The Sports Healer Starting from Milan

2005 12 Month 24 Day.

San Rafael Hospital.

Inside the operating room.

Lin Mu casually glanced at the video footage.

This includes Batistuta's bilateral knee anteroposterior and lateral radiographs, knee flexion axial radiographs, arthrography, and MRI.

Fu Haoqiang, standing nearby, was secretly amazed.

No matter how many times he assisted Lin Mu in surgery.

He couldn't understand how Lin Mu could remember the extent of cartilage wear, the location of the meniscus tear, and the number of loose bodies with just a glance.

That's absolutely insane.

Orthopedic doctors from other nearby hospitals were also amazed.

Stephen, standing in the corner, curled his lip, thinking that nowadays, if you want to be Lin Mu's assistant, you have to be at least at the deputy director level.

A junior attending physician like him.

If it weren't for the fact that he was a doctor at St. Raphael Hospital and had a fairly good relationship with Lin Mu...

I'm afraid they won't even be able to get into the operating room.

"One more question: were pain medications stopped three days before the surgery, and were cephalosporin antibiotics used?"

Before cutting the tree, Lin asked as was customary.

Both the nurse and the anesthesiologist replied, "We did it."

Lin Mu nodded.

Batistuta's lower limb condition is too severe.

We must be cautious.

But he doesn't feel as much pressure doing it as before.

After all, so many experience points were added.

Moreover, he currently has nearly 450 experience points, in case anything goes wrong during the surgery.

Just add points and you're done.

"It's still the standard surgical procedure for one knee."

Lin Mu had just finished speaking.

Two standard arthroscopic inlets, one on the anteromedial side and one on the anterolateral side, were then established in Batistuta's right knee joint.

Fu Haoqiang's eye twitched.

Correct!

That's right!

Standard surgical procedure for a single knee!

But the problem is, who in the world is as fast as you?

Arthroscopy was used to explore the lesion area from the suprapatellar bursa to the posterior aspect of the joint.

this step.

Lin Mu worked with lightning speed, so fast that many people in the room didn't even see it clearly.

He then began using a planer to remove the proliferating inflammatory synovium.

Because of the long-term presence of arthritis.

There will inevitably be loose bone fragments inside the joint.

Batistuta, for example, had quite a few free-floating objects the size of soybeans, or even larger.

In a fantasy novel.

They might say Batistuta has developed knee joint problems.

Lin Mu smiled at this thought, his hands moving without stopping, the gripper acting like a claw machine.

All free bodies, regardless of size, were removed.

Then came the meniscus repair.

Patients like Batistuta who have retired and no longer play football.

In fact, a meniscus repair would have been more appropriate.

Because their lives no longer revolve around sports, but rather around life itself.

"Will Dr. Wood offer continuing education courses?"

"I asked the deputy chief of orthopedics at Massachusetts General Hospital."

"There are no plans for now, but there will be in the future."

Lin Mu painted a rosy picture for everyone present.

Not only that.

After suturing and trimming Batistuta's meniscus.

He then performed a double-bundle ACL reconstruction procedure on the side.

That's right.

It just happened to be convenient.

Because he had already mastered this technique.

He did it so quickly and accurately that everyone watching sighed in admiration.

I hadn't taken any continuing education courses before.

I only knew that Lin Mu's level was high, but now that I've taken an advanced course and learned about double-bundle reconstruction, I realize just how high Lin Mu's level really is.

There was a minor mishap during the surgery.

Bleeding inside the joint cavity.

The surgical field is blurred.

To everyone's surprise, the trees seemed unaffected.

Several bleeding points were quickly located and hemostatic gel was used to stop the bleeding.

"Cartilage microfractures..."

In orthopedics.

There's a saying that goes, "Break and rebuild," meaning that if you fracture a previously injured area, it can heal much faster.

Therefore, microfracture surgery came into being.

Five and a half hours later.

"The surgery is over, and it went quite well."

Lin Mu let out a long sigh of relief.

He had rarely performed such a long surgery before.

In orthopedics, this is nothing.

Internal fixation for fractures like the pelvis or acetabulum can be used in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

Working twelve hours a day is very common.

If microscopic procedures are required, such as finger regeneration or complete severance of the lower leg, it is common to perform these procedures for more than ten hours.

And orthopedic surgery, too.

They would readily swing a sledgehammer and chisel.

It also consumes a lot of the practitioner's physical strength.

Lin Mu walked out of the operating room, his vision blurring, and Stephen quickly supported him.

The nurse immediately handed over a bottle of energy drink.

Lin Mu felt better after finishing the drink. When he saw Zanetti and Batistuta's family, he went up to them and explained the surgical procedure.

"not bad."

Lin Mu used three words to describe his surgery.

Zanetti and the others finally felt relieved.

Seeing Batistuta urinate in his hospital bed, he knew that for the proud Batistuta, it was tantamount to trampling Batistuta's dignity into the ground.

He put himself in that shoes.

I don't even dare to think about what I would have done back then.

"Thank you! Thank you, Dr. Wood!"

Batistuta's family expressed their gratitude with tears in their eyes.

"It's what I should do."

Lin Mu said politely.

The hospital did receive payment.

Not a lot.

Of course, he also gave Batistuta a break because of Moratti and Zanetti.

Otherwise, there would really be a queue.

It's estimated that the surgery won't be possible until the end of January.

After all, there are too many patients coming here because of our reputation.

Zanetti and others went to the ward to see Batistuta, while Lin Mu led the doctors to the conference room for a meeting, mainly a brief review of today's surgery.

When it's all over.

Only then did he have time to eat.

"How can I find time to train?"

Lin Mu rubbed his temples with a worried expression.

I wonder if things will be easier once I open a private clinic in the future.

They were eating.

A transoceanic phone call came in.

"Hello, I am Zhang Xin from the Foreign Affairs Department of the Chinese Volleyball Management Center. Next to me is Dr. Li Yongji, the volleyball team doctor. We obtained your contact information from Mr. Zhao Shun."

"Currently, national women's volleyball player Zhao Ruirui is..."

"The risks of combined surgery are too great. We formally invite you to come to Kyoto to perform the surgery for Zhao Ruirui."

"Of course, we cover all expenses. We provide full translation services, handle all legal documents and medical practice permits, and the surgery fee, labor fee, and equipment fee will be paid in full before the surgery. You only need to bring your team."

Is it convenient for you?

"We immediately sent a formal invitation email, along with Zhao Ruirui's medical records and a scanned copy of the invitation letter."

The women's volleyball training center is located in Kyoto.

Zhang Xin nervously held the microphone. They had discussed it internally many times before, but the combined surgery for a level four knee joint was too difficult.

It can't be done domestically.

The previous surgeries had made the volleyball management center somewhat distrustful of the level of sports medicine in China.

So after several more rounds of discussion.

We decided to invite Lin Mu anyway, even though it would cost a lot of money.

But as long as Zhao Ruirui can be saved.

Then it's all worth it.

After all, the women's volleyball national team was aiming for the championship at the 2008 Olympics held in China.

Zhao Ruirui is a middle blocker for the national team.

It is of great significance to the team.

I just don't know if Dr. Wood, whom Zhao Shun described, is as easy to talk to as he says.
