"What kind of problem is it?" Mr. Zhang's tone was very worrying, so Director Fang asked several cardiac surgeons in detail.
Speaking of which, she may have seen this kind of surgery, but she is not a cardiac surgery expert and has never done this kind of operation personally, so she definitely does not have the experience and feeling of a surgeon in this area. Some doctors on the scene said it was OK, but some bosses questioned whether it was OK.
Whether it is feasible or not may require further explanation from colleagues in cardiac surgery.
Under this situation, Xie Wanying unexpectedly received meaningful glances from two top cardiac surgery experts, Mr. Zhang and Brother Ren: If you say yes, you can explain it to the patients and friends. Anyway, we think it is not possible.
It is enough to show that this difficulty is well known and senior experts in cardiac surgery believe that it cannot be solved. She, Xie Wanying, cannot avoid such practical technical problems, because objectively it does exist.
"Teacher Fang, as Director Zhang said, some parts of the human body are very difficult for doctors to sew by hand. This is determined by the special anatomical structure of certain parts of the human body." Xie Wanying said, "Director Zhang
What I want to say is that it is for this reason that it is difficult to perform thoracoscopy surgery for four-vessel lesions under total thoracoscopy."
"Is it better to use a surgical robot? I heard that the magnification of the surgical field is much greater than that of a thoracoscope." Director Fang asked again, obviously trying to give the patient the last hope.
"This question is not a one-sided question of whether one can see clearly the surgical field of vision." Xie Wanying said.
To be precise, it is the feel. It is much more difficult for a doctor to suture with a long-distance tool than with a short tool. As mentioned before, the slow or missing information transmitted by long-distance tools will lead to serious hand feel during the doctor's operation.
Not enough. What's more, it is difficult for doctors to suture this area even if they have sufficient touch, let alone do it without a doctor's touch.
"How to solve this problem?" Director Fang was confused after hearing this. What he didn't understand was that what she just said was something that could be considered. According to the current statement, wouldn't it be hopeless?
"As you know, Mr. Fang, you have seen many surgeries and know that the progress of medical technology is the result of multiple aspects. It is difficult to achieve the overall surgical goal by relying on one technological development alone. In addition to expanding the doctor's surgical field of view, endoscopic surgery must
, the technical difficulties of other operations for doctors must be solved at the same time, otherwise it will be useless.”
"I understand." As expected of a boss, Director Fang understood immediately, "You are talking about the stapler."
Doctors use staplers to assist in areas that are difficult to sew manually. Not to mention endoscopic surgeries, there are also many surgical cases in which staplers are used to solve such difficulties in traditional surgeries.
In laparoscopic surgery, due to the problem of lack of hand feel, staplers are used more often than traditional surgeries. It can be said that staplers are definitely needed to solve problems in some places. For example, the thoracoscopic surgery to treat single-vessel lesions is currently being discussed.
Therefore, the success rate of surgery has been greatly improved because of the use of staplers. The TECAB demonstrated by Company B also used staplers.
Let’s talk about another issue here. There are various types of staplers and they are not universal. The vascular stapler used for single-vessel lesions must be specially developed for this type of endoscopic surgery and is specially used to connect the internal mammary artery and the left anterior descending artery.
Special model. The implication is that if surgery for four-vessel lesions requires the assistance of a vascular stapler, it has not yet been invented.
