Chapter 575: The First Half

The operation continued. As the small pontine angle of the brain is revealed, the situation inside is also displayed on the big screen.

The tumor seems to have been clearly exposed, just waiting for the surgeon to pick the fruit.

However, in the eyes of the incomparably experienced Yuken Kamura and Walker, what they saw was not the same.

This is just a arachnoid cyst that covers the surface of the acoustic neuroma, and it is quite deceptive and often misleads doctors into thinking that it is a lesion, thus ignoring the real acoustic neuroma.

This kind of thing may make some young people with weak roots stop here, right?

However, the faint and inconvenient dark thoughts that had just risen in Jiacun's heart were broken by Tao Le.

To be precise, it was her movements that were too fast and decisive, and did not leave him room for revererie.

Poking, draining, and cleaning up the arachnoid cyst, Tao Le did it very smoothly.

And in the next moment, she successfully found the lower pole of the tumor, and showed it with practical actions, she was not confused at all.

Before she began to remove the patient, she did another thing: she took out several bright needles and stuck them in the patient's skull.

This step, not only Zheng Changchun and Zhuo Shengli on the side were confused, but also Yuken Kamura and Volker.

The difference is that they have seen similar situations in the previous video of a large aneurysm.

This is not the current common new technology and procedure in neurosurgery.

At that time, Tony once explained this, saying that these few needles can have the effect of stopping bleeding when pricked.

Kamura Youjian's understanding of Huaguo's acupuncture is actually a bit shallow.

It does have a certain effect on some diseases, but it is still not very scientific to say that it can clamp blood vessels and block blood flow like a silver clip.

But it didn't matter, they were now at the scene of the operation, and they could see for themselves whether these slender needles could be as magical as Tony described.

Once Tao Le entered the state of surgery, the whole person's spirit was immediately highly concentrated, leaving everything on the periphery behind, and he had long forgotten that there were two foreign experts in the operating room who were trying to find the mistakes and omissions.

The incision in the posterior fossa is not large, and it is impossible to directly peel out the acoustic neuroma with a diameter of 5 cm, so Tao Le chose to have an intracapsular excision.

She first used brain cotton to protect a part of the auditory nerve under the side of the tumor, and then chose a site without blood vessels to cut on the tumor.

When Zheng Changchun saw this, his brows gradually furrowed.

According to the usual procedure, Tao Le should first stop the bleeding with electrocautery or clamping the blood vessels, so as to avoid massive bleeding after the incision and affect the operation.

Unexpectedly, after all kinds of reliability in the early stage, which made his expectations infinitely higher, this person suddenly rose up without warning, and simply omitted the important step of stopping bleeding.

This is simply a heart that made his old man's heart, smashed directly into the hole in the ground from a high altitude, not to mention the pain of the fall, and all kinds of worries and fears.

"Xiao Tao!" He couldn't help it, and opened his mouth at the same time as Tao Le cut open the tumor.

"What?" Tao Le's subordinates didn't stop, took the curette from the instrument nurse, and asked subconsciously.

Zheng Changchun was ready to stop the bleeding, and the words of guidance and blame came to his mouth, and he swallowed it back alive.

Because there was not a drop of blood at the incision in front of her, it seemed that what she cut was not a brain tumor covered with large and small hideous blood vessels, but just a dry socket head with no water.

"It's okay. You continue. Zheng Changchun heard his own dry voice.

At this moment, Han Tae's words with a bit of reproach echoed in his ears again.

"You haven't learned acupuncture to control the pulse and stop bleeding?"

"That's also useful for your extracerebral surgery."

Well, now I have probably seen what acupuncture means to control the pulse and stop bleeding, he thought.

This kind of thing, if you don't care about its effect and don't bother to learn it, you are simply a fool!

Suddenly, he remembered the resident doctor Xiao Fang sent by Corey to attend the relevant briefing in the hospital last time.

This kid only sent everyone a strange device, and casually mentioned that everyone wanted to learn, but he didn't explain what was going on at all, let alone follow up.

Thinking about himself, he must not have this kind of skill in his eyes, right?

What a small party! No wonder Corey despised this matter, it turned out that the root cause was not his own, but that the small party did not convey a good spirit and preach a good policy.

After the operation later, he must find Xiao Fang and talk to him well, so that he can face up to his problems, so as not to make more mistakes in this era of new technologies!

He was stunned here, but Walker and Kamura Yuken were stunned.

When they watched that video at the time, they were skeptical and contemptuous, and they laughed at acupuncture to stop bleeding or something.

But in front of me is the real surgical scene, just a few thin needles, but the effect of hemostasis is so good that people can't ignore it at all.

The Chinese people were able to develop such a practical technique on the basis of ancient Chinese medicine.

Yujian Kamura was in a trance, but Walker's eyes were shining when he saw it, and his face was full of shock and expectation.

What he was expecting, Yuken Kamura didn't have to guess to know.

In fact, he himself is the same. If you don't know, if you see the wonders of this technology, how can you not want to learn it?

At this time, he suddenly understood why Tony did not hesitate to risk being questioned and demoted, and he also tried his best to recommend this Tao doctor to join the club.

I think that the selfless sharing of technology among core members is his purpose, right?

In Tao Le's hands, the curette is like a small suction device, which can bring out a large amount of tumor tissue between one entry and one exit.

There is an order to scrape the internal tissue, first the outer part, then the upper and lower parts, and finally the medial part.

Because the acoustic neuroma is close to the pons, the location is relatively deep, and it is closely related to the arterial branches at the base, so scraping the deepest medial tissue is one of the difficulties in surgery.

The reason for this difficulty is that the inside of the tumor is not clearly exposed, and it is difficult to determine how much tissue has been removed from the tumor and how much is left.

This step should be patient and meticulous, slow operation, and light scraping, while avoiding damage to the brainstem and the blood vessels supplying the pons, and removing as much intratumoral tissue as possible.

But Tao Le's actions subverted everyone's cognition.

Her speed is consistent, her fingers are steady, her judgments are precise, and she scrapes the upper and lower parts of the body, inside and out, which is generally fast and efficient, almost like a computer that never goes wrong.

It's impossible. Kamura believes that everyone can make mistakes, and only himself and those he recognizes can avoid most mistakes with talent and hard work.

The surgery has advanced so quickly that it is extremely rare to be able to maintain accuracy.

Next, it was the most difficult part of the whole operation.

At that stage, no one can be sure that everything is foolproof.
