godfather of surgery

Chapter 1045 Cactus

As time went by, Yang Ping's wedding was getting closer. Huang Jiacai had arranged everything, and Huang Changxin, who had started a new business, had also prepared everything. He secretly competed with Huang Jiacai and was determined to create a sensation on that day.

When Huang Changxin proposed his own planning proposal, Huang Jiacai actually said that he was vulgar. This time Huang Changxin wants to prove himself to see who is vulgar and who understands romance.

Europeans and Americans like to make reservations in advance, so the international friends who were going to attend the wedding arranged their time early, and Huang Jiacai also arranged hotel rooms for friends from all over the world early.

The wedding planning team that Huang Jiacai selected for Yang Ping and Xiao Su is also the best in the country. After receiving the order, this team tried their best, not for any other reason, but because the client gave too much this time.

If they can complete this order successfully, this team probably won’t have to worry about income for the next ten years. This one order will really support them for ten years.

Xiao Su also started to take time to try on wedding dresses. As the most important moment in a girl’s life, she also hoped to show her best side at that moment.

Professor Su was also very concerned about his daughter's wedding. He would take time out from time to time to visit the manor hotel and sometimes offer his own opinions.

Huang Jiacai happened to be there when he came to inspect the hotel this time. He would report the progress of the wedding preparations to Professor Su regularly.

The two sat down in the hotel. When Huang Jiacai handed the guest list to Professor Su, Professor Su took a glance at it and was shocked. Behind the names on the list were descriptions of the identities of some of the guests. Some of them were world-class medical scholars, and many were Nobel Prize winners.

In order to confirm whether the people on the list were the medical masters he knew, he confirmed with Huang Jiacai one by one, and yes, they were the well-known medical masters.

The editors-in-chief of the world's three top journals were also present, and many of the richest people in Europe and the United States were also on the list.

Huang Jiacai explained: "We didn't actively invite these people. They all contacted us on their own initiative and asked to attend the wedding. Anyway, it would be more lively with more people, so I screened these people and then accepted some of their requests before sending out invitations."

Professor Su nodded. How come his son-in-law knew so many people? Or rather, how come so many people knew him? He didn’t expect that this young man had some status in the international arena.

Looking at the list of programs at the wedding, Professor Su is quite sensitive about this program. As a family of scholars, there is only one girl among the brothers of their generation. Someone once suggested to Professor Su that they hope to invite some popular stars and hosts to the wedding to help out and have a wedding performance comparable to the Spring Festival Gala.

Professor Su rejected this approach on the spot, saying it was too vulgar. The eldest son of the Su family also firmly disagreed with this approach, saying it was too high-profile and inconsistent with the Su family's usual low-key style. As a Beijing official, the eldest son of the Su family naturally could not accept this high-profile, vulgar and nouveau riche approach.

Professor Su meant to turn his daughter's wedding into a gathering of top medical colleagues in the country and invite colleagues in the medical field to join in the fun.

The theme of the wedding is in line with Professor Su's original intention, but the scale has obviously far exceeded his expectations, because many of these people are people he simply cannot invite.

All the familiar and famous names actually appeared at his daughter's wedding. Even the most low-key people value face, it's just that the way of expression is different. What's more, he only has such a precious daughter.

So now that Huang Jiacai has handed over the program, Professor Su must look at it carefully and must not invite some celebrities from the entertainment industry again.

Professor Su read line by line and became more and more confused. He almost dropped his glasses. The famous Professor Mannstein, the Nobel Prize winner, recognized as the most arrogant genius in the world, actually performed at the wedding - a solo song of "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau".

August, a master of spinal surgery, performed piano, Robert performed martial arts, August and Robert also performed crosstalk, and Li Ze, an expert in cardiac surgery, sang a song by Fei Yuqing solo...

Participants in the performance are all top doctors and medical scientists from all over the world. Usually, these people are the aloof, serious and upright professors and famous scholars at academic conferences, but now they are performing for everyone.

Professor Su shook the program in his hand and said, "Xiao Huang, you said the performers of these programs, will they perform in person?"

