The next day, at the Charlotte Hospital in Berlin, Professor Bergmann's office.

"How's the patient doing?"

Glancing at John, who was standing quietly, Professor Bergman turned to Luca and asked.

"It's bad!"

It was also after glancing at John first that Lukka shook his head and smiled bitterly: "As we expected, breathing has become more difficult, the pulse is unstable, and the situation is getting worse and worse...... If it weren't for the doctors' intervention, I'm sure he wouldn't have lasted tonight. ”

After listening to Luca's report, Bergman's gaze turned to his protégé again: "John, are you sure you still want to operate on him?" You know, the probability of success is almost zero, and the consequences of failure ......"

"Hehe, I understand, professor."

Without waiting for Bergman to finish speaking, John nodded and smiled. He understood what Professor Bergman meant, because for the surgeons of this era, the reason why so few people tried cardiac surgery was because the probability of failure was almost 100 percent, and this kind of inevitable failure would definitely be ridiculed and ridiculed by others: according to most people's thinking, operating on the heart is a desecration of the art of surgery!

But does John need to care about this?

So after seeing that Professor Bergman was still a little hesitant, John took a deep breath and said, "Professor, I insist on performing heart surgery on this patient!" If he hadn't done it, he'd probably die today, so why not let me try? ”

John was greeted by the silence of Bergman and Luca.

Of course, they know this very well, but they also have to think about a lot of things. But after all, he had already thought about it for a night, so in the face of John's request for identification, Bergman only hesitated for a few seconds this time before letting out a long sigh and said helplessly: "Okay." An operating room, the assistant has to convince yourself! ”

"Hehe, thank you, Professor!"

John raised an eyebrow, a smile on his face.

After obtaining Professor Bergman's sword of Shang Fang, John was able to get the assistant for the operation, his old friend Luca, who was standing nearby, in just one minute. Although he did not approve of John's attempt, when the old friend did decide to start the operation. Luca didn't say no either.

All the preparations were completed in an hour.

Heart surgery sounds complicated and arguably one of the most difficult in the field of surgery. But in this era at the end of the 19th century, this time the operation was essentially simple. Because of the lack of the most basic technical support conditions, John didn't need to think too much, all he had to do was open the patient's chest cavity, find the location of the knife wound to the heart as quickly as possible, and then stitch it up as quickly as possible!

As for the outcome of the operation, it can only be arranged by God.

An operating room. John, the chief surgeon, Luca, an assistant, and Helen, the nurse, assisted the four of them in the operating room after another half hour. Outside the glass walls of the operating room, Professor Bergman and another surgeon, Staff, were observing at the same time. Originally, more surgeons were wanted to come in to observe, but with Professor Bergman's interference, only the highest-ranking Stafford was allowed to enter, hoping to keep John's honor as much as possible......

"Although it is incomprehensible. But I admire Mr. Huntelaar's courage. ”

John and Luca, who watched as the anesthesia was completed in the glass, were disinfecting the patient. Staff, who was not yet forty years old, showed a look of admiration on his face and said in a low voice: "At least for me, challenging heart surgery is something that I can't even think of, especially in the current environment, I can't challenge you and Professor Bierrot's philosophy. ”

"Well, because he's John? Huntelaar! ”

After a moment of silence. Bergman replied softly.

The answer was simple, but Stav understood what Professor Bergman meant almost instantly. Indeed, if only in the field of surgery, because of the lack of historical precipitation, John is already one of the top surgeons in Europe. The fame is also very great, but it is still slightly worse than Bilrot and Liszt and others, but if you add achievements in the fields of vitamins, blood grouping and pharmaceuticals, even if many theories are still extremely controversial, but in the entire medical system, John? The name Huntelaar has enough confidence that he can challenge anyone's authority!

Even if the other party is Bierrot, it will not be an exception.

What's more, in addition to his achievements in the field of medicine, John even caused a sensation in the field of physics not long ago, plus he is still a super-rich man, owning many industries such as Heinz Pharmaceutical Company and General Motors under his name, what's so scary?

Looking at each other and smiling bitterly, the two of them didn't say anything more, and focused on the operating table behind the glass.

“…… Therefore, the principle of our surgery is to be fast! ”

Holding his gloved hands in front of his chest, John said to his assistant Luca seriously: "Once the knife is down, we must open the ribcage as quickly as possible, then find the incision as fast as possible, and suture it as fast as possible!" Only in this way can the patient have a glimmer of life! ”

"Understood!"

After taking a deep breath, Lukka nodded vigorously.

Any qualified physician understands how important the beating of the heart is to the human body, and if the heart is operated on for too long, the patient will surely die! So Luca agreed with John's proposed principle of surgery, but after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "John, how are you going to suture the wound...... I mean, how do you stitch your heart up when it's beating all the time? ”

"There is no other way but diastolic operation."

Shaking his head with a wry smile, John reluctantly explained his plan.

Without adequate equipment and technology, the heart can only continue to beat during surgery, that is, it can contract and relax constantly, which is undoubtedly the biggest problem in surgery. In this regard, Johann had to adopt the practice of a German surgeon in history, the heart is still when it contracts, and the needle is down and out when it is diastolic!

Of course, this approach is still extremely difficult.

John wouldn't want to have such an operation if there were other safer options, which would have been unimaginable for a 21st-century surgeon. But with the outrageously rudimentary technical conditions of this era, I am afraid that there is only one such plan that can be implemented.

Thinking of this, John did not hesitate, took a deep breath and said loudly: "Okay, let's get started!" (To be continued.) )
