[Ding! Quest from Ruth: Surgical removal of appendicitis! Reward for successful quest: appendectomy experience +200! copper coins +300!]
The system's quest beep sounded in Charlotte's mind.
Looking at Ruth's expectant gaze, as well as the system's extraordinarily generous reward, Charlotte, however, was a little frightened.
He had cut his appendix, but he was lying on a hospital bed!
And it was under anesthesia at the time, so he couldn't quite remember the exact details.
Even if you remember how to move the knife, what, this is not to kill a pig, experienced surgery and dare to do it yourself?
Even if it's a minor operation, it's not something he can just do.
He is a veterinarian, can not dare to say that after cutting open the stomach, can recognize which is the appendix, which is the appendix, which is the colon ah, if a knife cut wrong, that is another story.
"Boss, what is acute appendicitis? Can you really cure it?" With an inquisitive mind, Vivian couldn't help but ask curiously.
"This acute appendicitis ..." Charlotte mused, out of the mentality of curing the sick and saving people, he naturally didn't want Ruth to die from the pain of acute appendicitis, but it was also true that he, as a clinically experienced veterinarian, didn't master the skill of cutting the appendix.
It's just that the situation is urgent now, and the words have been spoken, so how should this be resolved now?
[Ding! Detected the host's first main appendectomy, obtaining the appendectomy guide opportunity once!
The system's voice rang out.
Then Charlotte found that a red dot appeared out of Ruth's lower right abdomen, and there was a note: [Mai's point: the best incision location for appendix surgery!
Charlotte blinked her eyes, the red dot was still conspicuous, and the remark didn't disappear.
The remarks were still the same remarks, but it was the first time they had appeared in surgery.
"Isn't this hand-holding!" Charlotte's eyes lit up, and her confidence didn't come.
"This acute appendicitis ah is a minor problem, but it is necessary to remove the lesion in time, otherwise it is very torturous." Charlotte looked at Vivian and assiduously said, "But those doctors who only know magic because they can't use magic to treat the symptoms, they make having such a
minor ailments as godforsaken people to cover up their incompetence."
"Really?" Vivian wasn't quite convinced.
She hadn't even heard of this minor ailment Charlotte was talking about, and if it was just a minor ailment, then why didn't the healing spell work?
"Prepare for surgery." Charlotte didn't explain much and directly ordered.
Although it was just one more guideline, after doing the appendix surgery in the first place, he had watched some related videos and papers, and had a rough idea about the procedure, and the process was a little more careful, so it shouldn't be a problem.
Even if he really cut it wrong, there was still an intermediate level magician backing him up, so it wasn't a big problem.
"Don't worry, even if God gives up on you, I won't give up on you." Charlotte held Ruth's hand and looked at her with a firm gaze.
Warm strength came from her palm, Ruth's eyes instantly moistened again, and that firm gaze calmed her heart even more, nodding slightly, "I believe in you."
"Did the other medical centers get you analgesic potions?" Charlotte asked again.
Ruth had acted completely like a normal person when she first walked in the door, not that she was that strong, it was mostly because she had taken an analgesic potion to suppress the pain.
Unluckily, this thing Charlotte didn't have in his hand, the only thing he had was the coma potion, the stability of that thing was so bad that a person in a coma opening up might wake up straight away because of the pain.
Ruth's trembling hand touched a black vial from the small bag on her waist and whispered, "There is one last bottle."
Charlotte uncorked the bottle and a faint fishy odor wafted in, like fish soup that hadn't been deodorized, the smell wasn't good, but Ruth had already proved that the effect seemed to be pretty good.
He took another bottle of stupor potion and helped Ruth sit up, "You drink both of these potions and then sleep for a while, you'll be fine when you wake up."
Ruth obediently drank both potions, and before passing out, looked at Charlotte fondly, "Doctor, if I don't wake up, please be sure to remember me. It must be lonely if no one remembers if you die."
"Don't worry, get some sleep and I'll wake you up." Charlotte eased her down onto the surgical bed.
No sooner had her head touched the bed than Ruth passed out.
Painkillers plus a coma potion, this was the relatively reliable anesthesia Charlotte could find at the moment.
There were two advantages of letting Ruth fall into a coma, one was that she was afraid that she would not be able to accept that she had been disemboweled leading to the interruption of the surgery, and the other was that if there was a mistake during the surgery, Vivian might need to take action to fix the situation.
Vivian walked into the operating room with the sterilized surgical instruments, looked at Ruth who had already fallen into unconsciousness, and whispered, "Boss, are you really going to open Ruth's sister?"
She still didn't quite believe that Charlotte was able to cure a patient who had been judged by other doctors as a godforsaken person, which was undoubtedly challenging the authority of the gods.
"Young people should learn to accept new ideas, don't be superstitious about authority, and even less about the so-called gods." Charlotte sterilized her hands with a cleaning potion and looked at Vivian and said in a serious tone, "Today I'll let you see the knowledge that is not taught in the medical school, and unmask the hypocritical mask of those guys."
Vivian's throat moved, but did not utter another retort, looking at Charlotte's gaze questioning with a hint of ... Expectation?
She wasn't sure why she was expecting it.
For a doctor, this was a complete subversion of faith in speech and behavior ah!
Maybe it was because she didn't want her pretty sister lying on the operating bed to survive?
Or maybe she had come to believe in Charlotte somewhat?
Or was it that Charlotte's surgery had shocked her so much in the past two days that it had loosened her faith a little?
"The area I need to perform the surgery on is this one, you undo her dress and skirt, perform a full body cleaning on her, and then cover it with a sterilized cloth to reveal only this one." Charlotte explained to Vivian and consciously turned first and headed out of the operating room.
Three minutes later, Vivian went out and signaled that Charlotte could go in.
Charlotte entered the operating room, sterilized her hands again, and then took the most compact dagger from the tray.
The dagger was as big as a paring knife even though it was small, it wasn't delicate enough to use for surgery, Charlotte decided to go to a blacksmith this afternoon to customize a more compact scalpel.
Not every patient was as thick-skinned as a lizardman, and for a pretty young lady like Ruth, a scarab blade like this could be too bad.
"Prepare yourself on the side, if there's an unexpected situation like hemorrhaging, you might need to help deal with it with healing magic."
Charlotte said before she moved the knife, looking at Vivian who was standing at the other end of the operating bed.
Vivian glanced at the unconscious Ruth and nodded.
Taking a deep breath, Charlotte let her somewhat nervous mood quickly calm down, her gaze became calm, not a single distraction in her mind, and her hand holding the scalpel became extraordinarily stable.
On Ruth's flat, smooth lower right abdomen, the system marked the location of McSweeney's point with a red line.
This was the projection area of the appendix on the surface of the body, from where the incision could be made to minimize damage.
Like countless surgeries performed on dogs and cats, Charlotte made an oblique incision in Ruth's lower right abdomen at the McSweeney's point, cutting through the tendon membrane of the external abdominal obliquity muscle layer by layer, separating the external abdominal obliquity muscle and internal abdominal obliquity muscle, lifting up and incising the peritoneum into the abdomen, and then the abdominal cavity was opened up and unfolded to Charlotte's face.
Also popping up was a series of red markings.
