Chapter 0357: Big Topic

The regional competition for the Golden Knife Award proceeded methodically, becoming increasingly competitive, and the harsh scoring made it increasingly difficult to achieve full marks.

Yan Jiejun from Fuer and Su Fengyu from Fu Yi, dropped out of the full-scoring camp in the third round of surgeries due to the same mistake.

In a surgery for a distal humeral comminuted fracture, they incorrectly chose the suture for the cosmetic incision of a young female patient and were deducted points.

In the past, articular locations were contraindications for cosmetic suturing. The advantage of cosmetic suturing is fewer scars, but it is not as secure as regular interrupted suturing.

After joint surgery, early rehabilitation training is necessary, typically starting the day after surgery, in order to achieve satisfactory joint function.

The less robust cosmetic suturing cannot meet the needs of early rehabilitation training and can lead to cuts easily opening during movement.
