Chapter 365 Nanami's Surgery Part 2 (Please Subscribe, Request for Monthly Tickets, 6/7)

By the time Chen Yu walked into the operating room, holding up both hands, Nanami had already entered the state of anesthesia, her entire body prone on the operating table, covered by the blue surgical cloth, exposing only the lower back area where the surgery was to be performed today.

There was nothing strange about this, yet the expressions on the young nurses around were somewhat odd today, especially the instrument nurse standing by the operating table, who glanced at Jounouchi Hiromi and then at Chen Yu, with a peculiar and amused look in her eyes.

"What's wrong? Did something happen just now? Everyone has such an expression," sensing the odd atmosphere in the operating room, Chen Yu asked.

"Nothing much, it's just that this young lady wanted me to tell you that she likes you," Jounouchi Hiromi, situated in the anesthesiologist's seat, looked at Chen Yu with a smile and deliberately used a pinched-voice tone to tell Chen Yu, "I want to tell the doctor brother that I like him, Mr. Chen Yu, you really are popular!"

Hearing Jounouchi Hiromi emulate Nanami's words, the small nurses in the operating room, who had already been holding back their laughter, couldn't restrain themselves any longer, chuckling out loud, and even Doctor Higashiyama and Glasses Doctor, who had followed Chen Yu into the room, couldn't help but suppress a chuckle.

Faced with the operating room bursting into laughter, Chen Yu felt a strong urge to facepalm, but his hands were already sanitized, so he couldn't make such a gesture. Instead, he could only shake his head helplessly and, after approaching and standing in front of the operating table, said, "OK, that's enough laughter, let's be serious about the surgery."

"Yes!" Hearing Chen Yu say that, everyone suppressed their mirth and earnestly responded, ready to start the surgery.

"Let's start with Nanami Kanai's nerve reconstruction surgery," Chen Yu took a deep breath and announced the beginning of the surgery, "Scalpel."

——————————————————

Generally, family members can't observe a patient's surgery, but since Kosuke Kanai was the next Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare, he naturally could enjoy some special privileges.

In the observation room above the operating room, as Kosuke Kanai watched Chen Yu begin the surgery, his feelings shifted from the earlier embarrassment and jealousy to worry.

Upon hearing Doctor Higashiyama's words, the Glasses Doctor and Nakagawa Susumu next to the operating table also leaned in to get a closer look at how exactly Chen Yu was performing the operation.

For them, an opportunity to observe such a surgery was extremely rare.

Seeing the Glasses Doctor and Nakagawa Susumu craning their necks, Chen Yu naturally wouldn't be stingy with guidance and explanation at such a time: "After exposing the damaged nerve, one must be extremely careful because any mistake could lead to irreparable failure. Therefore, a surgeon's hands must be steady, without the slightest error."

"Yes, Professor!" The three assistants at the operating table hurriedly responded in unison.

"Nakagawa, you especially need to pay attention. As a surgeon, your hands are not yet steady enough," after saying that, Chen Yu gestured to the nurse nearby, "Bring the microscope over here."

"Third assistant, be mindful of the suction," Chen Yu reminded, and then took the customized surgical instrument for nerve reconstruction surgery from the hands of the scrub nurse, telling the three before him: "With such nerves that appear to have healed on the surface, even though they seem mended externally, their inner fibers are not completely aligned, and this is the very cause of the patient's paralysis.

Therefore, we now need to reprocess the healed damaged site, that is, sever the incorrectly joined nerve fibers and allow them to reconnect in the correct order. And for this, we will use the seven types of nerve suturing techniques I have proposed."

With that, Chen Yu used the surgical instrument in his hand to sever the exposed nerve, which clearly showed signs of healing, under the microscope's assistance, and began the reconstruction.

Doctor Higashiyama at his side pressed his eyes to the other side of the microscope, carefully assisting with Chen Yu's operation and diligently memorizing each of his movements.

Meanwhile, the Glasses Doctor and Nakagawa Susumu could only stare at the operating table and observe with their naked eyes.

"Use the Fourth Technique here, and remember not to tug on the nerve. If the cut surfaces can't be aligned due to insufficient distance, use the Nerve Regeneration Induction Conduit," instructed Chen Yu as he continued with the operation, guiding the three assistants.
