However, less than a minute later, Gao Shaojie knew he was wrong again.
The channel between the hepatic vein and the portal vein was established. The surgery was not over yet. The surgeon placed another 8mm retrievable stent.
He stood quietly in front of the screen and watched as the retrievable stent move slowly by the surgeon with full concentration.
Gao Shaojie did not understand why he had to use such a stent.
There were many uncontrollable factors when he had to go through the liver during the retrieving process. For example, bleeding! For example, when he takes the retrievable stent away, the membrane stent being taken off course.
Once bleeding happens or the position of the membrane stent being deviated, it would result in the failure of the whole TIPS surgery. Moreover, the patient would suffer more serious injuries and even face death.
