Chapter 1025: [1025] As expected, live broadcasting surgery is very difficult

What’s happening?

Both surgeries are popular laparoscopic procedures that fit today’s theme, but they seem to be common diseases on regular days.

For common cases, the majority of the doctors in the audience are surgeons themselves, who often perform plenty of such surgeries and, therefore, lack the curiosity and patience to watch.

If it weren’t for Guoxie’s surgeries, some might even think about leaving.

We can only keep watching for now, to see if there will be anything special about the upcoming surgical steps.

Let’s hope it won’t disappoint everyone. This sentiment isn’t just emerging from the hearts of doctors from other hospitals, even the surgeons from Guoxie Association Hospital seated here are starting to worry.

How does it look? About the same as what they see at their own hospitals. Being from the same hospital, sharing the same operation rooms, wandering around various departments after surgeries, they all have a clear idea of their colleagues’ surgical skills.

“That’s Dr. Qi from Hepatobiliary Surgery performing, right?”

People from General Surgery Department Two can even recognize who is performing the surgery just by looking at the surgeon’s hands on the screen.

“Dr. Qi does perform the gallbladder removal surgery quite cleanly and efficiently.”

“He works fast, but—”

This kind of gallstone surgery is relatively easy. Perhaps Dr. Qi simply picked an easier case, aiming to win over the audience with his technique, but it seems the audience isn’t impressed.

The people from General Surgery Department Two frowned. Shi Xu patted his forehead, he had shared his experience with Hepatobiliary Surgery, but it seems that the surgeons from Hepatobiliary Surgery are less bold than their General Surgery Department Two – is it because they perform so many gallbladder removals that they’ve lost their nerve?

The whispers regarding the first surgery from the audience reached the stage. Qiu Ruiyun and Guo Yiping were overwhelmed upon hearing them.

The cases selected by other groups were reviewed and approved by the leaders for performance, which is something they, including Tao Zhijie, could not influence.

The doctors from the other groups probably thought about safety first, to prevent any accidents. After all, this seminar was not their responsibility, and the fact that they were able to help to this extent was already commendable.

They knew better than to desire a risky gamble.

It seems that they can only rely on their own group’s efforts. Qiu Ruiyun and Guo Yiping sighed inwardly.

The second surgery’s case involved a relatively large tumor, making it more difficult, but the surgical methods employed by the surgeon seemed so by-the-book that it made the colleagues in the audience find the surgery increasingly boring.

Sun Yubo, a resident physician, couldn’t help but grumble, “I heard that their Hepatobiliary Surgery can even perform complete and clean laparoscopic resections of pancreatic cancer. Why not present that? Wouldn’t that attract more attention if shown during a live surgery broadcast?”

Compared with liver laparoscopic surgery, pancreatic cancer laparoscopic surgery is relatively rare nationwide, especially the complex surgeries involving cancer of the pancreatic head, which generally revert to traditional open surgery after exploration.

Upon hearing his words, Shi Xu shook his head: “Director Tang can’t do it.”

“Director Tang isn’t the main force for laparoscopic surgeries,” Liu Chengran quickly added.

“I’ve never heard of anyone from Hepatobiliary Surgery capable of performing such a surgery,” Shi Xu said again.

“Didn’t Student Xiao Xie perform pancreatic cancer surgery before?” Sun Yubo brought up the example of his student. If his own student could do it, surely the surgeons from Hepatobiliary Surgery could too.

“That particular case she handled was quite unique, and the surgery was very successful, unexpectedly so,” Shi Xu’s tone became more complex.
