Check-in at the Hospital: The First Surgery Shocked the Nation!-Chapter 99 - 80: The Whole Hospital Boils—First Stem Cell Transplant!
In the oncology ward,
Qin Feng took advantage of his off-duty time to come and check on Fang Wenwen.
At this moment, her condition had somewhat worsened. The continuous chemotherapy over the past few months made Fang Wenwen look not particularly well.
However, when she saw him coming, she was still very happy, her eyes seemingly filled with light.
Moreover, from the moment she knew the hospital began to construct [hematopoietic stem cell transplant center], Fang Wenwen asked her mother to bring her high school textbooks over.
Every day, as long as she had time, she would endure the pain to review the knowledge she had learned before, craving it like a person in the desert encountering an oasis.
"Thank you, Dr. Qin."
After chatting for a while, the woman sent Qin Feng to the door, holding her mouth, trying not to cry, and said.
"It’s okay, as long as the matching is successful, she can have the transplant soon."
Qin Feng shook his head and said with a smile,
"When Wenwen recovers, let her go back to school."
"Thank you! Thank you!"
"Okay, I’m leaving first. Take good care of her these two days and help Wenwen recover."
After saying that, Qin Feng waved and walked out of the hospital.
He had a busy day today and needed a good rest.
The next morning,
Qin Feng just completed the sample matching test for Fang Wenwen’s white blood cells when several figures appeared outside the hospital gate, carrying bags and dragging suitcases.
The four people, like curious babies, walked towards the gate, looking around.
"Hey! What are you guys doing?"
The security uncle saw a few people looking around and took the initiative to step forward and asked.
"Hello, we are doctors from Jinling Tumor Hospital, here to report to Dr. Qin."
A man in his early thirties stepped out and smiled.
"Tumor Hospital? Looking for Dr. Qin? You mean Director Qin Feng?"
The security uncle sized up the four people and asked again.
"That’s right, exactly, it’s Qin Feng, could you help us contact him?"
The group was taken aback upon hearing this, then nodded repeatedly.
What did the security just call Qin Feng?
Director?
He really became a director?
This is so surprising!
But thinking of Qin Feng’s brilliance and skills at Jinling Tumor Hospital, it suddenly felt justified.
However, he just became a department director in his first year of training, that’s truly impressive!
Big shots are indeed big shots!
Age doesn’t matter, does it?!
In no time,
Qin Feng received the call and came out. Seeing the four people in front of him, he was also a bit surprised, but he was even more pleased.
He took them to the transplant center building for a brief tour.
Needless to say, the group was astounded!
Not only is the space large here, but the equipment is also currently the most advanced, brand new!
It’s like an ordinary person buying the latest flagship phone, there’s always a bit of excitement when unwrapping it.
And they were the same, having been used to Jinling’s years-old equipment, seeing the latest and best equipment right in front of them, how could they not be tempted?
"How do you feel?"
In the meeting room, Qin Feng looked at the four people, their faces full of excitement.
"It’s absolutely fantastic, Director Qin, can we join?"
The leading man nodded repeatedly, asking expectantly.
"You can."
Qin Feng agreed without hesitation, this was exactly what he wanted!
Although Emperor Renzong of Song was somewhat petty, the basic theory and technical foundation of the people trained under his rigorous regime are quite solid!
Just because of this, Qin Feng still admired him quite a bit.
This time, the four people who came included one attending physician for the transplant center and three resident physicians for the transplant center.
The configuration is quite good!
No need to say more, according to the normal job-hopping standards, each person gets a 40% salary increase, and housing is provided.
Upon hearing this, the four were also extremely excited, this was a considerable sum of money!
"Thank you, Director Qin!"
"Don’t rush to thank me, currently, the transplant center has just been established, and we still need a large amount of fresh blood. The batch of doctors transferred from the hematology department still lacks some knowledge about stem cells."
Qin Feng raised his hand to interrupt them,
"I hope you can impart your experience to them just as I taught you in Jinling before.
Can you do that?" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
"No problem!"
"Don’t worry, Director Qin!"
...
They actually couldn’t wish for more, knowing that when they were in Jinling, what Qin Feng taught them was also greatly beneficial.
Now being able to stay by his side, how could they be afraid of not learning anything?
Then they signed the contract and officially joined.
Qin Feng sat in the office, just showing a satisfied smile when suddenly his phone rang.
It was Emperor Renzong of Song calling.
"Hello, Director Song!"
"Director Qin seems to be in high spirits with the recent promotion, how does it feel?"
On the phone, Emperor Renzong of Song said lightly.
"Hahaha! It’s so-so, I still have to rely on Director Song’s guidance in the future."
Qin Feng chuckled, thinking about the four people who rushed over.
"What? I sent four people to you, are you planning to poach me as well? Can you afford it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Emperor Renzong of Song’s mocking voice.
"You sent them?"
Qin Feng was taken aback, then said in surprise.
"Haha~ Otherwise, do you think they could report to you the next day? You really think you’re that charming!"
Emperor Renzong of Song snorted with a cold laugh,
"Tell that old chap Zhang Tong that I’ve given you both the qualifications and the talent. We’re even now."
