Leisurely Lodge.
In order to let Imperial Doctor Lu and other imperial doctors concentrate on studying Mrs. Ai's condition, the old owner of Qi specially asked his subordinates to clean up an independent courtyard. And in this courtyard, except for a few imperial doctors and Mrs. Ai's mother and son, no one in the village can disturb at will.
Mrs. Ai has been in a coma since she was taken down the mountain. This was naturally the idea of several imperial doctors, considering the crazy attack on the mountain, if she woke up, they would be miserable.
Despite this, the old owner of Qi still sent guards with strong martial arts in the village to wait outside the house to protect the safety of several imperial doctors.
The three imperial doctors of King Zhang Chen have been doing their best to treat Mrs. Ai's cold disease, and according to what they said before, they used Songhua jade dew cream to wash the old scars on Mrs. Ai's face. During this time, Lu Mansheng focused on the second level of Yan Shu.
After Lu Mansheng saw the second weight of the Yan Technique, he was very surprised. Because Wei Dong's proposal is not only bold but also terrifying. Not to mention that such a technique has only begun to bear fruit in modern times, and it is the operation itself that Lu Mansheng is very afraid of.
The second stage of facial surgery, from the perspective of modern medicine, is very similar to face transplant surgery.
Face transplant surgery is a boon for many disfigured people, but it is highly controversial.
Technically, a face transplant relies on microsurgical techniques to connect tiny nerves and blood vessels together. Before surgery, doctors first remove the facial cortex of the deceased donor and preserve the muscles, nerves, tendons, and blood vessels. Subsequently, the doctor removes the injured layer of the facial cortex. The donor's facial cortex is adjusted and then sutured on the patient's face.
As incredible as it sounds, face transplant surgery is well established in many countries, and there are many successful cases.
Doctors will first conduct experiments on the donor's corpse. for the desired effect. After the surgery, the patient will be given a 'mixed face' that combines the characteristics of themselves and the donor, which looks similar to the donor while retaining the patient's own features. Of course, if the bone structure is transplanted together, the patient will look exactly like the donor, but this is not currently possible in the medical field.
This kind of medicine. Ordinary people can't accept it. Most of the problems faced by face transplant surgery are not technical, but the ethical issues involved in the surgery. A face is a facial marker that distinguishes an individual from others. It not only helps others to identify themselves, but also affects their own personality development and way of thinking. Therefore, if some people do fundamentally change their personal characteristics, as in science fiction movies, it can lead to a series of social problems related to identity.
Public acceptance is not the only issue. It also faces skepticism from within the medical community. Some doctors think. People don't need this kind of expensive surgery with unpredictable results, and face transplants are inherently in low demand.
That's why there are two very different voices for facial medical surgery, and for people who are in the pain of disfigurement, they are eager to have such an operation, and they have a certain level of awareness and are willing to take all kinds of risks. For ordinary people, most of them have an attitude of doubt, rejection and even fear.
Other doctors say after a face transplant. Patients must take large amounts of medication to prevent rejection in the body, and the resulting health risks are enough to negate the positive effects of the surgery. Furthermore. There are also doctors who question the success rate of this procedure and discuss the psychological changes that occur in patients due to transient changes in individual characteristics.
As a doctor, Lu Mansheng has always paid attention to the news in the medical field, although she does not study this area, she has also discussed this issue with her colleagues. Even as doctors, it is difficult for them to accept this surgery, but they are very aware of the desires and pains of those who are disfigured.
They found it difficult to accept because of the high risk of the surgery and the series of physical health problems that followed.
Wei Dong's record in the "East Bed Treasure Book" can be described as something that capable people can't, which explains that he himself has done dozens of experiments and finally succeeded.
The second weight of Yanshu is Wei Dong's life's proud, and he spent almost all of his time in his later years on this research.
Returning to face transplant surgery, the most difficult part of this surgery is to find the deceased donor with the highest histocompatibility with the patient, but even then, a lot of drugs are needed to suppress the patient's immune system and weaken the attack on foreign tissues.
These immunosuppressive drugs often have side effects such as high blood pressure, diabetes, uremia and nephritis.
This brings us to the second problem that needs to be solved urgently in face transplant surgery, which is to solve the problem of side effects of immunosuppressive drugs. If this problem can be resolved, the patient can have a face transplant with peace of mind.
In the face of this problem, Baojian also put forward many feasible suggestions. For example, when looking for the most compatible match, he will decide based on the facial contours of the match and the patient, the similarity of the bones, and the degree of rejection of the matcher's face, which tests the level of a doctor.
For a ghost talent like Wei Dongbed, his strength is naturally different. But even he had many failures before he finally completed it. Even if the second level of Yan Technique has been cultivated to perfection, the success rate after this is still not guaranteed to be 100%. On the contrary, because of the limitations of ancient technology, the various potions concocted are varied, and the degree of efficacy varies according to each patient.
Considering the various problems that might be encountered, Lu Mansheng was timid for the first time. It's not that you're afraid of failure, it's not that you don't have confidence. It's such an operation, which she couldn't accept from the beginning.
The thought of removing the dough from the face of the match, even if that person has been dead for a long time, and then putting it on the face of a completely different person, makes my heart tremble.
Not to mention the treatment described in the second stage of facial surgery, it took more than 30 surgeries before it could be finally completed, and the complexity is indescribable. It is a series of maintenance that follows, including the patient's positive and optimistic attitude, strong cooperation, and determination to bear the discomfort and pain after the operation, which is impossible for Qing'er's mother at this time.
Lu Mansheng encountered a real bottleneck, in the silent night, under an oil lamp, Lu Mansheng propped his head, frowned slightly, and the hand on his knee trembled imperceptibly...... (To be continued.) )
