Chapter 124 - Successful Surgery and Appointment Ceremony
"Cholesteatoma, which has its own specific growth pattern, often crawls along the subarachnoid space to the adjacent cistern. After the tumor contents are removed, an artificial passage can be created. ”
"Along this pathway, it is possible to reach areas that are difficult to reach when other tumors are removed. The content of the cholesteatoma is not the same, the one I just cut is harder, but there are many cases, the texture is softer......"
"When excising, if it is more difficult to remove, you can divide it, that is, cut off a part first, eat it little by little, and don't force it."
"After removing most of the tumor, the remaining part of the periphery can be gently pushed into the tumor cavity and slowly rinsed with normal saline to suck out the tumor."
"It's a bloodless surgery! However, when flushing the residual tumor, it is necessary to pay attention to protecting the surrounding cistern sulcus with cotton pads to avoid diffuse cerebral dissemination caused by the tumor contents keratinized and desquamation of tumor cells entering the peripheral cisterna with the irrigation fluid, so as to reduce the occurrence of postoperative aseptic encephalitis! ”
System prompt: "Murphy's opinion +2, Murphy's current friendship is 88!" ”
With such words and deeds, Murphy's admiration naturally overflowed his body, and it is not surprising that his favorability increased!
Again, the system prompted: "Murphy observed this operation, and he has reached the peak of specialization in cranial nerve and related tumor removal." ”
Zhou Qiao was stunned: "......" just look at one, she hasn't practiced it herself, and I haven't finished the operation yet, so she can be only one step away from the master?
It is worthy of the seeds of medicine!
However, Zhou Qiao was not surprised, because it was not the first time he knew about Murphy's talent.
There are apprentices like this, and he is also very happy in his heart!
The operation actually went very slowly, and Ava came over to help Zhou Qiao wipe her sweat more than once, and dozens of songs were looped several times.
The Cloud Palace Xunyin alone has been played five times!
Because this operation is actually a very, very delicate job, and it can't be fast.
It is not enough to describe it with "carved on tofu", because the tofu is carved with a wrong knife, which does not affect the taste and can still be eaten. But this "carved on the brain", "carved on the nerves and blood vessels", it is really much more difficult! It's too hard, it's too hard!
Ordinary people don't dare to do it easily!
As some neurosurgeons in the monitoring room said before, the main body of the tumor was removed, and it was almost done. Anyway, this kind of tumor grows very slowly, and if it grows so big, it is estimated that it will take ten or eight years. Ten or eight years later, I'll talk about it later!
Zhou Qiao demanded perfection and must not leave any future troubles, and he carefully removed the remnants of the tumor step by step.
Migrate adjacent blood vessels, such as petro veins, with insulating materials in the middle of the interval to eliminate external factors that compress the trigeminal nerve......
……
Finally, after five hours, all the nerve was cleared, and the full length and ventral side of the trigeminal nerve were further explored, and no other obvious vascular compression was found.
The brainstem, trigeminal nerve, abducens nerve, basilar artery, superior cerebellar artery, facial auditory nerve and posterior cranial nerve were well protected, and the bone flap was reduced after surgery.
The whole procedure was quite smooth and there were no mistakes, and the intraoperative bleeding was only about 15ml.
As for the samples, they are sent for pathology and may be stored as specimens in the future.
Of course, it is also necessary to consult the patient and family members, in case the other party wants to take it? After all, such a beautiful tumor was cut from his body. There is a certain commemorative significance!
After the operation, Zhou Qiao walked out.
Zhang Jianjun hurriedly greeted him, Zhou Qiao nodded slightly, and said, "Brother Jianjun, fortunately, I am not dishonored!" The surgery was a success! ”
Zhang Jianjun snorted twice, and the "thank you" couldn't be said, because he was so excited, he couldn't help wiping his tears and crying with joy.
When he finally regained his nerve and wanted to say thank you, many doctors and nurses gathered around him, and everyone began to applaud! The applause is getting louder and louder!
Dr. Alona McCrolin and Dr. David Crawford walked over together to congratulate Zhou Qiao and congratulate him on the successful operation!
It was also the first official meeting between the three.
"Dr. Zhou, your operation can be said to be textbook level, I don't know when you are free, I want to invite you to come to our neurosurgery department and do a postoperative report sharing meeting, I don't know if there is such an honor?" Dr. Alona McCrolin said earnestly.
Zhou Qiao said modestly: "It should be my honor!" ”
After all, this kind of prestigious school, he used to fantasize about being able to study here, but he also fantasized about it, because some classmates went to famous schools in the United States, and he, as a peer, inevitably had similar thoughts.
But the reality at the time told him that it was impossible! He should honestly go to the township hospital and live a dull life.
Who would have thought that the aunt who had disappeared for many years changed the trajectory of his life!
Looking back now, the chances of life are really amazing! In the past, those students who came to study in the United States are probably still struggling to study, and they have not even obtained their master's degrees, but he can already communicate with professors from prestigious schools like the University of California!
The UCSF Medical Center, which is actually an affiliated hospital of the UCSF School of Medicine, is not only a position in the hospital, but also a professor in the medical school!
