Masterful Miracle Doctor

Chapter 1124 - 1084: Cover Figure

Lin Jie asked specifically and found that this special professorial appointment had no specific constraints on him and offered quite a few benefits and conveniences.He also thought that in the future, there would definitely be a lot of research collaborations between Anlin Hospital and Binhai University Medical School, along with the existence of medical orientation classes, so he agreed to Cheng Xingguang and expressed his willingness to accept this appointment.

After lunch, just as Lin Jie intended to take a short nap, Ouyang Zhizhen and Chen Lili came to the office.

Seeing their unsmiling faces, Lin Jie frowned and asked, "Today's negotiation didn't go well?"

Ouyang Zhizhen gave a wry smile and said, "When we indicated that we would no longer continue the smart medical system cooperation and proposed to purchase that 3D Laser Stereoscopic Projector, Morrison Industries directly refused us."

"Even when I hinted that we could pay a high price, the other party had not the slightest intention to consider."

"Moreover, they specifically pointed out that the 3D Laser Stereoscopic Projector would be taken back to Germany along with Elenna after discharge."

Damn, this is clearly a failed sale where even goodwill is lost.

Lin Jie rubbed his brow and casually asked, "So, the other party probably won't agree to a collaboration on regular medical equipment either?"

"On this, Morrison Industries did agree."

Ouyang Zhizhen sighed lightly and said, "However, the cooperative terms they proposed were extremely high, it could be said that they are treating us like fat sheep to slaughter."

This news made Lin Jie somewhat angry, and he said directly, "In that case, there's no need to continue negotiating with them."

With determination, he added, "Damn it, in three to five years, I want the leadership of Morrison Industries to collectively regret missing out on a once-in-a-lifetime development opportunity."

Lin Jie took a deep breath, calmed himself, and continued, "The feasibility analysis written by Min Quan and Song Zexing has already been sent to the National Health Commission and the military; we should receive feedback soon."

"For the time being, let's wait for their response and then decide on our next step."

Ouyang Zhizhen nodded and said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll head back first."

Chen Lili did not leave along with him.

Seeing Lin Jie in a somewhat bad mood, she hesitated for a moment but still spoke up, "Lin Jie, about Niu Yilan?"

Before Lin Jie could respond, Chen Lili hurriedly explained, "These days, I've been really troubled by her crying and fussing, so I had to ask on her behalf."

As for Niu Yilan, who was notorious for her many issues, Lin Jie had only a mediocre impression of her.

He replied with annoyance, "Can't wait for more than half a month? If that's the case, let her go find Yao Siyuan. With Yao Siyuan's current skills, he is enough to handle her demands."

Chen Lili acknowledged softly and quietly exited the office.

At four in the afternoon, Lin Jie completed a surgery in the annex building.

Upon stepping out of the annex, he saw Lei Jun, Jiang Hao, and Guan Yifan standing outside.

Lin Jie looked at the three and joked, "With the three famous chief physicians of the affiliated university waiting for me together, you must have something big planned. Go ahead, what happened!"

Jiang Hao humbly said, "We three chief physicians are like elementary school students in front of Expert Lin."

"Expert Lin, we just consulted on a young patient who was transferred here, and unanimously thought you, Expert Lin, would definitely be interested, so we came together to seek your opinion."

"Oh, what kind of patient? Worthy of the heads of your three departments consulting together?" Lin Jie became intrigued.

Guan Yifan didn't speak, just handed over a stack of materials in his hands.

Damn it!

Even though Lin Jie had seen many patients with severe injuries, the sight in the photos still made it hard for him to look directly.

Damn, the injuries are really too gruesome.

This couldn't even be called a face anymore; it looked as if a face had been through a meat grinder, the flesh removed, and then plastered back on.

Not only that, the nose was gone, the left ear was also missing, a large piece of the left mandible was absent, and most of the tongue was gone.

The left eye area was also a bloody mess; Lin Jie immediately knew that this person's left eyeball was undoubtedly shattered.

Lin Jie skimmed through the photos and pulled out a three-dimensional diagram of the facial bones.

The chart showed that most of the left facial bones seemed to have been repeatedly smashed with a large iron hammer, shattered into fragments.

Lin Jie couldn't help but remark, "To be injured this way is truly a miracle! For a child to survive such injuries is indeed a miracle too."

He looked at Jiang Hao and asked, "Is the brain alright?"

Jiang Hao nodded and said, "The patient has been in a protective coma since the injury."

"However, based on several stimulation response tests conducted, the brain's response to stimuli is still relatively normal, and the brain damage is relatively manageable."

Guan Yifan continued, "Expert Lin, you surely wouldn't guess how this seven-year-old child got injured."

"He was the flower boy at the wedding and put a lot of fireworks into a beer can himself. An accident happened, and suddenly it exploded."

"Boom..."

Guan Yifan made a gesture of an explosion, gesturing as he said: "It's equivalent to a homemade shrapnel grenade exploding at close range. In an instant, this face turned into this."

