Dr. Chung’s 90s

Chapter 3 Scar Repair Surgery
Everyone's assessment time is different, and the specific arrangement should be based on the actual situation of each department, as long as it is completed within the specified time limit.

Zhong Yu's condition has been adjusted well. She has not been idle in the past few days when she did not go to the hospital. She went to the school's anatomy room to practice her skills. Now she no longer feels unfamiliar.

As soon as he received the assessment notice, Zhong Yu came to the hospital immediately.

Director Ni couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw that she was full of energy and eager to try.

"This is the patient's medical record. Please look at it carefully."

The patients were all randomized. Zhong Yu took the information and browsed it quickly.

This is a young man five months after the forehead lesion was removed and sutured. The transverse incision scar is 4.0cm, light in color, but the skin is slightly raised within 1.01cm from both ends and is slightly hard to touch.

Director Ni sat upright and looked at her sharply.

"Analyze the cause and how to surgically treat it?"

This question is not difficult, Zhong Yu said rigorously:
"This type of scar does not follow the skin lines, so even after the trauma is sutured and healed in the first stage, the scar is still obvious, and accompanied by muscle contraction, depressions and subcutaneous micro-bulges appear on one or both sides. Z-shaped surgery can be used, and continuous Z-shaped surgery can be used. Technique, W technique, VY technique, etc., can be combined with each other and used flexibly."

Director Ni's expression softened slightly, he stood up and strode forward, reminding her in a deep and deep voice.

"Remember the surgical procedure and I'll help you."

Zhong Yu felt relieved and quickly followed Director Ni. She was finally about to get on the operating table again.

When they arrived, the others were already waiting.

The anesthesiologist is served by the deputy director of the department, Yi.

When he saw her, his eyes narrowed as he smiled.

"Don't be nervous. Both Lao Ni and I are optimistic about you. You are the most promising female doctor in our department."

Zhong Yuxiao frowned and nodded obediently in thanks.

There is no female doctor in their department, so this title really belongs to her.

This is a minor surgery that only requires a chief surgeon, an assistant physician, an anesthesiologist, plus a circulating nurse and a hand-washing nurse.

In addition to Director Ni, Deputy Director Yi was also the evaluator who rated her.

Everyone involved in the operation and surgical instruments must perform aseptic procedures before surgery.

Zhong Yu is careful and considerate in his work and pays attention to details, and every step is done according to the process to perfection.

When she was done, she came to the patient first.

First, ask the patient to smile, close his eyes lightly, raise his forehead or frown, and observe wrinkles carefully.

Then analyze which section of the straight scar follows the skin lines and which section intersects with the wrinkles at angles of different degrees, and draw a continuous Z-shaped design line.

When she was drawing the line, Director Ni strictly checked and did not remind her aloud.

The line is drawn, local anesthesia is applied, and the scar is removed first.

The knife is raised and lowered with the hand, and the wound edges on both sides are peeled off from the superficial layer of subcutaneous fat, and the thickness is consistent.

Zhong Yu is very focused and his fingers are light and nimble. It doesn't look like he is performing surgery, but like he is completing an important work of art.

Director Ni and Deputy Director Yi looked at each other with admiration in their eyes.

Zhong Yu continued to move his hands as if there was no one around.

Focus on incision according to the designed incision line, and sew each triangular flap in staggered layers.

Just after the first stitch was sutured, I suddenly felt the back of my hand feel slightly hot, and a faint green light emerged from my hand.

Oops! ! !

The resurrection vine that had been unresponsive turned into a demon at this time.

My heart suddenly sank, and I glanced at Director Ni subconsciously.

Director Ni had been paying attention to her movements, thinking that she was seeking recognition, and said something in a calm voice.

"Good job, keep going!"

Zhong Yu relaxed a little and was sure that no one but her could see the resurrection vine.

It's not easy to be reborn, and she doesn't want to be studied as an alien.

Adjust your status quickly and continue working.

Due to the asymmetry of the tissue after scar removal, a triangle is made on one side, and then the other side is pulled to the transfer position and then an incision is made to form a second triangular flap.

Such a continuous Z-shape is the most test of layered stitching technology.

Each small triangular flap should be flattened and well aligned to prevent local tissue from being uneven due to the contraction of certain triangular flaps in the future, with the skin flap being high and the incision sutures being low.

While Zhong Yu was working, the Resurrection Vine was also busy. One vine seemed to be sucking the dirty blood from the scar, while the other vine overflowed green mist from the incision.

She did not perceive danger, and the patient's expression was relaxed and at ease.

Director Ni was a little shocked. He leaned down slightly and took a closer look. The sutures of the incisions were so perfect that they could only be seen with the naked eye at close range.

