Chapter 456: The Disappointment and Excitement After The Dimensional Reduction Blow

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At Sea City General Hospital, the TIPS surgery had been successfully completed.

Zheng Ren was preparing the foreign patient who had came into Asia for surgery to undergo prostate interventional embolization.

On the other side of the world in the Mayo Clinic, Mu Tao was holding hiscell phone in a daze.

He had been maintaining this posture for several hours, with no signs that he would move.

Like a postmodernist statue, Mu Tao stared at his phone in a daze.

The live broadcast of the surgery had long finished. Many doctors went offline one after another.

Those who could understand the surgery…were none.

Those who knew how TIPS surgery was performed expressed their confusion and admiration for the surgeons in the live broadcast room.

Those who did not know about TIPS surgery would be completely lost. From the late stage of cirrhosis to the gradual disappearance of the portal azygos devascularization operation. From the beginning when the endoscope first appeared, it took eight hours to perform a tumor operation. Until now, this was how almost all endoscope surgeries had been performed.

The development of technology and techniques had changed the environment for surgeons.

Especially with the construction of high-speed trains and the increase in the number of airports, it had shortened the distance between small and medium-sized cities in the country, provincial cities, the Capital, and Shanghai.

Now, it was difficult to be a doctor in a minor hospital, especially as a surgeon.

Twenty years ago, there were countless patients in every city who could be used as practice and allow a surgeon to hone their skills as a primary surgeon.

Those who could receive minimally invasive treatment with a chance of survival would usually opt for that. The old chief physicians who had poor eyesight gradually lost their surgeries.

The doctors in the surgical broadcast room recalled their poast. Back then, when they performed portal vein devascularization surgery, it was considered a major surgery. They thought about how much blood one would lose and how difficult it was to recover after the surgery. All of this was vivid in everyone’s mind.

But now, a single TIPS surgery could actually be done so quickly?

In the past, all kinds of complications after TIPS surgery were difficult to resolve, especially hepatic encephalopathy. The mortality rate after surgery was even higher than portal-azygos vein devascularization surgery. Many people thought that there was no need for TIPS surgery at all.

But now, it took less than half an hour to conduct one TIPS surgery!

Even if it was appendicitis, one TIPS surgery in half an hour could be considered to be at the level of an attending physician.

It was like an unending banquet.

The live broadcast room was bustling with discussions. The doctors who knew or did not know about the TIPS surgery chatted idly, sighed emotionally before they finally dispersed.

Only Mu Tao, who knew the most about TIPS surgery and had fought hard for it, was left alone in a room in a foreign land. He felt cold and alone.

He felt a chill all over his body. It was an indescribable fear.

Mu Tao had been a top student since he was young. He was also considered the cream of the crop. He had always been the one who looked down on the other students, the common folk.

However, this TIPS surgery had made Mu Tao lose all sense of superiority.

Even in the Imperial City, he had never been so afraid and fearful before. This was also the case when he had been defeated by a young doctor from Sea City and lost the qualification to perform a prostate interventional embolization.

Initially, after seeing the medical standards of Mayo Clinic, Mu Tao felt that this was the best anyone could get. After five years of hard work, he should be able to get close to or even surpass the standards of Mayo Clinic.

Of course, he could only reach the current standard upheld by Mayo Clinic now.

After all, there were countless smart people who were researching new technologies here. Every new technique did not lack patients needed to receive treatment.

In a few years, Mu Tao was not sure how Mayo Clinic would be able to perfect the TIPS surgery.

However, in less than a few years…

The surgeons in the live broadcast room had long condensed the complexities of TIPS surgery into looking like a common surgical method. This kind of dimensional reduction was absolutely revolutionary!

In less than half an hour, the punctures were casually completed without any difficulties.

It was the casualness of it all that made Mu Tao shudder.

It was not the advancement in equipment and technology, but rather an advancement of concept and methods.

Mu Tao, who was originally full of ambition and energy, was prepared to work hard in Mayo Clinic for half a year. Recalling this made all his efforts seem in vain.

Even if he learned it himself and surpassed Mayo Clinic five years later, a brand new technique would probably emerge.

At Horqin Right Middle Banner of Inner Mongolia, the intervention doctor was extremely excited.

He held the phone in his hand. A flame was burning in his chest, practically engulfing him.

He would be returning all the medical equipment he had requested for today.

With his connections in Horqin Right Middle Banner of Inner Mongolia, to be able to borrow proper equipment was already a feat in itself.

Early this morning, he was wiping the dust off the machine to make it look brand-new. When he went to return it, a notification tone began to blare from his phone’s speakers.

This was something he had specially set up.

This specific ringtone would cause his adrenaline and dopamine to surge whenever it sounded.

The surgery’s live broadcast room was live!

The interventional doctor quickly turned on his cell phone and set up the professional camera equipment. He prayed in his heart.

It had to be an interventional surgery. It had to be.

God did not disappoint those who were willing!

It was an interventional surgery and the most difficult of all the interventional surgeries, the TIPS surgery!

The interventional doctor recorded the entire TIPS surgery’s procedures. He also noticed that in the patient’s medical profile, in addition to the usual information, there was also the liver’s diffusion-weighted MRI.

A diffusion-weighted MRI of the liver?

Could this be an important thing for the surgery?

To be honest, the interventional doctor could not comprehend how the surgeons in the surgery’s live broadcast room completed the TIPS surgery.

Everyone who said the surgeon was relying on luck to complete the surgery did not realize he was making it look as easy as cutting a subcutaneous lipoma.

This level of skill was not something that the interventional doctor could understand.

He was lucky enough to record the entire process. There were screenshots of the patient’s information before the surgery.

As if he was holding the world’s most precious treasure, the interventional doctor began to study it.

In the hospital, he was an exception.

But he did not give up on himself. He just went with the flow.

He was still trying hard to better himself but did not know where to start.

The surgery live broadcast room gave him the solution. The interventional medicine doctor was determined to move in this direction, no matter how difficult or far it was.

He also knew that he would never be able to reach the level of the surgeon in the surgery live broadcast room. However, that was unimportant.

He had never thought of comparing himself to anyone. He only wanted to learn and master more knowledge and surgical methods.

A few days ago, the patient with lower gastrointestinal bleeding had been transferred out of the ICU. He had recovered and was discharged from the hospital. This was the best recognition for him!

Once there was one, there would be a second time.

The interventional doctor threw the equipment aside. He did not have the time to return the equipment at all as he began to study the TIPS surgery.
