I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 153 "Cicada Wing Skin" and "Transplanting Seedlings"

Dinosaurs carry wolves and wolves...

This song, just before the operation officially started, made everyone happy, and the atmosphere in the operating room suddenly became relaxed, not as depressing as before.

Previously, whether it was the anesthesia team, Ava, Elena, Murphy, or even Zhou Qiao herself, they were more or less nervous and stressed.

After all, this is a major surgery for the governor's daughter, involving a huge order of 1200 million US dollars. There are so many pairs of eyes staring at the monitoring room, and most of them are big shots. Can you not be nervous?

The last time I was so nervous was when the medical committee came to picket.At that time, it was led by Professor Parsons.

However, that time was incomparable to this time.

Didn’t you see that Professor Parsont has to stand back now?The cost of that operation was not even a fraction of what it is now!
It's all right now, the song "Dinosaur Carrying Wolf Carrying Wolf" made everyone relax, thanks to Ava's contribution!
The operation officially begins.

This is a very difficult operation, because up to 80% of Veronica's body was severely burned, so skin grafting is a very big challenge!
Everyone is waiting to see Zhou Qiao's performance.

For skin grafting, the first choice is naturally autologous skin.

If allogeneic skin is used, it can only survive for a short time except for the transplantation between the same ovum.

Moreover, after transplantation, although blood circulation can be established with the recipient wound in the early stage, similar to autologous skin grafting, severe rejection will occur after a few days.

Generally speaking, when the wound is only about the size of a palm, there are many donor areas all over the body, and skin removal is very convenient. For example, Veronica's mother has already had this surgery done by experts from the UCLA Medical Center. .

But if, like Veronica, you only have less than 20% of the skins left to choose from, you can imagine how difficult it will be.

There is good skin in some areas, but it is not particularly convenient to remove the skin.

Veronica has never been able to leave the hospital and will have to spend a long time in the hospital. This is mainly because most of her body has no skin. Although scabs have begun to form in some places, a large amount of body fluids still leak out and become inflamed every day.

Only people with severely damaged skin know the importance of the skin barrier.

Just imagine, a small wound usually takes several days, and you dare not touch the water when you take a bath, not to mention that almost 80% of people are bald?

Zhou Qiao checked Veronica's condition. She only had some good skin around her chest, inner thighs, calves, insteps, soles, and armpits, and the skin was scattered scattered. The largest piece was no more than the size of a palm. 90% were injured, of which 80% were extremely severe burns.

This is the 80% area that needs skin grafting and regeneration.

Skin grafting is called "Skin Graft" in English, and its original meaning is grafting, which is a term in the field of crop and fruit tree planting.

Simply put, it is a surgical technique that removes partial or full thickness skin from one part of the body, transplants it to another part of the body, and makes it survive!
80% of Veronica's body needs skin grafting, but only about 10% of the donor area can be used for selection, and about 10% of the mild burns are not applicable.

It is this daunting difficulty of restoration that scares away many experts.Like Justin.

The most important thing is that even if the skin graft is successful, it will leave scars everywhere.

It is really very difficult to recover to sixty-seven tenths of the condition before the burn.

Zhou Qiao's perfect skin grafting surgery solved the first difficulty, and the second difficulty relied on the system to exchange for +2 attributes of "healing" and "traceless" energy.

And there is no perfect level of skin grafting surgery, it is not impossible to rely on healing energy alone, but it will cost more points and it will be difficult to win the trust of the world.

The +16 life-saving pills given to Loya can only save life and allow major wounds to heal in a very short period of time. Because the time is short and the effect is quick, it seems relatively "hasty" and "rough", and the scars are hard to disappear. To remove the scar, it is still necessary to perform another delicate operation.

And Veronica doesn't need to save her life, her life has been saved long ago!
The plan selected by Zhou Qiao is the most cost-effective and the easiest to convince the world!

He lowered the scalpel lightly, and the blade touched the edge of a good skin, and then with a light force, the blade cut into it.

The lancet traveled slowly along the good skin, and soon, a palm-sized piece of skin as thin as a cicada's wings was easily removed.

This piece of skin is almost transparent. If you don't look carefully, you might think it is air.

Zhou Qiao deliberately paused for a moment so that the people in the monitoring room could see clearly. Then, he carefully divided the skin into several small pieces, knife by knife. It took about 2 minutes to divide the cicada wing skin into enough pieces. More than two hundred portions, uniform in size, as if measured!
During this process, the movements should not be too big, otherwise, the wind from the arms, scalpels, etc. will blow away these small "broken skins"!

Or if the person next to you sneezes, the little bits of skin will fly away.That is equivalent to wasting all previous efforts and doing it for nothing.It is very, very difficult to collect them back.

In the monitoring room, someone couldn't help but exclaimed: "This is definitely the thinnest skin I have ever seen, even thinner than razor skin! Oh my god, this Dr. Zhou is amazing!"

The person who exclaimed was the skin grafting expert at the UCLA Medical Center. He was the one who performed the skin grafting surgery on Veronica’s mother!
He originally thought that his ability to achieve "thick blade and thick skin" would be regarded as the top technology in the industry.Who would have thought that when Zhou Qiao took action, the skin he took off was even thinner than the one he took off!

