Chapter 18 Patellar Cerclage
At two o'clock in the afternoon, everything is ready for the operation.
In the operating room, in addition to Liu Qi and Li Xiyang, there are two other orthopedic assistant doctors, as well as an anesthesiologist.
Lu Zimo was lying on the hard and cold operating table, and suddenly lost his previous arrogance.
"I... I'm not going to die, am I? β
Li Xiyang glanced at him and said lightly, "Don't worry, orthopedic surgery is usually not life-threatening, at most... Amputation! β
"Huh?!"
Lu Zimo's eyes widened and pointed at Li Xiyang, "You... Didn't you promise my mom that she would heal my leg? β
Li Xiyang shrugged his shoulders, "Little guy, there is no certain saying in the operating room, as long as it is an operation, there are risks." β
"Woo woo, you big liar, I'm going to tell my mom, I don't want you to have surgery, I want to go back, I want to transfer to the hospital!!"
"Okay Xiao Li, don't scare him."
Liu Qi's timely opening made Lu Zimo stunned.
Then noticing the smile on the corner of Li Xiyang's mouth, Lu Zimo suddenly understood.
"Okay, you're kidding me, aren't you?"
"You wait, I'll tell my parents and don't let them donate to you!"
"You threaten me?" Li Xiyang's face instantly became gloomy.
"Lu Zimo, you have heard me clearly, the donation that your parents promised is not for me, nor for our hospital, but for those patients who can't afford to see a doctor, and for those who have broken legs like you, but have no money for surgery."
"They are also other people's parents, other people's children, if they don't have this money, do you know what kind of fate they will face?"
"If you dare to joke about this, I will cure your leg!"
Lu Zimo was stunned by Li Xiyang's sudden reaction.
Even Liu Qi looked at Li Xiyang very unexpectedly, and he had the impression that this little guy was gentle and humble, how could he suddenly seem to be a different person.
However, what no one knows is that Li Xiyang's parents were in a car accident that year, and they could have been saved, but they were rejected by the hospital because they had no money to pay for the operation.
Therefore, Li Xiyang later applied for medical university, hoping that in the future, he could benefit more patients who could not afford to see a doctor.
At this time, the anesthesiologist sitting in the corner suddenly spoke, "What Dr. Li said is right, I saw a piece of news in the City Morning Post some time ago,
It is about a farmer in the countryside who went to the mountains to cut firewood, unfortunately his legs were broken by a fallen tree, and later because he could not afford to go to the hospital for surgery, he used a woodcutter to cut off his legs at home. β
"Huh?"
"That's... How much it hurts!! β
Lu Zimo couldn't imagine how a person could have the courage to cut off his legs.
The assistant doctor on the side muttered, "It's not because of poverty!" β
Liu Qi sighed, "I have been in the hospital for thirty years, and I have seen this situation too much. β
"Our first hospital is still good, has been adhering to the principle of surgery first and then paying, if the patient really can't pay, we will find a way to help them make up for the medical insurance.
If this is changed to other hospitals, and there is no money to pay and refuse to accept it directly, what do you think these patients can do? β
"Little guy, no one in the world wants to be wronged, your parents are keen on charity, it's not that they have money and nowhere to spend, they really know the suffering of the poor who have no money to see a doctor!"
Lu Zimo lowered his head, "Doctor Li, I was wrong, I won't make such jokes again!" β
Seeing that the young man actually realized his mistake, Li Xiyang also nodded with relief, "Don't worry, I will definitely heal your leg, but I hope you can promise me one thing." β
"What's the matter?"
"When the surgery is over, be sure to give your parents a hug and say sorry to them."
"Okay, I promise you!"
Lu Zimo said, "Actually, I quarreled with them and ran away from home because they were busy with work and didn't accompany me, I think only in this way can they pay more attention to me.
Now I know how great my parents are, they are both good people, and I must be like them when I grow up, do more good deeds and help more people. β
"Not bad, not bad!" Liu Qi on the side nodded when he heard it.
Unexpectedly, the operation of this broken leg had not yet begun, and this kid's bastard disease was cured first.
Li Xiyang was also very pleased, patted the young man's head and said, "The operation will start immediately, rest assured that you will sleep and you will be fine when you wake up!" β
"Hmm!"
Lu Zimo nodded heavily.
[Feel the trust from the patient, medical ethics +2]
A familiar prompt sound sounded in his ears, and Li Xiyang smiled slightly.
Turning around, he signaled to the anesthesiologist that he could start, and the latter quickly walked onto the operating table.
"In view of the patient's young age, the operation was performed under general anesthesia."
With the slow bolus of the potion, Lu Zimo slowly closed his eyes.
Moments later,
"The anesthesia is over!"
The anesthesiologist steps off the operating table.
Liu Qi stood in the position of the main knife, and his expression became serious.
"Now the right time."
Li Xiyang quickly replied, "14:08 minutes! β
"What about the patient's vital signs?"
"Body temperature 36.8, breaths 19 breaths per minute, pulse 83 beats per minute, blood pressure 118/79 mmHg."
"Okay, the operation begins."
Liu Qi is the chief knife and is responsible for the connection of the broken bone of the right calf.
A 5 cm long longitudinal incision is made in the right knee, exposing the subcutaneous tissue, fat, fascia, and periosteum.
But as Shuye became clearer and clearer, everyone's faces changed.
"It's not a partial cartilage fracture, it's a comminuted right patella with displacement fracture!!"
The patella, the kneecap, is the largest sesamoid bone in the human body.
The patella is associated with the femur and is involved in the formation of the knee joint.
It concentrates the traction force of the quadriceps muscles in all directions, and then stops at the tibial tuberosity through the patellar ligament, effectively completing the knee extension of the quadriceps muscles.
At present, Zimo's patella has a comminuted fracture with displacement, which is a mistake in the preoperative examination.
"No way, the operation must be stopped immediately!"
Judging from Zimo's current situation, he can only do partial patellar resection or even total resection.
But this result is obviously not acceptable to Zimo's parents, and if it is not done well, it will cause big trouble.
"Xiao Li, I think we need to communicate well with Mrs. Lu and help Zimo transfer to the hospital as soon as possible!"
The current situation is too complicated and beyond Liu Qi's control.
But Li Xiyang was unwilling, he just promised Zimo that he would definitely cure him.
At this time, the famous doctor system of the big country was launched again.
It echoed in Li Xiyang's ears like a heavenly sound.
