Just as the specialists were about to berate Zhong Nuannuan, the hospital director stopped them with a look.
After inserting the silver needle, Zhong Nuannuan took out a soft tube that came with the silver needle and inserted the needle into the tube.
This was the operating theater, and there were many sterile blood test tubes. Therefore, Zhong Nuannuan inserted the other end of the soft tube into one of the test tubes.
The blood dripped into the test tube drop by drop.
In the four-dimensional Doppler image, there were three magnified images. Everyone was shocked to discover that Zhong Nuannuan’s seemingly casual poke allowed her to insert the silver needle into the largest thrombus. Since the silver needle promoted flow, the thrombus looked like a deflated ball as it shrunk.
The hospital director, deputy director, and the group of specialists were still busy being stunned.
After all, despite being the largest thromboses left, nobody from the neurosurgery department was able to make the cut.
Since the blood vessels in the brain were dense, if the thrombosis was located somewhere deeper and smaller in size, it would be impossible to remove it with a scalpel.
Even as scalpels grew thinner as technology advanced, they were not as thin as Zhong Nuannuan’s silver needles. When using a scalpel, a slight shake of the hand could cause the patient’s head to bleed from the breakage of nerves and blood vessels in the brain. If that happened, the patient’s life would be in danger.
Therefore, after seven hours of surgery, they dealt with thromboses, but there were still three that were stuck deep inside the brain. They could not do anything about those three.
Unexpectedly, the biggest one was easily dealt with.
At that moment, all the surgeons who had always undermined traditional Chinese medicine were overwhelmed by a sudden urge to learn traditional Chinese medicine. After all, as the saying goes, it is never too old to learn.
This acupuncture technique in traditional Chinese medicine was simply too awesome!
After clearing the blockage, Zhong Nuannuan extracted the silver needle.
Although Zhong Nuannuan extracted the needle at high speed, she easily avoided all the surrounding nerves and blood vessels. It did not even touch a single blood vessel.
However, when the silver needle was removed, blood started to accumulate in the brain. Zhong Nuannuan instantly utilized the same method she treated Chi Yang previously—she inserted a needle into the part of the skull that did not get operated on. Then, she used the same soft tube to slowly draw the blood out.
Simultaneously, Zhong Nuannuan’s other silver needle had already pierced into another thrombus that was much smaller than the previous one at the same accuracy and speed.
After the clot was removed, she extracted the needle again. Due to the ruptured blood vessels, it would still take some time before the automatic recovery could kick in. Blood kept seeping out from the spot where the needle was extracted, yet it perfectly avoided pressing onto the surrounding blood vessels. Instead, it trailed along the needle into the test tube.
As the first test tube was filled, then the second, third...
Zhong Nuannuan did not stop as she inserted the third needle into the smallest thrombus.
The group of specialists watched in surprise as Zhong Nuannuan continuously inserted needles into the old general’s head and used extremely small tubes to drain out the blood. On the monitor of the Doppler scanner, even though the images on the three thromboses on the old general’s head were enlarged, they were initially deemed impossible to be removed by a scalpel. Meanwhile, they shrank into nonexistence just like that under Zhong Nuannuan’s needles. Their jaws were wide open.
