The afternoon sun gradually lost its sharpness. When the skin touched it, it felt like stroking a cat, and it was no longer as rough and hard as a dog's fur.
The devil's ivy, which had absorbed enough light, also looked like it had eaten its fill. It lay on its back lazily and looked like it was sleeping. Even when a spider plant came over, it did not bother to pull it away.
The officials and relatives who came to visit gradually left. Those who stayed were basically the experts invited by the director's wife, as well as Chief Ma's brothers-in-law, siblings, nephews, nieces, cousins, in-laws, nieces, old classmates, old subordinates, and other helpers.
At the request of the director's wife, the invited experts gathered in the living room next door and discussed Chief Ma's condition with all kinds of reports.
"From the scans, it's still early stage if it's 26 mm by 16 mm. In this case, surgery is still the first choice. Of course, radiofrequency ablation can also be considered. The radiofrequency ablation can be carried out in stages, and the patient's pain is less than surgery."
"The good thing now is that there is no metastasis. This can be seen very clearly from the PET scan. So, overall, the condition is better."
"It's a relatively common position, which is also a good thing. The Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of the provincial hospital has performed many similar surgeries. In fact, the junior doctors can do it. If we do it ourselves, the effect should be better. However, there are definitely risks in the surgery. Although it's early stage liver cancer, we still need to be aware of the risks of operating on the liver … "
While the director's wife listened to the experts' discussion, she frequently looked inside the suite. She hoped that her husband would listen to the experts' discussion and make a new choice.
The final decision on this matter must be made by Chief Ma himself. However, the director's wife still felt that older and more experienced doctors would be more reassuring.
Based on experience, she also did not want to let a young doctor operate on her husband, especially when this doctor had not appeared yet.
"This Doctor Ling of yours is too arrogant. It's been a while, and he's still not here yet." The director's wife impatiently urged the people from Yun Hua Hospital.
Zuo Cidian stood up with a smile and said, "Doctor Ling happened to be performing surgery. He's finished, so he came."
"There are so many people here waiting for him." The director's wife only said this and turned around to express her displeasure.
With her status, if she did that in the hospital, she would usually get an apology and behavior modification.
But this time, before she could get an apology from Yun Hua Hospital, she heard Chief Ma slam the bed. "What are you doing? Is this a place for you to mess around? Come here. I'm coming. "
Director Ma shouted twice and looked like he was throwing a tantrum again. Only then did the director's wife unhappily move her butt and walk over.
She was giving her husband face outside.
It was one thing to make a decision, but one still had to play with one's temper.
Chief Ma did not give his wife a chance to throw a tantrum this time. He slapped his thigh angrily and said, "Look at you. You don't even know anything about surgery. What are you discussing over there? Is surgery something that can be discussed?"
The director's wife did not expect to be scolded as soon as she came over. She could not help but say angrily, "I did so much for you …"
"I know you did it for my own good, but what about others …" When Chief Ma said this, he paused and changed his tone. He said, "Shufen, I've been the director for so many years, and I've seen this kind of preoperative discussion many times. Let me tell you, preoperative preparation and preoperative discussion can only be used to make some preparations before the surgery. It's useless if you don't burn incense and cram when you're in a hurry."
The director's wife shook her head firmly. "Even if it's not quick, it'll still be good."
Chief Ma was a little touched. He smiled and lay down firmly. He slowed down and said, "I don't object to last-minute preparation, but the person holding the gun must be the best, right?"
"So many experts …"
"Listen to me." Chief Ma paused and said, "If it were other positions, I might have to think about it again. But for hepatectomy, unless you go abroad, Doctor Ling is the best. Later, when the person comes over, don't be angry at him. He's going to operate on your husband. "
When she heard her husband say this, Mrs. Ma could not help but soften her attitude.
The family members and doctors next to her were speechless.
Even the voices of the experts next to them became softer. They looked at each other, and no one said anything to refute.
On the one hand, no one was willing to stand up for them. On the other hand, everyone asked themselves, 'If I need to perform hepatectomy, who will do it?'
There were many experts in the province and even in the country who performed hepatectomy, but when their pictures floated over, Ling Ran left a deeper impression on them, and he gave them a greater sense of security.