"Alright, don’t worry."
Qin Feng paused for a moment after hearing this, then nodded in agreement.
The two experts in the medical field, who hadn’t interacted for half their lives but had been secretly competing, finally let go of their grievances.
This was an unexpected but beautiful outcome!
After hanging up the phone,
Qin Feng received a response from the National Hematopoietic Stem Cell Bank.
They had found a matching stem cell for Fang Wenwen!
This news was highly encouraging for everyone!
It came from a soldier in Guangchuan Province. After being contacted by the authorities, he was happy and immediately agreed to donate.
Subsequently, the Hematopoietic Stem Cell Center in Guangchuan promptly arranged for the donor’s medical examination and sampling.
After another match confirmation, results were obtained.
Fully matched!
Then, by following the principle of proximity, the donation took place in Guangchuan.
This minimizes inconvenience, as the marrow could be extracted and directly airlifted to Jiangcheng for the transplant.
After five days of collection, news came from Guangchuan that 50ml of bone marrow had been successfully collected!
It would be airlifted over immediately!
(The method for collecting bone marrow here differs from traditional puncture extraction; it uses peripheral blood stem cell collection.
During the three days before collection, hematopoietic stem cell activators are injected to induce a large number of hematopoietic stem cells from the red marrow into the bloodstream, followed by vascular puncture for blood extraction.
Then the blood is separated, and the hematopoietic stem cells are extracted out.
This method does not affect the donor and is a safe and effective way to collect stem cells, though time-consuming.)
....
In no time, this news spread throughout the hospital, and all the doctors and nurses became thrilled.
This would be the first stem cell transplant surgery at Jiangcheng City First Hospital!
Highly significant!
"Qin Feng, have the hematopoietic stem cells arrived?"
In the Dean’s office, Zhang Tong looked at Qin Feng and asked.
"Yes, they arrived at our stem cell bank two hours ago, Dean."
He nodded, appearing calm.
"Good, when will the surgery begin?"
Zhang Tong nodded and inquired.
"We’re starting preparations today; we can proceed with the stem cell transplant at any time."
"Qin Feng, this is our hospital’s first stem cell transplant surgery, and represents Jiangcheng’s reputation. Are you confident?"
Zhang Tong was still somewhat nervous. After all, this was a tremendous effort.
If anything went wrong, it would not only affect the reputation of City First Hospital, but also all of Jiangcheng.
So he hoped to get a final assurance.
"Don’t worry, Dean Zhang, I am confident."
Qin Feng’s face lit up with a faint smile, speaking with confidence.
"Then follow through with your plan, I fully support you on behalf of City First Hospital!"
Zhang Tong sighed in relief and nodded affirmatively at his words.
At this point, there was no turning back!
For the qualification of this transplant center, he had risked everything, including his reputation, so what else was there to fear?
The next day,
Qin Feng personally oversaw the surgery preparations.
As stem cell transplantation is a complex and lengthy process, every detail must be meticulously planned.
First, confirm the accuracy of the stem cells sent from Guangchuan and perform another match confirmation!
Success!
Then, they began the pre-surgery preparations.
Fang Wenwen also underwent her final medical examinations, and upon confirming there were no issues, she was moved from the ward to the transplant center’s sterile chamber.
Subsequently, medications were used to suppress and remove the abnormal hematopoietic stem cells in Fang Wenwen’s body, which maximizes the proliferation and division of new hematopoietic stem cells once they enter her body.
...
Three days later,
Everything was ready!
The transplant surgery was about to commence!
By now, the transplant center was silent, yet countless eyes were intently watching.
Fang Wenwen was transferred from the sterile chamber to the operating room, and Qin Feng, Ji Zhonghe, and Du Jian opened the operating room door and began sterilization procedures.
After donning sterile gowns, gloves, masks, and other gear, they entered the operating theater.
Qin Feng looked at Fang Wenwen lying on the operating table, her bald head somewhat cute.
"Brother Qin Feng, if I get better, will my hair grow back?"
Fang Wenwen blinked her big eyes at the three, then pouted,
"I don’t like being bald; it’s too ugly."
"Once you are well, you’ll have beautiful long hair again."
Qin Feng and the others exchanged smiles and reassured her.
"Brother Qin Feng, if I can really survive, I also want to be a doctor as skilled as you in the future!"
Fang Wenwen responded with a bright smile, her face showing determination as she spoke heavily.
"Don’t worry, you definitely can!"
Qin Feng said with a smile, nodding confidently,
"Believe in yourself, and believe in me too."
"Mm!"
Fang Wenwen slowly closed her eyes, the smile on her lips so bright.
Everyone exchanged glances and revealed relieved smiles.
"Proceed with anesthesia."
Qin Feng nodded to the anesthesiologist and spoke in a deep voice.
As Fang Wenwen slipped into unconsciousness, the transplant surgery officially began!
The transplant process was practically akin to the collection of hematopoietic stem cells, unlike the grand and thrilling scenes in other surgical departments.
There was no blood from incisions, no "ka-ka" from the bone saw, no "zzz" from cuts.
It was more like a silent battle between Qin Feng and Fang Wenwen against leukemia!