"Yes, they all performed in person and are practicing now. They have made full preparations for the wedding. Take Mannstein for example. I heard that they spent a lot of money to invite a Chinese singing team to Germany in order to sing well."

Professor Su smacked his lips. He had always been low-key and didn't care about his reputation, but at this moment he felt particularly proud.

There was also a mysterious program at the end of the show. This mysterious program did not reveal any content, and Professor Su was very confused.

Teacher Su asked, "What is this program?"

Huang Jiacai shook his head: "I can't talk about this program. This program was arranged by the European side. The European representative, Professor Mannstein, stayed in China for two weeks and had secret contact with me. We also signed a confidentiality agreement, so I absolutely cannot disclose it. But I can guarantee that it is a healthy and positive program, a program full of positive energy."

"You can't tell me either?" Professor Su was very curious.

Huang Jiacai smiled, shook his head, and said firmly: "I can't say it. We need to have a spirit of contract."

Professor Su did not care, but was thinking in his heart, what kind of gift is this? It is because the European representative, Professor Maninstein, came in person to discuss it. Professor Maninstein was so concerned about Yang Ping's wedding this time, with performances and preparing a mysterious gift.

But no matter how hard Professor Su thought, he couldn't figure out what this gift was. The more he thought about it, the more curious he became.

"I can't tell you, but can you give me a hint?"

Huang Jiacai still shook his head: "If I give you a hint, it would be equivalent to telling you directly, Professor Su."

In this case, Professor Su didn't want to ask about this matter anymore. He would know it at the wedding anyway. He just didn't know it now, and he felt itchy in his heart. People are curious.

After wandering around the manor-style hotel purchased by Ruixing Group for a long time, Professor Su went back to take care of his grandson.
-
Sisi's reexamination time has started again. Because of the recent changes in her condition, the reexamination frequency has become higher than before. Yang Ping tries to use MRI as much as possible for examinations that can be replaced by MRI. After all, CT still has a certain amount of ionizing radiation, and doing it too much will bring some negative effects to the body. MRI does not have ionizing radiation and has almost no side effects.

The results of the re-examination were very pessimistic. Compared with before, the range of metastasis had spread again, and the intracranial tumor had diffusely expanded and had invaded the brainstem area. However, it had not yet reached that unknown critical point, so there were no major symptoms for the time being.

However, Sisi now sometimes feels noticeably dizzy and sometimes has unexplained palpitations. These are actually symptoms caused by the tumor, but they are not obvious for the time being.

Magnetic resonance images of Sisi's multiple parts were displayed on the electronic screen. Everyone gathered around the screen with frowns on their faces.

Because everyone has already treated Sisi as a little sister, and they all like this smart girl, everyone is in a heavy mood now. Because even Yang Ping, who has the world's top surgical skills, now seems helpless. Surgery is not omnipotent. Surgery can only solve problems within its indications. Now Sisi's problem is beyond the scope of surgical indications.

Radiotherapy?

No, it has been proven before that radiotherapy is insensitive to this type of tumor, and using radiotherapy again would be tantamount to suicide.

Chemotherapy?

This is just a rehash of old stuff. When Yang Ping first got serious with Sisi, he had a deep memory of her: she looked pale and thin, her hair was sparse, there were even some white or yellow hair, and her appetite was extremely poor.

If Yang Ping had not carefully considered and decisively terminated radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and boldly used the ultrasound-based HIFU knife to treat Sisi, Sisi might not have survived to this day, let alone be in such good health.

If we use radiotherapy and chemotherapy again now and go back to the old way, once the immune status that has been rebuilt with great difficulty is destroyed, there will probably be no time to wait for new treatment.

But if these traditional treatments are abandoned, Sisi will have no other treatments, such as targeted therapy and cell therapy, which are currently ineffective against this type of tumor. The K factor that she has studied is something worth rejoicing about, but it works well against tumor cells in vitro, but it has no effect in vivo. It is even eliminated by the human immune system before it reaches the tumor cells.

Yang Ping is in a very difficult situation now, but he remains calm on the surface. The long-term training in the system space has allowed him to maintain enough composure to deal with any difficult cases and appear calm.

"Professor? I'm afraid this can't be operated on. This is a diffuse growth."

