Chapter 934 Take out the heart to flush
At around 12:20 noon, Yu Zhiming, who had finally completed the morning's physical examination, returned to his office and called Qin Jingmo.
After two short rings, the call was connected.
Yu Zhiming didn't mince words and went straight to the point. "Doctor Qin, I'm Yu Zhiming. If you have any requests, please tell me directly."
"Request? I didn't ask for anything!"
Yu Zhiming listened to a familiar female voice coming from the phone, "Doctor Yu, you are now a world-renowned medical genius who leads many medical fields."
"I'm already deeply honored and excited to receive your invitation to collaborate. How dare you make such a request?"
this……
Why does this sound like sarcasm and ridicule?
Yu Zhiming was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking again: "Doctor Qin, are you speaking from your heart?"
"Of course it's from my heart."
Qin Jingmo replied on the phone: "Doctor Yu, your medical achievements are widely known in the medical circle of Beijing."
"For example, we can predict diseases with incredible accuracy, detect cancer at an extremely early stage, and treat advanced cancers, etc."
"Dr. Dong Zhe, our hospital's leading expert in brain interventional surgery, spoke at a medical gathering about how impressed he was by your skills. He said he couldn't compare to you, and the gap was immeasurable."
"Also, Dr. Luo Yu, a leading figure in the field of cardiac surgery, has recently successfully completed several challenging heart deformity correction surgeries. He even wrote a comment expressing his admiration, saying, 'Without your assistance, Dr. Yu, the surgeries would have been impossible to perform so smoothly.'"
After a pause, Qin Jingmo continued on the phone: "Once we have successfully cooperated once, I can also proudly show off to others and raise my own value."
"After all, those you work with, Doctor Yu, are all recognized industry leaders, and the surgeries they perform are all incredibly difficult."
Yu Zhiming had never expected that he would be pushed to such a high position in the Beijing medical circle.
"These are all exaggerated praises from my colleagues. In fact, in the collaborative surgical operations, I only played a supporting role."
Yu Zhiming said modestly, then turned and said, "Doctor Qin, you asked to make this call?"
Qin Jingmo explained, "Oh, Doctor Yu, I just want to confirm..."
"You contacted me this time because of my expertise in neurosurgery and the relationship between my father and brother?"
Yu Zhiming replied in detail, "I have a patient with a skull base tumor. I've asked my assistant to search the country for the most qualified neurosurgeon."
"After many recommendations and inquiries, the assistant finally provided me with a list of three people."
"Among them, your name is."
"Given the good cooperative relationship between me and Elder Qin and Doctor Qin, my assistant contacted you first."
As soon as Yu Zhiming finished speaking, Qin Jingmo's increasingly cheerful voice rang out from the phone again.
"I know."
"Dr. Yu, thank you for your approval. Hey, when do you need me to come over?"
Yu Zhiming explained: "Doctor Qin, you must be the main person for this skull base tumor surgery."
"In this case, I will have that patient come to see you at Union Hospital as soon as possible. You will objectively judge whether surgery is still possible and what the risks are..."
After ending the call with Qin Jingmo, Yu Zhiming called his eldest sister again and asked her to tell the patient with skull base tumor to rush to Union Hospital to see Dr. Qin Jingmo as soon as possible.
"When you're looking for someone, just tell them to say my name..."
Yu Zhiming hung up the call with his elder sister, sat down on the sofa in the reception area, and looked at the food on the coffee table.
Today is Friday, and Zhou Mo's aunt prepared lunch. There is the lion's head, which Yu Zhiming likes very much, and the braised pork, which looks very appetizing.
Yu Zhiming picked up the fragrant and rich Yangzhou fried rice and said with a little pride, "I didn't expect that my reputation in the medical circle in Beijing would be so resounding."
"This is probably a case of flowers blooming inside the wall but smelling good outside the wall."
Zhou Mo smiled and said, "The second largest number of patients you treat, besides those from Binhai, is from Beijing. The number of doctors you've worked with is also second largest in Beijing."
"Plus, your abilities are truly incredible, so it's only natural that your fame has spread throughout the capital."
Yu Zhiming, with his mouth full of food, smiled at Zhou Mo and expressed his approval of her analysis.
Zhou Mo added, "I heard that the young doctors' group consultation and the advanced training for surgeons have attracted a lot of applicants, and their popularity has exceeded the hospital's expectations."
Yu Zhiming took a sip of the turtle soup, then swallowed the food. He said, "The most important thing is to see how effective it is. If it doesn't have much effect, its popularity will only be short-lived."
Zhou Mo said mysteriously, "I heard that Doctor Hong Ye no longer performs surgeries. He's basically been stuck in the lab practicing lately."
