Chapter 128: Chapter 95: Ear Bitten Off, High-Difficulty Suturing

After a short while, a middle-aged man rushed into the emergency room.

“Director Liu, you’re here, please take a look at this patient immediately.”

Zhou Xianren quickly said when he saw him running over.

“What’s going on?”

Liu Daliang looked at the little girl in front of him, his brows furrowed instantly,

“The ear is torn off, this is very troublesome!”

“How does it look? Can you handle it?”

Zhou Xianren asked.

After speaking, Liu Daliang, the director of the ENT department, began to examine the wound. The little girl’s ear was almost completely bitten off from the base.

Moreover, the wound was extremely chaotic, with a few canine teeth marks making the entire ear canal part appear somewhat bloody.

He looked again at the small ear soaked in bloodstains in the tray, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t perform limb reattachment; he had encountered many such cases before.

But it’s important to know that there’s a huge difference in limb severance injuries!

Usually, limb severances are primarily clean cuts, such as knife wounds or factory machine accidents.

Such wounds are generally smooth, with minimal vascular damage, mainly testing the doctor’s skills in vascular and nerve suturing.

But some limb severances are incredibly challenging!

For instance, traffic accidents or machinery tears, these wounds are generally severe lacerations or crushing injuries, with irreversible damage to blood vessels, nerves, and muscles.

In such cases, even the world’s top experts in reattachment could be powerless.

And now, the little girl’s situation belongs to a laceration injury!

Although it’s a complete laceration, the wound is chaotic. While it’s possible to align it, whether it can recover and function is uncertain!

“Old Zhou, in this situation, I can only say I’ll do my utmost, but I can’t guarantee if it can be saved.”

After examining the situation, Liu Daliang raised his head and looked at him, speaking softly.

“How confident are you?”

“30 percent!”

Upon hearing this answer, Zhou Xianren’s heart sank.

percent?

What does this mean?

A 30 percent chance refers only to the surgery, and post-surgery recovery is even more crucial!

If the success rate of the surgery is that low, there’s little hope for a miraculous recovery afterward.

“Old Zhou, maybe we should consider transferring her.”

Liu Daliang gave up, not because he didn’t want to do it, but because he didn’t want to delay the little girl.

“From here to the provincial hospital, the ambulance would take at least four hours, and the girl has already been injured for an hour.”

Zhou Xianren, upon hearing this, shook his head grimly, hesitatingly.

“Even if they start surgery immediately upon arrival at the provincial hospital, do you think the success rate after the ear being detached for nearly six hours would be high?”

“This…”

Liu Daliang didn’t say more, as he had no argument against it.

Transferring now, delayed by five to six hours, even with the provincial hospital undertaking the surgery, the success rate wouldn’t exceed 50 percent.

Once human tissue leaves the body, deprived of blood supply and cellular support, it begins to necrotize continuously.

And it’s not just the severed limb, the wound is affected too!

“Old Zhou, I’ll go with your decision.”

Liu Daliang immediately said with a serious expression, ready to take the plunge.

In the hospital, the ENT department’s presence was relatively low, unlike the more life-saving departments like emergency, cardiovascular, and neurosurgery.

Thus, their status was naturally higher!

Zhou Xianren fell into thought, and suddenly his eyes lit up; he thought of someone.

Qin Feng!

But although Qin Feng was highly skilled, it seemed he hadn’t undertaken reattachment surgeries since coming to the hospital.

What should be done?

He glanced at the young girl on the bed, her face full of pain and tears streaming down, his heart softening in compassion.

No choice!

Zhou Xianren could only adopt a try-it-and-see attitude and call Qin Feng.

…

Upon receiving the call, Qin Feng rushed from the transplant center to the emergency door.

“Director Zhou!”

“Qin Feng, you’re here!”

Zhou Xianren’s eyes lit up upon hearing his voice, quickly saying.

“You just mentioned the ear being bitten off, what happened?”

Qin Feng asked.

“Come in and take a look first.”

Zhou Xianren didn’t elaborate, pulling him swiftly into the rescue room.

Upon entering, Qin Feng saw the young girl on the bed, with only a bloody hole left where her right ear should have been, and the severed ear placed beside her.

“How could this happen?”

Qin Feng was shocked, immediately moving to the girl’s side to examine her.

With the ear directly bitten off, improper suturing could affect the girl’s entire lifetime.

Meanwhile, outside, the police had arrived, negotiating and recording with the crying girl’s mother and the woman who was holding the dog.

When Qin Feng heard Zhao Yitian finish explaining the incident, he was filled with rage!

Someone dared to walk a dog unleashed, and it was a large dog!

No wonder he saw a woman at the door sitting with a dog, the leash merely held by four fingers.

If the dog exerted just a little force, it could break free, making it seem as if there was no leash at all!

Qin Feng wanted to remind her, but the urgency inside the rescue room left him with no time.

Now, seeing clearly, the culprit was that knee-high young German Shepherd outside!

German Shepherds, as large pet dogs, are very common.

Due to their high intelligence and friendliness, many people consider them when choosing large dogs as pets.

After all, they don’t casually run off with others like Golden Retrievers, and they have relatively strong obedience.

But no matter how obedient, they are privately owned pets, different from special occupation working dogs and police dogs.
