“Alright!” Zheng Ren replied.
This was a very interesting case, so Zheng Ren did not think too much about it and agreed immediately.
“You can take the scans. This patient should be a surgery patient.” Department Director Luo took the scan, put it in a film bag, and handed it to Zheng Ren.””Boss Zheng, thank you for your hard work.”
“You’re welcome, director Luo. ” “I’ll contact the patient and make the best use of the time to decide on the surgery,”Zheng Ren said with a smile.
Now that everything was over, director Luo stood up and patted Zheng Ren on the shoulder.””Don’t forget to call me when the surgery starts. “
“Alright!” “Okay!” Zheng Ren agreed.
“Go, go do your work.” Department Director Luo sent Zheng Ren and Su Yun out and gave them a few more instructions.
After they left the gastrointestinal department, Su Yun asked,””What do you think it is, boss?”
“I can’t be sure, but I’ve seen some cases where toothpicks penetrated the duodenum and stabbed the liver.” Zheng Ren said,”it could be a toothpick, or it could also be … No, judging from the density, it shouldn’t be something made of iron.”
“I’ve seen people who ate five pounds of nails in New England’s case reports. If you swallow so many nails, one of them might even Pierce your liver. ” Su Yun laughed as she spouted nonsense.
In fact, he also knew that it was impossible for them to be iron nails. He could not tell from a CT scan, but after reconstruction, he could see that the density of the patient’s liver abscess was slightly smaller.
“Take the patient in and ask if we can do a live broadcast.” Zheng Ren picked up his phone, clicked on Department Director Luo’s WeChat, and started to call the patient.
Su Yun felt a little helpless when she saw how eager Zheng Ren was.
This morning, Lin Ge had just told him about the dispute between liver cancer patients. Why didn’t he learn his lesson?
Usually, doctors would be a little hesitant at this time. They had to be very careful when they took in patients for fear of making any mistakes.
However, when she saw how confident her boss was, Su Yun really admired Zheng Ren’s confidence.
“I hope nothing happens to this fellow for the rest of his life,” Su Yun nagged in her heart.”This fellow’s luck is indeed good if he performs surgery well.” A patient who had a dispute was actually solved without knowing it.
In any case, Su Yun had been studying in medical school for ten years, and she had never heard of such a thing.
After contacting the patient, Zheng Ren immediately rushed back to the Department of interventional services.
“Chang Yue, take in a patient with a liver abscess later. We suspect that it’s a foreign body.” Zheng Ren informed Chang Yue as soon as he entered the house.
“An abscess? A foreign object?” Chang Yue said,”external injuries should be taken to the liver and gallbladder. Why are you taking us here? what’s the matter?”
“It’s not an external injury. It appeared out of nowhere. ” Zheng Ren said.
“Are you okay? do you have a fever? Why are you talking nonsense?” Chang Yue looked at Zheng Ren in disdain and said,””There’s no external injury. Tell me, how did the foreign object enter the liver?”
“Doctor Chang, the Affiliated Hospital of the medical University performed an emergency surgery two years ago, and the situation is similar to what boss Zheng said.” Liu Zewei said,”the patient was admitted to the hospital for acute peritoneum syndrome. They checked the enhanced CT scan of the liver and saw a foreign body. The people from the hepatobiliary and pancreatic Department were immediately dumbfounded. They began to consult the whole hospital.”
“Old Liu, come and take a look at the x – ray.” Seeing that Liu Zewei had encountered this before, Zheng Ren was happy and directly inserted the film into the film reader.
Liu Zewei touched his bald head and walked over. After looking at the film, he smiled and said,”Boss Zheng, that’s about it. The previous patient was older, and the toothpick was connected between the duodenum and the liver. His intestines were ruptured, and so were his liver. It was an emergency surgery. “
“There’s really a case where the toothpick pierced the liver?” Su Yun was also a little surprised.
“If old Liu has seen it before, then this matter is inevitable.” Zheng Ren laughed.”There was a similar article in the 2012″ United Kingdom Medical Journal.”I thought it looked familiar, but when I read it, the report didn’t say where it came from.”
Liu Zewei was stunned.
Boss Zheng was so good at this that he could find similar reports from the vast medical case library by simply giving a medical case?
His memory was a little too good.
“From the report of the case in 2012 until now, there have been 17 cases reported in journals with an impact factor of more than 10.” “I didn’t expect to actually meet one,” Zheng Ren said.
As Zheng Ren spoke, he began to tap on the film reader a little excitedly.
The thumping sounds were like his heartbeat.
“Boss, be careful. Don’t be too smug.” Su Yun reminded him,”caution is the parent of safety.”
“I know. The surgery is not difficult at all. The patient is only forty – one years old. There shouldn’t be any problems with his body.” Zheng Ren had obviously already considered this point and immediately said.
“I’ll contact little Hu?”
“Alright, let her know. Then, when the patient comes, talk to the patient. If they agree to the live broadcast of the surgery, then find the legal department of Xing Lin garden to sign the contract.” “Is the earliest he can receive the surgery tomorrow?” Zheng Ren asked.
“…” Su Yun was speechless. She looked at Zheng Ren as if he was an idiot and said,””If you’re really anxious about a liver abscess, you can treat it as an emergency surgery.”
“Er …” Zheng Ren hesitated for a moment, then smiled.”Yes, this is an emergency case. I subconsciously thought that the patient who Department Director Luo treated was a slow patient. “
Su Yun was speechless after hearing Zheng Ren’s explanation.
However, he was just as curious. It was just that he was subconsciously cautious when it came to unfamiliar medical cases and patients he had not seen yet.
Soon, a middle – aged man timidly walked into the corridor of the Department of interventional services. He found the doctor’s office, knocked on the door, and asked,”Is Dr. Zheng here?”
“I am.” Zheng Ren saw that he was a healthy person and asked,””You are …”
“I’m Li Liang’s younger brother. We went to see director Luo this morning,” the doctor said. The man said in a low voice.
“Where’s your brother?” Zheng Ren asked.
“I’m at the hotel, and I can’t get up. He has a fever every day at this time. When I came out, my temperature was 41 degrees. “
“Call 120 for emergency treatment.” “The patient’s condition is very urgent,” Zheng Ren said.”She needs an emergency operation.”
“Doctor, is it really a foreign object?” The man asked.
“Well, I’m thinking that it’s better to use wooden or bamboo products like toothpicks to stab the liver.” Zheng Ren said.
“Uh … That’s impossible.”
“Nothing is impossible.” “Hurry up and get your brother to the hospital,” Zheng Ren said.”Is he alone in the hotel?”
The man nodded.
“Aren’t you afraid of something happening?” “Where’s your sister – in – Law?”Zheng Ren asked.
“We’ve been divorced for a few years. Um … Doctor, how much does the surgery cost?” The man was a little embarrassed and asked,””We prepared 20000 RMB. We spent more than 1000 RMB while we were waiting for the doctor.”
“We don’t have to think about money for the time being. It’s more important to get the patient over first.” Zheng Ren replied,”they’re all muddled from the fever. No one is taking care of them at the hotel.”
“Chang Yue, let him stay in the hospital for half a day when he’s here. Explain the expenses.”
