Chapter 372 The much-anticipated surgery
After James left, Lu Liang felt like his soul had been sucked out of his body, and he sat in a wheelchair with a pale face.
"Am I hopeless?" Lu Liang asked in despair.
Dr. Sun sighed silently and said: "Dr. James is just one of many choices. He has a weird personality, so you don't have to completely trust his judgment."
"But he is one of the best doctors in your opinion." Lu Liang tried his best to force out a bitter smile.
"Yes, just one of them."
Dr. Sun said calmly: "Actually, I didn't plan to bring him to see you at the beginning. It just happened that Dr. James happened to come to Southeast Hospital for exchange and study during this time. I just brought him over to see you."
"His judgment cannot represent the highest level in the field of cardiac surgery. I will take you to see another doctor after a while. Compared to Dr. James, I think he is more capable of helping you."
Lu Liang just thought that Dr. Sun was looking for a reason to comfort him. He had checked Dr. James's resume online before, and it could be said that it was very dazzling.
Do you want to find a doctor who is better than him to help you?
Where to find it?
Domestic or overseas, can I still go abroad in this state?
Maybe I shouldn’t have had too many hopes for myself in the first place…
Dr. Sun looked at Lu Liang, who looked desperate, and suddenly regretted bringing James over in such a hurry.
But having said that, Dr. Sun did not expect that James would be like this. For a patient with Marfan syndrome, he directly advised him to give up treatment without even looking at the detailed medical records?
This is somewhat different from Dr. Sun's impression of Dr. James.
"Although Dr. James has a weird temper, he is still very responsible when dealing with patients. I have rarely seen him persuade patients to give up so hastily." Dr. Sun couldn't help but thought to himself.
It can only be said that for James, Lu Liang's condition may have reached a point where serious study is no longer necessary.
He continued to comfort Lu Liang, but Lu Liang was obviously hit hard. No matter what Dr. Sun said, he had no reaction.
The huge body at this moment gives people a feeling of lifelessness and dying.
In the end, Dr. Sun had no choice but to say: "I'm not looking for a reason to comfort you. Let's do this. I'll take you to see the doctor in a few days. His name is Su Jie. You can learn more about it online."
Give him a moment."
After saying that, Dr. Sun also turned and left.
Lu Liang was the only one left in the empty room. Next door was the basketball court, and the sound from training spread through the wall into the quiet room.
Dong Dong Dong Dong.
The sound of a basketball hitting the ground hard.
Hearing these voices, Lu Liang's eyes became slightly brighter. At this time, he couldn't help but start thinking, maybe Dr. Sun was really not looking for a reason to comfort himself?
You can't just give out the doctor's name for any reason. Then won't the secret be exposed if you check it yourself?
"Dr. Su Jie, is he a more powerful doctor than Dr. James?"
…
…
"You finally came out. If you don't come, I will go in to find you."
As soon as Dr. Sun came out, he saw James who was impatient to wait.
"You shouldn't have told the patient like that just now. This is not the Mayo Center. Patients in China don't like to know their condition in such a direct way." Dr. Sun walked up to James and couldn't help but frown.
"Why don't you like it? Wouldn't it be better to know your condition directly and clearly and cherish the precious time you have left? I think I did the right thing." James shrugged, not feeling that there was anything wrong with him.
Dr. Sun shook his head and did not continue. In fact, he was originally more inclined to James's communication method, but he changed his mind after staying in China for a period of time.
But it would be a bit difficult for him to tell him in detail.
The location of the two of them was not far from Southeast Hospital, so Dr. Sun simply walked towards the hospital with Dr. James, who was as curious as a baby.
On the road in early spring, the scent of fragrant grass and earth wafts in the wind.
The two of them just walked side by side.
Dr. Sun suddenly asked: "Do you think this patient Lu Liang has no hope at all?"
James nodded and said: "Marfan syndrome, the patient is about to turn twenty years old. The symptoms of spider fingers are very obvious. The aorta is like tissue paper and can tear at any time... If this situation were in Mayo, I might still
He will consider it, but here, I don’t think he has any hope.”
"James, you don't understand China's medical level. The hospitals, teams, and equipment here are not necessarily much worse than those at Mayo." Dr. Sun said solemnly.
"I don't agree with this. At least based on my understanding, China's medical level is far from reaching the internationally recognized level, and Mayo Medical Center ranks first in the world all year round. There is definitely a gap between the two, and it is quite large.
Big." James said very confidently.
Without waiting for Dr. Sun to refute, James continued:
"In a situation like Lu Liang's, total aortic replacement can only be performed through surgery. This kind of surgery is very popular even at the Mayo Center."
"The surgeon has to almost completely cut open the patient, and the scalpel has to penetrate deep into the core area of the patient to operate. This is a severe challenge to the surgeon's physical strength, condition, and skills."
"At the same time, the same goes for the cooperation with other disciplines."
"The reason why Mayo Clinic tops the global medical rankings every year is of course due to excellent surgeons, but more importantly, it is actually the hardware conditions of the hospital and the cooperation between various team departments. These factors are also constantly
Attracting excellent doctors to come to Mayo and make Mayo great."
James became more and more excited as he talked, completely ignoring the looks of passers-by around him. Dr. Sun could only silently take a few steps away from him to show that he was not very familiar with this mentally abnormal person.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, James' words made Dr. Sun understand why he gave up treating Lu Liang so decisively.
The operation is too difficult and the risks are too high, and this is not Mayo. No matter how good a surgeon James is, he cannot complete such a complicated operation by himself.
Although Dr. Sun is also a doctor at Mayo, due to physical reasons, his direction is more inclined to scientific research, so he has not participated in the surgical treatment of patients with Marfan syndrome before.
But just because you haven’t participated in it personally doesn’t mean you don’t understand it.
As James said, even at Mayo, total aortic replacement in patients with Marfan syndrome is a highly anticipated operation that will attract a large number of doctors to watch.
The operation lasted for more than ten hours, with two of the top doctors from cardiac surgery taking turns on stage, the circulation team, the nursing team, the anesthesia team...
It's just an operation, but there may be as many as twenty or thirty people involved, not counting the colleagues who work silently behind the scenes.
At this moment, Dr. Sun suddenly felt a little uneasy.
He had confidence in Su Jie, but did Southeast Hospital have the conditions to support Su Jie in completing this operation? This made Dr. Sun extremely suspicious.
At this time, Southeast Hospital gradually came into the sight of the two people, with tall white buildings, bright red emergency signs, and the huge logo of 'Southeast Hospital' hanging on the top of the tallest building.
This is the guardian of the people's health in Badu and the headquarters of the provincial leading tertiary hospital.
James said eagerly: "Take me to see Dr. Su Jie!"
Dr. Sun nodded: "I happen to have something to ask him about."
