When the Doctor Uses A Hack

For Oli and Judy, the four-year-old twins had already begun to fill with curiosity about this world!

They had finally realized their uniqueness!

Even in the eyes of other children, they were monsters.

Monsters with two heads, four arms, and four legs!

But they were clearly two people, not monsters.

Worry and isolation started to take root in their young minds!

Until one day, their grandfather told them that they could be separated, at that moment, both were extremely happy.

Do not think that conjoined twins really like each other sincerely; it's just because they cannot be separated, they must adapt to this condition.

When their thoughts matured, various ideas also emerged in their hearts.

After all, they were ultimately two independent individuals.

Oli was happy and hugged Judy, giving her a kiss, "Judy, even after we are separated, I'll still sleep with you. Don't be afraid!"

At this time, Chen Cang said, "I'm going to check on the children first."

Hubert nodded and said to the children, "He comes from the magical land of China, and he will help you complete the separation ceremony, so don't be nervous."

Oli and Judy widened their eyes curiously at Chen Cang and dared not speak.

Once Chen Cang had the twins lie down, he began to touch them carefully, feeling the inside of their abdomens.

He was very careful and did not ignore traditional examination methods just because there were imaging results. Sometimes, the hands could feel many things.

These things could even be more real than imaging results, like now.

Chen Cang then auscultated areas such as the abdomen and heart...

After about fifteen minutes or so, Chen Cang let go of the children.

Oli, being braver, quietly asked, "Can we be separated?"

Chen Cang looked at the little girl with blonde hair staring at him with big eyes and couldn't help but smile, "Sleep for a bit, and when you wake up, you'll be separated!"

On hearing this, joy filled Oli's eyes.

Then, the group got up and went to another room, where the nurses began to prepare the two little girls for surgery.

Inside the room, many different imaging results were produced.

Everyone began discussing them after viewing the images.

Both CT and MRI could not clearly show hollow organs such as the digestive tract; to observe them specifically, one actually needed to open up and investigate in detail.

However, the contrast radiography of the digestive tract showed that the duodenum was entangled but without a common channel, which might be good news as it meant not needing to divide a single digestive tract between two people.

But the troublesome part was that this entanglement was not merely superficial like tied ropes; it was more likely they had grown together.

This would make separation quite difficult.

Liver separation!

Pancreas separation!

Pancreatic duct reconstruction!

Pancreaticoenterostomy!

The difficulty of the surgery was indeed greater than everyone had thought.

At this moment, Chen Cang's four-dimensional image already had formed a vague structure based on the recent results and his own diagnosis, and he began to think about the surgical procedure and approach.

Then, Hubert spoke out his surgical plan.

And so, they began to discuss.

Definitely, only one person could use the pancreatic duct; the best approach was to perform a pancreaticoenterostomy on the other, but the exact condition of the intestinal adhesions was uncertain and would need to be observed after opening the abdomen.

Seven or eight people began to discuss fervently, while Chen Cang remained relatively silent.

He was also reflecting on how to ensure both little girls could maintain a healthy digestive tract for growth.

But after thinking for a long time, he still could not make a decision.

The condition of the duodenum was unclear; a judgment would have to be made after opening the abdomen!

After preparations were completed, everyone headed toward the operating room.

Ford followed in, and seeing this, Chen Cang nodded with a smile.

In contrast, Ford was somewhat flushed and awkwardly said, "About last time... sorry."

Chen Cang smiled, "No need to be polite, thank you for today."

Ford understood what Chen Cang meant and couldn't help but give a bitter smile.

After the preparations were complete, the surgery was ready to begin.

Watching the little girls, the anesthesiologist was also ready.

Oli and Judy had become two little celebrities in the hospital, having stayed there for a while, and everyone knew about these two little girls.

Chen Cang took the lead unhesitatingly and stood in the chief surgeon's position, with Hubert assisting him, and the other three also stood ready, prepared to start the surgery.

Due to the special positioning of the body, making the first incision was a problem, as they could not perform a thoracoabdominal incision like with typical patients.

After considering, Chen Cang decided to make the first incision in Judy's abdomen to clarify some of the abdominal cavity conditions.

At the moment, the abdominal wall was together, and Chen Cang could not choose to make an incision in the middle, which was close to the liver and had complex abdominal cavity conditions.

...

...

At this time, the live video was also being transmitted to a conference room in a hotel, and everyone watching the patient's current situation immediately fell silent.

Why make an incision there?

Someone quietly questioned.

Instantly, a man beside them said, "This is the safest spot, not near any adherent organs. Making an incision here won't cause unknown damage. If you were to cut into the little girl on the left, it could easily get too close to the liver, which is adherent, and that would be very troublesome."

Everyone around seemed to have an epiphany.

And after Chen Cang made the abdominal incision, he caused no damage.

Then, turning around, Chen Cang called out, "Laparoscope for me!"

An assistant who had been ready handed the laparoscope to Chen Cang, and everyone around began to focus on the monitor.

How much they could open up the incision in the abdomen needed to be analyzed based on the adhesion conditions of the abdomen.

After a thorough examination, Chen Cang breathed a sigh of relief.

Continue to incise!

A surgery like this needed a large opening.

In the following incision, Chen Cang carefully avoided major blood vessels and tried his best to expose the areas needing surgery.

However, he also had to consider the upcoming separation surgery.

Thinking of this, Chen Cang began to cut open the conjoined parts little by little.

These difficulties were not too severe!

However, the assistants on both sides were under a lot of pressure; they needed to properly stabilize the children's positions.

Conjoined twin separation surgery was different from being supine; the patients' positions were unstable, and once separated, they could become unsteady because they had lost counterbalance.

Chen Cang spent nearly forty minutes just on making the incisions.

At that moment, the conditions inside the patients' abdominal cavities were finally exposed.

And then, the real difficulty emerged.

Looking at the situation inside the abdominal cavity, everyone in the operating room felt an intense pressure between their eyebrows.

Chen Cang felt the same!

And the audience observing the surgery in the conference room couldn't help but gasp in shock!

The situation was more complex than they had imagined!

Everyone frowned in thought.

How should they begin?
