In the process of describing the surgical idea, Zhao Yuan mentioned an important detail, which attracted Dr. Badke's attention.
Kouyate's biggest problem now is not the ligament problem, but the expansion of the bone tunnel.
Bone tunnel enlargement is a common clinical problem after failed anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
Bone tunnel enlargement may lead to delayed tendon osseointegration, postoperative knee joint laxity, and graft loosening. However, there are currently few studies on how to prevent postoperative bone tunnel enlargement.
In another world, Zhao Yuan remembered relevant documents: In the animal ACL reconstruction model, the bone volume around the tunnel was improved and the bone tunnel expansion was prevented.
——That is the in situ reverse drilling bone grafting technology!
To put it simply, this technology is still in the theoretical stage and does not have a large number of cases as a basis.
Anyone who tries this procedure is the first to try it.
Zhao Yuan continued to compress Kouyat's psychological expectations.
Only when his psychology is suppressed to the limit will he accept this unprecedented new technology.
A few months ago, if Kuyate came to find Zhao Yuan, Zhao Yuan would never use this technique.
Because the rash use of brand-new technology is risky for Kouyate, it is also risky for the surgeon.
However, Kouyate's current condition means he can only undergo this surgery.
Because he has no other options.
If ordinary treatment methods are used, the treatment effect will be very average, and after a period of time, there will even be a potential risk of amputation.
However, if in situ counter-drilling and bone grafting technology is used, Kouyate will not only have the opportunity to reach the level of a normal person, but even have the opportunity to return to the arena.
All in all, this is a dangerous gamble.
Only someone desperate for a lifeline would take such a risk.
Zhao Yuan didn't want to use Kuyate as a test subject. He still had a good impression of Kuyate. In order to make him accept his technique, he made so many preparations.
After communicating with Kouyate, Zhao Yuan and Badek discussed the details of the operation in the office.
Zhao Yuan picked up a pencil and drew quickly on a piece of white paper, and soon the plan appeared on the paper.
Dr. Badek was initially skeptical of Zhao Yuan's idea.
After all, the problem of bone tunnel expansion is an unsolvable problem in the discipline.
But after reading Zhao Yuan's hand-drawing, Dr. Badek fell silent.
For a long time, he trembled with his hands and sighed from the bottom of his heart, "You are really a genius!"
Zhao Yuan did not expect Badek to accept his plan smoothly, "With your approval, I will be confident. By the way, before operating on Kouyate, I hope to do a few surgeries to practice."
Badek was slightly startled, "Okay, I will arrange several patients similar to Kuyate in the next few days."
Zhao Yuan reached out his hand, and Badek high-fived him.
Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "Try to win this big order."
Badek's expression changed from serious to surprised and finally smiled, "Don't worry, I will negotiate a reasonable price with him."
Badek knew Zhao Yuan's character. If Kuyat was Chinese, Zhao Yuan would not care too much about the cost of treatment, but he was a foreigner and Zhao Yuan would not compromise on the cost.
Baddeck suddenly felt sympathy for Kouyate.
If he had chosen his own team from the beginning, even if he failed to achieve the expected results and chose to retire, he would not be as passive as he is now.
If a good horse wants to turn back to eat grass, it is doomed to be prepared to be slaughtered.
Of course, Baddeck is still very experienced in killing people. He not only makes you spend money, but also makes you feel reasonable.
In this regard, Baddock is very similar to Donkin's little old man.
…
In the next few days, Zhao Yuan used animals to practice the in-situ counter-drilling bone grafting technique.
When they are almost done practicing, they start operating on the volunteers.
The patients for these surgeries are volunteers carefully selected by Dr. Badke and Yao Qiang.
Although the volunteers knew that there were certain risks, when they learned that the surgeon was Zhao Yuan, they signed the agreement without hesitation.
The cost of treatment for these volunteers will be calculated on Kouyate.
A week later, Kouyate's physical condition was adjusted to its best, and Zhao Yuan began to operate on him.
Zhao Yuan also discovered a detail: Kouyate's agent had disappeared.
Apparently, after being reminded by Zhao Yuan, Kouyate "purged" the people around him.
Before the operation started, Zhao Yuan communicated with Kouyate.
"There's something I want to tell you."
Kouyate was a little nervous, "No matter what the bad outcome is, I can accept it."
Zhao Yuan's tone was beyond Kouyate's expectation. He looked extremely relaxed and even a little excited. "After treating the volunteers these days, I found that the probability of your recovery has greatly increased. As for returning to the tennis court, , from one ten thousandth to fifty percent!”
Kuyate's eyes widened, "Really?"
Zhao Yuan said in an extremely affirmative tone, "Yes! So you can completely relax now. A good mood will be of great help to the surgery."
For Kouyate, Zhao Yuan undoubtedly brought him strong hope.
He didn't know that he had been "set up" by Zhao Yuan without knowing it.
Zhao Yuan’s usual mental stimulation method!
The operation is about to begin.
Zhao Yuan reminded the anesthetist, “We need to give three times the amount of anesthesia to a normal person.”
The anesthesiologist was startled for a moment, then responded immediately, "Understood."
A good surgeon is very considerate of every detail.
Kouyate is an athlete. He has trained his body to a very strong level, and he is actually a different kind of creature.
However, under the triple effect of anesthesia, everyone is a younger brother.
Three-two-one, Kuyat tilted his head and fell into a coma.
Zhao Yuan stabbed the pointed blade into the upper part of the marked knee joint space.
Then, insert the lens, connect the system, and the image inside the joint appears.
Badek and Sergey stood in the observation area and carefully observed Zhao Yuan's operations.
Although both of them are masters in this field, compared with Zhao Yuan, they are still lacking.
Zhao Yuan did not choose the front and outside entrance, but chose another entrance.
Because the commonly used entrance has been destroyed by multiple surgeries.
From the analysis of previous images, Kouyate's knee joint was in tatters, and the area that could be moved during arthroscopic surgery was very small.
It's a bit like a mini-game, move the fewest blocks to complete the puzzle.
In the eyes of Badek and Sergey, Zhao Yuan's speed and rhythm are simply art.
It's like watching high-pressure water clean the stains on the car body bit by bit.
It’s like watching the torn black fishnet stockings being sewn back bit by bit...
Stenting technology is nothing new to Dr. Baddeck.
But, in Sergey's eyes, it was simply too exquisite.
