When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 24: Classic Suture Case of a Damaged Tendon (Additional, frantically hinting…)

Translator: 549690339

There’s a video?

This could be a solid piece of evidence!

Qin Xiaoyuan snorted coldly in his heart, thinking, just wait until I watch the video, then I’ll deal with you!

You arrogant kid.

An Yanjun was taken aback, damn it, right, the treatment room has video surveillance to prevent accidents, and it can also record the surgical process—this is bad!

What if this kid causes trouble? Doesn’t this just provide evidence?

The two experts from the Provincial People’s Hospital sighed and exchanged glances, “Let’s watch the video first.”

The video needs to be retrieved from the monitoring center; it’s not in the emergency department.

Continuing to stay here is pointless, might as well head straight to the monitoring center.

All the way there, Qin Xiaoyuan had a dark expression, silent with a blackened face, while Zhang Keqin was full of trepidation, this was more unsettling than facing a criminal.

Meanwhile, Liu Siqi and Tan Zhonglin were much calmer, “Everyone, don’t rush, let’s watch the video first. If the problem is really serious, we can always perform the surgery again.”

When Tan Zhonglin said this, he didn’t have much confidence himself.

It’s not that simple!

Upon arriving at the monitoring center and explaining their purpose, the staff quickly retrieved the surveillance footage. The special footage from dedicated cameras could be zoomed in, and even the sound was audible.

An Yanjun was constantly thinking of countermeasures at this time!

And Qin Yue, the tag-along, sighed, “These leaders are really not making things easy.”

As for Chen Cang, the on-duty doctor couldn’t just leave his post.

Skipping the beginning scenes, they went straight into the surgery.

Chen Cang was using tweezers to search for scattered iron filings and fragments. It was evident that Chen Cang’s basic skills were solid, bold yet meticulous.

Qin Xiaoyuan was an internist, not a surgeon, but his long-term clinical experience still allowed him to discern certain things.

The suturing phase was coming up, and everyone observed patiently,

Qin Xiaoyuan couldn’t help but say, “Director Liu, Director Tan, pay close attention. If there’s anything not done properly, it must be spotted in time.”

Tan Zhonglin and Liu Siqi nodded silently.

But as they watched Wu Gang’s wrist and back of the hand through the camera, up close, their brows furrowed involuntarily.

The degree of injury was too severe!

The skin was heavily damaged, with exposed blood vessels, and many tendons were destructively injured.

The color of the blood was terrible!

Tan Zhonglin couldn’t help but sigh, “The extent of damage is indeed troublesome. The young man was right, delaying the surgery for too long is not conducive to later recovery.”

Zhang Keqin opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say.

Tan Zhonglin continued, “To be honest, even if I were to stitch the tendon, I can’t guarantee it would recover to its original state, given… the difficulty is too great.”

“But… this young doctor was still a bit hasty…”

Before Tan Zhonglin could finish, he didn’t continue because Chen Cang had already begun the procedure!

“He’s too hasty, not just a bit. Such an urgent surgery without enough time to judge the angle of tendon suturing and the technique used, it’s simply recklessness!”

Chen Cang clamped the end of the tendon with a hemostatic forceps, took a 30cm long silk thread, and threaded it through fine straight needles at both ends. He penetrated the tendon transversely at 1.5cm from the end, pulled it through to make both sides of the thread equal in length, then entered the needle adjacent to the exit point, crossing diagonally towards the end and symmetrically through the tendon. This cross-stitching was done 2-3 times, finally exiting at 3mm from the side of the hemostatic forceps…

Dean Qin sighed, no, after this I’ll need to talk to the director of emergency about it.

However, Liu Siqi was soon stunned!

Wasn’t that needling too fast?

And his understanding of tendons too profound, otherwise such accuracy would be impossible!

This young man was no simple character!

Just by that one action of needling, Liu Siqi had to take it seriously.

Compared to Liu Siqi, Tan Zhonglin was even more frowning!

He noticed something very strange yet interesting, that Chen Cang during the suturing always had a good grasp on the position of the tendon, especially where the needle tip landed!

Suddenly Tan Zhonglin’s face changed!

Impossible!

This absolutely can’t be.

The match between the two Achilles tendons was so high?

Tan Zhonglin was dumbfounded.

He had been observing Chen Cang threading the steel wire through the tendon, but he noticed, the match of the sutured tendon—was so precise!

What did that imply?

“`

The higher the degree of alignment, the lower the probability of injury, the faster the healing speed, and the lower the chance of adhesion!

“There’s no way the alignment could be this precise.”

“Is this a coincidence?”

“But isn’t this coincidence a bit too convenient?”

“It must be a coincidence!”

Tan Zhonglin would bet on it, after all, even he might not be able to achieve such a high degree of precision.

However, the following scenes pierced his chest like sharp arrows!

“Such high alignment again!”

“Again!”

Perfect alignment of the abductor pollicis longus tendon achieved!

Perfect suturing of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon achieved!

Tendons of the flexor carpi radialis succeeded again!

“It’s brilliant!”

Tan Zhonglin couldn’t help but applaud and cheer!

“Fantastic!”

This caught the people around him off guard.

Director Qin was taken aback, sighed, and thought, “It’s done… shot!”

“Director Tan is laughing out of frustration, this kid… is making trouble for me…”

Zhang Keqin and Director Qin exchanged glances, a faint sadness spreading in their hearts.

As for Liu Siqi, he said nothing and even took out his phone to start filming!

The tendon was quickly sutured!

Then came the blood vessel suturing, standard and unexceptional!

And finally, the skin?

Wait a minute…

This skin suturing… it’s quite beautiful?

No!

Can skin be sutured to such an extent, with this level of completeness?

“That’s… impossible!”

With this thought, Tan Zhonglin turned around and said to the staff, “Rewind the video to before the surgery began!”

Quickly, the staff retrieved the video, and everybody saw the extent of Wu Gang’s skin damage before the surgery began!

Then Tan Zhonglin cut back to the current scene for comparison!

Everyone was stunned!

Because the skin was bloody and fuzzy before, but now… the sutured skin was very smooth, it could even be called beautiful.

“How advanced are the suturing skills required for this?”

Especially the mastery of skin is impressively skillful, truly deft hands!

Zhang Keqin couldn’t resist saying, “This… Director Liu, Director Tan, is there still a chance?”

Tan Zhonglin frowned: “Play it again, slow down the tendon suturing, set it to 0.5 times speed.”

The staff nodded.

Tan Zhonglin hurriedly took out his phone and started filming!

This suturing was too successful, it can be called a classic case of suturing a damaged tendon.

It holds great research value.

Moreover, even Tan Zhonglin wasn’t entirely certain he could do it as well.

Thinking this, Tan Zhonglin marvelled at the screen:

“Medicine truly is a discipline that requires talent.”

Especially surgery!