"Perhaps, the next time he performs surgery will be the day he reaches a new level and shines."
"By that time, Dr. Yu, your reputation as a teacher who can teach you a lesson will be well-deserved."
At the press conference this morning, Dr. Hong Ye's frankness gave Yu Zhiming a very good impression of him.
"It doesn't matter whether my fame is well-deserved or not. I just simply hope that he can make a breakthrough."
Zhou Mo suppressed his laughter and said, "Doctor Yu, there are already quite a few people waiting for seats in the lecture hall."
"They're really looking forward to your medical presentation tonight..."
It was already past 12:40 when the two of them finished lunch.
Because the afternoon work would start in more than ten minutes, Yu Zhiming did not lie down, but sat down directly, leaning his back against the sofa and closing his eyes to rest.
Five or six minutes later, his cell phone suddenly rang.
Yu Zhiming was a little annoyed when his rest was interrupted, but he had to answer the phone.
He picked up the phone and was surprised to find that it was a call from Luo Yu from the PLA General Hospital.
"What's the matter?" Yu Zhiming's voice was hard.
Luo Yu didn't seem to notice the displeasure in Yu Zhiming's voice. He said cheerfully, "Doctor Yu, I want to inform you that the little girl with the heart defect you mentioned last time has come to me this morning."
"She will undergo a detailed examination in the next two days, and the surgery is scheduled for next Monday."
Yu Zhiming said gloomily, "Doctor Luo, there's no need to call me specifically to tell me about this kind of thing, right?"
Luo Yu said a little embarrassedly: "This is just an excuse to call. I have something important to discuss with you."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes and said, "Doctor Luo, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need for these ineffective greetings and courtesies between us."
Luo Yu said sheepishly, "I'll be more careful next time."
Yu Zhiming first heard two clear coughs, and then Luo Yu's much more serious voice was heard.
"Doctor Yu, I have a patient with severe coronary heart disease here. He has eight stents implanted in his heart."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but interrupt and ask, "Do you want me to help him with the stent implant surgery?"
Luo Yu sighed softly, "Doctor Yu, his condition is no longer something that can be solved with stent implantation."
"None of the patient's coronary arteries had a stenosis less than 50 percent. The vast majority were 70 to 80 percent, and some small arteries were as high as 90 percent."
"Myocardial ischemia is common, and myocardial infarction is possible at any time and anywhere."
Luo Yu sighed, "His heart is no longer in a condition where it can be patched up and used as is."
“So, I have a bold idea.”
"How bold?" Yu Zhiming asked in agreement.
Luo Yu replied: "Doctor Yu, my bold idea is to take out the patient's heart, flush it thoroughly with medicine, and completely clear the blood vessels."
Yu Zhiming stood up quickly, his mind instantly becoming alert.
"What? Take out the heart and flush it?"
Luo Yu, who was on the other end of the phone, was very satisfied with the surprise in Yu Zhiming's voice and raised his voice a bit.
"Doctor Yu, you heard correctly. We're going to remove the heart from the patient's body and flush it with medicine to permanently solve the problem of narrowing and blockage of the blood vessels."
this……
In heart transplantation, a heart that has been separated from the body for five or six hours can be implanted into the patient's body and successfully restored to its normal rhythm.
There is absolutely no problem in removing the heart, flushing it with medicine for an hour or two, and then transplanting it back into the patient's body.
But, isn’t it too drastic to use this method to treat coronary heart disease?
Is the risk too great?
Luo Yu continued, "I also know that doing this is very risky. This is already a weakened heart from coronary heart disease. If I continue to do this, there's a good chance that I'll be finished."
"The problem is that the patient's heart is beyond repair, and he is suffering from coronary heart disease. He is willing to risk his life to try my idea."
After a pause, Luo Yu continued, "Doctor Yu, you have a unique and mysterious perception of the heart that no one else can match."
"If this operation can receive your strong assistance, the extent and duration of the heart wash will be controlled by you, Doctor Yu..."
"My team and I feel that the chances of success for this operation are quite high."
Luo Yu invited again: "Doctor Yu, are you interested in doing this operation with me?"
Of course I have interest, and it’s plenty.
At Yu Zhiming's level, his experience in the medical field far exceeds that of his peers.
Only such novel, challenging and stimulating operations or cases can arouse his sufficient interest.
"Doctor Luo, of course I'm interested, but my schedule is quite full lately and I can't spare the time to go to the capital."
Luo Yu said: "Doctor Yu, I'm glad you're interested."
"Although my patient's heart looks like it's about to fail, it's been holding up for several months. In my opinion, it should be able to hold on for another three to five days."
"I can also take him to your place for surgery"
"Doctor Yu, can you spare some time within three to five days..."
Please support me with monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, etc.!!!
