Chapter 1029: [1029] It turns out to be a female doctor

"TEE is used in cardiovascular surgery, mainly to monitor the condition of the heart."

"Are there any situations in hepatobiliary surgery that are related to cardiology?"

A group of insiders discussing this did not fail to think of an answer; instead, they were hesitant to consider it because they all knew that the surgery was difficult, risky, and laparoscopic surgery too good to imagine.

The camera angle on the drape switched to the laparoscopic monitor, indicating that the exploratory laparoscopy was to be prioritized. Indeed, this was not cardiothoracic surgery but hepatobiliary surgery.

At this point, before the surgical knife entered the abdominal cavity, the most crucial role was that of the Mirror Assistant. Generally, it might be the Chief Surgeon of the surgical team who personally took the laparoscope to view the patient’s abdominal cavity. Many colleagues held this opinion, firmly believing: "Dr. Tao is operating."

Tao Zhijie? The folks from General Surgery Department Two were the first to laugh, as they were well-acquainted with the laparoscopic disciples personally groomed by Tan Kelin.

The live broadcast was filled with the unmistakable Tan Kelin style.

Tan Kelin was known for quickness, while Tao Zhijie was infamous for his slowness. Currently, on the screen, the insertion of the laparoscope, the transitions, and the movements were all incredibly fast.

Not long after, other Guoxie members also recognized the discrepancy: It simply couldn’t be Tao Zhijie.

"When did Dr. Tao’s movements become fast?" Eventually, an outside Boss who had interacted with Tao Zhijie voiced their skeptical truth.

If it wasn’t Tao Zhijie, who could be conducting the exploration? Would Tao Zhijie trust someone else to substitute for him with the laparoscope?

Those who doubted had fixed their belief on one point: they had not heard of any rising young stars in hepatobiliary surgery apart from Tao Zhijie. Only one possibility remained: someone older than Tao Zhijie from Guoxie’s hepatobiliary surgery, a Boss who was present to assist Tao Zhijie.

Seeing the speed and proficiency in the footage, it had to be the work of a highly experienced Boss.

"It could be that their Director of Hepatobiliary Surgery is in the operating room guiding Dr. Tao and offering instruction."

That’s what people from the other hospitals suggested, challenging the comprehension of Guoxie members. Sun Yubo and the others could hardly contain their mirth: since when did Student Xiao Xie equate to seasoned veterans like Director Tang or Director Xue?

It must be said that these people were initially unwilling to face the facts. The mainstream technique for laparoscopy has always belonged to middle-aged and young doctors, and suspicion should not have been directed toward the older generation.

"No need to explain to them," Liu Chengran said.

Rather than wasting breath, let them see for themselves. The teachers from General Surgery Department Two had great confidence in their students.

Perhaps the camera crew from afar had heard the confusion on-site, and the broadcast indeed made a sharp cut, focusing the camera on the hands of the operating surgeon.

It was time to force some people to face the truth. The Mirror Assistant’s hands, covered in sterile gloves, were clearly one size smaller than those of the average male surgeon.

"This surgeon’s hands seem a bit small. Could it be that the doctor is quite petite, with a bone structure similar to a female?" murmured someone unwilling to admit their mistake.

It must be said that the photographer was a bit mischievous, constantly focusing on the surgeon’s hands without showing the face, forcing people to guess by the hands.

"It’s a female doctor," declared a straightforward colleague, lifting the lid on the secret.

What’s there to guess? No need for baseless conjecture, much less forced rationale. As surgeons who understand human anatomy best, it’s clear to see the difference between male and female. It was obviously the hand of a female doctor, why the need to entertain the idea of a feminized male doctor.
