Chapter 990: [990] Full of twists and turns
“It wasn’t , it was Doctor Song who followed Teacher Tao to a eting last ti, and may have discussed it with Teacher Tao on the way,” Xie Wanying said honestly.
Doctor Song, who doesn’t take care of bed 20, why did he intentionally discuss bed 20 with Tao Zhijie? The senior colleagues heard her and squinted at Doctor Song: Oh look at you, are you scheming to win her over privately?
Doctor Song remained serenely indifferent, not needing to respond.
If the seniors have the ability, they should try to do the sa.
So are even cursing under their breath.
After hearing Director Tang’s words, other departnt doctors beca busy trying to find out what was going on with bed 20, wondering why they had not heard any related news before.
“The patient was initially diagnosed with liver cirrhosis-induced ascites upon admission, and intended to be discharged after treatnt, which was of diocre effectiveness. At that ti, there was a sudden suspicion that it could be heart-related ascites. After the cardiologists ca to examine, prescribing so dication showed a bit of effectiveness,” seeing everyone’s interest, Director Tang continued to introduce this case for Tao Zhijie’s group.
“So it turns out to be heart-related ascites? Does it an we need to turn to thoracic surgery to solve the problem?”
“How about the results of the cardiac echocardiography?”
“At this mont, there’s a new developnt.” Director Tang, like narrating a detective story, continued with the progress of the case, “After performing inferior vena cava angiography, it turned out to be Budd-Chiari syndro.”
“Does that an liver cancer?”
“There’s no liver occupying lesion.”
“Inferior vena cava tumor?” Other departnt doctors suddenly understood.
“That’s quite rare.”
“If it’s an inferior vena cava tumor, being malignant indicates a very poor prognosis.”
“How big is this tumor?”
“Is it growing inside the lun or outside?”
“Has it extended to the heart?”
One doctor after another kept asking questions. It was clear that all doctors have a very high interest in rare cases.
Seeing everyone’s enthusiasm in the discussion, Director Tang felt that this case was indeed exceptional. The doctors in his departnt were very interested, not to ntion doctors from other hospitals.
If this case were to be operated on in a traditional operating room, it wouldn’t an much. But just as the applying doctor suggested, making it a laparoscopic surgery would be of significant importance. It could potentially be the first national case of laparoscopic removal of an inferior vena cava tumor, and broadcasting the operation live would be no problem making headline news.
After snapping out of it, the other doctors realized the ambition of Tao Zhijie’s group and Director Tang and were quite startled, one after another they stated:
“Director, we must think thrice before proceeding with this surgery.”
“No one has done it before, and our hospital’s doctors haven’t either—the risks are extrely high.”
“The inferior vena cava connects to the right atrium; should an accident occur, the patient could die on the operating table.”
“Therefore, if this surgery is to be conducted, we need to communicate with the doctors from the departnt of cardiac surgery,” Director Tang had considered this point and turned to discuss with Tao Zhijie.
“Firstly, we need to have a discussion within our departnt before I can talk to the people from the departnt of cardiac surgery,” Tao Zhijie conveyed his plan.
Receiving his words, Director Tang exchanged a knowing look with him, seemingly deciphering an additional layer of aning within his words. After so contemplation, Director Tang’s gaze quickly shifted to Xie Wanying, recalling the last ti she ntioned taking the dical records to Teacher Lu’s house while in his office.
Snap. Director Tang’s palm struck the desk as if to make a final decision: “Alright, it’s decided.”
The other doctors present realized that it wasn’t about debating the demonstration surgery anymore and stopped submitting any objections.
