This shows that the patient's condition in other parts of the body is not serious, which is a very good result.
Geng Yongzhe's hand was about to touch his relieved heart, and he nodded: "Thank you, Senior Brother Cao."
"You're welcome. This is our job. If you have any questions, you can ask Dr. Chang now. He should be the lead surgeon at that time."
As for orthopedics, no one in their class has taken the turn to go to orthopedics yet. The main reason is that orthopedics is a rather unique specialty. It is not a department that medical students must study during their internships as designated by the medical education department, but it is also a large business department. Therefore, medical schools sometimes set up orthopedic classes specifically for this department to train successors.
For example, the National Association has undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students in orthopedics, but they have little intersection with their eighth-year class. Orthopedics has never trained specialist students in their eighth-year class. It is rare to hear that the seniors in the eighth-year class eventually went to orthopedics. The reason is that orthopedics actually requires very high technical skills of doctors.
The top students in the eighth grade class, the ones with the best academic performance, like to go to the two famous surgical specialties of neurosurgery and cardiothoracic surgery. The next best ones would go to hepatobiliary surgery, because the National Association of Hepatobiliary Surgery is the best in the country. If the students with average academic performance want to go to orthopedics, they will be picky about medical students and look down on them, so they can only go to general surgery and other surgical departments.
The orthopedics department of the National Association of Chinese Medicine now mainly recruits students from the graduate students and doctoral students trained locally by its own medical school, and more importantly, directly recruits students trained by other medical schools, such as Beidu. Beidu's orthopedic students are very famous.
Just like when President Wu poached Fu Xinheng, he also poached Chang Jiawei, because the spine surgery department of the National Association was very weak and needed talents from Beidu to supplement it. Spinal surgery will become more and more important in the future medical business in China. One reason is that people have money and start to pay attention to appearance. This appearance not only refers to the facial features, but also the body shape. The spine is the mainstay of the human body, and it is impossible to say that it is not important. Secondly, it is also because the people are gradually getting richer. In terms of cancer treatment, they will not be limited to the removal of the primary lesion, but will try any secondary lesion surgery that can prolong the survival period.
The spine is a common site for many cancers to recur. If bone metastases in the spine can be perfectly removed and the spine function can be reconstructed at an early stage, the patient's survival period can be greatly extended and the quality of life can be directly improved.

The most painful thing for many patients with bone metastasis is not that the death period of cancer metastasis is approaching, but that they suffer from incontinence and paralysis, which makes it difficult for patients to live a good life in the last stage of their life, which is equivalent to being worse off than death.
The purpose of medicine is not only to prolong the patient's survival time, but also to improve the patient's sense of happiness before death.
In the current National Association of Orthopedics, more than half of the patients are cancer patients, some with primary cancer and some with recurrent or metastatic disease, each accounting for half. This business is booming. I heard that Dean Wu wants to recruit more people from Beidu Orthopedics.
You can't just poach people randomly, you must target good ones. Who can help Dean Wu be the eyes that hunt for talent?
Xie Wanying recalled that she had seen Senior Chang going to Beidu three times during this period. It seemed unreasonable to say that it was just academic exchange. She had never heard of any large-scale academic exchange meeting held in Beidu recently.
Senior Chang might be helping Dean Wu as a spy, because after the Chinese New Year is the time when major hospitals start to recruit outstanding medical students in advance.
