Chapter 1011 They say it doesn't matter, Dr. Duncan says it doesn't matter!(1/2)
Medical Center.
The rooftop rooftop.
"What are we waiting for here?"
A trainee doctor asked.
"A 10-year-old girl was sent to the Presbyterian Hospital who had abdominal leiomyosarcoma and was inoperable."
The little man who led the team stood in front, looked away from the distance, explained, and then asked: "Louis, tell me about your understanding of abdominal leiomyosarcoma!"
"yes."
The intern Louis who opened his mouth was startled and quickly said: "Leiomusarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal tissue tumor that originates from the leiomuscular muscle of the intestinal wall, the leiomuscular vascular smooth muscle of the intestinal wall or the mucosal muscle of the intestinal wall..."
"This type of tumor is often found in middle-aged and elderly groups, and young people also have it, but it is really rare for children aged 10."
Another intern doctor answered: "And it's not possible to perform surgery, why are you sending it to us?"
"They don't say that surgery is inevitable."
Another intern doctor interrupted: "Dr. Duncan has seen it, but he will only have to say it."
"Here you come!"
The small man interrupted their conversation.
Everyone looked at the medical helicopter flying in.
The little man took his intern doctor and sent the little girl to the ward.
Adam nodded at the small man as he walked in.
"Torrey has abdominal leiomyosarcoma, and the tumor surrounds her abdominal artery, splenic artery and her left gastric artery."
The little guy began to introduce the condition: "This type of tumor is difficult to remove."
“It’s hard, but not impossible.”
Among the family members around the little girl's bed, grandma spoke first, looking forward to Adam: "Is it right? Doctor Duncan?"
“We will do everything we can.”
Adam did not take on a big bag, and said cautiously.
Children's surgery has always been very troublesome.
If you are not careful, it will cause a strong emotional reaction from parents.
"If you are not sure, be sure to speak up."
The little girl's uncle looked at Adam's face and frowned and said, "We can fly to San Francisco immediately. Dr. Stu is an expert in this area..."
"Okay, I'm not sure."
Seeing this, Adam combined the medical records and handed them to the little man: "Arrang her to transfer to the hospital."
After saying that, he was about to leave.
Such parents do not want to waste time in such cases.
He is not a god.
emmm.
At least not yet.
When other famous doctors say that there is no way to perform the surgery, even if he has a solution, he is absolutely unsure!
Confirm?
Even any major surgeon will not dare to accept such confidence as parents when facing any minor operation.
"What is your attitude?!"
The little girl's uncle exploded.
"Sir, please calm down."
Adam frowned and said, “I’m pretty sure I can’t meet the requirements you want.
So according to your requirements, I will tell you the results in advance and not waste your time.
Give Tori more time to treat as you think.
Is there any problem?"
"Luke, shut up!"
The little girl Tory's grandmother shouted: "Apologize to Dr. Duncan!"
"mom!"
Luke doesn't want to.
"Apologize!!"
Tori's grandmother strengthened her tone.
"Sorry, Dr. Duncan."
Luke apologized reluctantly.
"Doctor Duncan, Luke is just an impatient person."
Tori's grandmother smiled and said, "He was just too worried about Tori. We have gone to so many hospitals and met so many doctors.
We know the rules.
No one is 100% sure!
Not to mention the condition of Torrey...We just hope you can take a good look at Torrey and give you a surgical plan."
Speaking of this, she picked up a box and said with a flattering look on her face: "Do you want the candy? I made it myself."
“…”
Adam was speechless.
This is both soft and hard.
Such children and such families are really too difficult to deal with.
“Melendez, take Tori to do abdominal strengthening t.”
Adam glanced at the little girl who looked at her apologetically, shook his head in his heart, and spoke to the little one.
Such a parent is not the first, nor will it be the last one.
As long as he was willing to cooperate, Adam did not want to keep them out.
After all, he might be the last hope of this little girl.
Enhanced T-room.
"Okay, now insert the catheter into the abdominal artery, inject fluoro, and inject stain."
The little man introduced the intern while operating.
When the contrast image appears on the screen, the interns gasp.
"Is everything okay?"
The little girl Tori forced a smile and said, "Isn't it awful?"
"fine."
The little man said calmly: "Notify Dr. Duncan to go to the film room."
Watching room.
"The tumor surrounded five arteries and it looked so bad."
Dr. Burke also came over, looked carefully, and immediately shook his head.
"Three hospitals rejected this operation."
The director of surgery stood aside and looked at Adam: "Adam, do you want to pick it up?"
Adam didn't answer, just stared at the T-movie.
Seeing this, the director of the surgery department also understood that Adam was reconstructing the patient's human body structure diagram in his mind and deducing the surgical plan. He did not continue to ask questions, but looked at Dr. Burke.
“We can try to remove the stomach…”
Lexi said.
"No, the only way is to take out the stomach. Someone has had a living autologous transplant."
Dr. Burke frowned and said, "But you have to take out the liver and kidneys together.
This is a completely different two-way blood supply, and the feasibility is too low.
Even Adam and I had surgery."
To be continued...
