Chapter 312 Technical innovation of second-hand kidneys

With two days left before the kidney transplant, Su Jie put a lot of energy into practicing the ultimate surgery-kidney transplant.

Urethral reconstruction and vascular pruning planning are the focus.

Especially when Director Dou said that the transplanted kidney this time was a special second-hand kidney and that the renal artery anastomosis might be difficult, Su Jie subconsciously put more energy into the planning of blood vessel pruning.

In addition to working in the emergency department during the day, Su Jie basically chooses to spend the rest of the time in the simulated operating room of the Department of Urology. The kidney transplant model that has been destroyed by countless doctors has become his favorite.

That night, Su Jie finally found time to go to the cafeteria to have a meal with Du Annan.

The two of them have been very busy during this period, and they haven't seen each other for a long time. Su Jie is busy practicing the ultimate surgery, and Du Annan is also very busy in the nephrology department.

As both medical staff, they both understand each other's busyness very well. When they are busy, they work seriously, and when they meet, they cherish the time they spend together.

Many tacit understandings are created silently.

Su Jie was carrying a large plate of delicious food, and Du Annan was following behind him, holding a cup of milk tea.

The two found a seat by the window and sat down.

"He Rong will be discharged from the hospital soon. I hope he can take good care of himself when he returns home this time and not come back so soon."

Du Annan took a sip of red bean milk tea, and the sweet taste made her face soften a lot, but when she talked about He Rong, her eyebrows couldn't help but frown.

"He Rong is going to be discharged from the hospital?"

Su Jie just stuffed a piece of braised pork into his mouth. When he heard the news, he quickly chewed the braised pork and swallowed it, and then asked: "I saw He Rong's checklist yesterday and there are still many questions. I'm going to ask him today."

Are you discharged from the hospital?”

"The beds in the nephrology department are also very tight. He Rong's problem cannot be improved by being nursed back to health in the hospital. He has been hospitalized for almost a week this time and has been treated with CRRT four times. His creatinine and blood potassium levels have dropped to normal. Next,

I can only go home and recuperate slowly, and have regular blood dialysis."

Du Annan felt helpless when she said this. The longer she stayed in the clinic, the more she understood the truth. Doctors cannot cure every patient. Sometimes, in order to give up beds to patients who need them more, they have to discharge some patients early.

.

"To solve He Rong's problem, it seems that the only way to solve it is kidney transplantation," Su Jie said.

"It is too difficult to find type O kidney sources, and He Rong's financial situation is also a problem. Without the support of public welfare organizations, he would not even be able to pay the hospital expenses." Du Annan said.

"It would be nice if someone could help him." Su Jie suddenly said.

Du Annan couldn't help but sigh: "If there really is such a person, then he must be the hero in He Rong's life."

There seemed to be no easy solution to He Rong's condition for the time being. The two of them lowered their heads and ate for a while. Du Annan suddenly asked:

"By the way, Xiao Su, is the Department of Urology and Surgery about to perform a kidney transplant operation soon?"

Su Jie glanced at Du Annan in surprise: "Yes, how did you know?"

"I heard about it from the conversation with the nephrology teacher. I heard that this kidney transplant is quite special. Many people are paying attention to this operation."

"Special...you should be referring to the kidney source for this operation. This operation used a second-hand kidney source, which was donated by a previous kidney transplant patient before his death, so it attracted relatively high attention." Su Jie explained.

"Second-hand kidney sources can still be like this, but if second-hand kidney sources can be used as an option in the kidney transplant library, then more renal failure patients will indeed benefit!"

Du Annan quickly understood the significance behind this operation and said with great anticipation.

Patients like He Rong are by no means a minority. Type O kidney sources are somewhat scarce, but in fact other kidney sources are not as abundant.

Su Jie even learned from Director Dou that due to regional protection measures for kidney sources, kidney sources in this region can only be used by patients in this region. Therefore, many patients from developed areas will choose to travel around the country.

Find a suitable kidney source.

Du Annan's words reminded Su Jie that if the transplant surgery of the Department of Urology of Southeast Hospital really had a great impact on the industry, then the specific performance would definitely be seen somewhere.

Fragrance garden.

Su Jie took out his mobile phone and opened the Fragrant Garden Forum. Sure enough, among the first few blog posts with the highest click rate, there was an article about this second-hand kidney transplant.

While Su Jie was cooking, he picked up his phone and started reading the comments under the article.

"Second-hand kidney transplantation, there are very few reports on related surgeries in China. Does anyone know if this is the first case of Southeast Hospital?"

"It's definitely not the first case, but there are probably only a few cases every year. This is considered a new thing, so you can continue to pay attention."

"Southeast Hospital is very understanding. It found a 75-year-old patient for a second-hand kidney transplant and did a good job in risk control."

Su Jie browsed through the comments and discovered unexpectedly that the turmoil caused by Southeast Hospital's second-hand kidney transplant was far more exaggerated than he imagined.

Within two days of the publication of the hot article, it already had nearly a thousand comments, which is as popular as the "tubeless" percutaneous nephroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy I uploaded before.

But you have to know that what I uploaded before is one of the most cutting-edge technologies in the field of lithotripsy in the department of urology, and there are related videos attached. It can be said that it is full of sincerity and full of useful information.

This popular article only contains a few dry words, and the surgery has not even been performed yet, so the popularity can be so high.

Su Jie studied the comments carefully and gradually understood the reason.

Following this post, not only doctors from the Department of Urology, but also many other surgeries with transplant qualifications are also paying attention to this operation.

Second-hand kidney is a general direction, which means that second-hand organ transplantation is indeed feasible. Once this technology is really developed, then it will be possible to follow the same example, liver transplantation, lung transplantation, heart transplantation... Can these organ transplantations also be possible?

Using second-hand organs?

As Du Annan said, if second-hand organ transplantation can really become a standing option in the transplant library, then more patients will gain a new life every year, and patients like He Rong will also have a greater chance of receiving a transplant.

Suitable kidney source.

This is an innovation in medical technology!

And every innovation in medical technology will bring good news to millions of patients.

Su Jie slid his thumb down hard and saw another comment that interested him:

"I would like to advise the Department of Urology of Southeast Hospital to be cautious. Our hospital has also tried second-hand kidney transplantation, but various accidents occurred during the operation."

"Second-hand kidney transplantation still requires a long-term plan. The most basic point is that when future urological surgeons perform transplants, they must be prepared for the next transplant, rather than performing a fishing-style operation that involves all kinds of arteries and veins.

Trim it to the point where it can no longer fit."