Lin Jie asked in surprise: "The power of fireworks is actually that great?"

Lei Jun sighed: "The gunpowder in the fireworks is not the old gunpowder of sulfur, nitrate, and charcoal anymore. It's all potent explosives, sealed in a confined space in large quantities, so the power is imaginable."

"Expert Lin, after this little boy got injured, he was urgently sent to a nearby hospital for treatment. However, the injury was too severe, and after a simple debridement and hemostasis operation, the patient was transferred to us."

"In our consultation, we roughly calculated that for debridement, bone restructuring, reconstructing the entire left ear, and reconstructing the whole face, it would require at least a dozen major surgeries just to allow this child to barely recover."

Lin Jie looked at Lei Jun, Guan Yifan, and Jiang Hao, saying: "The three of you working together to treat this child shouldn't be too much of an issue for your capabilities, right?"

The three of them looked at each other, and Guan Yifan was the first to speak: "Expert Lin, there's certainly not much of a problem with the three of us treating this child."

"It's just, the postoperative results..."

Guan Yifan spread his hands and sighed: "The child's face is damaged to this extent. I have no confidence to restore his face to look like a normal person."

"Let's put it this way, even if I make him look ugly, it's considered my success."

Lei Jun looked at Lin Jie expectantly and said: "We unanimously believe that only with your intervention, Expert Lin, can we be assured that this child's face won't turn into something monstrous or grotesque, allowing him to grow up avoiding discrimination and fearful looks from others."

Jiang Hao quickly added: "We also know that you are very busy, Expert Lin."

"However, it will take at least one or two years to complete all the surgeries for this child. It involves many areas, and you can completely treat it as a teaching guided surgery, selecting your own suitable times to complete it gradually."

"As for the nearly exorbitant surgical costs, you don't have to worry, Expert Lin."

Jiang Hao explained: "The child's parents have handed over two property titles in Binhai City, worth at least more than ten million. They said they are willing to sell everything they have to save the child."

Lin Jie just smiled and said: "What is the relationship between this child and you three that you unanimously persuaded me?"

Lei Jun shook his head and said: "Frankly, this child, and his family really have no special relationship with us."

"We just saw the child's injury was truly too tragic and severe. And the restoration of his injuries involves complex interdisciplinary comprehensive surgery, which is precisely where your expertise lies, Expert Lin."

Lin Jie looked at the three-dimensional stereoscopic image of the facial bones in his hand, feeling a stirring sense of challenge inside.

He hadn't encountered a surgery that made him feel excited for a long time, and this surgery barely aroused a sense of challenge in Lin Jie.

After pondering for a while, he said: "The restoration of this child's injuries is a big task. I will take it on. You should conduct thorough debridement for him today."

"Tomorrow, I will perform the facial bone reconstruction surgery for him."

Before Lei Jun, Guan Yifan, and others could speak, Lin Jie also instructed: "Place all the pieces of broken bone in the order of their original positions."

"Also, tell the child's family to recover as much of the bone fragments from the explosion as possible!"

Lei Jun asked in surprise: "Expert Lin, aren't you using 3D-printed facial bones for the reconstruction?"

Lin Jie shook his head and said: "The child is only seven years old, in a rapid developmental stage."

"Such a large piece of facial bone, if completely made using bio-organic materials or titanium alloy materials, even if the child's face recovers initially, it will definitely become distorted over time."

Lei Jun worriedly said: "But the facial bones have shattered like this; the difficulty of reassembling the original bones?"

Lin Jie confidently smiled and said: "I've heard that master ceramic restorers can restore smashed ceramics to like-new conditions. We rely on our craft to make a living. Naturally, we mustn't be weaker than they are."

Lei Jun again asked for advice: "Expert Lin, how to solve the support for the broken bones?"

"Facial bones are an irregular curved surface, which is difficult to fix with absorbable threads, and using biological glue alone can only support five or six days."

"And this time is insufficient for the broken bones to heal."

Lin Jie thought of micro-current stimulation.

However, for bone healing micro-current stimulation, he had not conducted the relevant experiments, but he guessed that bone cells should also have an optimal micro-current comfort level.

Lin Jie pondered for a moment and said: "I will think of ways to accelerate the speed of bone healing. If the effect is not obvious, five or six days later, the injured can wear a shaping mask and rest lying down."

"In about ten days, the periosteum should have restored quite a bit, and most of the bone surface should be covered by muscle and fat tissue. In this situation, it's enough to support the continued restoration of the reassembled bones."

Lei Jun thought for a moment, nodded, and did not continue to inquire.

"Teacher! Teacher!"

A few cries of excitement came from behind, and Lin Jie turned around to see Gao Yanhong, Ma Hongmin, Zeng Yang, Zhao Fang, and others waving their phones as they rushed out of the annex.

"Teacher, your paper was published in The Lancet, and you made the cover of The Lancet..."
