Chapter 31 He's even faster
After the match against Juventus.
The football world ushered in a two-week international match day. In the second week, Materazzi was transferred to San Raffaele Hospital.
this day.
Bright sunlight streamed in through the window.
Lin Mu sat by the hospital bed. He originally wanted to ask what exactly happened on the field, but after thinking about it, he withdrew his curiosity.
He then said, "Marco, you love your family very much. Don't be so impulsive next time you play."
"I'm always like this."
Materazzi replied weakly.
forest:"......"
Ok.
He realized that these athletes were incredibly stubborn.
And that's not wrong either.
After a brief examination of Materazzi.
Lin Mu also went to check on Christian Victor and Luca Bertini.
Both of them are recovering quickly.
He is already able to walk on his own two legs without crutches, and if nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to resume light training by the end of December.
I just finished here.
He received another call from Isinbayeva.
"I'm going back to Russia tomorrow. Thank you for the treatment. I think I can break my record at the pole vault invitational next February. Remember to keep an eye out for it!"
"OK."
Lin Mugang finished speaking.
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
He thought Isinbayeva had hung up.
I picked up my phone and saw that I was still on a call, so I added, "Keep it up, the sky's the limit for you."
"Thanks."
The last thing Lin Mu heard was Isinbayeva's clear laughter.
"Dr. Wood, you're ready."
There was a knock on the door. Lin Mu put his phone on the table, put on his white coat, and went out.
The hospital scheduled two surgeries for me today.
Both are ACL reconstruction techniques.
Because Christian Victor and the other player recovered so well.
It caused a small ripple in the sports world.
Yes.
It's just a "minor" ripple, after all, none of the patients who underwent surgery have returned to the competition.
Whether he can perform emergency stops, turns, and landings as well as he did before the injury remains to be seen.
Moreover, postoperative data does not tell the whole story.
Inside the operating room, a host of big names were present, including Lin Mu's mentor Roberto Mochini, the head of the rehabilitation department Franceschini, and the deputy head of orthopedics Cody Anderson.
"Do it well, don't rush."
Roberto Mochini gave his instructions.
Because in a few days UEFA and the Milan laboratory will jointly hold a sports medicine forum lecture.
It mainly refers to the data analysis system developed by the Milan Lab in collaboration with high-tech companies such as Microsoft, as well as university labs and experts.
Other hospitals also share some special cases and studies.
San Rafael Hospital also received an invitation.
There's no way I won't go.
But if you're going to do it, you have to have something to offer. Lin Mu previously broke the hospital's record for ACL reconstruction surgery, which is something that can barely be considered something to offer.
However, this technique is not particularly difficult.
So today's player is from Partizan Belgrade, suffering from an ACL tear and a barrel tear of the lateral meniscus.
This would then become a perfect case study.
"The lateral meniscus has too much mobility, and it is easy for it to shift again after repositioning, which could injure the popliteal tendon."
A chief physician in orthopedics whispered, "Is it appropriate to let inexperienced Wood do this? This isn't just a simple ACL reconstruction."
"He was vouched for by Roberto."
Cody Anderson, the associate chief of orthopedics, had a sinister look in his eyes.
He knew all along that Roberto Mochini wanted to separate the sports rehabilitation department from the orthopedics department.
But this would harm the interests of orthopedics.
Why?
It's important to know that in Italy, sports injury patients are often the most sought-after patients for orthopedics. Italian Serie A players, professional athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and so on—who among them doesn't have money?
There are also huge rebates on surgical consumables.
If the sports rehabilitation department independently performs surgeries such as ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair.
The orthopedics department will inevitably lose its bargaining power in procurement.
Not to mention personnel decisions, equipment budgets, and talent.
Therefore, he was more than happy to see the trees overturn.
"Are you ready?"
Lin Mu calmly held the scalpel and spoke.
The anesthesia and equipment personnel all nodded in agreement, but the anesthetized patient did not.
Everyone was very excited.
"It's great to work with Dr. Wood. You can get a subsidy and performance bonus for each arthroscopic surgery in no time."
The anesthesiologist couldn't wait to see his payslip.
The scrub nurse nodded.
In the past, when I performed surgeries with other doctors, I was always afraid that something might go wrong during the process.
They'll also be penalized with performance-based pay.
Now, with Lin Mu by my side, I don't have to worry about anything; I just need to do my job well.
In the observation room outside.
Associate Chief Orthopedic Surgeon Cody Anderson explained in a low voice to his student beside him, "The standard procedure involves first making two approaches to the knee joint, one anteromedial and one anterolateral, to establish an arthroscopic channel. The angle is controlled at 30 degrees, avoiding the patellar vessels and synovium..."
But the next second he fell silent.
After quickly cutting open the path, the arthroscope was inserted and only glanced at the surface.
Without the slightest hesitation, a double channel was established through the puncture.
"The first step in the repair is repositioning. The lateral meniscus has a large range of motion, and just finding the fragments and repositioning it takes more than ten minutes..."
Cody Anderson muttered to himself.
As he prepared to continue his explanation.
The trees under the operating lights moved again.
Clean the synovium with a planer, then loosen the adhesions with a hook knife, and finally grab the barrel handle that has been turned into the intercondylar fossa with pliers.
Hook it back little by little.
This step, though somewhat cautious, also relieved Cody Anderson.
However, once the tree is precisely aligned with the torn petals and the suture is completed from the inside out, it can be done.
It's time to rebuild the ACL.
Tunnel preparation, tendon transplantation, fixation, and tension adjustment.
Every step was fluid and graceful.
"Is Dr. Wood faster?"
"I think it was last month, that surgery was less difficult, but Wood didn't perform it as quickly as he's doing now?"
"Could it be that you didn't sleep well?"
Cody Anderson turned to look at Roberto Mochini in shock.
All I saw was a bland face.
But in reality, Roberto Mochini's other side of his face was twitching slightly.
He sees things more clearly than others.
The details of Lin Mu's surgery differed from his own.
He hadn't figured it out yet.
Suddenly I thought of Luca Bertini, who recovered even faster.
Then it dawned on me.
Lin Mu predicts the direction of postoperative muscle contraction and the elastic tension of soft tissue.
Tension compensation is reserved in advance during surgery.
Isn't this a bit too outrageous?
The surgery, which usually takes 90 minutes, ended at 38 minutes.
Lin Mu took off his mask.
The marks on my face are still very faint.
When they came out of the operating room, everyone was still a little dazed, especially Roberto Mochini.
He has studied this technique for so many years.
Nobody dares to say it's that fast.
"Fast doesn't necessarily mean good. Let's wait and see how the patient fares after the surgery before deciding whether to submit this case."
Cody Anderson, the associate chief of orthopedics, left a message and walked away.
