Chapter 778: Allowed You to Act Pretentious, but Don’t Go Too Far
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fifteen minutes passed...
Thirty minutes passed...
One hour passed...
The quiet operating theater was filled with a terrifying aura.
The surgical field of view was under a microscope, so the doctors and professors in the viewing gallery could not see it. However, they could see that the person who performed the surgery was standing like a steel rod. For an hour, his body did not move at all.
They could barely see the movements of his hands.
All the operations were performed in a fraction of a centimeter. The anastomosis of the liver and blood vessels was carried out step by step. It was beyond the concept of ordinary general surgery.
Although they could not see anything, no one felt bored. The brand-new general surgery method piqued everyone’s curiosity.
In addition, the person who performed the surgery had the halo of Nobel Prize candidacy on him. Everyone wanted to see the final result.
Autologous liver transplantation using a microscope to anastomose the hepatic capillaries... Was this a surgery that could be performed by a human?
“Su Yun, radiographic films.” Zheng Ren’s slightly hoarse voice broke the silence.
“What’s the location?” Su Yun asked in the operating room.
“Eighth segment, third quadrant, 15° 23′.” Zheng Ren gave an extremely accurate answer.
Immediately after, the screen on the opposite side lit up, and an image that Zheng Ren needed appeared in front of him.
Zheng Ren looked at it for more than ten seconds before he lowered his head again and continued with the surgery.
The image was just placed there, and the people on the viewing platform were a little confused.
“Do you understand radiographic films?”
“I don’t; do you?”
“I can understand a little, but I can’t understand this one. We’re not in the field of radiographic films...”
The person who said this blushed and fell silent.
The person who could understand the radiographic films was standing on the stage and using a method that even the professor of general surgery could not understand to anastomose the capillaries of the bile duct.
How long would this surgery take?
Generally speaking, it was normal for the Neurosurgery Department to perform microsurgery for three to five hours. It was already early in the morning. Even if they did it until dawn, there was nothing strange about it for everyone present.
However, could the patient’s condition withstand it?
Probably not.
Before the liver transplant, judging from the confident look of the surgeon, he estimated that it would be over in two hours.
Could it really be done?
A few minutes later, Zheng Ren had Su Yun upload two radiographic films.
The people present still could not understand it.
The operating theater was full of question marks. Everyone was so curious that they were about to explode.
There was a live broadcast equipment in this operating theater, but there was no equipment for the live broadcast of microsurgery. What was the point of just looking at the surgeon? They had to see the means of matching under the microscope.
Time ticked by.
“Chairman Dong, help me take off the microscope.” Finally, Zheng Ren’s words completely broke the silence.
“Chief Zheng, is it done?” Dong Jia asked softly as he took off the microscope for Zheng Ren.
“There shouldn’t be a problem,” Zheng Ren said.
Professor Yang stood on the stage for more than an hour. Finally, he did not have to be so embarrassed. He began to assist Zheng Ren in anastomosing the large blood vessels and liver tubes.
This was the final step of the surgery. Zheng Ren did it very quickly.
The alarm of the monitor rang in his ears. The patient’s vital signs were being maintained under the medication. It was becoming increasingly difficult for him to maintain stability.
The portal vein bypass was removed and the autogenous liver transplantation ended. The vascular patch repaired the broken end of the inferior vena cava. Then, Zheng Ren released the vascular clamp.
Allogeneic liver transplantation was like changing the engine in a car that had stopped moving, while autogenous liver transplantation was like changing the engine in a car that was moving. It was also necessary to ensure that the car was moving normally. The technical difficulty was obvious.
His eyes focused on the patient’s liver.
The retained liver was ruddy in color, and the edema was slightly reduced. The transplanted liver also began to have a blood flow perfusion. During the visible period of time, there was only a little bleeding in the two pieces of liver tissue, and no bile secretion was seen.
Surgery...
...success!
The atmosphere in the operating theater suddenly became much more relaxed. He let out a long breath. If there were no serious complications after the surgery, the patient would most likely be able to live.
The postoperative complications of an autologous liver transplantation was the overflow of bile, which could cause a serious infection and toxic shock.
The people who were watching the surgery on the spot did not believe that such complications would occur. Even if there were, it was very light and could be corrected with drainage and drugs.
This was a microscopic anastomosis of the bile duct. The surgery had been done to the best of its ability. What else could he be picky about?
“Chief Zheng, you’re amazing!” Professor Yang stood in the position of the first assistant and praised.
“Prepare hemostatic powder, hemostatic gauze, and rinse,” Zheng Ren said.
Before he could finish his words, warm saline was sent to his hand.
He washed the abdominal cavity and left a drainage strip. Zheng Ren then sprinkled hemostatic powder on the wound of the liver and covered it with absorbable hemostatic gauze.
He sutured the diaphragm and checked again. When he saw that there was no active bleeding, he closed the abdomen.
The rest of the steps could be done by a house officer. However, Zheng Ren and Professor Yang still completed the abdominal closure meticulously. It was not until they carried the patient onto a stretcher trolley and sent him to the ICU with an air bag that Zheng Ren heaved a sigh of relief.
This surgery...
He looked at the time. It had been more than seven hours.
The surgery started at nine o’clock. It was already four o’clock in the morning.
The sky turned white. A night had passed just like that.
He had said that he would sleep well for a few days, but he did not expect it to be like this.
Ding dong~
The sound of the System mission rang out. At this moment, it sounded so melodious and clear.

“Chief Zheng, I’m going to see the patient first. Do you have any special medical advice?” Professor Yang came to Zheng Ren’s side and asked.
“No, just follow the usual rules.” Zheng Ren was a little listless.
Seeing that Zheng Ren was tired, Professor Yang did not want to disturb him too much. Anyway, he was working on 912, so he would not see Zheng Ren for a long time.
After greeting him, Professor Yang brought Chairman Dong to change his clothes and went to the ICU.
“Boss, do you have to work so hard?” Su Yun yawned and said.
“It’s not too bad. The key is that it’s my first time performing an autologous liver transplant, so my hands are still a little rusty,” Zheng Ren said.
“I’ll allow you to act cool, but don’t go overboard,” Su Yun whined. “You’ve brought all the microsurgical equipment from the Department of Neurosurgery here. You’ve used less than two hours to complete the surgery, and you still say that you’re unfamiliar with it? If you’re skilled, do you still plan to complete the autologous liver transplant in an hour?”
“It’s not that exaggerated.” Zheng Ren shook his head. He really did not have the energy to argue with Su Yun. He yawned and turned around to change his clothes.
After putting the lead jacket and microscope into the System space, Zheng Ren looked at the sky. There were still three Stage II TIPS surgeries to be performed today. God, why did he always have to stay up late?
After changing his clothes, he left a message for Xie Yiren. Zheng Ren sat on the bench in the changing room and stared blankly.
He excitedly wanted to go to the System space to see what the passive attribute [reconstruction] was!
