The pathological examination results of Liao Ting's lung nodules have come out. They are benign and inflammatory nodules. When the exact pathological diagnosis was obtained, Liao Ting's heart was completely relieved.
His whole body was full of energy and radiant, which was in sharp contrast to the negativity and sighing of the past few days. Now he has the energy and spirit of a leader. Liao Ting had been hiding the news that he had been hospitalized a few days ago.
Now I report the situation to my boss as soon as possible. When reporting, I don't forget to admit that the doctors in the hospital don't understand anything and make a nodule that has nothing to do very complicated.
When Mr. Liao was discharged from the hospital, he was already surrounded by people. He kept complaining to his subordinates about the hospital's physical examination, saying that the hospital made such a fuss over a nodule. It was just a nodule. It was normal for people of his age to have nodules.
Well, the hospital insists on performing a puncture, which is unnecessary and is purely over-medical treatment. After struggling for so long, the result is not an inflammatory nodule.
A simple inflammatory nodule was so complicated that it wasted several days of his time.
Finally, Mr. Liao invited several colleagues who love badminton to play together next weekend. He said that he had been in the hospital for the past few days and had no exercise. He must sweat well. All his colleagues said, "Just say it, Mr. Liao doesn't look sick."
People are healthier than young men.
One of them said that he hated playing badminton with Liao Ting the most. Everyone immediately focused their attention on this ignorant guy. As a result, the colleague continued his words calmly: "Liao Ting! If you weren't the leader, I wouldn't be willing to go. Every day
After playing with you for the first time, you acted like nothing was wrong and you were lively and energetic, but I couldn't move my legs for three days, which was even more tiring than playing with young professional athletes from the provincial team. I can't handle your physical strength."
Liao Ting didn't care at all if he was "confronting" this subordinate. Instead, he said cheerfully: "You have to go on the weekend! I think if you dare to run away, let's see how I deal with you."
Niu Zhixuan's problem of elevated CEA has not been solved for the time being. Yang Ping has read all his test results and thinks it is just caused by intussusception complicated by intestinal inflammatory reaction. This cause is very rare, but Niu Zhixuan is afraid, and he demands to have one done.
PET-CT, otherwise I will have trouble sleeping and eating in the days to come.
"It's completely unnecessary. This elevated CEA has nothing to do with tumors. It's caused by intestinal inflammation. After the inflammation is controlled, it will slowly return to normal. You can observe it first."
Yang Ping advised this old classmate that there was no need to use heavy weapons like PET-CT.
Niu Zhixuan doesn't think so. What if he does? Niu Zhixuan thinks that when he has no money, he doesn't dare to change jobs at the risk of sudden death. When he has money, he thinks people are more important than money. As long as money can solve the problem, he doesn't care.
thing.
"Then let's do a PET-CT and spend money to buy peace of mind." After Yang Ping understood Niu Zhixuan's thoughts, he also agreed to continue further examinations. Sometimes, he really spent money to buy peace of mind.
An elevated tumor marker only indicates a tumor, but it does not necessarily mean it is a tumor. Just like seeing a strong man with a tattoo indicates that this person may be a law-breaker. Many strong men with tattoos are law-abiding, and many are law-abiding.
He's not a tattooed brawny guy either.
Therefore, tumor markers are only a hint and cannot confirm the diagnosis. In the end, further examination is needed to confirm the diagnosis.
Director He worked very hard. He and his colleagues used all means to snatch several pigs and used them to practice thoracoscopic lung transplantation. This operation is very time-consuming, especially for a novice, but for every doctor who performs lung transplantation
For now, at least, novices are new to using thoracoscopy for lung transplantation.
Therefore, each of Director He's simulated surgeries takes about ten hours to complete, and sometimes it takes more than eight hours. The surgery is still very difficult, and the world's first case is not so easy to obtain.
Director He's basic skills in thoracoscopy are still very good, so he improves quickly with practice, and with his full dedication, the progress can be seen every day. After several days of training day and night, Director He thinks that he has become very proficient in surgical skills.
At least on pigs, the surgery can be completed successfully in 9-10 hours.
The robbery of pigs in the Department of Thoracic Surgery has also caused some anger. The targets of their robbery are usually young doctors, so these doctors dare not speak out, but they will report it to their department directors afterwards. Many department directors began to question He Xiangjun about what he should do.
thing.
Everyone is the director of the department, and they usually have a good relationship. It is impossible for them to really fall out over a few pigs. He Xiangjun admitted that he was wrong, and then claimed that the situation in his department was special and the lung transplant operation was scheduled to be performed, so his behavior was a bit inappropriate.
That's fine. I hope everyone will forgive me. I will definitely treat everyone to a drink when the time comes.
After saying this, the directors of each department would not pursue him anymore. At most, they would explain to the doctors below to appease him. He Xiangjun sent people to deliver fruits to each department and apologize, so that the doctors who were robbed could have a way out and save their face.
Two pigs a day, nearly seventeen or eight hours of high-intensity training, and the surgical experience accumulated in the past few days made Director He feel good about himself, and he felt that he should be able to perform this operation.
News came from the ICU that the patient who relied on ECMO to maintain life finally had a result. This patient has been judged to be brain dead. The function of the heart and lungs is completely dependent on the passive maintenance of the ECMO machine. It is meaningless to continue to use it like this.
The patient's wife endured her grief and finally plucked up the courage to make the painful decision: to remove the ECMO and let the patient leave this world naturally. In fact, the patient had already left this world, but the machine still kept his heart and lungs running. But when making this painful decision
When making the decision, all the relatives gathered around the patient's wife and scolded her for being selfish, heartless, and for abandoning her husband. But what could she do? The accumulated out-of-pocket expenses now amounted to almost one million yuan.
For an ordinary family like hers, the medical expenses are already a huge amount of money. Selling their only house will only last for a while. She and her children have to continue living, so she must face reality. This is a bottomless pit, a
A bottomless pit without hope.
At around one o'clock in the middle of the night, the doctor prepared to remove the ECMO. According to the patient's wishes during his lifetime, his cornea, heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys were all donated to different people. His relatives did not agree to donate organs, and they also scolded the patient's wife.
But the patient's wife withstood the pressure. This was her husband's wish during his lifetime, and she wanted to help him realize it.
At around one o'clock in the night, the patient's wife entered the ICU alone in an isolation gown and kissed her husband affectionately as a final farewell. Then the woman left the ICU alone and sat in the empty family waiting area. She would be alone for the rest of her life.
Go down.
Ou Lianfeng's lung replacement surgery also started as an emergency at this time. Organ transplant surgery can often be performed at any time, because it is impossible to determine when a suitable donor will appear, and the operation time is also subject to great uncertainty.
The operating room was still brightly lit late at night, and Director He hurriedly dialed Song Zimo's phone: "Dr. Song, Ou Lianfeng's lung transplant can begin. I have just been notified that I can go and get the lungs."
"I will inform the professor immediately and prepare the Da Vinci robot immediately. The Da Vinci robot will be used to perform this surgery." Song Zimo immediately ordered.
Director He was a little confused: "Da Vinci robot performs lung transplantation? I can't!"
''Neither can I!" Song Zimo said.
"What should we do?" Professor He couldn't figure it out.
