After He Yimin detailed the specific idea and bridge routes for the bridge surgery, she looked at Lin Jie!
He closed his eyes as if lost in thought.
At this moment, Lin Jie was in his mind reconstructing He Yimin's surgical plan, making more specific and detailed predictions.
It must be said, although her idea for the bridge wasn't novel, the routing for the bridge was quite bold and imaginative.
One end of a slender blood vessel connects to the aorta entering the brain, then it wraps around most of the right hemisphere, following the path of the right optical nerve, penetrating into the brain to reach the lower end of the malformed vessel.
Though the surgical space remains narrow, performing surgery here would damage the patient's visual control center; compared to other brain injuries, blindness seems like an acceptable option!
In Lin Jie's mind, after several minor adjustments, the bridge route was finally confirmed, and the surgical process underwent a preliminary simulation...
He slowly opened his eyes, looked at He Yimin, nodded approvingly, and said, "This method is feasible, and the post-operative damage is within an acceptable range."
He Yimin widened her eyes in surprise and asked, "Teacher, can you really do it?"
"Just laying out that ultra-long bridge vessel would require lifting off most of the patient's skull, this risk..."
Lin Jie couldn't help but smile, "He Yimin, have you seen videos of how fishermen catch fish on large frozen lakes?"
He Yimin was startled and then immediately realized, clapped her small hands, "Oh, I was really confused."
"We can totally mimic winter fishing net setups, drilling a hole in the skull at intervals to guide the vessel forward internally..."
"Oh my, teacher, you are truly wise..."
Finally figuring out a solution, Lin Jie felt at ease and chuckled, "This is mostly due to your efforts; I just made some improvements in the details."
"He Yimin, as long as you persist, I believe you will become an excellent diagnostic expert one day."
Flattered, He Yimin blushed slightly and asked, "Teacher, there's one more issue, the surgery timing."
"Although the blood supply to the malformed artery branch won't stop during the bridging, the supply volume will be greatly reduced!"
"This causes significant insufficient blood supply to that part of the brain tissue, which could lead to irreversible brain damage if it lasts too long."
"I estimate if the bridging surgery at the branch end is completed within fifteen minutes, it should be fine."
"But in such a confined surgical space, with additional micro-microscope-assisted remote operations and time constraints, can you handle it..."
Lin Jie pondered for a moment, gently nodded, "Although very difficult and challenging, there is a chance for success!"
Sss...
The dining table was suddenly filled with a series of gasps!
Using specialized microsurgical equipment and a severely limited microscope field of view, in an exceedingly cramped space, to perform a bypass anastomosis on millimeter-level vessels, with a time limit...
Everyone understood the difficulty of these procedures.
They thought they had already seen Lin Jie's heights, not expecting an even greater mountain ahead...
At this moment, the waiters started serving dishes!
A few cold and hot dishes were first placed on the table!
"All three ideas are excellent, innovative, and feasible."
"Relatively speaking, He Yimin and Gao Yanhong's plan has the least post-operative damage, temporarily ranking first among the three..."
Tian Xiangyu slightly tugged at the corners of his mouth in dissatisfaction.
He admitted that He Yimin's plan was indeed good.
However, the greatest drawback of the plan is the extremely high demands on the chief surgeon.
This surgical difficulty might be achievable only by Lin Jie worldwide, utterly lacking universal significance.
Lin Jie picked up his chopsticks first and said, "Let's eat something first, and then discuss new ideas!"
Whether it's their natural speed or their habit of eating quickly due to Lin Jie's influence remains unknown.
This naturally formed habit initially made them restrain themselves due to Lin Jie's authority, but slowly, they began to let themselves go.
Eventually, it reached a point where, after Lin Jie took the first piece with his chopsticks, the remaining plate was emptied in a flash.
The waiter serving dishes would simultaneously remove the empty plate when serving the next one.
After a few rounds, the waiters' gaze towards them changed slightly.
Dressed well, with refined manners, they seemed like they'd been starved for eight hundred years!
This situation also made Lin Jie feel a bit embarrassed.
He put down his chopsticks and softly said, "Once everyone has had some food, let's take a break and continue our topic."
Lin Jie looked at Fang Huanru, Xiao Ganghao, and Song Licheng, and asked, "Have any of you come up with any ideas?"
They exchanged glances, each showing a slightly awkward expression.
Wei Hongyang stood up, looking ashamed, "Teacher, sorry, I couldn't come up with a feasible solution!"
"Sorry, teacher, I couldn't either!" Ma Hongmin also stood apologizing.
Seeing more people about to stand, Lin Jie quickly raised his hand to stop them, "You guys don't need to apologize. Wei Hongyang, Ma Hongmin, you two sit down too!"
"Actually, when I sent this patient's case to you, I knew this case far exceeded your abilities!"
"Honestly, hearing three decent solutions today was beyond my expectations. What surprised me more was the practical feasibility of the solution jointly devised by He Yimin and Gao Yanhong."
Lin Jie expressed with emotion, "The insights I gained today surpass my initial expectations, you all deserve commendation!"
These words brought smiles to everyone present!
It was Lin Jie's first time praising them, especially for Tian Xiangyu, Fang Huanru, Xiao Ganghao, and others following Lin Jie longer; their hearts felt as sweet as honey.
"Teacher, we've all been working hard on solutions!"
Due to his project, Song Licheng interacts with Lin Jie more, knowing him to be easygoing and kind privately.
He explained, "We've just been stuck in a dead end with our thoughts, unable to find a suitable solution."
"Oh, what were your original thoughts?" Lin Jie asked with a smile.
Song Licheng scratched his head, "We found that under normal blood flow rates, the malformed artery branch could meet the brain's oxygen demand."
"We were thinking of how to increase the blood oxygen content without increasing the blood flow rate..."
"Some even proposed implanting a micro-device in the brain to increase the oxygen supply of the branch blood..."
Lin Jie froze for a moment, then smiled, "That's also a good line of thinking. But this requires further development in material technology and micro-robots, making its current feasibility quite low!"
He continued, "You want to control blood flow speed? That's tough for arterial blood, unlike venous blood with stable speeds and little fluctuation..."
Lin Jie suddenly paused!
A flash of inspiration seemed to flit across his mind.
This flash seemed vital; if grasped, it could solve the current problem.
What was this flash?
Lin Jie took a deep breath; to recreate the flash, he needed to recreate the previous dialog...
He recalled, repeating, "You want to control blood flow speed? That's tough for arterial blood, unlike venous blood with stable speeds and minor fluctuations..."
"That's tough for arterial blood, unlike venous blood with stable speeds and minor fluctuations..."
Tian Xiangyu, Huo Guangheng, and others saw Lin Jie suddenly ignore others, entering self-talk; they understood Lin Jie had found inspiration.
In a vague sense, it was a kind of enlightenment!
They communicated via eye contact or gestures to keep others quiet, not to disturb Lin Jie!
"Arterial blood... venous blood..."
"Artery... vein..."
Lin Jie suddenly stood up in excitement, "I just thought of a better solution, hurry up and eat! Then let's head to the office to study its feasibility together!"
