Unlike other doctors, Markus had met Yang Ping in Malaysia and seen his surgery, hence he held great respect for his teacher's teacher.
"We are all very familiar with this case. We have been responsible for it for more than twenty years, and have discussed it countless times. We eventually agreed to forgo surgery due to its impossibility. We have been waiting for medical advancements to possibly provide a solution. Finally, we have reached this moment. During my recent studies abroad with my tutor, I acquired a lot. I, too, previously believed that this case could not be operated on. However, after my studies, I learned that not only can this case undergo surgery, but it can also be performed as an emergency procedure under the support of ECMO, completely relieving the load on the circulatory system and allowing the heart to sustain for some more time."
