When the Doctor Uses A Hack -
Chapter 1080 - 1083: I Can't Guarantee...
```
Surgery passed one second, one minute at a time.
Chen Cang was fully invested, with no other thoughts.
Yet Xu Ziming and He Chao watched with a complex mix of emotions!
This was Xu Ziming's first time seeing Chen Cang perform such a surgery, and despite being prepared for Chen Cang's expertise, he was still... deeply impressed by Chen Cang's surgical prowess!
Whether it was the basic skill of vascular anastomosis or the management of details during surgery.
How did Chen Cang seem like a young man?
If not familiar, Xu Ziming would even feel that there was a big boss hiding behind Chen Cang!
However, at this moment Xu Ziming began to look forward with anticipation, perhaps... Chen Cang could also handle Marfan syndrome surgeries?
With this thought, Xu Ziming resolved to follow Master Chen and learn from him.
Xu Ziming was actually quite pleased!
There was much to learn from Chen Cang.
Cardiothoracic surgeries were among those specialties with the most varied types in major surgical fields, though it couldn't compare to general surgery.
There were quite a few experts skilled in 3-5 different surgical types, but not many could reach the level of proficiency that Chen Cang had, not to mention mastering every type.
Chen Cang, however, seemed like an anomaly, excelling in surgeries across fields like cardiothoracic, general, and orthopedic surgery.
What exactly was he aiming for?
While Xu Ziming was puzzling over this, he suddenly had a realization - he spotted a clue!
He noticed that while Chen Cang's surgeries seemed chaotic, they were actually very orderly!
The areas he had mastered were all emergency procedures, also known as emergency surgical science!
With so many cardiothoracic surgeries, Chen Cang was more researched in major vessel repair and acute valvular diseases and seemed utterly uninterested in others...
In the vast field of general surgery, it seemed Chen Cang's focus was limited to emergency conditions like acute abdomen; he hadn't delved deeply into tumors or endocrine surgeries!
Realizing this, Xu Ziming had an epiphany!
He had been worried that Chen Cang was biting off more than he could chew, but now it appeared that Chen Cang's goal was quite clear: emergency surgical science!
With that thought, Xu Ziming's gaze towards Chen Cang contained much more admiration.
The development of emergency medicine is among the shortest of all medical disciplines.
Emergency medicine globally had a late start.
Even now, the literature on emergency surgical science is pieced together from various fields, without independent research.
It is different from "Surgical Oncology"!
Surgical oncology is also a branch of surgery encompassing all disciplines, but it has developed quickly.
Why?
Because it's profitable!
The whole world knows that oncology makes money. Pharmaceutical companies to research, hospitals to open specialized oncology divisions... anything related to the disease essentially meant exorbitant profits.
Emergency, alas, is not so lucrative!
Xu Ziming's perspective differed from Chen Cang's, more complex.
Emergency surgical science is a difficult and barren path since the emergency department is always one of the poorest departments in hospitals nationwide.
Yet, it is also the life-saving department most needed by the general public.
The advancement of emergency medical care depends on the power of the nation and society.
With that thought, Xu Ziming looked at Chen Cang with even more respect.
To have such skill and talent, yet choose to work in emergency medicine.
Emergency medicine gives the impression of being a jack of all trades, but a master of none.
Chen Cang's goal, though, is to master everything, to create an emergency surgery guide!
…
…
The surgery ended, performing femoral artery perfusion and de-airing of the arch branch vessels, while simultaneously stopping superior vena cava retrograde perfusion or selecting cerebral perfusion.
After thorough de-airing, the artificial blood vessel was clamped.
The artificial blood vessel was de-aired, and the clamps were released.
Checked the anastomosis site for no bleeding or oozing!
```
The surgery, successfully concluded!
It lasted for 42 minutes.
Chen Cang heaved a sigh of relief, seeing that the patient's vital signs were still relatively normal.
However, everyone dared not let their guard down.
The critical period after surgery had not yet passed, and close observation was necessary.
But at least the first step was taken!
Exiting the operating room, everyone washed their hands and prepared to leave.
Xu Ziming looked at Ma Yuehui: "Old Ma, aren't you panicking?"
Ma Yuehui, looking at Chen Cang who hadn't come out yet, sighed: "Damn it, not panicking? Try being in my shoes! You're the signatory doctor!"
"But... can I panic?"
"If I panic, that kid Chen Cang would be even more panicked than me! I used to think being the signatory was the coolest job."
"Now? Hearing about signatures makes me weak at the knees!"
"After each surgery, looking at the vital signs on the monitor is like checking the lottery numbers, feeling overjoyed when the surgery ends and seeing all the right numbers, just like hitting the jackpot!"
Xu Ziming couldn't help but chuckle, then asked: "Then why do you still come along?"
Old Ma sighed: "Old Xu, you don't get it. You know why a captain has to be there in battle? It's not because he's so awesome, but because he's the morale of the troops. Only by steadying the morale can you win."
"Following him, the kid feels at ease, and there's more confidence during surgery."
Chen Cang, sharp of ear and clear of eye, although he had not gone out, was taken aback upon hearing Old Ma's words.
Thinking it over, it really did seem to be the case!
Group Leader Ma truly was a person of courage and careful thought.
Leaving the operating room, there was a large crowd outside, each one towering over 1.9 meters, tall and imposing!
Seeing Chen Cang and the others emerge, they hurriedly stood up!
"Doctor, how is Brother Tian doing?"
"Yes! Doctor, how did the surgery go for Lao Tian?"
At this time, Tian's parents and wife also came over.
"Doctor, the surgery..."
Chen Cang nodded: "The surgery went very smoothly, but we can't give you a conclusion yet. We need to monitor in the ICU for a week, and if nothing goes wrong, then we can consider the surgery a success."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
A mix of happiness and anxiety!
For the family members, the operating room is a matter of life and death; outside, they have no other choice but to wait.
Each time is a tense wait for the verdict!
Yet, some diseases are hard to pronounce a judgment on immediately, this kind of anxiety truly makes the loved ones suffer!
It also requires the patient's own efforts.
"Thank you, Dr. Chen!" Tian Zhengkai's wife bowed deeply to Chen Cang.
Chen Cang nodded his head.
After the family left, the athletes remained silent, then stopped Chen Cang.
The assistant coach looked at Chen Cang: "Dr. Chen, does Zhengkai have Marfan syndrome?"
The other athletes also crowded around, looking at Chen Cang.
Chen Cang nodded: "Yes, the diagnosis is confirmed, it's Marfan syndrome."
After hearing this news, everyone sighed.
Perhaps Tian Zhengkai's family didn't understand, but they did.
As athletes, they were all too familiar with Marfan syndrome, also known as "the giant's bane."
They hadn't expected Tian Zhengkai to have this disease.
"Doctor, can you cure this illness?" Suddenly, someone asked in a not-so-fluent Chinese.
Chen Cang looked up and saw it was Jeremy Lin.
Chen Cang sighed and shook his head, speaking the truth: "I cannot guarantee it."
