God-level academic master: My knowledge is the sum of all my students’ knowledge!

August 28.

Changsha, an apartment building.

Tan Hao logged into the surgery live broadcast platform as usual.

As an associate chief physician of the General Surgery Department of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, he hopes to learn something by watching the superb skills of the masters. There is no way, there are too many masters in Xiangya Hospital!

Xiangya Hospital is the cradle of famous medical experts, professors and doctors in the past hundred years of the Xia Dynasty, and has written half of the history of Western medicine in the Xia Dynasty. The father of Chlamydia in the world! The founder of gastroenterology in the Xia Dynasty! The founder of neurology in the Xia Dynasty! The founder of electrocardiography in the Xia Dynasty! The founder of transplant medicine in the Xia Dynasty! The founder of dermatology in the Xia Dynasty!

……

In the history of medicine in Xia country, the people of Xiangya who have left their names in history are as brilliant as stars!

Tan Hao works in such a hospital, so naturally he wants to improve his medical skills all the time.

Although he is only an associate chief physician

, his medical skills are not inferior to those of other top tertiary hospitals!

Tan Hao just wanted to watch the live broadcast of the operation, but he noticed a piece of news——《The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University has officially launched live broadcast of surgeries! 》

Seeing this, he raised his eyebrows.

The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University has also launched live broadcast of surgeries?

Tan Hao did not have a deep impression of this hospital.

The only thing he remembered was that there was an associate professor named Chen Yu in this hospital, who was very good at both theory and practice.

Next.

He followed the news link and jumped into the live broadcast network of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University.

The website page design is very layered.

It is full of live broadcast rooms related to surgery.

Of course, due to time constraints, there are not many live broadcasts of surgeries at night. Fortunately, there are recent video playbacks on the website.

《August 18 video playback: Professor Chen Yu from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University performed ultrasonic rubbing and intraocular lens implantation!》

《August 19 video playback: Professor Chen Yu from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University completed the first robot-assisted treatment of vertebral disc slippage in China!》

《August 20 video playback: Professor Chen Yu from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University completed the first domestically produced single-port robotic gynecological surgery in China!》

《August 22 video playback: Professor Chen Yu from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University completed the first single-arm robot-assisted total hysterectomy in China!》

《August 23 video playback: Professor Chen Yu from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University performed simultaneous cardiac ventricular unblocking + radical renal tumor resection!》

《August 25 video playback: Professor Chen Yu from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University completed the world’s first pig kidney transplantation into a human!》

《August 27 video playback: Professor Chen Yu from the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University completed the world’s first pig heart transplant surgery on a human!》

……

Tan Hao was immediately interested when he saw these live broadcast replays.

He immediately clicked on the play page.

However, the live broadcast network of the First Affiliated Hospital of Suzhou University requires registration to watch.

The qualifications for registration are doctors and medical students.

Tan Hao quickly registered an account to watch the surgical video of pig kidney transplantation.

He wanted to know.

How is the pig kidney transplantation operation performed?

The video begins.

Chen Yu in the picture said to the screen:”The patient of this transplant operation is a patient with end-stage renal failure.

Some time ago, he came to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University for treatment.

Due to the extremely strong rejection reaction, he could not transplant other kidney sources, nor could he use artificial kidneys.

Therefore, there are only two choices for the patient.

Either choose to die or choose to undergo experimental surgery!

In the end, the patient agreed to participate in this pig kidney transplantation experiment.

As we all know, the number of kidneys is limited, and major hospitals across the country are facing a shortage of kidney sources.

Countless patients are waiting in line for kidney sources.

The purpose of today’s experiment is to prepare for the experiment of patients with end-stage renal failure.

If the patient is already in the end stage of the kidney, but there is no suitable kidney source, it is even more impossible to transplant an artificial kidney.

What should the doctor do then?

Once the pig kidney transplant is successful.

In the future, patients with end-stage renal failure can use pig kidneys as a short-term solution until a suitable kidney source appears, or directly transplant permanently.

Of course, the pig kidneys used in our hospital are not ordinary domestic pigs.

They are a kind of genetically modified pigs that have been gene-edited abroad.

This experiment has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University.”

Hearing this,

Tan Hao nodded slightly.

Laymen would be extremely surprised or even curse when they hear about pig kidney transplantation!

How can humans use pig kidneys?

But experts know the tricks!

Pig kidneys are very similar to humans in terms of organ size and anatomical characteristics, and they have a shorter growth cycle and a high reproduction rate.

There is indeed a market for using pig kidneys to replace traditional kidneys!

This patient on the operating table.

He can neither use a normal kidney source nor an artificial kidney.

If he doesn’t try, is he really waiting to die?

……

After Professor Chen Yu introduced the background information, the operation officially began.

The live broadcast equipment of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University is very high-end, with high-definition cameras and panoramic cameras, as well as other hardware equipment.

These devices can clearly display the entire process of the operation in the live broadcast screen.

