Chapter 266: [266] The leader visited the operating room

He, like the other two, sought an internship in Teacher Tan’s group because of his admiration for Teacher Tan’s laparoscopic skills. However, without Teacher Tan’s guidance, he really couldn’t understand.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t understand the images at all. After all, as a medical student, he had studied anatomy and could tell that there were intestines in the abdominal cavity, with mesentery outside the intestines. As for the rest, where the laparoscope was positioned along the intestines, what part of the mesentery it was, if the Chief Surgeon didn’t say, the students could only guess blindly.

This was the technical crux of laparoscopic surgery.

Open surgery meant laying the patient’s belly open, with a broad view, and everything inside the patient’s abdomen could be clearly discerned by the surgeon with the help of comprehensive human anatomical charts from the classroom.

With laparoscopy, only a device resembling a video camera is inserted into the patient’s body filming around, and the captured images are limited to a circle, without a three-dimensional effect. Integrating all these images to create a full visual three-dimensional effect like open surgery was up to the surgeon’s own mental reconstruction.

Visual impairment was one thing, but in terms of operation, the instruments for laparoscopic surgery were much longer than those used in open surgery. Many maneuvers that could be done by hand in open surgery had to be improvised in the abdominal environment using the instruments with laparoscopy. Just conducting force to the far end was a tough question for many doctors.

Many seasoned surgeons who performed traditional surgeries well were disoriented and overwhelmed when it came to laparoscopy, and there were more than a few who couldn’t perform at all.

But if medical students and young doctors thought they could leapfrog experienced surgeons in this way, they would be irresponsibly taking a gamble on luck.

Medical technology is like a pyramid, built layer by layer, and the foundation must be solid no matter what. If there’s a problem part-way through a laparoscopy, an immediate switch to open surgery is necessary.

Look at today, a bunch of young people are all pursuing the new technique of laparoscopy, yet many of them aren’t even guaranteed to be good at traditional surgery.

In this situation, what is the point of a teacher taking on students?

Anyone in the field understands why Tan Kelin doesn’t take clinical students. Why should a technically skilled person like me bother training a bunch of people who haven’t even got the basics down?

Yet today, this technically skilled person allowed an intern, who had only been there for a few days, to get a close-up view of a laparoscopic surgery?

The door to the operating room whooshed open, and someone else walked in. The Circulating Nurse who saw it was just about to intercept when she recognized who was entering and was stupefied.

The students turned around, their surprised gazes falling on the faces of the incoming doctors: No way!

Had the leadership come for inspection?

Was Teacher Tan aware?

Luo Yanfen, Zhang Zhongqiang, and Li Wenhao asked each other with their eyes, and then looked at the man standing at the forefront: Sure enough, it was Director Shen Jinghui, who had not been seen for days from General Surgery Department Two.

Unlike other older surgical directors who were mainly figureheads handling miscellaneous affairs, Director Shen Jinghui, who was relatively young, was a surgical director with real technical skills. Therefore, he often attended meetings outside and performed expert consultations at other hospitals.

Director Shen was rarely seen at the morning handover meetings because of this reason.

Standing at the front, Shen Jinghui wore green scrub clothes, his maskless face appearing lean and solemn. His eyebrows were dark and thick, his gaze held that steady sharpness typical of senior surgeons, giving off the impression of a person who was usually quiet. However, his eyes sparkled differently when they truly flashed. Having such a department head, one could imagine what the style of the people under him would be like.

Following Shen Jinghui was a young doctor standing on his left side, also dressed in surgical scrubs, with one hand casually on his hip, tall and fair-faced.
