Chapter 576 Another first!

At this time, the new surgery in his mind was called "one rib for one knee" technique. It is also called autologous rib for knee cartilage repair surgery!

"I think the traumatic surface is so big, and it is obviously very difficult to use traditional artificial materials, almost unsatisfactory. So I think maybe I can try using autologous rib cartilage transplantation to repair the cartilage surface of knee joint lesions!"

"I think the tissue morphology of the cartilage is similar to that of the articular cartilage, and it is also clear cartilage. This allows us to fully remove knee cartilage lesions while repairing the degenerative and peeling cartilage surface through costal cartilage transplantation and reconstruction, so that the patient's knee function can be well improved after the operation!"

"And during this operation, we only need to take a small piece of rib cartilage (3-4 cm) and adapt the rib cartilage according to the size and shape of the patient's knee defect, and then implant it into the knee defect area, so as to achieve the repair effect closest to the "original" cartilage in terms of histology, morphology, biomechanics, etc.!"

"And I think that after the rib cartilage is transplanted into the cartilage defect, a reliable biological bonding interface may be formed with the bone bed!" Ruan Bin said in a leisurely manner.

After hearing this, Liu Junchi was a little skeptical. After all, he was not a professional orthopedic doctor. He didn't know if it was OK, but it sounded quite reliable!

"No one has ever tried this kind of repair method!" Zhou Chengfeng said in surprise. He didn't expect that Ruan Bin was not an orthopedic doctor, and could have such bold and innovative ideas. And judging from the other party's appearance, would he also have joint repair surgery?

To be honest, he didn't know if it was possible, but it seems that this innovative surgery is indeed better than using artificial materials before! Not to mention other things, at least they are both transparent cartilage, and their repulsion is definitely not as large as that of the material!

"Have you tried it?" Liu Junchi hesitated a little.

"right."

"Old Zhou, do you think it's feasible?" Liu Junchi looked at Zhou Chengfeng.

"Although I haven't tried it, I seem to be able to try it, at least it's better than my surgery plan! But... I've never tried it, and the risks are unknown!" Zhou Chengfeng said truthfully.

Zhou Chengfeng's words made Liu Junchi hesitate!

As a doctor, he also knows the unknown risks of surgery.

If it succeeds, it's easy to say, if it fails...

"Director Liu, let me tell you this. If you use traditional surgery, I think you are not as hopeless as mine! I think you can try it! I usually won't lie!" Ruan Bin said in a deep voice.

He can only say this, and he can't say that I'm cheating, don't worry?

"I understand, let me discuss with my nephew's family!" Liu Junchi thought for a while.

"Okay! Then I'll go and do it first. If you want to have surgery, tell me!"

"Okay, thank you, Ruan Bin."

...

Three days later, Liu Junchi's nephew still had surgery easily!

After the negotiations were completed, Ruan Bin also began to make careful preoperative preparations for a morning.

The key to the surgery is to design the rib cartilage anastomosis!

This will take some time.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

On time surgery.

Ruan Bin is the leading swordsman, and Zhou Chengfeng is personally an assistant.

After the operation, Zhou Chengfeng was a little nervous at this time. After all, this was a new method of exploration and attempt. If it succeeded, then he would be the witness, which would be a huge blessing for future patients.

If it fails...

To be honest, both patients and doctors will be desperate!

After the anesthesia was effective, Ruan Bin first performed an operation on the patient Xiao Wang’s ribs and removed a small piece of rib cartilage!

Then the stitching is done and the target is started to be transferred to the other party’s injured joint!

After incision of the lesion, Ruan Bin carefully removed the lesion...

Every knife is smooth and every knife is just right.

Such superb surgical skills made Zhou Chengfeng next to him a little surprised. He felt that the other party was like an orthopedic surgeon who had been for twenty years!

Why are you so stable?

Can geniuses ignore long-term practice?

After removing the lesions, Ruan Bin adapted the rib cartilage and then implanted it into the knee joint defect area!

The operation took 3 hours and was finally completed!

"The operation is completed, it depends on the situation after the operation! But now I think the operation is very successful!" Ruan Bin said.

Liu Junchi, who was watching, was also a little nervous when he heard this!

But he also knew that the result could only be judged after a while!

Seven days later!

Xiao Wang’s recovery is good, proving that Ruan Bin’s innovative surgical method is indeed feasible!

"Hahaha, Dr. Ruan, after this rib cartilage was transplanted into the cartilage defect, the clinical effect now seems to be able to re-form a reliable biological bonding interface with the bone bed. This discovery is a historic breakthrough! You have created the world's first autologous rib cartilage repair knee cartilage surgery!" Zhou Chengfeng came to find Ruan Bin this day and admired him!

"Just recover well! This procedure can be tried for some patients, and maybe it can be promoted on a large scale in the future!" Ruan Bin smiled faintly. In fact, the clinical information and experience in his mind told him that with the clinical application of 3D printing technology, personalized reconstruction may be used to damage the surface of the cartilage in the future. Such plasticity is not available in other cartilage reconstruction methods. In addition, due to the sufficient amount of rib cartilage, it can even meet the needs of multiple cartilage reconstruction and revision surgeries, which is of great value to young patients.

Of course, he won't say these words!

"That's right! Have a meal together tonight? Come to my department more often when you have time in the future to do more surgery like this?" Zhou Chengfeng was very enthusiastic at this time.

"Tonight? Uh, I'm not free."

"It's okay, next time, next time!"

...

The operation video was soon uploaded to the surgery website, which immediately attracted the viewing of a large number of orthopedic surgeons.

When they saw such a bold and innovative operation of autologous rib cartilage repairing knee cartilage defects, they were all amazed!

Obviously, they were also affected by this new idea surgery, which gave them great inspiration!

"My God, he is the First Affiliated Hospital of the Magic City, and he is Ruan Bin's main surgery again! I remember that he has not had any innovative surgery in half a year, and now he has made such a big noise."

"I'm working on cancer treatment before!"

"I am worthy of being a genius! I admire you!"

"He is my idol!"

"It's so awesome, it's unsolvable!"

Many orthopedic surgeons on the Internet are talking about it, and many people benefit a lot after seeing it!
