  Chapter 347 Selling Your Own Surgery

  Professor Wu thought for a while:

   "Sorry, if you want to introduce hepatobiliary surgery or digestive surgery doctors, I know a lot, but hand surgery is too unpopular, and I don't remember anyone I know."

  Cleft lip and palate surgery society, hand surgery society, etc., although they are also second-level medical societies, the level is not low and the standard is quite high, but it can't change the fact that they are unpopular majors.

   There are more than 20,000 member doctors of the International Society of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery. However, there are only more than 2,000 members of the Cleft Lip and Palate Surgery Society in the world. This is the gap.

  Hand surgery is better than cleft lip and palate surgery, but it was not much better in 1985. Currently there are only more than 3,000 members.

  A completely unpopular major. Because it is unpopular, the specialty is too technical, and there are too few human body parts involved, and there is not much need to cooperate with other specialties, so there is little communication between various disciplines.

   Chen Qi heard that Professor Wu had no connections, and now he started to worry again. Could it be that he was allowed to come to the door by himself and recommend himself?

  Professor Wu chuckled:

   "It's useless to ask me, but don't forget that the president of your own ICPF society, or other directors have connections in this regard. You are really a Bodhisattva worshiping the wrong temple."

  When Chen Qi heard this, he slapped his thigh excitedly: "That's right, why did I forget about them?"

  Professor Wu nodded: "I don't think you have placed yourself in the right position. It seems that your mind is not on the ICPF Society."

  Chen Qi thought: You guessed it right, my mind is on the IHPBA International Society for Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery~~~

   Asked for a leave of absence from the head of the delegation, and Chen Qi ran to the room of Professor Dewey, the president of the ICPF Society.

  At the same time, the president of FSSH International Society for Surgery of the Hand, Professor Stevenson from the United States, and a group of directors of the society are worrying.

  Stevenson: "Hey guys, the day after tomorrow it will be our turn to present the academic achievements of hand surgery in the past two years. Tell me, what new surgical methods in our hand surgery in the past two years are creative and revolutionary?"

   Several vice presidents and directors in the room looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

  The scope of treatment of hand surgery is actually very limited. Anyway, it is just two hands, including hand trauma, infection, tumor, congenital deformity and so on.

  Because there are few diseases that can be treated, and there are not many topics that can be studied, most hospitals around the world often do not separate hand surgery and general surgery.

  It is only in developed countries or large hospitals in developing countries that there are hand surgery specialties, and some are also called "hand and foot surgery", which includes feet.

  This brings about a problem. Breakthrough technological innovations in hand surgery are very difficult to appear, and limb transplantation is considered to be the most technologically advanced.

  Professor Sherwood said: "I wrote a paper last year on the diagnosis and treatment of malignant melanoma under the nail. Do you think it can be used?"

  Professor Aiwen on the side laughed: "Melanoma, we can't do skin surgery or tumor surgery, they are the ones who specialize in this."

   Several people in the room nodded one after another, and the hand surgery department just "cut" for malignant tumors, that is, amputation.

  This simple and crude treatment is often laughed at by other doctors.

  If it is used as a keynote speech at the World Society of Surgery, it will not be laughed out of the mouth by other colleagues.

   "Then what to do?"

   "Think again, everyone..."

   While the professors of hand surgery were silent, the intercom phone in the room rang.

  Professor Stevenson picked up the phone, and he heard the voice of his old friend, the president of the ICPF Society, and his colleague at the Mayo Clinic, Professor Dewey, from the microphone.

"Stevenson, I have something very unbelievable to tell you. One of our ICPF directors, Dr. Chen Qi from Huaguo, has a paper on your hand surgery, and I want you to read it. "

  Professor Stevenson was a little stunned:

   "Hey you old boy, do you want to ask me out for a drink? Don't be funny, we are in a meeting now, your ICPF already has a speech topic, we FSSH don't want to lose face, so we need to find the best paper."

   "No, no, no, Stevenson, listen to me, if you read Chen's paper, I believe you will know that you have the topic of this year's speech. This is definitely a revolutionary new technology."

   Hearing what Dewey said seriously, Stevenson was also a little confused:

   "You mean, the doctor who performed your plastic surgery actually invented a new surgical technique for hand surgery, or a revolutionary surgical technique? How is this possible? Aren't you just talking about it? When will you be able to do it?"

"Haha, Stevenson, you are wrong this time, as long as you get this paper, you will know how wrong you are, there is no way, our ICPF surgeons are too good, even your hand surgery It can also be taken easily."

   "Okay, stop joking. What kind of revolutionary surgery did the Huaguo doctor you mentioned perform? Otherwise, I don't have time to pay attention to your ICPF bullshit."

   "OK, I'll let Dr. Chen tell you personally."

  The microphone was obviously picked up by another person at this time, and a young voice came out after a while:

   "Hello, Professor Stevenson, I'm Chen Qi from Huaguo. I just completed a replantation operation in China. I believe you will be interested in this operation."

  Stevenson blinked, a little puzzled.

   "Hi Chen, I don't seem to hear clearly, what kind of foster care surgery are you doing?"

"Sorry, professor, this is a new term. Let me explain it this way. I had a patient whose palm was severed due to trauma, but at that time his arm was seriously injured and could not be replanted immediately, so I fostered this severed palm in the legs.

After 2 months, the arm has almost recovered, and I cut off the broken palm from the leg and transplanted it to the arm. This is my new invention of "Several Palm Allograft Foster Replantation Surgery". I have checked the literature and there is no such thing in the world. Surgery precedent, I think I should be the first case, right? "

   "what?"

  Stevenson couldn't believe his ears, the words he shouted were all broken, which also attracted the attention of everyone in the room, and they all looked over.

   Stevenson changed the receiver to another ear, then looked at his hands and legs and asked:

   "Dr. Chen, you mean, you connected the broken palm to your leg? Then put it back on your arm after 2 months?"

   "Yes, Mr. Professor."

   "Fuck, how did you do it? The operation was successful?"

   "It was successful. Now the patient is recovering. Without accident, he will be able to move in 2 weeks."

  Chen Qi answered simply, but he couldn't handle Stevenson anymore. He held the words for a long time without speaking, and his mind was a little confused
