Doctor: It's reasonable to perform surgery on yourself.

"Let's put it together... She is the only mother we have."

The man sighed deeply, stood up as if he had made some important decision, and said, "I will pay four thousand, and you will pay the rest."

The second son and youngest daughter were stunned for a moment.

The woman's lips moved a few times, and finally closed again.

The man's throat was rolling and he didn't say a word.

The two were silent for a long time and ended the topic with a nod.

When Xu Qiu returned to the office after the operation, a signature sheet appeared on his desk.

"Agreed?" Xu Qiu looked at Shi Lian who knocked on the door and came in.

Shi Lian was not very interested and nodded dully, saying, "Teacher, the world is so miserable."

Chen Qiao, who was walking behind, said nothing.

What she saw in Xiehe was much more painful than what she saw in the clinic.

Although clinical medicine has a certain reputation, in terms of popularity and influence, it is not on the same level as Xiehe.

The last hope for domestic medicine lies in this small hospital in Kyoto.

Countless patients spent all their savings and accumulated high debts. In the end, they could only survive until they were diagnosed and could not afford treatment. They could only put the patients on a wooden frame with ropes tied at both ends and pull them around.

Sometimes it was a wailing patient, and sometimes it was a corpse.

Compared with these, Pang Honggu is actually lucky.

However, in the face of suffering, comparing it with deeper suffering is an ignorant and arrogant thing. Just because someone is suffering more than Pang Honggu's family, we cannot deny their misfortune.

"Moreover, there are very few family members who are willing to trust doctors." Chen Qiao said.

Most patients, if they encounter such repeated examinations, are likely to suspect that the doctor is taking kickbacks.

However, Pang Honggu's family just silently cooperated with the doctor's work.

This also makes the real culprit invisible.

Xu Qiu glanced at Chen Qiao and said calmly: "It's not entirely their own fault that family members don't trust doctors."

Chen Qiao immediately showed an attentive expression: "Teacher."

Xu Qiu said slowly: "Our medical treatment has just passed through the dark age of barbaric growth, and there is still a long way to go before doctors and patients can trust each other.

“For example, the purpose of our medical forum is to break down the unbreakable barriers between medicine and ordinary people as much as possible.

“Let more and more people understand medical common sense, which is an important foundation for building mutual trust.

"After all, it is impossible for two people with unequal status to have real trust.

“And the other thing is to eradicate the bugs in the medical system!

“Because there are quacks and doctors who are unscrupulous for profit, patients and their families are frightened.

“Once something like this happens, it can cause the social trust that has been built to crumble.

"So we set up a reporting platform again."

Hearing this, Shi Lian and Chen Qiao's eyes flashed with strange looks.

At this time, they had a deeper understanding of the medical forums and reporting platforms promoted by the government.

It turns out that this thing is not just a whim, not just to integrate medical resources...

Behind it is a major reform that affects the entire country and the entire industry.

This is laying the foundation for an incredible miracle!

…

A few days later, the results of the PET-CT came out.

In addition to teratomas in the sigmoid colon and other parts of the body, doctors from the Department of Nuclear Medicine also discovered an abnormal mass in the right lobe of the patient's thyroid gland.

It is a mixture of fatty tissue and calcification, resembling a cystic mass, and contains material similar to the white matter of nerve cells.

Xu Qiu could tell at a glance that this thing was a teratoma.

Moreover, what causes anti-NMDAR encephalitis in patients is most likely this teratoma growing under the thyroid gland!

There are also teratomas in the lower part of the digestive tract such as the sigmoid colon. However, these tumors are mainly composed of calcified tissue, hair, etc., a few have solid masses, and none of them contain active nerve tissue.

The only source is under the thyroid gland!

This made all the doctors sweat.

Good guy, luckily it was PET-CT...

If you switch to other examinations, such as plain CT scan, enhanced CT scan, or MRI, perhaps Xu Qiu and the director of the imaging department can find teratomas in the digestive tract system.

But tumors next to the thyroid gland will most likely be missed!

The result was that the patient's condition did not improve much after the surgery, and he even continued to experience a series of meningeal irritation symptoms.

Ordinary doctors can only look away and sigh.

Completely unaware that the real lesion was not completely removed...

However, relying on PET-CT, all evil will be unable to escape!

On the day of diagnosis, the clinic doctor started arranging the surgery intensively. After signing the contract, they began to complete preoperative examinations such as chest X-ray, neck CT, and electrocardiogram.

Generally, teratomas are relatively large, especially those in the retroperitoneum. They often adhere to the kidneys, abdominal aorta, inferior vena cava, pancreas, and spleen, making them difficult to peel off.

Therefore, conventional laparotomy is commonly used clinically.

Laparoscopy, which has been developed in recent years, targets some smaller tumors.

If it was the former's extensive adhesions, Pang Honggu might really be incurable, and her body wouldn't be able to withstand another major abdominal surgery.

However, fortunately, the patient’s tumor is relatively small and can be completely resolved by laparoscopy!

This surgery is not a major one, so intracranial teratomas can be classified as level four surgeries. If they are just small or medium-sized tumors in the abdominal cavity, they can just be left to Shi Lian and others.

In the end, Li Xue from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology took over the operation.

What she specializes in is gynecological laparoscopy, which can be said to be her professional counterpart.

As for the teratomas next to the thyroid gland, due to their deformation with blood vessels, separation will be much more difficult.

Therefore, Xu Qiu personally operated on teratomas under the thyroid gland.

The day after the diagnosis, the surgery was scheduled.

Before entering the operating room, Pang Honggu had a rare moment of clarity. She wiped her tears while looking at her three children in front of the hospital bed.

The eldest son muttered: "Mom, why are you crying? It's just an operation. Do you still want to see the old man?"

The atmosphere was originally sad, but when he heard this, the nurse next to him almost laughed out loud.

You are such a dear son.

The second son and the youngest daughter were no longer feeling heavy, and said with a smile: "Dad, he still has to wait for you for more than ten years. Mom, just relax."

Speaking of the old man, Pang Honggu showed a somewhat shy expression on her face.

"He can just go on his own, who needs him to wait?"

The younger daughter pretended to be surprised: "Is it true? If he doesn't have to wait, he will be reincarnated first, and you will have to be his granddaughter."

Pang Honggu patted the hospital bed: "How can this be done? He should just wait."

…

On the operating table.

"Old lady, guess how many seconds you can carry it?" the anesthesiologist came forward cheerfully and chatted enthusiastically with Pang Honggu.

Old people are different from young people.

Many young people wish that others would regard them as dead, and it is best not to say a word to them.

But many old people like to be a little noisy. Only when someone talks in their ears can they feel comfortable.

Sure enough, Pang Honggu's attention was quickly diverted.

She spoke truthfully: "When I was young, bandits would not even blink when they entered the village. You don't care about this medicine..."

By the time he said the second half of the sentence, the anesthesiologist had already started administering medicine.

Pang Honggu didn't finish her last sentence of "it doesn't work" and immediately lost consciousness.

The anesthesiologist looked lonely: "Two seconds..."

If nothing else, old lady, you can be ranked at the top of the list of fastest fainting people.
