Resect the mitral valve!
Under the augmentation of super-vision, all details were laid bare to Qin Feng.
The retractor fully exposed the mitral valve. The cervical clamp held it, and part of the tissue was trimmed off with scissors for remodeling.
"Artificial valve."
This time, Qin Feng re-assessed the extent of the child's mitral valve defect before the operation and decided to use an artificial valve.
Due to the large gap, compared to direct suturing and valve replacement, he preferred the lowest risk option of the artificial valve.
If a valve surgery is needed again in the future, Qin Feng would continue to operate on the child.
This wasn't about making money but due to the high risk of forcefully repairing the mitral valve, which could lead to unforeseen complications during growth.
The chance of rescue would be very slim in that case!
While an artificial valve monitored frequently carries much lower risk,
and it doesn't impact normal life!
