Chapter 1073: Chapter 879 August the Poet

Fang Liu and Old Xiao Kang were discharged from the hospital after recovery, Lan Xueping also followed Fang Liu out of the hospital, being wheeled in by Fang Liu upon arrival but leaving hand in hand, slowly walking out together.

Professor Deng Jianliang was astounded, he hadn’t expected Yang Ping’s surgical effect to be so good—it seemed that the title "Institute" was not given in vain.

After discharge, Fang Liu left the fire brigade, taking Lan Xueping with him on a romantic journey in that second-hand RV.

Pan Doudou, who had been admitted to the General Surgery Department, had also recovered and was discharged. Upon leaving the hospital, she could eat normally and no longer experienced abdominal distention and pain.

Director Fang looked up the literature and realized that the complex multi-organ cluster transplant that he had performed as the chief surgeon was actually the first case in Asia. He quickly stayed up all night with his graduate students to write a paper and submit it to a top international journal in gastrointestinal surgery.

It turned out that the cherries sent over the past period were not for naught. With this paper alone, Director Fang’s academic standing in the country was set to rise several notches, and with further effort, it wouldn’t be long before he could become a national top figure.

Success can be replicated!

Director Fang was very pleased with his decision. Following the path Gao Yuan had paved was sure to lead to a gleaming future.

In order to foster a better relationship with the nurses of the Surgical Research Institute, Director Fang planned to imitate Gao Yuan; he’d find an opportunity to scold the nurses and establish his authority.

Through his efforts over this period, Doctor Li Min was able to skillfully draw complete anatomy diagrams. Afterward, Yang Ping took him to the anatomy teaching and research office at Nandu Medical University to dissect a complete cadaver, meticulously dissecting every body part from head to toe, lifting Doctor Li Min’s knowledge of anatomy to a new level.

Yang Ping then demanded that Li Min memorize various surgical approaches and procedures and be able to sketch them out. After accomplishing this, Li Min began to participate in surgeries with Yang Ping. Of course, daily basic skills training was essential, including the five fundamental skills, microsurgery, and endoscopic operations. The training was extremely strict, with no room for sloppiness.

Sometimes, Li Min could even perform surgeries using experimental pigs in the Animal Experiment Division—any type of surgery, all guided by Yang Ping’s hands and done strictly according to the normal surgical procedures.

For example, in a coronary bypass for the heart, Li Min could experience the entire process of the surgery using an experimental pig under Yang Ping’s supervision.

Overall, Yang Ping’s demands on Li Min in surgery were to be proficient in a batch, master a batch, and witness a batch—using these three tiers of requirements to conquer all skills at hand.

Surgeries like coronary bypass, scoliosis correction, and brainstem tumor removal fell into the category of those to be witnessed—he wasn’t expected to master them, but with frequent participation, Li Min naturally grasped these surgeries to varying degrees.

As for surgeries in General Surgery, Urological Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Trauma Orthopedics, Li Min mastered them all proficiently. He could even perform a signature large-scale General Surgery like pancreaticoduodenectomy quite competently.

Yang Ping required that Li Min not only learn to expertly read X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, and perform surface ultrasound but also to perform these examinations by himself. With a solid grasp of anatomical knowledge, Li Min learned quickly in practice.

Throughout the learning process, Yang Ping personally explained the fundamentals of medical science, including physiology, biochemistry, pathology, and pathophysiology, to help him better understand clinical knowledge.

With Yang Ping, Li Min was essentially relearning basic and clinical medical sciences from scratch, and without realizing it, both his theoretical knowledge and surgical practice skyrocketed.

Li Min could not only perform surgeries at the Surgical Research Institute but also at the Trauma Emergency Center and all the surgical departments, and it was always a Department Director who personally guided him. Yang Ping had spoken to each Department Director, even Director Mei from Obstetrics and Gynecology who offered her support, personally taking Li Min through a Caesarean section.

It could be said that Li Min was trained by Yang Ping at Sanbo Hospital to become a versatile surgeon.

The European Spinal Surgery Academic Annual Conference was approaching, and August was brimming with confidence for this academic meeting, aiming to be re-elected as the president of the society.

August was already ahead of the British in the field of spinal surgery. Not only did he master the most advanced Yang-style osteotomy in the world, but he was also proficient in treating scoliosis with new external fixation device technologies. As one of the main researchers in the cutting-edge precise epiphyseal arrest technique for treating scoliosis, he stood firmly at the pinnacle of the spinal surgery pyramid in Europe, along with his expertise in upper cervical spine surgery techniques, non-leakage resection of spinal tumors, and numerous other top-notch new technologies.

A new subject in spinal surgery, the precise epiphyseal arrest technique for treating scoliosis in adolescents, had completed its animal testing phase with very promising data.

This international collaborative project, involving Sanbo Hospital, Nandu Affiliated Hospital No. 1, Xiehe Hospital, and German hospitals, carried out animal experiments in both China and Europe. Once the animal experiments concluded, they moved on to clinical trials immediately.

The main highlight of this technology is that it doesn’t require surgery, nor does it need external fixation devices. No matter how severe the scoliosis and as long as the age is appropriate with sufficient growth potential, a type of epiphyseal regulator can be implanted into various points on the spine. This regulator can stimulate or inhibit the growth of the epiphyses, thus achieving the goal of manipulating the spine to correct its shape during growth.