I saw her continue to tie the knot calmly and skillfully, maintaining balanced tension on both ends of the ligation line, and tying it quickly and smoothly.

There was very little bleeding during the whole process, which was perfect!

She began post-operative compression dressing, which was helpful in smoothing the healing of the surgical area.

Ni Hui asked himself, he might not be able to be as precise as Zhong Yu.

Plastic surgery requires doctors like Zhong Yu who are excellent in technique, aesthetics and details.

When the operation is over, the nurse sends the patient away.

Zhong Yu went out to wash his hands first.

Deputy Director Yi whispered behind her:
"Old Ni, Dr. Zhong's skills are not ordinary. With her in our department, she will definitely be even more powerful. If I am not afraid of your displeasure, this girl's future achievements may be higher than yours."

Ni Hui is not a person who is jealous of talents. It is a good thing for him that students are better than others.

"I'm afraid I can't keep her anymore. She's going back to Haishi. Do you think this girl was hiding her clumsiness before?"

Although it was excellent before, it was not as shocking as it is today.

Deputy Director Yi widened his eyes and growled in a low voice:

"Don't keep her in our hospital? Lao Ni, what are you doing? This is a real talent. You will regret letting her go. It's really annoying. No, I have to talk to her."

Ni Hui grabbed him.

"If you want to talk about something, go to the dean. Only when he speaks will he have the weight."

Deputy Director Yi slapped his forehead.

"You are right. Talents must be retained with high standards. I will go find the dean."

Anyway, the dean is just a brick, he can move it wherever it is needed.

After coming out of the operating room, Zhong Yu followed Director Ni to the office in silence.

Because of the resurrected vine's outrageous reaction, she was always a little uneasy.

It is unclear whether the patient will be affected, and we are worried about his recovery.

As soon as Director Ni entered the office, he put the assessment form on the table.

He first pulled up a chair and sat down, then glanced at her.

Seeing that she was worried, he thought she was worried about the results of the assessment.

He tapped his fingers on the table, indicating for her to look at the assessment form.

Zhong Yu immediately came to his senses, cheered up and picked up the assessment form to read.

Director Ni struck loudly at the right time.

"Don't think that giving you a perfect score means you are truly invincible. Medicine is constantly moving forward. Mastering the current advanced technology does not mean it will be the future." Zhong Yu agreed with this and nodded calmly.

"The teacher is right. Don't worry, I'm just an ordinary doctor. I won't stand still with pride and complacency."

She said it solemnly, and it was clear that her attitude was very upright.

Director Ni was very satisfied and raised his wrist to look at his watch.

"I still have some time now. Let me talk to you first. Have you communicated with your mother? What are your plans?"

Zhong Yu is a little lazy. She has not contacted her mother for so long since she came back, and she doesn't know where to start talking about many things.

When she was ten years old, her father died of a work-related injury. Three years later, her mother also had a family of her own.

Her mother has always been strong and has high standards for herself and her children.

My mother would be dissatisfied if I failed to become a clinician and stay in a big hospital, even if I stayed in school to teach.

In addition, she never got married and started a family, so she called him every three days to urge her to get married. The conflicts between the two of them accumulated day by day, so they simply stopped contacting each other.

Fortunately, she also has a half-brother. She regularly sends money to her mother every month, and everything is fine.

She still feels a little guilty for not being able to be a daughter that makes her mother proud.

So after repeated consideration over the past few days, she finally decided to return to Haishi. She had some regrets that she had to make up for herself.

She settled in the capital in her previous life and lived well, but she always lacked a sense of belonging.

Now that you have made up your mind, there is no need to hesitate.

"Teacher, I want to go to Nanshan Hospital Affiliated to Fuda. They have just established a separate plastic surgery department. I should have the opportunity to come into contact with different cases, and I can also communicate and learn with colleagues from other universities."

Director Ni was not surprised by her decision. He suppressed his disappointment and said seriously:

"Nanshan Hospital Affiliated to Fuda is not weak and is a good place for young people to develop. If necessary, I can write you a letter of recommendation."

Zhong Yu was extremely grateful and told the truth.

"Thank you, teacher. I'm not being polite to you. I really need your letter of recommendation. If assigned normally, I may not be able to get through. I still want to get into work as soon as possible and avoid detours."

She had no connections in the medical system in Haishi, so she had to wait for recruitment, and she didn't know how long she would be idle.

"Then I will send the recommendation letter directly to the dean over there for you. You can leave a contact address and let them contact you directly."

Zhong Yu subconsciously left the address of the house her father gave her. After her mother remarried, the house was transferred to her name with the help of her father's work leader.

When I was young, I could live with my mother at my stepfather's house, but it's hard to continue living there when I grow up.

