The System's red panel was glaring as a few diagnostics appeared in front of him.
Septic shock, intestinal rupture, congenital muscle abnormalities on the right side of the waist, subcutaneous gas …
Zheng Ren looked at the diagnosis, a little absent-minded.
A congenital muscle abnormality on the right side of the waist was a rare diagnosis. The main reason was that the muscle tissue was relatively thin, so it was easy to form a hernia.
However, the System did not give a diagnosis of lumbar hernia. Therefore, during the liposuction, due to the abnormal abdominal muscle tissue, the negative pressure caused the intestinal rupture.
Zheng Ren was speechless. How could this be?
There were all kinds of complications in clinical surgeries. Zheng Ren could only make guesses based on probability. He had never thought of the possibility of intestinal rupture.
The stretcher trolley rumbled over, and the doctors and nurses of the Emergency Department pushed the patients out as if there was wind under their feet. Zheng Ren quickly stepped aside and watched the patient leave.
However, it was good that the diagnosis was clear. Although septic shock was serious, it was still better than an incurable disease like fat embolism.
Zheng Ren found Dr. Liang and sat in the CT room's office. Dr. Liang quickly uploaded the scans and Zheng Ren soon saw the patient's abdominal CT image.
It showed that there was widespread subcutaneous pneumatosis in the abdominal wall below the xiphoid process. Zheng Ren looked at the radiographic films and seemed to feel like he was holding snow. Free air sacs and inflammatory changes also existed around the ascending colon, which was a more typical imaging change of intestinal rupture.
Zheng Ren looked at the radiographic films and did a reconstruction in his mind.
The infection in the abdominal cavity was particularly severe. Zheng Ren estimated that there were many ruptures and perforations in the intestines.
"Boss Zheng, you haven't been here lately." Dr. Liang saw Zheng Ren reading the film and came over to get close to him.
As Boss Zheng flew higher and higher, Dr. Liang felt that he could no longer reach him. However, it was also good to take the opportunity to say a few words and get closer.
"I've been busy recently." Zheng Ren smiled and said, "How's your side? Quite busy, I guess. "
All his thoughts were on the CT scan, so he did not pay attention to the conversation with Professor Liang.
"Just like that, nothing special. It's boring to look at radiographic films and write reports every day, "Dr. Liang said with a smile." Boss Zheng, do you know this patient? "
"My friend asked me to take a look."
"The patient's intestine rupture is quite serious. Was he beaten up, or was it a car accident? No, it was not a car accident. If it's like this, there must be a fracture. "Dr. Liang muttered to himself," Is it domestic violence? Boss Zheng, if this is domestic violence, it will be a big deal. "
"No." Zheng Ren sighed. "It's a complication of liposuction."
"Uh …" Dr. Liang was stunned. Liposuction had such serious complications?
"Here." Zheng Ren pointed at the computer screen. "The abdominal wall muscle tissue is a little thin. It's probably because the negative pressure stayed in this position for a long time during the liposuction surgery, resulting in intestinal perforation."
Normally, who would look at muscle tissue when looking at a CT scan? Even if they saw it, they would just brush past it and not pay it any heed. Professor Liang was stunned for a moment before following Zheng Ren's instructions.
However, if it was liposuction, a thin abdominal wall would be fatal.
"Liposuction has such serious complications." Dr. Liang sighed.
"As long as it's a surgery, there will be complications." Zheng Ren felt the same way. Medical treatment was not easy.
If there were too many preoperative examinations, the patient would be unhappy. In recent years, there had been a term called overtreatment, which was used to describe this.
However, if there were too few tests, the patient in front of him was an example. Although this patient had liposuction surgery in a shady clinic, the principle was the same.
What a dilemma.
If one was unlucky in the clinic, they would not be able to work for long. A single mishap would cause the halberd to sink into the sand.
This time, the shady clinic was unlucky and encountered a rare patient.
"This time, we'll have to spend a lot of money," Professor Shen sighed.
The infection in the intestines was so obvious. Even if the surgery was successful, it was questionable whether he could be saved from septic shock.
Spending money was only one aspect. There was also the possibility of spending a lot of money and not being able to save the patient.
"I'll go to the gastrointestinal surgery department to take a look. You go ahead." Zheng Ren stood up, said goodbye to Professor Liang, and turned to leave.
As he walked, he thought about this matter.
There was no problem with the patient's diagnosis, but there was a big problem with how to treat it.
If he did not intervene, Lin Jiaojiao would have to pay and contribute. However, they had never met before. Why would she contribute money and effort?
Would the patient's family think that she was guilty? That the small clinic had something to do with Lin Jiaojiao? Would she be bitten in the end?
It was hard to say how things would develop in the end.
Thinking about it, Zheng Ren took out his phone and hesitated for a moment before calling Feng Jianguo.
"Brother Feng, a patient has just been sent to your department. Who picked him up?" Zheng Ren asked.
"The chief resident, Xiaocao, went to see him," Feng Jianguo said on the phone. "I'm looking at the radiographic films. His intestines are ruptured and he's preparing for surgery."
"The patient's family, did you see it?"
"I took a look. I'm anxious to see the radiographic films. The patient's family seems to have a conflict and are arguing, "Feng Jianguo said casually.
Doctors and nurses rarely intervened in the conflict between the patient's family.
As long as they were responsible for treating the patient, why should they interfere in other people's housework? It was difficult for even an upright official to resolve family disputes, let alone doctors and nurses.
If they forced themselves to participate, they might end up in the wrong.
"Brother Feng, I'll go take a look," Zheng Ren said as he walked.
"Huh? Do you know this patient? "
"I don't know him. It's quite complicated." Zheng Ren was also very helpless. "He's a patient after liposuction with a ruptured intestine."
"After liposuction?" Feng Jianguo was a little surprised.
Although he had been in the gastrointestinal surgery department for decades, it was the first time he had seen a ruptured intestine caused by liposuction. He had just picked up the patient and before he could ask about his medical history, the patient's family members had started arguing.
"Let's talk when we meet." After Zheng Ren said that, he hung up the phone.
Zheng Ren was too lazy to think about what to do. He would first see the patient and the patient's family members and then act according to the situation. Moreover, there was still a conflict between the patient's family members. It was useless for him to think too much.
Soon, he arrived at the gastrointestinal surgery department.
A dark-skinned farmer's woman with a weathered face stood in the corridor, wiping away her tears as she grabbed a young man's clothes.
The young man looked 22 or 23 years old and had a hooligan aura. He even had an earring on his left ear. He was very impatient and had a look of disgust on his face.
The corridor was in a mess. The patient's family members, doctors, and nurses were all busy. Zheng Ren did not hear their conversation clearly.
After taking a few steps closer, Zheng Ren heard the farmer's woman pleading, "Child, I don't have much money here, but we have to save a life."
"It's none of my business!" The young man flicked his sleeves and said, "Let me tell you, don't f * cking try to scam me. This has nothing to do with me!"
