"You said, can I reattach my hand?"
Ruan Tang nodded: "If a severed limb is replanted within eight hours, there is a certain chance of survival."
Ma Dazhuang looked at his disabled hand which had lost its lifeless color. Although he really wanted to reattach his severed hand, when someone told him that it could really be reattached, he did not believe it.
"I've never heard of a broken arm being reattached."
"Master Ruan is right. A severed arm can be reattached." Doctor Guan appeared behind Ruan Tang at some point. "Three months ago, a doctor in Shanghai reattached a severed finger into a new one, but this is the only case of this magnitude..."
Dr. Guan talked about the operation with great enthusiasm, as if he had been there at the time.
With such a serious incident happening in the production workshop, Director Yang had someone call the No. 1 Hospital in Yi County and ask Jin Yuren to come and calm the workers. Doctor Guan also came when he heard about the accident.
Ma Dazhuang recognized Dr. Guan and knew that she was a doctor in the county.
He swallowed nervously, "Doctor Guan, can you reattach my hand?"
Dr. Guan agreed immediately, "Of course I can. I've studied that case for three days, and I even went to Shanghai to attend Teacher Li's class."
Zhao Zhongqi opened his eyes after hearing that the severed arm could be reattached, and his gaze followed Dr. Guan's movements.
Only after Dr. Guan agreed to Ma Dazhuang's request did Zhao Zhong's breathing quicken. "Dr. Guan, can you also perform the surgery on me?"
When Ma Dazhuang heard that the temporary worker wanted to kill him, he started cursing. He had lost too much blood, and after cursing for a while, he started rolling his eyes and showed signs of shock.
The factory doctor yelled, "Where's the car? Get him to the hospital!"
When Director Yang heard the factory doctor screaming, he thought the person was dead and ran over in fear.
When I heard that the two were arguing over Dr. Guan's position, I could only say, "Since you both want Dr. Guan to perform your surgery, but Dr. Guan only has one pair of hands, then let Dr. Guan make the choice."
Zhao Zhongqi's face turned pale. He was just a temporary worker. Why would Dr. Guan choose him?
"As Director Yang said, I only have one pair of hands and can only operate on one person in eight hours. To improve the success rate, I will select the transplant recipients fairly."
After Doctor Guan finished speaking, he glanced at Ruan Tang and said, "Master Ruan, please give me your severed arm."
Ruan Tang handed over the severed arm indifferently.
Coincidentally, she also only had one pair of hands and could only replant a severed arm for one patient.
Most importantly, if the patient doesn't trust her, subsequent communication will be difficult, and the two parties will not be able to reach a consensus, which will also affect the effectiveness of the operation.
After comparing the two severed arms, Dr. Guan said, "Although Xiao Zhao's arm is relatively intact, his fingers are still broken. This is somewhat different from the case I'm studying. To ensure the success of the surgery, I've chosen to replace Lao Ma's arm."
The car started and took Dr. Guan and Ma Dazhuang to the hospital.
As soon as I arrived at the factory gate, I met Aunt Wang who was trying to stop a car.
Ma Dazhuang's wife is Aunt Wang, who is Dr. Guan's biggest supporter in the family compound. When she heard that Dr. Guan had chosen to operate on her husband, she knelt down in gratitude to Dr. Guan.
Doctor Guan helped Aunt Wang up and got into the car. On the way, he carefully reminded Aunt Wang what to prepare before the operation and how to be taken care of after the operation.
The jeep drove away, and Zhao Zhongyi was completely disappointed. He leaned against the wall as if he had no support.
"So, do you want to choose me?" Ruan Tang said word by word as he stood before Zhao Zhongyi. "If the surgery fails, you'll face the possibility of infection and amputation. Your wound is right here. If an infection develops, your entire arm will be amputated from here."
Zhao Zhongqi opened his eyes wide in horror, "Willn't that mean I have to suffer the pain of amputation again?" He never wanted to experience this kind of pain a second time in his life.
But he had no choice.
I know that I will most likely be amputated again...
Zhao Zhongqi clenched his fists in pain and squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Choose."
