But this operation mainly operates on the abdomen. The person with the highest level of general surgery in the Municipal Hospital is Director Lei. This operation is so important that there must be an outstanding doctor to perform it. It is impossible that several doctors are from Guang'an County People's Hospital. The Municipal Hospital is just a place that provides the venue, and the performances are all done by others.
Therefore, Vice President Jiang Fusheng designated Director Lei to take charge and asked him to cooperate well. The operation could not fail due to problems with the doctors in his own hospital.
Li Zheng unbuttoned the baby's clothes, revealing her pink chest and abdomen.
The circulating nurse felt a little reluctant to watch such a small baby undergo such a major operation.
"Marker pen." Li Zheng said.
The circulating nurse calmed herself down and handed the marker to Li Zheng.
Li was drawing an incision line down the middle of the baby's chest, past the beating heart, and extending it to just above the navel.
After marking, Li Zheng went out to wash his hands.
Chen Dayong and Zhu Qidong have returned after washing their hands.
The two of them began to disinfect the bed sheets.
The preoperative preparations were completed quickly and everyone put on surgical gowns and gloves.
"Blade No. 15." Li Zheng stretched out his hand.
Lin Xiaomei patted his palm immediately.
This was discussed with Lin Xiaomei before the operation.
Several doctors were a little surprised, but when they thought it was a baby, they understood.
Babies' skin is very thin and the subcutaneous tissue is very delicate. Using a large knife will inevitably cut too deep. A No. 15 blade can greatly reduce the risk.
If an ordinary young doctor were faced with a baby like this, he would probably find it difficult to operate.
But Li Zheng did not hesitate at all. He cut the blade across the baby's chest, following the incision line, cutting down the skin covering the heart, and then cutting down to above the belly button.
Li Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed the hilt of the knife at Lin Xiaomei.
Lin Xiaomei took it immediately.
Li Zheng quickly picked up the electric scalpel pen and accurately coagulated each subcutaneous bleeding point.
Separate layer by layer to reveal the sternum.
Lin Xiaomei handed over the bone saw again.
After adjusting the depth, Li Zheng turned on the bone saw and began to saw open the sternum.
The bones of babies are relatively soft, so the saw blade is placed gently and the bones are sawed open.
After sawing the sternum, carefully clean away the bone debris.
Li is opening the abdominal cavity to fully expose the internal organs in the chest and abdominal cavity.
Everyone stared into the chest cavity, trying to see if there was any space occupied.
Li Zheng carefully cleaned the bleeding with gauze.
After a careful examination, Li Zheng nodded and said, "The diaphragm is defective, and part of the liver and intestines have protruded into the chest cavity through the diaphragmatic hernia."
Li Zheng's words made everyone fall silent. Because they didn't know whether it was good or bad.
"Is it easy to handle?" Director Lei asked in a deep voice.
As the old director of general surgery, he had never encountered such a situation and was unsure about it.
Everyone else became nervous. If the heart could be repositioned easily, it could be re-implanted into the chest cavity in the first stage, which would make it safer and avoid the pain of a second operation.
At the same time, in the live broadcast room next door.
When everyone saw the scene, their hearts were in their throats.
Faced with such a small baby, everyone hopes that she will suffer less and that the operation will be successful in one go.
On the screen, Li Zheng nodded and said, "There's no tumor tissue, and the lung tissue doesn't show any abnormalities. There shouldn't be any problems with organ recovery."
As soon as these words were spoken, a warm feeling arose in everyone's heart.
Li Zheng did not hesitate at all and continued to carefully separate the liver and intestines that protruded into the chest cavity.
He used mosquito forceps and ophthalmic scissors to separate some of the adhered tissues with blunt and sharp methods, accurately and quickly.
In less than 3 minutes, the organs that had invaded the chest cavity completely swam away.
Everyone stared at the screen closely, the next operation was very critical.
Li Zheng carefully pulled the intestinal tract in the abdominal cavity downwards to make some space in the abdominal cavity, then pulled the left lobe of the liver downwards a little, and pushed the liver above the diaphragm downwards.
The process was not smooth.
The liver appears to be stuck in the diaphragm.
Li Zheng did not force the money back and stopped.
Then use small scissors and forceps to fully separate the incarcerated liver and diaphragm, and then cut open a part of the diaphragm.
The liver was returned again, and this time it returned smoothly to the abdominal cavity.
"good!"
Director Duan couldn't help but applaud.
He was the one who invited Li Zheng, and if the operation was not done well, he would lose face.
The operation went smoothly, even better than expected, and he was more excited than anyone else.
"Very good!" Vice President Jiang also praised.
He both liked and felt guilty towards Li Zheng, so the better Li Zheng performed, the happier and more relieved he was.
Dean Zhang didn't say anything, but his old face was full of proud smile.
Li Zhengke is a doctor in his own hospital.
After returning the liver, Li Zheng used the same method to return the small intestine into the abdominal cavity.
After the treatment was completed, a cavity the size of a baby's fist appeared in front of everyone's eyes when they looked inside the chest cavity.
This is where the little heart belongs.
Li Zheng checked the diaphragm again and tried to close the hernia directly.
"Is it too tight?" Director Lei asked.
Li Zheng shook his head and said, "It's not tight. Because the liver and intestines protruded, the diaphragm naturally grew a bit, so after closing, the tightness is just right."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief.
If it is too tight, the best way to repair it is to use a biological patch, but in this day and age, there are no patches available. We can only use autologous tissue to repair it. For such a small baby, taking additional tissue will undoubtedly aggravate the trauma.
