Chapter 115: The Hive

"My vital signs are normal, and I can start surgery."

Anesthesiologist Ji Tao said.

"Okay."

Song Sixian nodded.

Next, it is necessary to fully disinfect the patient's head and the operating platform at the end of the robotic arm, and make all the preoperative preparations required for craniotomy.

After the robotic arm is positioned again, it is confirmed that it has reached the lesion point, and the operating platform at the end of the robotic arm is used to drill holes to determine the depth of the lesion, and then the robotic arm is returned to its position, and then the small wound craniotomy is performed.

For the very professional and difficult neurosurgery such as using robots for surgery or craniotomy and retrieving worms, Zhao Sheng also saw it for the first time.

I had only heard that such operations had been performed abroad, but now that I saw it on the spot, Zhao Sheng was still amazed by modern technology.

Originally, Zhao Sheng was ready to use the right hand of God to show his skills, but now with this surgical robot that costs up to 26 million, it seems that his amazing three-dimensional imaging ability is temporarily useless.

Next, Song Sixian operated the surgical robot, removing the skull for a small-diameter bone window, cutting the cerebral dura and cutting the cerebral cortex along the sulcus gyrus under the microscope.

The next step is to avoid important blood vessels and functional areas, find cysticerci parasitic in the temporal region, and then remove them.

Although his divine ability did not come in handy and played a role in turning the tide, Zhao Sheng was still very interested in this latest surgical robot.

You must know that it is not easy and long to train a qualified and excellent surgeon.

Under normal circumstances, it takes almost ten years from a novice to an independent master.

So, what is the process of growing from a novice who doesn't know anything to an independent surgeon?

First of all, it is necessary to take several years of clinical foundation courses, which include anatomy, surgery, etc.

For example, to have double eyelid surgery, you need to know the structure of the eye, how many layers of tissue are in the eyelids, how to open them, and how to suture them.

After that, it is to carry out the anatomy practice on the general teacher, to understand, theoretical knowledge and practical touch, these are definitely two different things, [know the approximate location] and [know the specific location], there is a world of difference.

After that, it is to carry out the practical operation of animals, mice, rabbits, dogs, and pigs, all in order to let medical students get closer to the flesh and blood of living operations, and more intuitively understand and experience the safety of life under the scalpel.

The above process is to lay a solid clinical foundation, which takes at least 3-4 years.

Next, it is the hard apprenticeship stage in the operating room, this stage, just standing and watching, nothing special.

Immediately after that, it is the internship, but don't think too much, it can make you pull the hook and wipe the blood, and the individual instructor will see that your basic skills are solid, so that you can suture it, it is already the maximum degree that the intern can do.

As for the intern doctor on the operating table and turning the tide, even the chief doctor trembled when he saw it, which can only be said to be too much.

Finally, under the guidance of senior doctors, the dismantled surgery was carried out step by step.

For a whole decade, only after these ten years have passed, can I stand on the operating table independently and preside over an operation.

In a long cycle, efforts and benefits are not proportional.

To put it simply, being a doctor is a big late career, and when choosing this profession, you must let go of the idea of quick success.

Soon, the cysticerci that had been hidden deep in the brain under the microscope in the temporal region also appeared in front of the eyes of everyone in the operating room.

Zhao Sheng saw that the cysticerci were vesicle-shaped, milky white, translucent, about the size of a grain of rice, and under the microscope, they were densely packed together, and they were still wriggling.

In addition, under the microscope, the scolices can be clearly seen, and in addition to the suction cups, the crown convex and barbed hooks can be seen on the scolices.

No wonder it can be firmly attached to the brain tissue, looking at the hook with barbs at the end of this cysticercus, if it is enlarged to a certain extent, it looks like a proper [alien].

The thought of this kind of thing parasitic in the brain makes everyone in the operating room feel their hairs stand on end and feel creepy.

Next, Song Sixian used microscopic tweezers to take out the cysticerci the size of a grain of rice one by one, and carefully put them on the gauze on the tray.

One.

Two pieces.

Three.

。。。

Eight.

Song Sixian took it while Zhao Sheng counted it, and there were eight cysticerci that were taken out of the cerebral cortex surface of the temporal region.

These cysticerci are placed on the gauze, and they are still wriggling, and they look very visually striking.

It is conceivable that once these cysticerci have had enough time to develop into adults, the brain really becomes a nest.

After the cysticerci were removed, Song Sixian and Zhao Sheng worked together to repeatedly flush the residual cavity, apply absorbable hemostatic gauze, suture the cereal and fix the skull flap with a skull lock, and finally suture the scalp layer.

When all these operations were completed, Song Sixian breathed a sigh of relief and said to Zhao Sheng: "How is it?" Lao Zhao, this surgical robot is good. I know you feel good, but you don't often have such a good feel. If the hospital can sell a surgical robot like this, the operation of our department will be much easier in the future. ”

"That's a lot of manpower savings."

Zhao Sheng nodded approvingly.

Just like today's operation, if it goes well, with this surgical robot, as long as Song Sixian is in charge of the surgery, Zhao Sheng's cooperation is enough.

Today, when it is becoming more and more difficult to train qualified surgeons, the development of such surgical robots is of great significance.

The operation went well, looking at the time, it was only eleven o'clock, that is, it was over in two hours, which is exceptionally fast for the operation of neurocystis.

After the operation, the girl Shanshan was sent back to the ward, and the itinerant nurse suddenly asked Zhao Sheng, "Doctor Zhao, what should I do with this worm?" ”

"Take an ansecting bottle and soak it in normal saline, and if the family wants to see it, show it to the family."

Zhao Sheng thought for a while and said.

Although there is a high probability that family patients will not want to see the larvae taken out of the brain, there may be exceptions.

When he was an intern before, Zhao Sheng heard a story about an incident that happened more than 20 years ago in orthopedics.

A car accident patient, because the right leg was injured too severely, from the thigh amputation, after the operation, the patient said that he did not want this thigh, and then the orthopedic doctor was a little unsure of what to do.

Throw it in the garbage heap?

No, the cleaner must not be scared to death if he sees a human thigh.

Send to the crematorium for direct cremation?

That's too much trouble, and patients and families obviously don't go to a funeral home specifically for a thigh cremation.

In the end, it was the director at the time who came up with a solution, which was to let the security guard dig a pit and bury the thigh in the open space behind the hospital's garbage room.

Originally, the matter ended here, and after a few years, the chief surgeon almost forgot about it.

But the wonderful came, five years later, the family brought the patient to come again, this time because the patient had cancer, and it didn't take long to live, and they wanted to get back to this thigh, and then buried it together after death, so that they could get a whole corpse.

In the end, it was difficult to find the retired old security guard, and when he asked for the location, he dug up the thigh again and gave it to the patient and his family.

Since then, everything that has been cut from the patient has to be returned to the patient, and the doctor has no control over what to do with the patient.
