After receiving the nurse’s report, she began to close the middle incision on the sternum.
The beautiful steel wire suture technique of the chest cavity shocked everyone in the team, at the same time filling them with admiration.
This suture technique alone was enough to attract the attention of the surgical departments of all the major hospitals!
Jiang Tingxu meticulously performed the final suture on the patient. When she finally finished suturing the wound, she only hoped that the scar would fade with time.
No matter how beautiful Jiang Tingxu’s suture was, such a long surgical scar could not be avoided. It was also such a pity that it was on a beautiful little girl!
“Check the items again.”
“Yes.”
Generally, there wouldn’t be any issues with missing items. Even one case out of a thousand was practically not possible.
But to be on the safe side, it was better to check the items twice more!
If there was a problem, they would have to open the little girl’s chest again.
Even an adult might not be able to withstand two chest operations, let alone a little girl who was only a few years old. It was better to be cautious. That would benefit both patient and doctor.
After the items were checked, Jiang Tingxu began to suture the muscle layer, the subcutaneous tissue, and the outermost layer of the skin.
When everything was done, the surgery was considered complete.
Looking at the time, it took more than seven, almost eight hours.
Both her legs were swollen from being on her feet for so long.
Outside the operating theater, the family members who had also waited for that long could be seen to be very tired and full of worry.
“Ding!” The door of the operating theater opened.
The family members stood up from their chairs and went forward. When they saw their daughter being wheeled out, they could not help but burst into tears.
Even the child’s dad could not control his tears from falling.
After all, the child had been given a grim diagnosis equivalent to a death sentence by all the hospitals.
But now, since she was pushed out, it meant that the surgery had been a success!
The family members would have been asked to go in and see her one last time otherwise.
Jiang Tingxu took off her mask and said to the family, “The surgery went very smoothly. Next, we will keep her in the ICU for observation. The nurses will tell you the things you need to pay attention to in the future. If you don’t understand, you must ask clearly.”
She was really afraid that the family would pretend to understand if they didn’t, and it would only delay things.
The success of the surgery was a key point, but other key points could not be ignored after the surgery.
Once there was a problem, the consequences were not something that everyone could accept.
“Okay, okay, we understand. We will get to the bottom of this. Thank you, doctor. Thank you for saving our child!” they cried.
Jiang Tingxu patted the arm of the family member before she left with her team.
The laboratory cafeteria had already prepared a nutritious meal for the members of the two surgical teams.
The environment of this overseas private laboratory was really good!
Nutritious meals specially prepared for the surgical team were not a thing back home.
However, if one were to think from another perspective, it was still understandable.
Forget about the research labs overseas, even large hospitals only performed a few surgeries every day.
In China, they performed one surgery after another. Even if the attending physician collapsed due to exhaustion, there would still be a replacement!
The two were completely incomparable.
Jiang Tingxu felt much more energized after her meal.
She took out her mobile phone and glanced at it. There were dozens of missed calls.
Nearly twenty of them were calls from the man.
The rest were from a few professors, and there were two or three unfamiliar numbers.
It was difficult to reply to the professors one by one. Hence, Jiang Tingxu entered a small group chat and briefly described the surgery process.