Murphy's mentor, Professor Eric Pascent, not only held positions in medical schools and affiliated hospitals, but was even nominated by the governor to serve as a member of the California Medical Council!
This kind of famous person often has more than one title!
Zhou Qiao said that wait for the day after tomorrow, because the operation has just been completed, and further observation is needed, but it is expected that the day after tomorrow should be fine.
So I agreed to hold a sharing session at 2 p.m. the day after tomorrow in the lecture hall of the Department of Neurosurgery at the University of California Medical Center.
Dr. David Claudeford said he would be there as well.
On the same day, Zhang Mengjing was transferred to the neurosurgery intensive care unit of the University of California Medical Center, where she stayed for three days to observe the situation.
At this time, the Iris Clinic is a little out of place, the wards of the University of California Medical Center are very advanced, and all kinds of supporting facilities are complete, although Zhou Qiao is very confident, but before it is completely clear, it is more cost-effective to live here.
Although the ward here is expensive, he charges 1.1 million dollars, and the cost is enough!
It has to be said that the wards at the University of California Medical Center are quite good and are also equipped with intelligent robots, through which patients and nurses can communicate directly with doctors even when the doctors are not present.
On the first day, Zhang Mengjing was in good condition, and on the second day, it was basically concluded that there would be no functional impairment. That is, there is no damage to the nervous system at all.
On the third day, there were no obvious postoperative complications, such as aseptic meningitis, ventriculitis, hydrocephalus, etc.
Therefore, after seeking Zhang Jianjun's opinion, Zhang Mengjing was transferred back to the iris clinic, and she still needed to recuperate in the clinic for a period of time.
Transport by ambulance.
Although the ambulance is expensive, it is not worth mentioning compared to 1.1 million US dollars.
This order, after deducting various costs, including the cost of borrowing the operating room in the University of California Medical Center, the hospitalization fee of the intensive care unit, etc., the Iris Clinic can earn at least 800,000 US dollars, so Zhou Qiao is not stingy with the services that should be provided.
Although he earns a lot, Zhou Qiao's perfect-level surgical skills are something that money can't buy anywhere else.
Not only is it not expensive, but it can even be said to be great value for money!
In the small postoperative experience sharing meeting of the Department of Neurosurgery of the Medical Center, Zhou Qiao showed extremely profound knowledge and talked eloquently, which impressed many doctors and experts attending the meeting.
And the complete success of the operation, the iron-clad facts, have established his pivotal "status in the rivers and lakes"!
Zhou Qiao's surgery video, after soliciting the opinions of Zhou Qiao, the patient and the patient's family, was also included by the University of California School of Medicine as a ceiling-level textbook case for students to learn.
As for the most beautiful tumor "pearl" sample removed during the operation, it also caused a sensation at the University of California Medical Center, and everyone came to visit and wanted to see the real face!
"Shark Weeping Pearl" is a beautiful legend, this kind of cholesteatoma comparable to the best pearl, is also extremely rare, everyone is driven by curiosity, come to join in the fun, and even take a group photo, it is normal.
Even people from other departments came.
Arond and Dr. Crawford both spoke highly of Zhou Qiao, and also communicated with Zhou Qiao privately about the matter of the visiting professor, Zhou Qiao was naturally disrespectful, after all, he is a domestic undergraduate, and what he lacks now is these names!
After getting Zhou Qiao's permission, the two experts went to operate!
Zhang Jianjun felt that his decision was really right, although he was very confident in Zhou Qiao before, he didn't expect it to be so high!
An operation that even a prestigious school like the University of California recognizes, not only highly respected, but also awarded the title of visiting professor!
1.1 million, he really made a fortune! Isn't it better than spending 1.8 million to have surgery at the University of California Medical Center?
If Zhou Qiao's real strength is used to talk about the price, the total cost will be at least more than 2.5 million!
Of course, Zhang Jianjun paid about 180,000 yuan at his own expense!
Because of this, he did not default, but took the initiative to ask for the bill to be paid as soon as possible, and he paid part of it first.
As for the tumor sample, Zhang Mengjing didn't want it, and Zhang Jianjun also felt unlucky, since Zhou Qiao wanted to collect it, he gave it to him! After all, doctors' preferences are different from ordinary people's.
It is said that some departments have a large collection of various and strange samples.
On the sixth day after surgery, the senior management of the University of California approved the proposal of Zhou Qiao's visiting professor, and as soon as Alona received the news, she immediately called Zhou Qiao to inform her of the good news!
Not long after, Zhou Qiao, who had been mentally prepared, received an official notice and invitation from the medical school.
Carlin Duzhutalo, dean of the School of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, called in person, and after greetings, warmly invited him to participate in the ceremony of awarding the letter of appointment to the visiting professor of the School of Medicine, and asked Zhou Qiao's itinerary and communicated the time of the ceremony.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Qiao sighed lightly, feeling a bit of a fly in the ointment.
In the past, those students who came to study in the United States were in the central and eastern parts of the United States, such as Harvard University, Ohio State University and other places, far away from San Francisco!