And it supports multiple camera positions and multiple angles, which can show the details of the operation in all directions.

It even has a microphone interactive function.

In the operating room.

Chen Yu did not directly transplant the pig kidney into the patient’s body.

Instead, it was connected to the thigh blood vessels and placed outside the body.

In this way, it is easier to observe the patient’s condition.

Five hours later.

The operation was successfully completed.

The transplanted pig kidney immediately produced urine and excreted waste creatinine.

The pig kidney is at the junction of the human blood supply and organs, and there is no xenotransplantation problem.

Some indicators in the patient’s body quickly dropped to normal levels.

After the operation.

Chen Yu said to the camera:”At present, the pig kidney transplantation operation is successful.

The next few days will be the key node for whether the patient can survive.

I will inform you of the follow-up situation at that time.

Through this operation, it is certain that pig kidney transplantation is theoretically feasible!

Moreover, the transplantation effect exceeded expectations and is comparable to that of organs from living donors.”

……

After the video was played,

Tan Hao fell into deep thought.

He had also performed many kidney transplants.

Some kidneys donated by deceased patients often cannot function immediately and take days to weeks to start to work.

But pig kidneys work immediately!

Next,

Tan Hao clicked on the video playback of the pig heart transplant. At the beginning of the video,

Chen Yu introduced the basic situation of the patient.

The patient was admitted to the hospital a month ago due to serious heart problems and was connected to an extracorporeal membrane oxygenator to maintain his life.

Similarly, the patient’s rejection was serious.

An artificial heart could not be used.

A living heart could not be used.

The patient wanted to stay alive, and the only option in front of him was a pig heart transplant!

The reason why pigs are used to achieve heart transplants is that the large blood vessels of the pig’s heart are the closest to human organs in terms of anatomical and physiological indicators.

Secondly, because primates such as monkeys are smaller in weight, their hearts cannot bear the operation of the human body.

In addition, pigs have strong fertility. Once the relevant biomedical problems are solved, they can provide many organs for humans.

The pig heart transplant operation will begin soon.

Tan Hao watched attentively.

After 8 hours of surgery.

The pig heart was successfully transplanted into the patient’s body!

In the camera screen.

Tan Hao clearly saw that the pig heart gave the patient a pulse and a chance to survive!

It’s really incredible!

Chen Yu said to the camera:”From the current situation.

The relationship between the patient and the new organ, whether rejection begins, requires observation and testing in the next few days.

Doctors watching the live broadcast, please do not imitate it easily.

Because the pig heart we use is a genetically modified pig, not an ordinary domestic pig!

This genetically modified pig has had its growth gene knocked out.

It will not overgrow due to nutrition.

The genetically modified pig also knocked out the protease that adds α-gal to the surface of pig cells.

As a result, pig cells no longer express α-gal, reducing human rejection after transplantation. Finally, I suggest that a medical miniature pig production, education, research and breeding base be established in China. With this genetically modified pig breeding base in Xiaguo, we can devote ourselves to the breeding, research and application transformation of medical pigs and gene-edited miniature pigs for organ transplant donors.

”

……

After the live broadcast replay ended.

Tan Hao felt very complicated.

He thought he had superb medical skills and was very proud of himself.

But after watching the live broadcast of Professor Chen Yu’s surgery, he finally understood what it meant that there are always people better than you!

Pig kidney transplant!

Pig heart transplant!

At least these two operations were beyond his ability to complete!

Not to mention whether he could complete them, he had never even thought about it.

If he encountered patients with terminal renal failure and heart failure who could not use donor transplants or artificial organ transplants, he would have chosen to give up long ago.

However, Professor Chen Yu, who possesses godly medical skills, has taken a brand new path in xenotransplantation!

He has brought hope of life to patients who should have been waiting to die.

……

At the same time, the entire Internet was talking about Chen Yu’s two xenotransplantation surgeries.

“Oh my god! Isn’t Professor Chen Yu’s medical level too high?”

“Replacing a human heart with a pig’s heart, this is truly ‘killing a pig’s heart’!”

“The real version of ‘Human face but pig heart’! Pigs are so great. I decided to eat less pork in the future!”

“Success with a human face and a pig heart! Is it still far from being a wolf’s heart and a dog’s lungs?”

“Will we have to rely on pigs for heart transplants or kidney transplants in the future?”

“The growth cycle of a pig is only one year, and it can benefit all mankind in the future!”

“The world is getting more and more outrageous! The speed of medical development is really incredible!”

“Professor Chen Yu is always a god! This is the real benefit to all mankind!”

“No wonder my dad kept asking me to go back to the countryside to raise pigs. It turns out I can really make a lot of money!”

“Wake up, netizen! The pig organs used for transplantation are genetically modified pigs, not the old sows in your pigpen.……”

“Have you noticed? After the news of pig organ transplants appeared, the price of pigs in supermarkets increased by 50 cents.……”

“After reading the news, I suddenly felt that the stir-fried kidneys I had for lunch today were not as delicious.……”
