Chapter 113 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack 113...
If he wanted to have surgery, he could only wait until the people in the operating room finished their surgeries and came out.
As we all know, brain surgery takes at least four or five hours to complete. Su Xiaofang wanted to contact a nearby hospital to admit her, but she hasn't been able to find one yet.
Lin Wei frowned upon hearing this. Sending the patient to another hospital would certainly be a good idea, but it would take time to get there, not to mention other options.
She looked at Dr. Su and asked, "Have the CT scan results come out? Where are they? Let me see." If surgery is possible, let's remove it.
Dr. Su was surprised that she would make this request, but considering that she was there to learn, she eventually told her.
After receiving the CT scan, Lin Wei glanced at the images and bleeding points and said, "Surgery, surgery is necessary immediately."
Brain damage is irreversible, especially since the back of his head was injured, which is the cerebellum, the most nerve-rich area. Moreover, it looks like the bleeding is still continuing. If the intracranial pressure increases and brain herniation occurs, the surgery will be even more difficult. Therefore, the best course of action is immediate surgery.
However, she knew it was useless to talk to Dr. Su Xiaofang, so after saying that, she directly contacted Director Li. As for what kind of fantasy he found out, no one could see, but after Lin Wei's definite assurance and those national medical practice licenses, he still agreed to the matter.
"Okay, but I need to be there. Give me ten minutes." Her voice became somewhat urgent. He was still a little worried. Even though she had a nationally recognized certificate, he didn't dare to completely relinquish control of such a major surgery.
Lin Wei agreed. After hanging up the phone, she called a caregiver to help push the cart. As for an assistant, Director Li would borrow someone from the neurosurgery department.
Dr. Su Xiaofang was listening to her make a phone call and watching her discuss this patient with Director Li. She just thought she was crazy.
Is she crazy, or is the world crazy? She actually wants to perform neurosurgery on someone, and such a major one at that?
But the matter was indeed right in front of her. She thought Director Li would scold her for being ridiculous, but after seeing what she posted, he eventually agreed.
If the emergency department hadn't been unable to spare anyone, she really would have liked to go and take a look, but in the end she couldn't.
In the operating room, neurosurgeons don't really think much of it when the emergency department borrows them. After all, everyone is busy when things get busy, so borrowing someone is quite normal.
Moreover, he was an assistant in a major surgery, and he might be able to learn something from there. However, when he arrived at the operating room, he thought he had gone to the wrong place, because the person performing the surgery was someone he had never seen before.
Has Director Li gone mad? How could she entrust such a major surgery to someone so young? What qualifications does she have to perform this surgery?
Lin Wei saw him and handed him the documents directly. "These are some patient information. Take a look. We'll wait ten minutes. If Director Li hasn't arrived by then, we'll proceed with the surgery."
The neurosurgeon instinctively took the file, refraining from saying anything harsh this time. He began to look at the case file, but the more he read, the deeper his brow furrowed, inwardly cursing Director Li for being a swindler. Why didn't he find someone else to swindle? Wasn't he playing with the patient's life?
When Lin Wei said she had performed many brain surgeries, do you think he believed her? But the neurosurgeon still asked persistently, "Which hospital are you an expert at?" Perhaps she just looks young, but is actually quite old?
Lin Wei shook her head. "I'm not an expert." She had already put on her surgical gown with the help of the scrub nurse.
Seeing that he was about to say something, Lin Wei interrupted him, "Don't ask anymore. Put on your surgical gown. It seems that Director Li won't be able to make it. Let's start the surgery directly." With that, she walked to the operating table and began to disinfect.
The skin preparation was done in the emergency room, and the anesthesia took effect in five minutes, so the surgery was indeed possible.
The neurosurgeon watched as she disinfected the patient, then asked the scrub nurse to turn the machine around and skillfully began using it. The craniotomy drill was installed, and the brain was already being cut open. There was no other way but to grit their teeth and proceed.
There's no other way; we can't just let her have the surgery alone, can we?
When Director Li arrived, the surgery was already halfway through, and the patient's head had already been opened. The entire operating room was filled with the aroma of burnt, charred meat from electrocautery.
Even though he had agreed to let her have the surgery, his pupils still contracted slightly when he saw what was in front of him. The operating table was brightly lit, which allowed him to see the patient's condition very clearly. Her head had been dissected layer by layer; how could it look good? It just looked terrifying.
His appearance did not affect the people on the operating table. Lin Wei continued in an orderly manner, "Gauze, hemostatic sponge."
"Titanium mesh".
...
At her command, the materials were handed over to her by the surgical nurse and then by an assistant.
The whole scene exuded an air of order, just like any other surgery. However, Director Li still couldn't put her mind at ease. At this point, she began to regret agreeing to the open surgery after being told the pros and cons.
If something goes wrong, won't he be the one to take responsibility?
But it was too late to regret it. The surgery was already halfway through; they couldn't just stop. Who would take over if they did?
However, Lin Wei was unaware of his worries. When she saw him arrive, she greeted him, but she was interrupted nervously as soon as she finished speaking.
"Don't worry about me, just focus on the operating table." The more she talked to him, the more scared he became. What if the surgery went wrong by accident?
