Chapter 814: This Gretel can do something new every time
If you can use mental power to protect the brachial plexus, you can use mental power to protect the spinal cord and the nerves extending from the vertebral foramen.
The next day, Grete continued his efforts and performed another scoliosis correction surgery.
This time, Grete incised the skin and separated it layer by layer to expose the outside of the facet joints. Then, under the guidance of the spirit of the contract, he unfolded his mental power to cover the spinal cord and related nerves.
Get to work!
T has been completely scanned before, a virtual three-dimensional image was generated, and it was calculated in what direction and to what angle each vertebra needs to be "twisted" to straighten the spine.
Gretel gave an order, and translucent colored lights and shadows lit up around the experimental dog:
This is the [Silent Phantom] released by Ta Ling. Based on the horizontal plane of the seventh cervical vertebra of the experimental dog, the corrected image is released. Where to go after the first section is corrected, where to go to the second section, and where to go to the third section
…
At the same time, use bright lines to draw out thin horizontal and vertical cubes so that the surgeon can check the angles.
"Taling is really convenient..."
Gretel sighed comfortably. These planning and guidance tasks would have been the work of the Tianji surgical robot in his previous life:
Use the Tianji navigation system to set the screw channels for each vertebral body. After positioning the robot, tap and screw the pedicle screws into the pedicle needle entry point. Then, place titanium rods between the screws, tighten the nuts, and perform thoracic spine fusion.
.
The positioning of the human eye cannot be so precise, and the human hand cannot make holes in the vertebrae while exerting sufficient force and achieving precise and accurate angles. But with the assistance of the tower spirit, planning, and positioning, these are all possible.
It’s not a problem!
Cut off part of the protruding vertebral body, remove part of the soft tissue, and twist the vertebral body with the hands of a powerful magician. Use therapeutic techniques to guide the bone to grow and reset, and guide the growth and filling of the soft tissue inside.
Guide the surrounding muscles that have become deformed to grow and strengthen when they need to, so as not to stretch the spine too much. These tasks have been done very well in the past half a year. Now, we only need to consider protecting the nerves.
That’s it.
With the coverage of mental power, there is no such thing as injury to nerve roots, damage to the dura mater, injury to the spinal cord, leakage of cerebrospinal fluid... Under the coverage and protection of mental power, and under the advance protection of the hands of the mage, it does not exist
!
After the operation was completed, Grete looked at the regular spine in front of him with a normal physiological curvature, and sighed comfortably. He asked Taling to record the images, and after taking X-ray photos from all sides, the treatment technique healed the tissue layer by layer, and released the tranquility technique...
…
The dog opened its eyes, sniffed around, and jumped off the operating table with great energy.
Very good, no lameness.
"Touch SS and bring it back! Don't hurt it!"
After the operation is completed, we need to follow up after the operation to see if there is any postoperative bleeding. If there is treatment, the postoperative bleeding will not exist. We also need to check whether there is back pain, lower limb pain, incontinence, and other issues.
There are complications!
A good start is half the battle. Starting from the fact that this black and white dog looked like a border collie, Grete performed 20 operations in one go.
Among the 20 cases, 18 cases were completely healed, with their body length increasing by 3 to 4 cm compared with before surgery, and their Cobb angles returning from 35° to 40° to 4° uniformly. In the other two cases, one had back pain and one had hind leg pain.
The pain, in short, is within a tolerable range.
Gretel wrote the paper with confidence. He first submitted it to the teacher for reading, and then sent it to Mrs. Alva of the Charm Control Department and Archmage Edgar of the Necromancy Department, each with a copy.
Look, for this project, the animal experiment has been successful! Next, you can apply for clinical trials. Once the clinical trials are passed, you can consider surgery on the person on the other side!
How to notify the other party, how to communicate with the other party, whether to use patients from your own country, or whether the Count of Ostend across the street will look for cases and find ways to send them over, this... you can decide!
Mrs. Alva received the paper and immediately rushed over in a hurry. Not only did she rush over herself, she also brought Archmage Edgar from the necromancy department and Archmage Bennett from the medical branch:
"Did you really do it? Are you sure there is no problem? Is the success rate so high? Can you... do it again and show us?"
Archmage Edgar's cheeks were pale and thin, and his eyes were as red as burning coals. He did not ask any questions, but his eyes were also scorching and he stared at Gretel without turning around.
Obviously, for this great mage of the necromancy system, or in other words, for the magicians of the necromantic system, being able to watch a difficult operation would require even sharpening one's head to get into it!
Only Archmage Bennett shrank back and remained silent. He had a good relationship with Mrs. Alva, or in other words, with the Charm Control Department, so last time a magician from the Charm Control Department attacked the Necromancer Department.
Invite him here for treatment.
