Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

It turned out that Wang Fang's father, Minister Wang, had a shrapnel left over from the war in his lumbar vertebrae, which had been stuck in the spine. It had only affected the movement of the lumbar vertebrae from time to time, and the problem had never been serious. But today, for some unknown reason, the shrapnel directly pressed on the spinal cord, and this caused a big problem. It had to be removed surgically, otherwise it would not only cause paralysis, but could even be life-threatening. Although the operation was not complicated, it was very likely to damage the nerves, and if it was not handled properly, the result would be hemiplegia. That's why they found him. After all, Li Dongfang was the only successful case of nerve suture in the country.

After understanding the situation, Li Dongfang relaxed a lot. There are not many nerves in the lumbar spine, only 5 pairs, and they are thicker than the nerves in the hands. It is much easier for him, so he agreed directly and guaranteed that there would be no problem.

Dean Zhang looked at Li Dongfang in disbelief and said, "Xiao Li, can you really do it? There is no precedent for nerve suture in our country, so you can't just brag about it."

Li Dongfang was not surprised by Dean Zhang's surprise. After all, Dean Zhang did not witness the suturing of the severed hand last time, so he assured:

"President Zhang, don't worry. I won't say anything wrong. It's really okay. But try to find a high-power medical magnifying glass."

After discussing some details, Director Zhang hurried to arrange people to prepare for the operation, and Wang Fang and her mother also came in.

Li Dongfang looked at Wang Fang and then at Wang's mother, scratched his head with an embarrassed look on his face and said:

"Auntie, you see how much trouble this has caused. I am sorry to have made you worried. Don't worry, I will definitely do my best on Uncle Wang's matter."

The Queen Mother looked at her and smiled slightly, saying, "Xiao Li, just do your best. Even if something goes wrong, I won't blame you."

"There can't be any mistakes, otherwise I will never let you go." As soon as Wang Mu finished speaking, Wang Fang stared at Li Dongfang and said solemnly.

Seeing Wang Fang's expression, Li Dongfang suddenly became eager again, "If I solve Mr. Wang's surgery perfectly, will you give me a reward?"

"I...I...if you can solve my dad's surgery perfectly, you...you said...what you said, I...I agree." Wang Fang supported her mother Wang with her face flushed with shame.

Wang's mother thought Wang Fang was talking about Wang Hui and Li Dongfang's blind date, so she continued:

"Xiao Li, as long as you try your best, I have no objection to your relationship with Hui Hui, and you don't need to feel pressured for a while."

Li Dongfang's eyes almost spit fire when he heard Wang Fang's words. Although Wang Fang's appearance was slightly inferior to Qin Huairu, her figure was really not bad at all. After all, he had experienced those two lumps, and she was a department-level lady. As for Wang Hui mentioned by Wang's mother, she was not within his consideration for the time being.

He patted his chest confidently and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of Uncle Wang's affairs. I guarantee there won't be any accidents."

The operation was prepared very quickly, and Li Dongfang took this opportunity to eat something. After all, the operation would take a long time. Although in later generations it was common for doctors to take a break to eat in the middle of an operation, there was no such rule in this era. Once on the operating table, the operation had to be completed in one go.

The operation was well prepared, with assistance from Director Li and the young doctors from Red Star Hospital, and the nurses were all the most experienced. Director Zhang even got one of the most advanced cameras at the time from somewhere to record the entire operation.

The first half of the operation was performed by Director Zhang. Director Zhang is indeed worthy of being called a medical giant. Even at his age, his hands are still very steady. He removed the shrapnel quickly and efficiently, but the nerves were injured as expected.

Li Dongfang took over immediately and began to check the nerve damage. He found that only two nerves were broken and the other two nerves were just damaged, so he quickly began to suture. Due to the thorough preparation this time, there was no nerve atrophy as in the last time when the broken hand was sutured. The operation was smoother and more perfect. It was over in only about two hours. The remaining muscle and skin sutures were performed by a young doctor from the Red Star Hospital. This did not require much technical skills, and grown men did not care whether the scars looked good or not.

The entire operation was very successful without any accidents. It was simply perfect. The operation was completely recorded by a camera and was regarded as a classic in the following decades. It was precious imaging material that all surgeons must watch. Such a perfect suture was completed with only the simplest eight-fold medical magnifying glass. As a result, Li Dongfang became the number one neurosurgeon who was revered not only in the country, but also in the world.
