Surgery Godfather-Chapter 553 - 501 Patient Number One_3

A reversed heart and large blood vessels, structurally severely malformed, an interventricular septum defect, aortic override, pulmonary stenosis, right ventricular hypertrophy - severe Tetralogy of Fallot!

But that’s not even the worst of it, there’s also a tumor inside the left ventricle.

This little girl has already undergone two surgeries, both surgeons realized the difficulty and gave up halfway, so the anatomy inside is also a blur.

Yang Ping didn’t have much contact with Professor Li, but Yang Ping felt that Professor Li must be a cautious person. Judging from their contact at that time, he was apprehensive about this case and probably would not rashly perform the surgery.

Perhaps the patient’s condition changed suddenly at that time, and an emergency surgery had to be performed, so Professor Li had to hurriedly prepare.

As a doctor, hearing this news, Yang Ping couldn’t help but feel regret.

He opened the attached information, really miraculous, this patient’s condition is extremely similar to the previous little girl, but even younger, only several months old.

Perhaps the Cleveland Medical Center is the world’s top heart center and therefore, it has the opportunity to come across these rare cases.

Doctors around the world push their complex cases there, and patients from around the world also gather there. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Cases that other doctors will never encounter in their lives, are continuously met in the Cleveland Medical Center.

A six-month-old baby from a conflict-ridden country, a case admitted to a charity hospital operated by the International Red Cross.

"Dear Dr. Yang, as dispatched by the International Red Cross, I perform surgeries for free around the world every year. This poor guy is also one I encountered during one of my charity clinics. His mother died in the war, his father brought him through the war zone and found the charity hospital that cooperates with me--"

"When I first saw him, my body was shaking. I can’t make the same mistake again. I see no chance of success. I can’t let him die again on the operating table, so, I want to ask for your help--"

"I don’t know how to say it, this is a personal request, perhaps only by doing this can I find peace in my heart--"

"You can agree or refuse based on your own situation and feelings. Whatever choice you make is not related to morality. It’s just helping me with a personal request, or refusing me. There are no moral factors involved, and you’re not obliged to accept the invitation. You have the right to refuse or agree--."

To treat diseases and save lives is the sacred duty of doctors!

If one obtains superb medical skills, it is for the purpose of treating diseases and saving people, otherwise, it would be meaningless.

Yang Ping did not feel that he was particularly noble, as he felt that he was simply fulfilling his duty.

His response was humble but firm;

"Greetings Dr. Li Ze from Cleveland, I have thoroughly reviewed the case material, and I accept your invitation. Please provide more information quickly, so I can determine whether the surgery should be elective or urgent, to ascertain the best surgery time."

Every patient is a concern!

This is what Professor Zhang Zongshun told Yang Ping, Professor Zhang’s father, on his last day of life, was still seeing patients at Xiehe Hospital. After seeing his last patient, he peacefully passed away in his office chair.

This elder, who dedicated his entire life to medicine, always told Professor Zhang that every patient is a concern!

And now as Professor Zhang himself becomes an elder, he passes the same words onto Yang Ping.

Yang Ping deeply felt this sentiment, every patient is a concern!

Have his preoperative checks been thorough? Does he meet the surgical indications? Are there any surgical contraindications? Is there any flaw in the surgical plan? Could there be another backup plan? What complications and accidents can occur intraoperatively and postoperatively? How should they be handled?

Yang Ping began to plan the surgery for this child on draft paper.