Lin Wei: "..." Fine. In fact, this isn't even a dangerous operation yet; the glass shards haven't been removed.
Before removing the glass shards, she gave a heads-up, saying, "There will be a little bleeding later, which is normal. Don't be alarmed." Then, without waiting for everyone to think, she began to remove the glass shards.
Blood gushed out like a fountain, filling the entire field of vision.
Ichisuke's heart skipped a beat, and then he began urgently searching for the blood spots.
Director Li clutched his heart, feeling that his lifelong reputation might be ruined by her. How could he have listened to her nonsense and agreed to the surgery? If the bleeding couldn't be stopped, he was doomed.
At this point, he was already thinking of calling in the blood bank, but he also knew that even if the blood bank was mobilized, it would be useless if the bleeding couldn't be stopped.
However, to everyone's dismay, Lin Wei had already said that there would be bleeding later, so she must have anticipated this situation. In order not to worry them, she had kindly given them a heads-up, but none of them listened.
It's not her fault.
Under everyone's astonished gaze, she seemed to have X-ray vision, accurately locating the bleeding points. She electrocoagulated the ones that needed electrocoagulation, and applied pressure with small pieces of gauze to the ones that couldn't be electrocoagulated. In the blink of an eye, the surgical area was cleared.
At that moment, everyone who had never seen her operate before and thought that this was the end for them all turned their attention to her.
How did she do that? Can we say that none of them saw how she did it? It felt like the bleeding stopped in the blink of an eye.
This time, the assistant truly believed in her abilities. He couldn't believe that her skills were almost on par with the director's. He said "almost" because he didn't want to admit that her skills might even be better than the director's.
The main thing is that she's too young. Twenty-seven, twenty-eight, or thirty? She's so well-preserved! She looks like she's 18; anyone would believe she's a high school or college student.
Fortunately, Lin Wei didn't know, otherwise she would have aged so many years for no reason and might have had a heart attack.
The deputy director of neurosurgery noticed the light was on in the next operating room as soon as he stepped off the operating table and asked, "Which doctor is performing surgery over there?"
Operating room nurse: "They're from the emergency department. They're performing a cerebellar trauma foreign body removal surgery."
Others might not know, but Deputy Director Du certainly did. He frowned. The director and another deputy director were both performing surgeries, so how could someone else be performing this surgery?
Curious about who it was, he turned and went into the adjacent operating room. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he asked a nurse for a sterile surgical gown, put it on, and went over.
Then I met a stranger, but I knew the other two quite well: one was my attending physician, and the other was the head of the emergency department. My attending physician was very obedient; he did whatever she said.
However, Deputy Director Du quickly turned his attention to the surgical area. Upon seeing her operation, he first frowned, not understanding why she was doing it this way. But after thinking for a while, he felt that this operation was the finishing touch, as if it was safer to do it this way.
Although he didn't show anything on the surface, he nodded inwardly. Of course, this was only because he trusted Director Li, which is why he was so calm. Little did he know that he was actually quite uneasy inside.
Lin Wei put on a mask and a medical cap, making it impossible to tell what she looked like or how old she was. All that could be heard was that her voice sounded quite young, but it wasn't uncommon for someone to have a voice that sounded young.
Although Director Li hadn't noticed him before, he did later. Seeing that even the deputy director hadn't said anything, he felt relieved. He never suspected that Director Li hadn't stopped him because he thought he wouldn't cause trouble. Otherwise, he would have stopped Lin Wei when she made a different move.
When Lin Wei saw that only one nerve had been severed, she breathed a sigh of relief. If it were multiple nerves, it would be quite tiring.
"7/0 sutures".
The assistant took the tools from the scrub nurse and handed them to her.
Deputy Director Du watched her begin suturing the nerve, not surprised at all. Anyone capable of this level of surgery could suture a nerve; the main question was how well the suturing would turn out.
Lin Wei's technique was clearly as excellent as her craniocerebral surgery; the suturing was both beautiful and smooth. Deputy Director Du noticed a slight difference between her suturing and conventional nerve suturing and asked, "Is there any intention behind your suturing method?"
Lin Wei: "It allows those small nerve bundles to combine better, achieving better recovery of nerve function." Since only the cranium was left, the two started talking directly.
This also suggests that the patient's condition is not dangerous.
However, Director Li was far from relaxed. All he knew was that the patient's head was still open. "Stop chatting. You can chat after the surgery." Of course, he had chatted with people during surgery, but wasn't this the person operating on his student? His fear was no less than if the patient had suddenly woken up during surgery.
Seeing this, Lin Wei finally stopped and finished the rest of the surgery. Before closing the skull, she had the scrub nurse check the instruments to make sure nothing was left inside before closing it.
After the surgery, only a drainage tube remained in the patient's head. In any case, he couldn't lie flat until his wound healed.
Having witnessed her entire surgery, Director Li truly believed in her abilities this time, but he still found it unbelievable. "You learned this in your previous department?" Good heavens, what did he have to teach her? It couldn't be the worst department she had ever worked in, could it?
Lin Wei: "I've learned quite a lot, but there's also a lot I don't know. I've never removed an appendix before."
Can I say this? She's capable of performing such major surgeries, yet she doesn't even have a thoracentesis certificate, and she's never even removed a simple appendix.
