Cleveland Medical Center is recognized as the highest institution in international thoracic surgery.
Not only do they have the best equipment, they also have the best talent.
They are not confident about the surgery that other hospitals are not confident about.
Akagi Kaede took the initiative and said, "The top priority is that there is only one way, and that is to use an artificial trachea to reconstruct the trachea."
Dean Lu frowned, "As far as I know, there are currently no mature artificial trachea materials on the market."
Kaede Akagi said confidently, "Yes, the artificial trachea developed by many institutions is not mature enough. There will definitely be risks in using it rashly. However, if the artificial trachea is not used, the operation cannot be carried out, and the patient can only wait to die."
Choose death, or choose to live in pain that may appear at any time every day?
It's a hard choice!
Kaede Akagi continued, "Our hospital has been developing artificial trachea for many years. The recently developed biomaterial artificial trachea has very good results. In the first-stage surgery, the treated trachea is embedded in the patient's neck muscles to allow the blood vessels to survive. In the second-stage surgery, it is then transplanted to the tracheal defect to reconstruct the respiratory tract, and the entire treatment process does not require the use of immunosuppressants.”
Dean Lu frowned. Even though Chimu Feng’s speech was full of confidence, he was inevitably doubtful.
In order to increase the length of tracheal resection, medical experts around the world have been exploring for more than 50 years, but none of them has solved this international problem in tracheal surgery.
Was he solved by the island team all at once?
If the patient is an ordinary person, President Lu may be able to let the island team try materials that are not yet widely used.
But the patient is special and is the hospital’s largest donor, so he must reduce the risk.
Dean Lu then asked several other national expert teams.
Their attitudes fall into two categories.
The first is to simply give in and say that you cannot do the surgery. After all, there's nothing Cleveland can do, so there's no shame in giving in!
The second one supports the island team and believes that this operation can only be assisted by an artificial trachea.
When the representative of Great Britain arrived, he began to speak.
Dr. Walter said in a relaxed tone, "I think tracheal reconstruction should be done. However, the island team and I have different opinions on material selection. It is recommended to use allogeneic trachea as the reconstruction material. Although anti-rejection drugs will be used in the later stage, compared with not yet Artificial materials that have been fully demonstrated are more reliable. There are currently many cases in the literature database for reference. For the safety of patients, we must choose a robust solution and cannot deliberately create gimmicks for the sake of novelty."
Akagi Feng didn't expect that Dr. Walter would shoot directly at him, and he was furious.
You must know that doctors from island countries, apart from being sincerely convinced by doctors from beautiful countries, have no regard for other so-called medical powers.
“I stress again that our materials are strong enough to withstand the test!”
Dr. Walter sneered, "Then why isn't it on the market yet?"
Seeing that the two were arguing, Dean Lu frowned and interrupted, "Our top priority is to choose a suitable surgical plan for the patient. Please control your emotions and keep our discussion from going off track."
Walter and Chimu Feng looked at each other and stopped talking.
Zhao Yuan also didn't expect that the two of them would bite each other.
Jiang Bai glanced at Zhao Yuan and saw that he had already made a sketch, with a look of surprise in his eyes, "Do you have any idea?"
Zhao Yuan smiled low-key, "I have some ideas, I don't know if they are right or not."
Jiang Bai knew that Zhao Yuan would often have flashes of inspiration, and encouraged him, "It will be our turn to speak later, and it will be up to you."
Zhao Yuan was surprised, "Isn't this inappropriate?"
Jiang Bai smiled lightly and said, "I know you can definitely make something different."
Zhao Yuan sighed, "Then let me try."
Dean Lu glanced at Jiang Bai.
He didn't have high expectations for Jiang Bai. After all, Jiang Bai's major was not the trachea, but the great blood vessels.
As for the genius doctor Zhao Yuan beside him, he has a high level of expertise in aortic disease, but he is far from tracheal disease.
"Academician Jiang, do you have any suggestions?"
Jiang Bai looked around and saw contempt in the eyes of many people. He smiled lightly and said, "Let my little junior brother say a few words!"
Everyone was stunned and turned their attention to Zhao Yuan.
Especially the teams from the island country and the team from Great Britain, with cold death stares in their eyes.
"What the hell is Jiang Bai doing? I don't have any reasonable suggestions, just tell the truth. Why do you want to push out your junior brother?"
"Does Zhao Yuan really have a way?"
"What can he do? If it's aortic disease, he still has some authority."
Zhao Yuan stood up, looked around, and handed the hand-painted human solution to Dean Lu.
Dean Lu was stunned and handed the hand drawing to the subordinate in charge of projection.
Soon everyone saw the surgical ideas on the screen.
"What is this idea?"
"I don't understand!"
"It's not graffiti, is it?"
"With so many top experts here, he shouldn't be messing around."
Jiang Bai looked solemn and carefully observed the hand painting.
Just now, Zhao Yuan briefly described the operation process to himself, and Jiang Bai compared it with the hand drawing to try to figure out the possibilities.
Zhao Yuan waited for the consultation room to quiet down and said softly, "My plan is to perform cardiotransplantation and tracheal reconstruction!"
Walt was the first to question and sneered, "Changing your mind? That's ridiculous. A clown trying to please others."
In Walter's view, Zhao Yuan's idea was to talk on paper and use a novel title to scare others.
Akagi Kaede showed disdain on his face, "Tracheal reconstruction? I want to see how to get rid of my train of thought."
Akagi Kaede always felt that artificial trachea was the only feasible solution.
More ideas are just supplements on this basis.
Ignoring Walt's ridicule, Zhao Yuan continued to explain, "A person's trachea will have a certain degree of extensibility depending on the position of his head. When he lowers his head, almost all of the trachea moves into the chest; when he raises his head, more than half of the trachea can stretch. To the neck... move the large blood vessels of the heart freely up to the top of the chest, and the trachea can be lifted up another 7-10 centimeters... To sum it up simply, ask for help from the heart below the trachea, and pull up and down to create an extra length. The trachea does not require artificial blood vessels, and tracheal reconstruction and anastomosis can still be performed."
Franz was the first to react and slapped his thigh hard, his eyes widened with disbelief, "This idea is interesting, why didn't I think of it!"
As for the bear country expert Artyom, his expression turned serious.
Obviously, Zhao Yuan's idea was too bold and exceeded everyone's understanding.
Cardiopulmonary tracheal reconstruction is not a fabrication.
Zhao Yuan once discovered this idea when studying Academician Jiang's notes.
Of course, this idea was not realized in surgery and was therefore not recorded.
At that time, Zhao Yuan had a profound memory and secretly thought that Academician Jiang was too courageous.
In everyone's mind, the trachea is only a dozen centimeters long, but Zhao Yuan thought of using the elasticity of blood vessels in the human body.
This idea requires a very high level of understanding of human body structure.