Much thinner!

Others can't see it, but as a top expert in this field, how come he doesn't know?

So, I couldn't help but exclaim!What a surprise!
With this magical technology, he felt that it was not surprising that Zhou Qiao created other miracles!
"What is blade thick skin?" Thalia couldn't help asking.After all, apart from Governor Hulk, among the people present, she was the only layman, not a member of the medical profession.

The expert looked back and saw that it was a female star asking the question, so he couldn't help but explain: "The skin graft is the thinnest type in our field of skin grafting, which means it is only as thin as the blade of a scalpel!"

The blade-thick skin is translucent when cut out, and the thicker one is called medium-thick skin, which is divided into thin-medium-thick skin and thick-medium-thick skin.

However, the skin Zhou Qiao removed was almost completely transparent. Isn't it thinner than the blade's skin?

If you didn't look carefully, you would think that what he took out was air!
Only top experts can master the thick blade. The average thickness is about 0.3 mm. Some experts can achieve 0.2 mm. However, Zhou Qiao's perfect skills and the ceiling in the earth's medical field exist. How can it be only 0.2?

He can do 0.06mm!

Many UP owners like to make some weird experimental videos, such as using a vernier caliper to measure the wings of a black grasshopper, which is about 0.06 mm.

In other words, Zhou Qiao's skin is truly as thin as a cicada's wings.

Some machines that claim to be nanotechnology can reach less than 0.2 mm, but the skin removal effect and efficiency are probably not as good as Zhou Qiao's!

Zhou Qiao performed the operation in six times, and this factor was also involved. Each time, the skin was removed at 0.06 mm, so that the recovery of the donor area would be very fast. It would not take a month, but just a few days to remove the skin again.

The other experts were also amazed.

An expert said: "The layer of epidermis taken by Dr. Zhou has less dermis and thin skin. Not only is it easier to survive, but it also has strong anti-infection ability. This technique is really unique!"

It's a pity that the owner of the Lanzhou Ramen Shop is not here. If he were, he would definitely be more shocked than these experts. If you use this hand to cut beef, wouldn't the profit increase tenfold?Can a piece of beef last for a year?
In the operating room, Zhou Qiao started the skin graft very carefully.

The dot matrix technique of "seedling transplanting method" is used, that is to say, a small piece of cicada wing skin is "responsible" for a small surrounding area, which is the most efficient.

Otherwise, if a small piece of skin is directly covered, the area covered will be limited.

There are so few "piyuan" that we can't afford not to be careful!
As soon as this operation came out, everyone was amazed again.

After these "seedlings" survive, they can expand to cover larger wounds.

This process very much tests the skill and level of the surgeon. Even if an average doctor thinks of this method, his hands may not be able to keep up!

I have the idea, but the actual operation cannot achieve the expected effect!

Dr. Justin, the plastic surgeon, sat silently, feeling overwhelmed.He originally wanted to come here to find fault and point out the country, but how could he know that an expert would know if there was one as soon as he made a move.

Guang Zhouqiao's "Cicada Wing Skin" hand surprised him.Not to mention the ingenious method of transplanting rice seedlings later.There is also a perfect level of cosmetic suturing that lifts weight lightly and flows smoothly.

If he came by himself, he would have had blade-thick skin at most, but Zhou Qiao's skin was actually thinner than blade-thick skin. This is simply...unbelievable!

Of course he didn't know that Zhou Qiao called this kind of cicada wing skin, but he felt that it was indescribable, and there were mixed feelings in his heart.

He thought for a while and finally couldn't help but said: "Actually, there is another difficulty, and that is the survival rate of these small scraps of skin. It can't be 100% successful, right? If [-] to [-]% fail, the surgical effect will be It would be very ugly.”

The doctor next to him was silent.

Indeed, this should also be a big difficulty.It depends on how much the survival rate can be!
Seth, the director of the burn department, said: "The most difficult thing about skin grafting is that the survival rate is difficult to guarantee. Especially the small pieces of skin grafting on fingers and toes have a very high necrosis rate. In actual work, even if only one or two percent of the skin grafting Necrosis, it will be very headache."

Professor Parsont smiled slightly and said: "Actually, these are secondary. The most important thing is, how magical is Dr. Zhou's special secret medicine? Can it really be traceless?"

Only then did everyone realize, yes, it seems that Dr. Zhou has never relied on these surgical operations. The core competitiveness is his secret medicine!
Justin curled his lips and snorted coldly in his heart. He didn't believe that Zhou Qiao's so-called miraculous medicine really had that kind of magical effect. Deep in his heart, he felt that Zhou Qiao was completely deceiving people!

He glanced at the people around him, smiled faintly, and said in a strange way: "It is said that Dr. Zhou boasts that it will take only seven or eight days to be effective. When the time comes, won't we know for ourselves when we witness it?"

He felt that it would be best to have as many people as possible witness it when the time comes.He secretly thought that if more reporters came over then, it would be easier to expose Dr. Zhou's deceptive tricks!

When Zhou Qiao is defeated, it's time for him to play!

He is confident that Veronica can recover to [-]% of her pre-burn condition. If she performs better, [-]% is not impossible!

　Thanks for the reward of "Growing is knowing that maturity is pretending not to know".
