In the past, endoscopy was only a tool used by some departments in the hospital to examine patients. It was a minor subject that many doctors, especially surgeons, did not bother to do because they felt that only surgery could better reflect the value of a doctor.

However, with the development of endoscopic technology, it is no longer just an examination tool, but has gradually become a treatment method, which can help patients easily treat early-stage cancer and other diseases through minimally invasive surgery, with less trauma and faster recovery.

Until now, the 50-year-old Gastrointestinal Endoscopy World Cup has become the most authoritative event in the global surgical community.

Cutting-edge technologies are demonstrated here, innovative breakthroughs are born here, and cutting-edge equipment is unveiled here.

This is the stage for surgeons, and it is also the stage for endoscope manufacturers.

However, for endoscope manufacturers, there used to be only one contestant.

Now, there is one more person.

The Endoscopy World Cup competition will be held in the operating rooms of selected hospitals and will be broadcast simultaneously online and offline. Colleagues from all over the world can watch and interact online in real time.

At 8:30 a.m. that day, contestants and referees arrived at Huashan Hospital.

At 9 o'clock sharp, the Endoscopy World Cup competition started on time.

Doctors from China, Eagle Country, Sakura Country, Solarman, Maple Leaf Country and other countries will perform 13 surgeries in 5 operating rooms.

The judges will score based on each person's performance, and the two players with the highest scores will compete again the next day to determine the final champion.

As the players entered the operating room one by one, more than 20 referees also came to the conference room nearby.

In the large conference room, there are five large screens, which play the surgical footage of each player.

On the one hand, the live broadcast of surgery must capture the images in the endoscopic field of view, and at the same time, it must also broadcast the actions of the doctor's hands.

All footage will be simultaneously broadcast to the conference venue and shared with on-site medical representatives.

He Sheng was the fourth contestant to take the stage.

He chose endoscopic submucosal tunnel tumor resection (STER), an endoscopic surgery derived from POEM.

When everything was ready, he looked at the patient on the operating table, his heart as calm as water, without any disturbance.

Anesthesia, antibiotic infusion, and carbon dioxide insufflation.

Endoscopy finds tumors at the gastroesophageal junction and accurately locates them.

Create a submucosal tunnel to fully expose the tumor.

Complete tumor removal.

The tunnel entrance is sutured and the incision is sutured with titanium clips.

Done!

He even spent 5 seconds to confirm that the esophageal wound was in a straight line and the suture spacing was consistent.

The operation was completed in one go, without a trace of fireworks, without a drop of blood, and took only 12 minutes.

The venue suddenly burst into applause.

Fifteen minutes into the operation, the chairman of the conference announced in shock.

"Let us congratulate Dr. He Shengcai in operating room 4. He successfully completed the operation. The whole process can only be described as 'incredible'."

After another 5 minutes, the patient regained consciousness, opened his confused eyes, and nodded.

The entire venue burst into cheers instantly.

The chairman of the conference suddenly shouted loudly: "Photographer, quick, pat the back of Dr. He's surgical gown. I want to see if there are any sweat stains. As a contestant participating in the competition for the first time, I don't believe he is not nervous at all."

The audience burst into laughter, and someone shouted: "Schroeder, he is Zhou's student. He must have inherited the characteristic of not being nervous about the game. You must have made a mistake again this time."

The photographer in the operating room was obedient and pointed the camera at He Shengcai's back, and even got closer to give a close-up.

I saw that his surgical gown was dry and not a trace of sweat stains.

When the picture came back, everyone burst out laughing, laughing at Schroeder's mistake again. The venue was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Schroeder also shook his head in disappointment: "It's unbelievable."

However, as other operations are completed one after another.

He immediately became excited again and said excitedly: "Everyone, I declare that Dr. He's surgery is the winner of this morning's competition."

"The morning champion and the afternoon champion will compete tomorrow."

"Let us look forward to his performance. I believe he will not disappoint everyone."

"I saw it very accurately. Like Zhou, he is a natural competitor. The more critical the moment, the more stable his performance will be."

In this way, He Shengcai entered the finals without any suspense.
Chapter completed!