Forget about other things, just the fact that he insisted on staying at the operating table and let Chief Ma and other leaders wait was already an amazing thing. Not to mention the doctors in China, there were also cases of Hong Kong doctors letting patients open their abdominal cavities and wait for three hours before going out to do other things.
Medical ethics was a simple word, but it was extremely difficult to put into practice.
Mrs. Ma held her husband's hand and became quiet.
Ample preparation and a lot of investment could increase the success rate of the surgery, but it would not determine the success rate of the surgery. When she thought about this, she could not help but feel depressed.
"Doctor Ling is here." A young nurse suppressed her excitement and came in to report.
Chief Ma immediately sat up.
"Just sit down," the horsewoman hurriedly said.
Chief Ma lifted the quilt and said, "I'm not really sick and bedridden."
As he spoke, he put on his slippers and walked out, just in time to meet Ling Ran at the door.
"Hello, Doctor Ling." Chief Ma subconsciously extended his hand and took the initiative to shake hands with Ling Ran.
If it weren't for the fact that he was sick, Chief Ma wouldn't have done this. It was almost his innate ability to manipulate people's identities.
However, when the cancer report came out, Chief Ma's strongest instinct was to survive.
He looked at Ling Ran with a tenderness hidden in his nervous eyes, and a hopeful expression hung at the corner of his eyes.
Ling Ran acted as if he was doing his usual ward rounds. He first gave the patient and his family a smile, then gently shook hands with Chief Ma. Immediately, he took out a bottle of alcohol-based hand sanitizer and applied it on his face.
Zuo Cidian quickly went forward and explained with familiarity, "Doctor Ling has a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, please don't mind."
"Why would I?" Chief Ma was actually a little annoyed, but at this time, he could not care less.
"Doctor Zuo has already sent the scans to me." Ling Ran entered the room and looked around. He saw many familiar doctors, but he just nodded and said to Chief Ma, "Lie down, I'll do a physical examination."
"Okay," Chief Ma replied and quickly lay back on the bed.
Mrs. Ma felt that her husband was a little too easygoing. She wanted to say something, but when she saw that many experts surrounded them, she swallowed her words.
Everyone looked at Ling Ran with different thoughts in their minds.
The experts' gazes were especially cautious.
Physical examination was a diagnostic skill that everyone knew how to do, but many experts would not do it in front of other professionals. This was because there were many details in a physical examination, and it was very easy to make mistakes if one was not at the top level trained by the system.
At a time like this where experts gathered, everyone might be more willing to look at the examination report and imaging data and express some profound opinions. Compared to doing it directly, the probability of making mistakes was much lower.
However, Ling Ran never thought about this.
He did not even notice how many people were looking at his operation. In his life, there was a high probability of being surrounded by people. When he went to the amusement park to play, the other amusement facilities were empty, but when Ling Ran went to play, the amusement park would definitely be full of people, and he slowly got used to it.
However, the experts present thought a lot.
Some people stared at Ling Ran, and all kinds of thoughts kept surging in their minds. There were even two villains of good and evil fighting.
"Should we step on him to get ahead?"
"You can step on him, but don't kill him. Give the young man a chance."
Ling Ran slowly pressed on it with one hand.
The Master Level Physical Examination immediately gave Ling Ran a lot of information.
The ward was as quiet as a disco during the day.
Many experts who had never seen Ling Ran in person all had a deep impression of Ling Ran at this time.
"What do you think?" Ling Ran performed a physical examination, but he asked Chief Ma.
"Me?" Chief Ma hesitated for a moment and said, "I just want to be cured."
"Even if the malignant tumor in the liver is removed, there is a higher probability of recurrence." Ling Ran paused for a moment and said, "But surgical removal is currently the best plan."
"Then … surgery." Chief Ma had actually thought about it a long time ago.
Ling Ran nodded slightly and said, "Then get ready. Fast and water. We will carry out the surgery in four hours."
"Ah … so fast?" Chief Ma's family was shocked.
Mrs. Ma could no longer control her emotions, and tears flowed down. She looked at Ling Ran and said in a sad voice, "Doctor Ling …"
