When the Doctor Uses A Hack

After entering, he heard Wang Yong discussing something about a micro- invasive small incision and couldn’t help but be startled. The name was somewhat novel; he had not heard of it before.

He turned to look at the other two, who also wore puzzled expressions.

For a moment, Xu Wenbin leaned forward a bit, wanting to uncover the truth!

He was all too familiar with cholecystectomy, as these were surgeries performed daily, but what was this micro-invasive incision all about?

When he saw Wang Yong make the incision, it was quite eerie; even the way he held the knife was somewhat different, and the incision itself was unlike the norm. Why do it this way?

Xu Wenbin frowned; why make a simple incision so complicated? What was the point!

The surgery continued.

He saw Wang Yong’s insufflation needle winding deeply before he started to inflate? Why do this?

And… during the exploration of the abdominal cavity, the laparoscope seemed stretched to who knows where! What was he trying to do?

Xu Wenbin was speechless!

This whole surgery had turned into something incomprehensible to him!

What in the world was this muddled procedure all about?

At this point, Xu Wenbin had mentally pressed the negative button!

First of all, in terms of time, this surgery wasted far too much compared to a standard operation.

Next, during the surgical process, many of the steps were redundant and entirely unnecessary.

The use of the laparoscope was a mess, too many ineffective operations, potentially causing damage to the organs.

After the surgery ended, Wang Yong began suturing, continuing to explain the core aspects of the micro-invasive small incision.

By then, Xu Wenbin had no interest left in watching any further, simply waiting with patience for the surgery to finish so he could get up and leave.

Xu Wenbin couldn’t help but sigh; the level of expertise was indeed in need of improvement.

However, just as Xu Wenbin turned to leave, he glanced accidentally at the patient’s skin where the suture was placed and was immediately stunned!

He noticed that the wound was stitched up so finely that he almost couldn’t locate the incision!

This caught Xu Wenbin off guard!

What was this situation?

Where was the surgical incision?

Xu Wenbin hurried back and took a closer look, and only with careful examination did he finally locate the surgical incision.

At this moment, Xu Wenbin couldn’t help but feel a surge of inner shock!

Such a subtle method of wound treatment!

It dawned on him at that moment; was this what the young doctor referred to as a micro-invasive small incision?

What an ingenious idea and design!

With this thought, Xu Wenbin suddenly felt it would be too regrettable to dismiss it as nothing.

After pondering for a moment, he decided to stay and observe another surgery; perhaps… the young doctor’s procedures had been specific to the case. After all, anyone can have a bad day.

Xu Wenbin asked, “Is there another surgery?”

Wang Yong nodded, “There’s one more, for a patient with cholelithiasis.”

Xu Wenbin uttered an “oh” sound, asking thoughtfully, “What do you call this method of treating the wound?”

Wang Yong replied, “Hmm, Chen Gang’s laparoscopy under surgery micro- invasive small incision, which mainly involves special cutting and suturing of the laparoscopic surgery wound in order to achieve an excellent result.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Wenbin’s eyes brightened instantly; was it really so?

The second surgery began, and Xu Wenbin paid attention to the incision method, nodding to himself silently.

But… when Wang Yong began the insufflation and slightly pushed on the patient’s abdomen.

Seeing this, Xu Wenbin couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the point of manipulating the insufflation needle this way?”

“Why do you operate like this?”

Without looking up, Wang Yong continued his work and explained, “If the insufflation needle is inserted rashly, it might cause injury inside the abdominal cavity; by manipulating the abdomen along with the use of the insufflation needle, the probability of such injury can be significantly reduced!”

Wang Yong’s explanation struck Xu Wenbin like a revelation, lighting up his eyes with a sense of epiphany.

Such an inventive approach.

What kind of young man is he?

A genius?

This is simply a stroke of genius!

After that, Wang Yong had to explain every move as Xu Wenbin kept asking, which left Wang Yong with no choice but to start explaining.

“This way, when you are exploring with the laparoscope, you can actually switch angles to achieve a better perspective change, allowing you to discover many unexpected things!”

“During surgery, you must pay attention to the use of forceps, especially during the dissection of the gallbladder triangle, where you should remember to combine speed with caution; at this point, you could actually use…”

“Also, after the removal of the gallbladder, when you use the laparoscope to examine behind, because many cholecystitis patients will have missed small stones inside the abdomen, which can easily cause peritoneal infection or even complications.”

“See? Here’s a tiny stone that was missed…”

Xu Wenbin and the other two were dumbstruck once again.

So that’s how it is!

I was really being narrow-minded, not realizing that there was genuine substance in each of his procedures, not the reckless moves I thought they were.

To think that such an impressive surgical technique was dismissed by me as a mess.

Feeling this, Xu Wenbin felt somewhat ashamed and his face flushed.

My skills are actually inferior to those of a young man, and I even almost destroyed a talent due to my lack of insight!

Thankfully, I paid more attention in time and managed to stop it!

At this thought, Xu Wenbin took a deep breath, realizing he truly was getting old and hadn’t kept up with new developments, becoming increasingly behind the times when it came to surgery.

He couldn’t help but sigh!

Out of curiosity, Xu Wenbin asked, “Where did you learn this surgical method?”

Wang Yong hesitated slightly before saying, “It was taught to me by Teacher Chen.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Wenbin became instantly curious—was it a self-made improved technique? Which impressive figure was it? He surely should have heard of him.

With a slight smile, Xu Wenbin asked, “Teacher Chen is…?”

Wang Yong replied confidently, “Chen Cang!”

Chen Cang? Xu Wenbin pondered but really couldn’t recall such a person!

“Would it be convenient to introduce us?”

Wang Yong nodded, “No problem!”

Xu Wenbin suddenly smiled and said to Wang Yong, “Young man, congratulations, you’ve passed the assessment!”

Wang Yong: ???

It was only then that Xu Wenbin said, “We are an assessment team invited by your hospital to carry out evaluations. After observing your performance just now, we believe you possess all the qualities of an excellent clinical doctor! You pass the assessment!”

Only then did Wang Yong react!

He was overwhelmed with joy inside!

I passed!

More than two years of hard work had finally paid off.

Xu Wenbin looked at Wang Yong and couldn’t help but smile, “Is it convenient to go meet your teacher now?”

Wang Yong nodded, “Follow me!”

At this moment in his office, Chen Cang suddenly heard the system notification sound!

[Ding! Wang Yong has passed the assessment. Task completed. Reward gained: 1. Level +1; 2. One skill special training; 3. Mentor-student system activated!] ps: At the end of the month, we’ve done in seven days what others couldn’t achieve in a month, the old hands are very grateful for everyone’s support! Thankyou!

Regarding everyone’s support, the old hand really doesn’t know what to say. I’ve been trying hard to release more updates, but I really can’t write any faster. Five updates a day are still quite tiring.

Firstly, I need to write many of the daily routines of doctors, like nurses being harassed, which are real issues. Secondly, I have to conceive of the plot, such as future development directions, and thirdly, there’s also the need to look up many interesting cases, so that the audience can also gain some understanding and even learn some medical common knowledge in the future. Perhaps there will be a lot more science popularization written in the book later on.

So, after thinking it over, from now on, the old hand will send out red packets at the end of every month in the v-group; the group number can be found in the book’s introduction. As a thank you for your support, the first time might be on the night of October 31. Of course, it might not be much, but it is a token of appreciation… Friends who like to join in the fun are welcome to play along.