Ni Hui put the address she had written into a drawer, stood up and said:

"Now that you have made a decision, you don't need to come to the hospital later. There are still relevant procedures to go through at the school, and it will take a lot of time."

Zhong Yu nodded obediently. She originally wanted to stay for a while and continue to follow up on today's patient. Now that the teacher has spoken, she will not say more.

"Then if there are any problems with today's patients, please let me know, teacher."

Ni Hui admires her responsible attitude towards patients.

"Don't worry, I will let you know about your recovery. Go say goodbye to the others."

Although she had no impression of most people in the department, she still politely said goodbye.

She shouldn't stay too long during working hours, so she only said a few words.

Nurse Xiaolin was very reluctant to part with her, but unfortunately she was too busy and could only give her a quick hug.

Back in the dormitory, Zhong Yu decided to call his mother first.

Her mother is still the accountant of Twelve Cotton Textile Factory. There is a phone in their office. She found the number and called it directly.

As luck would have it, it was her mother who answered the phone.

Although the voice was much younger, she could still hear it.

"Mom, are you busy now?"

Zhou Qin was making a budget and was very busy.

It's rare for her daughter to call, so she has to make time when she doesn't have time.

She always wants to chatter a few words, thinking about her in my heart.

"No matter how busy I am, I still have time to talk to you. Are you busy in the hospital? I remember your training is about to end."

Zhong Yu hummed and explained softly:
"I just finished the assessment today, and I have received the title of attending physician."

Zhou Qin was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "This is really a good thing. You can stay in the hospital and work there. I remember that your hospital is a tertiary hospital, a big hospital."

Zhong Yu hummed in a low mood, not sure if she would object to his return to Haishi.

He tentatively said: "Mom, I don't plan to stay in the hospital. I still want to go back to work in Haishi."

Zhou Qin frowned slightly, a little confused.

"Of course it's a good thing to be able to come back to work. There are good hospitals in Haishi, but our family has no way for you to come back. If you go to a small hospital that's not decent, you might as well stay in the capital."

Zhou Qin only gave birth to a son and a daughter. She was a shrewd and powerful person, and no one dared to bully her even if she was a stepmother.

Being able to keep her daughter by her side also supports her and her son.

But she is not short-sighted and does not want to delay her daughter's future because of her selfishness.

Zhong Yu felt sour in his heart when he heard what she said, and his voice became softer.

"Mom, don't worry about work. I'll probably go to Nanshan Hospital Affiliated to Fuda, and the teaching staff will help me write a letter of recommendation. My academic performance and performance in the hospital are both good, so things shouldn't be difficult."

Zhou Qin was very surprised when her daughter said this.

"Are you telling the truth? There is an old employee in our factory who said that his sister-in-law is working as a nurse in Nanshan Hospital and the monthly salary is incredible. It would be great if you can really get in."

My daughter went to school early and graduated with a direct doctorate after eight years of study at the age of 24. She is considered young and has a bright future.

From now on, she will be able to take more care of her in life, which will really help her.

Zhong Yu was [-]% to [-]% sure, but he was very cautious in speaking.

"Anyway, if things haven't been implemented yet, don't tell anyone else."

Zhou Qin laughed and said, "Don't worry, Mom is not in vain, so when will you come back?"

"About a week or so. When I come back, I want to live in an old house on Weihai Road. It's close to the hospital and I feel more comfortable. You can also bring your brother to stay with me at any time."

Zhou Qin suppressed the smile on her face. No matter how powerful she was, she couldn't cover the sky with one hand.

The Song family and her daughter are not related by blood, so there is really no need to deliberately close the distance.

"Mom will clean up the house in a few days and prepare the bedding for you. You can live there when you come back. You still have to take a look at Uncle Song's place when you come back. He is not bad to you, and for your brother's sake superior."

Zhong Yu readily agreed. Although his mother had a younger brother, he still protected her.

"Don't worry about those two brothers and sisters from the Song family. The factory has not been doing well in the past few years. Your Uncle Song doesn't have that much money, and those two can't be frivolous anymore."

With the wave of layoffs in the 90s, even if Twelve Cotton Textile Mills could survive a little longer, it would still be worse than before.

In her memory, Uncle Song's two children were not very capable, and it was only through Uncle Song's connections that everything was done.

Before, she received monthly support payments from her father's machinery factory, and her life was relatively comfortable.

Because she lived with her mother, she also lived in the Song family for several years. Uncle Song's children often plotted against her.

Fortunately, her mother protects the calf, and she doesn't rely on Uncle Song to support her, so she directly fights back every time.

Overall, she didn't suffer any big losses, but I don't know if her brother was bullied.

She lives in her own house and doesn't need to look at other people's faces. She really doesn't have to pay attention to them.
