Chapter 921: Chapter 800 One-Stroke Flow_3

They had no idea how the surgery was progressing, or whether there were any difficulties. Such waiting was extremely agonizing.

The surgery had already been underway for over three hours. Xiao Su had just come to deliver Yang Ping’s lunch, as her home was close to the hospital. Xiao Su, currently not working, brought meals to Yang Ping every day, also taking the opportunity to get some exercise and improve her circulation.

When the nurse from the operating room opened the door to take the meals Xiao Su brought, Mai Jifu seized the chance to ask anxiously, "Nurse, how is Mai Zijing’s surgery going?"

The nurse glanced at Mai Jifu, "Are you his father?"

Mai Jifu nodded.

"The surgery is going smoothly, and it’s still in progress. Professor Yang is the chief surgeon. Don’t worry, try not to be so nervous. There’s a television over there you can watch. We’ll notify you when it’s done."

Hearing that the surgery was progressing smoothly, Mai Jifu and his wife felt a slight sense of relief.

The door to the operating room closed again, and Xiao Su sat down in the family waiting area, comforting the couple, "Don’t worry too much. Professor Yang has handled even more difficult cases than this one, with children younger than your son. Relax and watch some television."

The operating room’s TV was a digital one, offering not only regular movies and TV series but also containing some videos promoting classic cases from the General Surgery Department. Xiao Su pulled up these videos on the touch-controlled screen to play for the couple, hoping it might alleviate some of their anxiety.

Five-segment reattachment, Half-Man, Folding Man, and congenital heart defects of Mirror Man from Yemen, and other surgical procedure introductions played on the video. Indeed, this tactic proved effective, as Mai Jifu and his wife became much calmer.

Mai Jifu’s wife, An Yinghui, also started chatting with Xiao Su, who kept assuring her of how proficient Professor Yang, the chief surgeon, was and that he would give it his all.

"Man proposes, God disposes," Mai Jifu thought to himself, which somewhat settled his heart.

After more than three hours, the surgery for total cardiac chamber reconstruction was nearing completion with fast, rhythmic stitching that amazed Academician Wang. He was grateful he had personally come to Sanbo Hospital; otherwise, he would have missed one of the top surgeries in the world.

In just over three hours, the total chamber reconstruction had been completed. If he had been performing the surgery, it would probably take ten hours.

Such stitching speed and quality, he feared, could not be found in another in the world, which is why it was no surprise that he could complete the entire surgery within six hours. It was also no wonder he didn’t need to pay too much attention to this case, because in his hands, it really was just a routine case.

This wasn’t making light of something heavy; for him, it was genuinely light.

Throughout the surgery, there was no sign of tension or pressure; the entire process was very relaxed, as if performing an operation that couldn’t be more ordinary. One could even often hear the chief surgeon and his assistant chatting.

The entire surgery progressed step by step without any ineffective or repetitive movements. This was the sign of utmost proficiency.

Even the stitches left behind were a source of aesthetic pleasure.

Academician Wang reflected that a person capable of leading the world in the field of cardiac surgery was emerging.

The next step was the switching of the aorta and pulmonary artery, which, compared to the total cardiac chamber reconstruction, was clearer. The aorta and pulmonary artery were severed from their roots, switched places, and then reconnected.

The demands for stitching major blood vessels were extremely high, because the aorta and pulmonary artery are directly connected to the heart, which generates considerable pressure during contraction and ejection of blood. If the stitch quality was substandard, the anastomosed site would burst open.

Therefore, when operating on the heart, not one stitch could be taken for granted.

"Do you have Professor Yang’s WeChat?" Academician Wang couldn’t help asking.

Professor Xin nodded, "I’ve always maintained contact with him through WeChat."

"Make sure to share his WeChat with me, too. I should also add him. The young man is a genius in cardiac surgery; we need to make an effort to snatch him up," said Academician Wang before immediately returning his attention to the surgical video.

Watching surgeries like this was indeed uncomfortable with age; the heart needed to be strong, and watching Yang Ping’s surgery was like watching "Fast and Furious" in the city center, too fast and with high-risk maneuvers, hence the suspense throughout.

"Zhou Can, have you checked the medication in the emergency kit in the demonstration room today?"

"We conduct regular checks every week, following the same protocols as for the emergency carts in the department."

"That’s good then!"

"Why are you asking that?"

"Today, among the specialists observing the surgery, there’s an old man. I’m worried that his heart might have issues watching Professor’s surgery."

"Really? The Academician Grandpa from Fuwai?"

"Yes, sigh, in the future we should perhaps restrict those over 65 from observing. We could check IDs at the entrance."

Yang Ping’s voice was serious, "Be serious!"

"The broadcast isn’t turned off---" a lowered voice said.

The room fell silent, as the symbol for a broadcast showed a crossed-out sign on the screen.

Academician Wang frowned, a bunch of kids.