If you are at the University of San Francisco, you can also come to the appointment ceremony of his visiting professor!
Clothes and brocade night walk!
Zhou Qiao didn't want to take the initiative to post on Moments or Twitter, which was inevitably suspected of showing off and slightly exaggerated.
Alas~
He thought about it, but still felt that it was better to keep a low profile.
On the day of the ceremony, UCSF was quite a sensation, and the news was posted on the school's website and forums, and many students saw the announcement and came to watch.
Among them, there are naturally many Chinese students.
Because, after they heard the news, they all felt extremely shocked and surprised!
Such a young visiting professor is also a compatriot from the mainland of the motherland! With honor!
Ling Qingqing is also here!
It was the Hanfu girl Zhou Qiao met when he took the three little ones to eat seafood at Fisherman's Wharf before, and the one who played "Sword Like a Dream" with a guzheng. The other party is an international student at the University of California, San Francisco.
At that time, Elena, Ava, and Murphy also rubbed her Han costume.
"Oh my God, Zhou Qiao is so amazing!" Ling Qingqing couldn't help but exclaim, at that time, she thought that Zhou Qiao was just an ordinary person. Who would have thought that he would become a visiting professor at the school in one leap?
When she sees her later, she has to shout "teacher" or "professor"?
Strange embarrassing!
Ling Qingqing suddenly felt a little shy! The heart is restless! Because, she doesn't have a boyfriend yet! pondering, if Zhou Qiao is chased, wouldn't it be more face-saving?
Her classmate asked beside her, "Qingqing, is this the handsome guy you told us?" ”
"So young, about the same as us, this is a visiting professor?"
"Hmm~" Ling Qingqing was still very reserved.
Some other female students, when they saw Zhou Qiao's young and handsome face, many of them screamed, and some even whistled hooligans, wanting to attract Zhou Qiao's attention.
After the ceremony, Ling Qingqing came over to take a photo with Zhou Qiao, grabbed his arm, leaned lightly on his body, and smiled like a flower.
Zhang Mengjing's mother finally arrived in the United States, and she was quite resentful that her daughter lived in such a simple small clinic, but she was shocked to hear that Dr. Zhou actually went to the University of California School of Medicine to give a lecture and got the title of visiting professor!
Even when I look at the iris clinic, I feel that this place is tall!
In fact, not to mention her, even many of her peers, some other clinic owners and doctors, feel that this place has become tall and full of mystery!
Many people came to contact Rachel and asked about the clinic.
Rachel: "......" is naturally a man of all his words, and sometimes he blows a little calf.
She felt that she had come to the right place at the Iris Clinic! With such a boss, the future is limitless! It's much cooler than opening your own clinic!
When I opened my own clinic, I never received so many calls from my peers.
Even, her clinic couldn't be opened, and when it closed, there were still many people who sneered. And now? All express envy!
There are many people who want to apply, but Zhou Qiao is no longer easy to accept people!
People who are afraid that the technology is not good will smash their own signboards!
In order to celebrate Zhou Qiao's honorary title of visiting professor at the University of California, the Iris Clinic organized a team building again, eating and drinking!
This time, Rachel called her family, and Murphy brought her mom! Her grandparents did not come out because of their age, especially because their grandfather was not in particularly good health.
Zhou Qiao took them to eat Chinese food, because it was the fattest season of California king crab, so they ordered a 16-pound king crab, and the store made this super large king crab into nine delicious dishes!
A table full of crab feasts includes stir-fried king crab with truffle and silver threads, pickled king crab legs drunk with peppercorns, rich king crab with flowers, steamed king crab with scallion oil and garlic, crispy fried crab body meat, charcoal-grilled baked vanilla king crab, crab roe xiaolongbao, popping crab roe sushi rolls, and wild rice and crab meat soup.
Coupled with a few other dishes, it was a gluttonous feast, and everyone ate with their mouths full of oil!
After eating, Murphy, at Elena's suggestion, went for a short haircut, looking like Audrey Hepburn with a temperament.
Zhang Jianjun also held a banquet in Tang Yunxuan after his daughter was discharged from the hospital to celebrate his daughter's escape from illness. also invited Zhou Qiao to go.
At the banquet, everyone was polite to Zhou Qiao, and there were also bigwigs from the Chinese gang who happened to dine there, and after hearing the news, they also came over to toast.
If everyone was polite to him before, it was because he was the man behind the violent queen, although he was polite, but on the surface, it was for Luo Ya's face, and he still looked down on Zhou Qiao himself, thinking that Zhou Qiao was eating soft rice!
However, now, the title of visiting professor at the University of California, a prestigious medical school, makes everyone truly admire and be polite from the bottom of their hearts.
A small clinic doctor has become a visiting professor at a prestigious university, which has a great impact on them! Although they are not educated, they respect cultural people very much!
Especially, Zhou Qiao is still a doctor!
No one can guarantee that they don't have a headache and brain fever, and if they or their family members suffer from any serious illness, they may have to ask Dr. Zhou when the time comes! Build a good relationship now and communicate your feelings, and it will be much more convenient in the future!