Song Zimo broke everyone's silence.

Yang Ping hummed, and this time he rarely said anything. If it were in the past, he would definitely say that it was not a big problem, or that he should be hospitalized for surgery first. But this time he just hummed.

Song Zimo already knew that there was no hope at all for the surgery. Even if there was a glimmer of hope, Yang Ping would not just say "hmm".

Due to diffuse growth, it is impossible to separate the tumor from normal tissue, just like water poured into soil, paint seeping into flour, and white sugar dissolving in brown sugar water. It is impossible to separate them mechanically.

If surgery is necessary, the normal tissue mixed with the tumor can only be removed, and the patient will die immediately. This is because the tumor invades the most important part of the brain, which controls a person's life.

In addition to the tumor in the brain, Sisi has developed some scattered metastatic points in the lungs, liver and abdominal cavity. Yang Ping made so many efforts, but still could not let Sisi escape this outcome. He couldn't help feeling very sad.

However, long-term professional training has taught him not to empathize. Once he empathizes, he will easily lose his rationality and become impatient.

Originally, we wanted to discuss Sisi's condition, but now there is not much value in discussing it. The condition is there: malignant, advanced, and spreading. The original weapon, the HIFU knife, is no longer useful. Traditional radiotherapy and chemotherapy are no longer meaningful and will only accelerate the deterioration of the disease. There is no need to discuss it.

After watching Sisi's video, Wang Changxin and his wife came to Yang Ping's office. They had returned to China a long time ago to prepare for Yang Ping's wedding. They had already adopted Sisi as their goddaughter, so they were particularly concerned about Sisi's condition.

"How is the child's condition?" Wang Changxin asked anxiously.

Yang Ping just said ambiguously: "It is still under analysis."

"Oh, Professor Yang, use the best method and the best medicine. Don't worry about the money. I will pay for her medical expenses no matter how much it is." Wang Changxin is a generous person, so he speaks directly.

"I know that some things cannot be solved by money. The condition is quite complicated now, and I need to think about it carefully." Yang Ping asked them not to worry.

Wang Changxin nodded: "Then I won't disturb you. Let's go back first. Tell me if there is any situation. I really take care of this child." After that, Wang Changxin bowed and left Yang Ping's office with his wife.

Yang Ping took a rest in the office for a while, and then came to Sisi's ward. Her cactus had grown very large. When he first saw it, it was only slightly bigger than a thumb, but now it is at least as big as two or three palms.

"Your pet is growing so fast, it's actually this big."

Yang Ping saw a cactus in the corner. The lighting in this ward was relatively good, and the cactus in the room could get a certain amount of sunlight every day.

“It has a very strong vitality.”

Sisi was sitting by the window reading a book. The door of the ward was open. When she saw Yang Ping come in, she immediately closed the book.

Children are now in the peak period of growth, so every time you see Sisi, she is much taller. No matter whether she inherited genes from her father or mother, Sisi will definitely be taller in the future.

Now the little girl with her ponytail looks very energetic. She has prepared for the worst-case scenario regarding her illness, so she appears very calm every time.

In the past, Yang Ping would only chat for a few words and explain her the condition of the follow-up examination. But this time, Yang Ping did not talk about the condition. He kept chatting with her and understanding her academic progress, without touching on the topic of the condition at all.

Sisi didn't ask either. She seemed to no longer care about her condition. She didn't look like a patient, let alone someone coming for a follow-up check-up.

As they chatted, Yang Ping and Sisi started talking about how to take care of desert plants such as cacti. As they talked, the two of them squatted beside the pot of cactus and talked about the real thing. Sisi explained the knowledge about cacti to Yang Ping.

It seems that the child has a good mentality and mental state, which is enough. Yang Ping decided not to talk about the illness anymore.

Just as she herself said before, every flower has its own flowering period. No matter how long the flowering period is, it is enough as long as it can bloom its own beauty.

I remember that this child once said that his only regret was that his parents didn’t have a second child.

Hey!
For some reason, Yang Ping, who had never been sympathetic, couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.

In fact, children are more sensible than adults can imagine, but adults just don’t know it and always think that children don’t understand anything.
