Miracle Doctor, Wild Empress: Genius Summoner

Chapter 79 - Craniotomy

Translated by Luxican

In the half an hour, the boy's head had swollen a lot, now the head looked like a balloon.

Doctor Fan determined that the other injuries weren't that serious. The boy's most serious injury was the head that had been kicked by a horse.

He believed that there were blood clots in the child's brain.

The only way to remove the blood clots was to open the child's brain.

This approach was foreign and appalling on the Wu JI Continent, but Yun Sheng, who came from the modern times, thought the same as him.

But Yun Sheng also realized that there was danger in surgery on the brain and skull.

Even in modern times, the head was considered the most vulnerable part of the human body. Even if the craniotomy was performed with the modern precision medical equipment, there was still a high risk.

Therefore, Yun Sheng knew the side effects of transcranial surgery. In fact, Doctor Fan had a similar experience before. That surgery caused the lower body of the patient to be paralyzed and he was still lying on the bed to this day.

But even if it was a failure, it was better than death, so Doctor Fan would not hesitate to perform the surgery on the boy.

Although Yun Sheng had lived in the medical hall for a while, she had never entered Doctor Fan's room. But she found that Doctor Fan used various instruments that were somewhat similar to what was used in western medicine.

There was a complete human skeleton there. No wonder the outside world thought Doctor Fan was a murderous Ghost Doctor.

Doctor Fan was also paying attention to Yun Sheng's reaction. He thought Yun Sheng would show a horrified expression after seeing the skeleton. But she only glanced at it, without response.

"According to what you said, you should have seen a craniotomy before, later, when I perform the surgery, if anything is wrong, you have to immediately say it," in front of Yun Sheng's steady appearance, Doctor Fan had completely forgotten that she was only a six-year-old child. He even regarded her as a doctor of the same caliber as himself.

"Very well, the room is too dark. Do you have a bigger mirror? It will be better to use the floor," Yun Sheng measured Doctor Fan's room from the perspective of a modern doctor. The room was too narrow and messy. The most important thing was that there was not enough light and alcohol for disinfection, hemostatic agents. And the animal tendons also needed to be disinfected. It seemed that they weren't well prepared.

After being reminded by Yun Sheng, Doctor found the mirror, also alcohol and the animal tendons that Yun Sheng requested, but he had no hemostatic agent prepared.

"Why is there no hemostatic agent? The most dangerous thing for cranial puncture is cerebral hemorrhage. If there is no hemostatic agent, what should we do if the patient bleeds?" Yun Sheng couldn't help exclaim.

"The hemostatic agent is needed in ancient medicine. You forgot that I study magic. I don't use hemostatic agents for hemostasis, I have other methods to stop the bleeding," Doctor Fan said, and began the skull surgery.

The Wu JI Continent did not have X-Ray machines, nor any equipment for looking inside the body. Yun Sheng's Shen Nong pupils were only at the beginning stages, and she still couldn't see the congestions in the child's brain yet.

But in this regard, Doctor Fan played a big role. His hand, groping the child's head for only a few moments, quickly fell on the back of the child's head.

Judging from the wound, the horse must have hit the back of his head.

And this should be the place where the most congestions accumulated.

After confirming the location of the congestion, Doctor Fan's hand exhaled a cold ice gas. Yun Sheng saw that the water elements were quickly condensing on his hand, forming an inferior version of her beast bone scalpel.

Using magic elements to condense a knife?

Yun Sheng couldn't help being dumbfounded after witnessing this scene.

Although the knife was only formed with water elements, it could be harder than the bone scalpel, and its shape could be transformed according to the magician's requirements!

Was this the perfect fusion of magic and ancient medicine?

Yun Sheng seemed to have entered a brand-new field. The combination of magic and ancient medicine may even be able to make up the lack of medical equipment on the Wu JI Continent. Yun Sheng's heartbeat became rapid, and she felt the need to further develop in this direction. Now, she wanted to witness the power of this technique.

Under the reflection of the floor mirror, the room became much brighter.

This was also very useful to Doctor Fan for performing the surgery.

The ice scalpel cut through the back skin of the boy's head, and soon the skull covered with nerves and small hair vessels was exposed.

Blood also instantly started to flow out, but the icy cold of the scalpel made the blood coagulate.

Perfect!

In this way, there would be no risk of so-called massive bleeding.

In fact, in modern medical treatment, there had been cases of using frozen tissue to treat some diseased tissue, but the magic elements were more gentle than modern medical equipment. It could also freeze the blood without harming the inside of the patient.

This method was even faster than Yun Sheng's use of needles to stop bleeding.

No wonder Doctor Fan said he didn't need to use hemostatic medicine.

At this point, half of the surgery had been completed, and Yun Sheng could see the thick blood clot with her naked eye.

That was the big blood clot that caused the boy's brain to swell and fall into the coma.

The next thing was to smash the blood clot in the boy's brain, and so, release it.

The ice scalpel in Doctor Fan's hands gradually became thinner. He cleaned the blood clots on the child's brain little by little.

All the congested blood was gathered in a small basin on the ground.

When the blood clots were almost cleared, Doctor Fan's pupils shrank violently, and he realized that he didn't have enough magic power to maintain the ice scalpel.

Due to his late start at training, he was just a Magician and at that, only a simple Water Magician. He simply had not enough magic power to complete the surgery. Last time, he also couldn't hold on until the last moment, which caused the patient to be paralyzed for life.

"Doctor Fan, let me take over," Yun Sheng took a step forward. She held the shiny knife in her hand, and he saw her fingers move flexibly, moving in the boy's brain at a speed that was difficult to follow, and cleaned the remaining blood clots.

Yun Sheng's expression was dignified. After draining the residual blood from the boy's head, she quickly began to sew the wound.

She was as swift as a dragon while sewing. And the boy's head was perfectly stitched together under her sewing, only a few small stitches could be seen.

The whole process was almost instantaneous.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Doctor Fan would have never believed that someone could complete such a difficult stitch in such a short amount of time.

Just who was Yun Sheng?