The problem is, you didn’t say you came to see Master Nordmark perform surgery! A layman just watches the excitement, while an expert watches the door. We healers watch other people perform surgeries. We must apply for an application and obtain consent in advance. We can’t just watch it casually!
What's more, as a half-supervisor, I came to see whether his operation method and success rate were as stated in the paper!
Grete smiled at him, not caring, and led them in. First, he showed them the preoperative images, postoperative images, and surgical procedures of 20 dogs, and then took them to see the dogs on the spot.
It doesn't matter if you want to do a spot check or if you want to check it from beginning to end, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have completed these surgeries in a down-to-earth manner, and the operation records are also carefully written. No matter which one, I can withstand the inspection, so I don't have to be afraid.
Mrs. Alva flipped through the records one by one. The dog's length, weight, preoperative images, postoperative images, blood loss, blood pressure, each record was consistent. Well, at least it didn't look like it was copied from this one.
That portion of...
She threw out a [Charming Animal], and then squatted in front of the cage, stroking the head of an experimental dog, mumbling, mumbling. As for what she exchanged with the dog...
Gretel chose to ignore it. Anyway, he was just a fake natural mage. He was useless at natural communication and so on.
Archmage Edgar was holding a surgical record, with a pre-operative image on the left and a post-operative image on the right. He looked at it in ecstasy. He muttered in his mouth and kept making gestures with his hands:
"This...this...should be like this...if we become skeleton soldiers...if we become zombies...if we become abominations..."
Grete passed by with an expressionless expression. He knew that the purpose of the Necromancer's research on surgery was probably to create undead creatures... The problem is that undead creatures do not grow naturally, and you cannot guide their skeletal and muscle growth!
Only Archmage Bennett carefully flipped through the two surgical records, asked a few questions that he was more confused about, and then stood quietly on the side, as if avoiding suspicion.
When they met two years ago, he was at level 10 and Gretel at level 6; now he is still at level 10 and Grete is at level 8. In two years, God knows whether he can break through to level 11. Maybe Grete will already be at level 10.
Level!
This kind of person is determined to build a good relationship and must not be offended! I mean, do you really want to check his thesis information?
Instead, Grete smiled at him and led him outside and into the animal breeding room outside the mage tower. There were 10 dog cages lined up in a row, and in each cage was a big dog wandering around.
There is no hair on the glazing board, and you can see the deformity of the spine at a glance
"Just pick one? Whichever one you pick, I will use it for the experiment!"
Hey, since the development of rabies vaccines, the number of stray dogs in Nevis seems to have been greatly reduced. At least, stray dogs that are large enough to kill children one-on-one are no longer seen casually walking on the road.
Already.
Putting it this way, I feel that his hospital has made a great contribution to the safety of Nevis citizens.
Under the watchful eyes of the three archmages, Grete remained steady and performed another scoliosis correction surgery. Mrs. Alva watched the dog jump off the operating table and fly out with its tail between its legs, not paralyzed at all.
Signs, sighing longly:
"At least animal experiments are really no problem. If it can be successful on patients, we can talk to the count and ask him to send his son over for treatment."
She snapped her fingers, and some magic was activated, and the dog stumbled back and plunged into her arms. Mrs. Alva stroked the dog's spine, then touched the four legs one by one, raised her head and said
:
"By the way, Mage Nordmark, can patients who have received treatment still take the knight route?"
"I don't know about this, and I haven't studied it." Grete spread his hands:
"However, even after surgical treatment, the bone and muscle strength of patients who have been deformed will be lower than that of normal people, and even internal organs will be compressed for a long time. Whether high-intensity exercise can be performed requires an accumulation of enough cases before we can draw a conclusion."
"Then" can you continue your research?
Mrs. Alva hesitated to speak. Grete had already smiled:
"Originally, this technology can only benefit a specific person, which is very wasteful. Now that it has been invented, I want to think about how to make it serve more people."
A week later, Bishop Salem, the Bishop of War who had interacted with Gretel in the DC defibrillation project, once again walked into the archbishop's office with the newly published paper in hand.
"According to previous research, scoliosis exists on a large scale among soldiers. Especially among soldiers who use one-handed weapons, the prevalence of scoliosis in the coronal plane reaches 23.85%, and the prevalence of abnormal curvature in the sagittal plane of the spine,
As high as 35.7%..."
"Relatively speaking, the prevalence of scoliosis among magicians of the same age is less than 10%..."
"As age increases, the scoliosis of warriors also increases, but the scoliosis of knights is relatively low. Therefore, it is speculated that early intervention and treatment can make warriors more likely to progress.
…”
The Archbishop sighed and rubbed his forehead.
"This Nordmark mage always comes up with new tricks every time..."

The above data on scoliosis in warriors comes from research on the spinal conditions of athletes such as table tennis, rhythmic gymnastics, volleyball, rugby, and weightlifting...
