As the adhesions were cut one by one, the diseased mass loosened slightly, but the problem was that it was still stubbornly attached at the key points like a rock, with no signs of detaching on its own.
As the lead surgeon, Lin Lin's eyes flashed with determination. He clenched his teeth and thrust the scalpel in his hand decisively. He twisted his wrist and dug out the abnormally attached tissues.
"Hiss--" With a sharp sound, most of the lump was finally torn open, but in an instant, blood spurted out like a high-pressure fountain. A strange force exploded, and the invisible impact made everyone in the operating room shake.
Zhao Ming's face was extremely grim, and he ignored the cold sweat rolling down his forehead. He quickly grabbed a handful of gauze and used both hands to tightly block the bleeding hole.
But the blood still seeped out, as if it was about to break through this temporary line of defense.
He shouted at the nurse urgently: "Increase the flow rate of the infusion, quickly! Prepare some more coagulation substances!" The nurse next to him heard Zhao Ming's instructions and started to operate skillfully.
Lin Lin didn't bother to wipe off the blood that splashed onto his goggles. He stared at the wound, his brain working rapidly, trying to find the source of the abnormal bleeding.
"It's a ruptured vascular malformation. Ordinary hemostasis methods are useless. Use the vascular anastomosis device, quickly!" Lin Lin ordered loudly.
The instrument nurse quickly handed over the stapler, and Lin Lin took it. His hands were incredibly steady. He accurately positioned and operated in the pool of blood, trying to reconnect and repair the damaged blood vessels. Every second was extremely painful. The only sounds in the operating room were the ticking of instruments and the rapid breathing of everyone.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Everyone held their breath and stared at the movements of Lin Lin's hands.
The anastomosis device was finally put into position precisely at the critical moment. With a slight "click", the ruptured blood vessels were initially connected, and the blood flow gradually subsided, like an out-of-control wild horse being reined in.
The corners of Zhao Ming's tense mouth relaxed slightly. Just as he was about to raise his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, he saw the electrocardiogram monitor suddenly issue a sharp alarm - the patient's heart rate dropped sharply.
"Boost the stimulant!" he shouted, and the nurse frantically searched for the medicine bottle. The air was filled with a terrifying anxiety.
Veins popped up on Lin Lin's forehead. He made a prompt decision to adjust his plan. He inserted his slender fingers into the wound, carefully avoiding the blood vessels that had just been anastomosed, and checked for any hidden bleeding points by feel.
Her fingertips touched a slightly raised area, and her heart sank. "There's still bleeding deep down here. Prepare the ultrasonic scalpel to assist in blood coagulation."
The ultrasonic knife was in place, and light blue light waves flickered between the flesh and blood. With a sizzling sound, the blood mist slowly dissipated.
Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the operating room door was slammed open.
Lin Lin paused, looked up, and found that it was the new intern Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu's face was flushed and he looked panicked. He was holding the newly replenished surgical supplies in his arms, but he stumbled and fell forward, scattering the supplies all over the floor.
Xiao Wu's eyes were red with embarrassment, and he stood up in a hurry, mumbling, "I'm... I'm sorry, I was too impatient.
Lin Lin frowned slightly and said softly, "Be careful." Then he stopped and lowered his eyes to concentrate on the stitching in his hands.
She knew that every second was precious and could not be wasted. She also knew that Xiao Wu had just arrived and was bound to make mistakes, so it was useless to blame him.
Zhao Ming said something to his assistant, who then walked over to Xiao Wu, squatted down to help clean up, and whispered, "Don't panic. The more you panic, the more messy it will be. Be careful next time."
After packing up everything, Xiao Wu quietly retreated to the corner, trying to calm his panicked mood.
Lin Lin took a deep breath and refocused all his attention on the operating table. The needle and thread in his hand flashed coldly under the light as he continued to carefully suture the wound.
After the ultrasonic knife stopped the bleeding, the wound condition was temporarily stabilized, but no one dared to take it lightly.
Zhao Ming kept a close eye on the various vital signs monitors, not missing any fluctuations. He would whisper the values from time to time to provide Lin Lin with key information.
Just as the suture was about to be completed, the blood oxygen saturation curve on the instrument screen suddenly dropped, sounding an urgent alarm.
Lin Lin's heart skipped a beat. He quickly stopped what he was doing and glanced at the wound. He calmly judged, "There may still be minor vascular spasms. Prepare a local injection of polioline to relax the blood vessels."
The nurse responded immediately, accurately extracting and delivering the medicine.
Lin Lin took the syringe, held his breath, and inserted the needle precisely into the key position. He slowly pushed the needle in, staring at the spasming area until the blood vessels slowly relaxed and the blood oxygen level returned to normal.
After observing for a while and confirming that Patient No. 26's vital signs had returned to normal, she looked at Zhao Ming, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately started to work on the organ repositioning process.
Under the operating light, the two men had serious expressions but skilled techniques as they operated carefully.
Lin Lin's slender and flexible fingers gently supported the internal organs, and Zhao Ming cooperated tacitly, using the equipment to help adjust the position. Every movement was made with great caution, always paying attention to the surrounding blood vessels and tissues to prevent secondary damage.
During this time, Lin Lin whispered, "Slow down, this adhesion has just been separated, don't pull it." Zhao Ming nodded, and his movements became more steady.
When the organs were put back in place and suturing began, the operating room was so quiet that only the sounds of instruments running and needle and thread crisscrossing could be heard.
Lin Lin's forehead was covered with sweat, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle. The stitches were even and dense, firmly stabilizing the internal organs.
At the critical juncture of the end, the data on the monitor fluctuated slightly again. Her hand trembled slightly, but she quickly stabilized it and said in a low voice: "Check the blood gas and electrolytes again!" Fortunately, it was just a false alarm and the values were not a big deal.
After the suturing was completed and the final check was confirmed, this difficult operation finally came to an end.
Lin Lin took off her foggy goggles and a relieved smile appeared on her tired face. Zhao Ming patted her shoulder and said, "You've passed another level. It wasn't easy!" The two smiled at each other and walked out of the operating room with heavy steps.
After the two of them left the operating room, Lin Lin said, "Let's transfer this patient to your department. You'll be in charge."
"Remember to send the piece of tissue you just cut off for examination. Please keep an eye on his condition and notify me of any changes."
Zhao Ming nodded solemnly, his eyes full of seriousness: "Don't worry, I will keep a close eye on it and will not be careless in the inspection process. If there is anything wrong, I will contact you immediately."
Lin Lin forced a tired smile and patted his shoulder. "This operation was incredibly tiring. Thank you for your hard work. We're all holding our breath, hoping the patient recovers and is discharged safely."
After the patient was transferred to the corresponding department for proper placement, Zhao Ming did not dare to delay for a moment. He personally sealed and marked the cut tissue samples, repeatedly checked the information, and sent them to the laboratory department. He repeatedly urged the inspectors to expedite the process and give priority to the results.
On his way back to the department, he checked the patient's postoperative vital signs. He felt relieved when he found that all the values were stable.
