Chapter 208 More than 100 stitches in total

 Scalp suturing is actually not that difficult. The difficulty lies in the anastomosis of arteries and veins.

For example, arteries include the frontal artery, supraorbital artery, superficial temporal artery, postauricular artery, occipital artery, etc.

If the blood vessels cannot be connected and anastomotic, the blood supply to the scalp cannot be restored, so simply suturing the scalp is useless and the operation will fail.

If the wild boar had eaten Xie Fang's scalp or bit it into pieces, skin transplantation from other parts of the body could be used, such as skin from buttocks, thighs, etc.

Cut off a piece of skin from here, stick it to the scalp and suture it, but this will cause a problem, that is, your hair will not grow back.

When the time came, I was bald with a "braised egg" and there was a circle of granulation tissue scar around it, which actually looked quite strange.

Later generations of cosmetologists could solve this problem by transplanting hair follicles or directly transplanting hair, but in the mountainous areas of 1982, this was an unsolvable problem.

Xie Fang is lucky and her hair is still there, which is why Chen Qi can guarantee that his scalp will survive.

The scalp can be easily solved by suturing, but the laceration on the face is a big trouble. The wound is really too big and the wound is irregular.

For knife cuts, the wound is neat and the difficulty of suturing is relatively low.

As for the wild boar bite, the wound is not only irregular, but also has a lot of skin tissue missing. At the same time, Chen Qi also wants the patient to have very shallow and fine scars after recovery, which is very challenging.

If the wound is small, he only needs to sew the inner layer, and just apply a special medical adhesive tape to the outer skin.

But now that the wound is so big, stitches are unavoidable. Although there are special beauty threads on his hands that will melt and absorb the beauty threads, the wound treatment also gives Chen Qi a headache.

Chen Qi carefully observed a circle of wounds and understood that it was definitely impossible to suture the wound in a straight line, so he could only use wavy suturing.

This kind of suture is curved, like a wavy line, not a straight line. This requires that the skin anastomoses on both sides should be firmly aligned, no more and no less.

So Chen Qi picked up the scalpel and began to carefully cut off some pieces of meat and damaged skin tissue, leaving a relatively clean and neat wound in the end.

This was like using a knife on a girl's face. It might have completely disfigured her. Lu Xiaohui, Jie Ying, and Jin Linlin were so frightened that they felt the flesh on their faces hurt.

Several people endured nausea and fear and continued to cooperate with the operation.

I saw Chen Qi suturing the inner skin first. The needle and thread were relatively thick, and the sutures had to be removed later. When the surface was sutured, Chen Qi had to be careful.

The beauty thread is really too thin, just like hair. The special needle-holding pliers, camera, and surgical scissors are all specially made, and ordinary tools cannot be used at all.

Moreover, in order to ensure the surgical field of view, Chen Qi could not sit still. You must know that this operating room did not even have a retractable stool. He had to rely on his strong male dog's waist to support him and start suturing stitch by stitch.

Outside, the Xie and Chen families were still fighting, and from time to time you could hear men cursing, women screaming, and the screams of someone being injured.

The operating room was busy operating, and the operating room was busy fighting. The scene was in full swing.

Other employees in the health center are a little anxious.

The fight caused a mess in front of the operating room. This flower pot was broken, that chair was broken, and even the newly built rainwater pipe was smashed. I don’t know how many pieces of glass were broken.

Wang Adi was so anxious that she stamped her feet: "Old Yan, hurry up and call the police. Call the comrades from the police station. If this continues, our health center will be demolished."

Dean Yan held a cigarette in his mouth, blew out a smoke ring, and said nonchalantly:

"Who can stop us mountain people from fighting? Besides, it's a household matter, and it's not illegal. There's no point in calling the police. Hu Lin, in a moment, write down all the public property damaged by the fight, and go back to the two families to compensate."

Hu Lin responded and asked weakly: "Dean, what if they refuse to compensate?"

"No compensation? Both families are village cadres. If they can't afford this shame, they will definitely compensate. We can just replace them with new ones. Those chairs are probably older than you."

Hehehe·~~~~

With the dean's calmness, everyone relaxed and watched with pleasure the show of in-laws turning into enemies.

Of course, no one can tell who is right and who is wrong.

It is definitely wrong to break up a marriage, but if the bride is disfigured, then breaking up the marriage is actually the real choice in most people's minds, but it's just that those around them are embarrassed to say it.

At this time, whether it was the Xie family, the Qian family, or the melon-eating masses, everyone believed that the bride’s disfigurement was a foregone conclusion, and that the girl was doomed.

But Chen Qi did not give up. He was still working hard. He sewed every stitch carefully and with very light movements, trying to make the skin fit perfectly, leaving a little gap.

There were more than 100 stitches inside and out, and the two operations took a full three hours.

I also fought outside for 3 hours.

After Chen Qi finished the last stitch and carefully checked the wound to make sure there was no problem, he shouted:

"Xiaohui, Xiaochang, hurry up, give me a hand."

Chang Xihua was quick and helped Chen Qi: "Doctor Chen, what's wrong with you?"

"Nonsense, try bending down for a few hours and see if you can still move your waist?"

At this time, Lu Xiaohui was helping to disinfect Zaineng's wound, her eyes were shining: "Doctor Chen, was the operation successful?"

This is also the question that Xie Fang is eager to know now. Although she cannot speak, her watery eyes look at Chen Qi as if asking for help.

Chen Qi tapped his waist and nodded firmly:

"Xie Fang, don't worry. I have tried my best. You will have a shallow scar here on your face in the future. There is nothing you can do about it, but I just promised that this scar will not be too obvious.

It won’t affect your life.”

Xie Fang's tears suddenly flowed down again.

It is estimated that the little girl has not shed as many tears in her life as she did today, and she is in a state of great joy and sadness. Chen Qi hopes that she will be a phoenix reborn, instead of continuing to live and die.

Xie Ying asked at this time: "Dr. Chen, what should we do next? All 8 of our beds are full."

Chen Qi thought for a while: "Then send the patient to my dormitory, and you can go and clean up. I will need to change the dressing of this patient myself later to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

After saying that, he took a few more glances at the little girl, who was dressed in red clothes and a red skirt, still dressed as a bride, but with her hair shaved off, and felt that he should do something for her.

So Chen Qi took off his gloves and opened the door to the operating room.