"I choose you."
Very good, doctor-patient cooperation has been achieved.
Ruan Tang performed a preliminary debridement on Zhao Zhong's broken arm. "Where are your two severed fingers?"
"It's still in the workshop." Zhao Zhongqi paused. "I'm thankful that my broken arm can be reattached. As for the two broken fingers... I'll just leave them as they are."
"That won't do. I'm a doctor who strives for perfection."
Ruan Tang and He Kun went to the workshop to find the severed finger and did a simple debridement before the car arrived.
Ruan Tang stopped when she passed Ji Nanfeng.
Ji Nanfeng greeted He Kun and took Ruan Tang to the corner.
"I may have broken my promise. I have to go to the hospital to operate on a patient."
Ji Nanfeng raised his hand and touched Ruan Tang's cheek lovingly, "Alas, I don't want you to be involved in this and be implicated."
"But from the moment I married you, I was involved."
Ji Nanfeng hooked one hand around Ruan Tang's slender waist and tightened his grip as a punishment. "Ruan Tang, even if I go to hell, I will keep you by my side. Even if the sky falls, I will not regret marrying you."
Ruan Tang bit her lip. She was just going to confront Dr. Guan head-on, so there was no need to say any sweet words.
Ji Nanfeng was dissatisfied with Ruan Tang's distraction, so he slid his hand that was pinching her face down and roughly stroked Ruan Tang's lips.
Ruan Tang felt pain and bit his finger.
This bite surprised both of them.
Ji Nanfeng said jokingly, "Ruan Xiaogou, relax a little."
Ruan Tang was embarrassed and annoyed, and finally took another bite to relieve her anger. "You are the dog, Ji Dagou."
Ji Nanfeng laughed and rubbed Ruan Tang's head, ruffling her hair before letting go. "Go, saving people is the most important thing."
After a fatality occurred at the machinery factory, the higher-ups have decided not to allow these people to fish anymore.
The next day, after Dr. Guan finished the operation, they arrested him and several others to deter the spies from doing anything rash.
After arriving at the hospital, Dr. Guan had his own surgical team, and Ma Dazhuang was quickly pushed into the operating room.
After Ruan Tang and Zhao Zhongqi's car arrived at the County Hospital, Ruan Tang had to go find Dr. Jiang Haitao to borrow someone first.
Fortunately, Ruan Yu had surgery in the evening and stayed in the hospital.
When Ruan Yu heard about the arm replantation surgery, he frowned. "I probably can't help much with this operation." Although he was also a surgeon, his main research area was neurology, and arm replantation belonged to orthopedics.
"I'm in need of a deputy."
Ruan Yu looked at Ruan Tang deeply and asked no more questions.
Jiang Haitao was shocked after listening to this.
She had heard that Dr. Guan was going to replant a severed arm for a patient, and Dean Yang was personally assisting him. The hospital leaders and several senior doctors in the surgery department also requested to be assistants. It didn't matter how many assistants they had, as long as they could enter the operating room.
If the operation is successful, they will all be participants in the operation, and their resumes will be greatly enhanced.
This scene has already attracted reporters from the county's largest newspaper, who are now waiting outside the operating room to follow up on the report.
If Dr. Guan succeeds, she will undoubtedly become the second person in China to perform replantation surgery. It's easy to imagine she'll gain both fame and fortune. Even the county hospital won't be able to keep her.
Dr. Guan has more than a dozen years of experience in surgery and has devoted several more to researching this replantation technique.
Ruan Tang was so young. Even if she was very talented, it was hard for her to imagine that she would become the second best person in the country for replantation surgery at the age of 20.
But since Teacher Ruan Congqian had agreed to be his assistant, she had to help.
So, she actively asked to be the assistant. "I'm not an obstetrician and gynecologist, but I can help pass things around."
After Jiang Haitao finished speaking, she pointed to her students and said, "My students can be responsible for recording the surgery."
Well, the ragtag team consisting of barefoot doctors, brain experts, obstetricians and gynecologists, and trainee students was finally put together.
