The surgery resumed.
TIPS surgery was supposed to be full of challenges, but in the hands of Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf Wagner, the surgery progressed so smoothly, it was a boring affair for the observers.
For each surgery, they managed to establish the connection between the hepatic vein and portal vein in their first attempt.
The TIPS procedure appeared to be as simple as treating an ultrasound-diagnosed hepatorenal cyst. Zheng Ren's movements were so methodical, it gave people the impression that he was not even performing surgery.
It took 30 minutes to complete one surgery. Zheng Ren operated like a machine, in spite of the different patient conditions and tweaks in the methods. The time management was impeccable.
Director Ren, Director Zhang and the others in the control room watched on impassively.
There was a vast difference between the skill level of the doctors in the control room and the ones in the operating room.
