten the inflating opening. This way, the artery would not grow bigger. However, the problem now was that the artery had already pressed on the nerves. After the ligature, the blood inside the artery had to be sucked dry with a suction device, and it would naturally shrink.
A neurosurgeon who was standing at the side gulped silently. This young man was really f * cking amazing. Even the director of the military hospital might not be as steady as this young man, right?
His hands did not tremble the entire time, just like a motionless person! Not only his hands, but even his body did not move at all!
After removing the two tumors, Zhang Yi immediately took out the left hemisphere that had been infected with tumor cells and put it aside. The last step was to check carefully to see if there were any brain tissues left in the brain cavity or other nerve damage.
The last step was suturing. Usually, the skull could not be sutured after the surgery was completed, because if the proportion of the skull space became smaller and the suture was performed, it would cause changes in the skull pressure. He had to wait for three months after the cerebral artery pressure returned to normal before he could go to the hospital for another checkup to confirm that he had recovered. Only then could he use the artificial skull to supplement it.
Therefore, most patients who underwent a craniotomy would basically lose half of their heads. It was as if they had been chopped off by someone. It looked quite terrifying.
Outside the operating theater, Li Yuanzheng was sitting on a bench anxiously waiting for the results. There were a few soldiers in military uniforms beside him.
"Old Li! Is that young doctor you found really capable?!”
"Please believe him! He has the ability!" Li Yuanzheng said firmly.
"It's not that we don't believe him, but this is a critical moment to save lives. We should find an authoritative expert. How can we let a newly graduated medical student operate on us? You're really muddle-headed!" A major general couldn't help but berate softly.
Li Yuanzheng was about to explain when he saw a woman rushing over from the elevator door. She was Han Jinfang, the wife of Major General Liu and the director of Tianshan City's Health Bureau.
"Where's my husband? Did he come out? How is he?" She grabbed Li Yuanzheng's arm and questioned him.
"Not yet." Li Yuanzheng did not dare to look Han Jinfang in the eyes. Liu Jun was his closest brother and comrade. If he lost Liu Jun's life because of his choice today, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
"But Sister-in-law, believe me. The doctor I hired definitely has the ability to cure Liu Jun!”
He was willing to believe in Zhang Yi! Since Zhang Yi was able to perform an impossible cardiac surgery, he would definitely be able to perform a neurosurgery as well!
At this moment, the red light outside the operating theater went out, and everyone's nerves tensed up. All of them stared at the door of the operating theater, waiting for the patient to be pushed out.
Finally, the door opened.
"How did it go? How is my husband?" Han Jinfang rushed forward and grabbed one of the doctors without caring about her image.
The doctor gently took off his mask and smiled."The surgery was a complete success. The left hemisphere of the brain was successfully removed, along with two very well-hidden arteries!”
Who else could this doctor be but Zhang Yi?
