2508 Making things difficult for everyone
“I’m sorry to trouble you,”
After a few seconds of silence, Zheng Ren and Su Yun said in unison.
It looked simple, but the Fishbone was stuck in the esophagus. If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely take it out.
However, Zheng Ren and Su Yun did not think so. Director Luo, who had called his family and friends for help, did not think so either. If it was simple, director Luo would not have called.
The fish bone was like a barbed arrow, embedded in the wall of the esophagus. If it was pulled out with brute force, it would be a tragedy.
There was a 1% chance of success, but there was a 99% chance that it would lead to a major emergency rescue, and the patient would die in the end.
On the way, Zheng Ren called Gao Shaojie and asked him to wait for a while before sending the patient to the operation. He had to see how it went.
“Boss, your temper will tire me to death.” Su Yun said without thinking.
Zheng Ren knew that he was silently criticizing his attitude of doing everything personally.
Other things were fine, but when it came to surgery, he definitely had to see it with his own eyes before he could be at ease.
Even though Gao Shaojie’s level had improved very quickly, he had almost reached the level of professor Rudolph Wagner.
Even Lin Yuan could start to operate independently, and even Gu Xiaoran could try to be an assistant on stage.
The other members of the medical team were growing, but Zheng Ren was still worried as if he had an obsessive-compulsive disorder. Su Yun looked down on his boss, and his words were full of disdain.
However, Zheng Ren did not refute Su Yun’s words. He silently walked towards the endoscope room.
When he arrived at the endoscope room, he changed his shoes and clothes before entering. There was already a doctor waiting at the door. “Boss Zheng, director Luo asked me to pick you up. Please come in.” The patient ate fish last night and came to our hospital for treatment this morning for four days. When I examined the patient’s stomach, I saw that there was a 5cm-long Fishbone 8cm away from the patient’s esophagus. There were three Fishbone on each side, and they were stuck in the wall of the esophagus. “
He didn’t beat around the bush and began to report the patient’s condition after a simple greeting.
Er, the patient’s condition was worse than he had imagined! Zheng Ren’s expression was grave.
“Director Luo tried, but when he pulled it out, the fish bones rushed up, causing the esophageal wall to rupture slightly. The Department Director didn’t dare to move it, so please help me take a look. ” The doctor continued.
“Yes, I’m going to take a look at the situation.” Zheng Ren strode in.
When they arrived at Department Director Luo’s endoscope room, Zheng Ren said,”Director Luo, I’m here.”
“Boss Zheng, please help me take a look. I can’t take it out.” Department Director Luo’s sterile cap was drenched in sweat, and he looked a little tired.
Anyone would be tired to be called from home in the early hours of the morning, especially when it was such a difficult and difficult patient. “You can’t take it out?” Zheng Ren laughed.
“Hmm, if I force myself to, I’m afraid that the esophageal and pancreatic mucous membrane will be torn all the way to the top.” He shook his head.”Why don’t we go down and go straight to the stomach?”
“This is also a way, but the stomach can’t expel it out.” Zheng Ren said.
The main component of fish bones was calcium carbonate. The gastric acid in gastric juice had a Ph of 0.9 – 1.5, so fish bones would only become soft in the stomach but would not be decomposed.
There were many components that made up fish bones. The phosphate in it could be dissolved in acid, and the fish bones that had these minerals removed would naturally become soft. However, the fish bones also contained a large amount of collagen, which was wrapped in many other macromolecules such as protein and polymer sugar. These macromolecules needed to be further broken down before they could be digested.
Although the pH of the stomach acid was very low, once it entered the small intestine, the pH would rise to about 7 to 8. Some enzymes that were effective for Fishbone protein, such as collagen and pancreatic enzymes, could only take effect under this alkaline condition, causing food to be further decomposed.
All in all, everyone present knew that a fish bone with six fish bones would not be digested even if it was pushed into the stomach.
If the Fishbone were to get stuck in the pylorus along with the stomach’s wriggling, causing obstruction or tear, they would have to undergo even more major surgical treatment.
Even gastrectomy and intestinal anastomosis were not a joke.
Department Director Luo was also forced to say it. He was just saying it casually.
Zheng Ren put on a pair of sterile gloves and took the gastroscopy equipment from Department Director Luo. He started to observe the position of the fish bone.
Just as the young doctor had described, the fish bones were larger and harder. Whether it was freshwater fish or sea fish, Zheng Ren did not think about it. He didn’t try to pull the fish bone out, but looked around.
There was slight damage to the mucous membrane of the esophageal wall. It was caused by the Fishbone, and part of it was caused by the side injury caused by Department Director Luo’s operation just now. It was obvious that director Luo was more careful and did not use brute force to pull the fish bone out.
What should he do?
Zheng Ren was also in a difficult position.
He couldn’t go up, couldn’t go down, and he couldn’t stay in this position.
“Ding dong~”
A crisp sound was heard, and the mission prompt sounded. Upon hearing the mission notification, Zheng Ren was not happy. Instead, he was a little distressed.
This matter was very difficult to solve. Why did the big pig trotter come to fill in the mess at this time?
[Emergency mission: difficult situation.
[Mission details: remove the fish bones from the esophagus.]
[Mission reward: 3000 skill points, 10000 experience points]
[Mission time: 3 hours]
Zheng Ren looked at the mission that appeared on the top right corner of his vision and felt a little helpless. Was the big pig trotter playing with him? It didn’t issue a mission for a big operation like little stone, but this Fishbone did.
Moreover, the quest rewards were not proportional to the difficulty.
Looking at the mission panel, Zheng Ren suddenly had an idea. According to his understanding of the big pig trotter, it should be a very simple task to take out the fish bones. Otherwise, he would not have received such a small reward.
What was the problem? There should be a blind spot in his thinking.
Countless thoughts appeared in Zheng Ren’s mind. He held the tube for the stomach in his hand and looked at the screen without moving. Then, he entered the system’s operating room and began to try all kinds of methods to remove the fish bones.
Department Director Luo waited for nearly ten seconds, and the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger. It wasn’t the Fishbone that made him uneasy. The biggest uneasiness and apprehension was boss Zheng’s motionless body.
A bad thought surfaced in his mind. Could it be that he had injured something when he was pulling out the fish bone?
After looking at the screen carefully, director Luo was sure that there was nothing wrong. He carefully recalled what he had done just now, but he still felt that it was nothing.
“Boss Zheng … You didn’t get hurt, did you?” Department Director Luo did not think about it, but asked tentatively.
“Your operation was very gentle, and it didn’t cause too much side damage. I’m thinking about how to take out the fish bones.” Zheng Ren smiled and comforted director Luo.
“Boss, you’re too focused on your thoughts. You’ve scared director Luo.” “Do you understand now?” Su Yun smiled.
“Hmm, there is a way that we can try.” Zheng Ren said.
Department Director Luo was overjoyed. It was good that there was a way, it was good that there was a way!
