Chapter 256

"What can I do?"

Liao Changgong hurriedly asked Xiao Chenguang as if grasping a life-saving straw.

At this moment, other family members of the old man rushed over.

"Longbow, is your dad okay?"

The old woman with silver hair walked tremblingly towards the emergency room.

"Mom, it's okay. Don't worry. I've invited the best doctors in our camp. It'll be okay."

Liao Changgong quickly helped the old woman to the rescue room.

"Xiao...Director Xiao, hello, I'm causing trouble for you."

The old woman saw that the person standing in the rescue room turned out to be Xiao Chenguang.

Her attitude became respectful. It seemed that she had also seen Xiao Chenguang's interview on TV.

"Auntie, there's no need for this. Just in time, let me ask you something."

Xiao Chenguang also didn't expect that his uncle and aunt, who were in their sixties and seventies, also knew him.

"Director Xiao, is it about my old man?"

"Yes, that's right. I would like to ask, did you eat anything hard to digest and hard in the past two days?"

Through contact, Xiao Chenguang knew that the old woman's cultural literacy was not low and her speech was also very good.

Every time Xiao Chenguang asked, the old woman could grasp the key points and answer. This kind of consultation was surprisingly efficient.

Xiao Chenguang also quickly learned the specific condition of the patient.

"The patient likes to eat peanuts, especially fried peanuts, but when he ate the day before yesterday, due to a cerebral infarction, his swallowing function was not good, and he choked directly into his lungs. Looking at the situation, the location of the choking was quite deep, and he couldn't even cough. Can’t cough.”

While Xiao Chenguang was analyzing his condition, the staff of the imaging department on the other side had already typed out the film.

"Look, there is an obvious high-density foreign body in the lingual segment of the upper lobe of my left lung. Judging from the shape, it should be a choked peanut."

Xiao Chenguang pointed to a corner of the CT film and said to the family members.

In fact, according to general experience, the most common site for aspiration is the right lung. Due to physiological structure, the main bronchi of the right lung is short and straight, making it easier for foreign bodies to be inhaled.

But the old man in front of him obviously didn't take the usual route and choked the peanut directly into the long and thin left main bronchus.

That's why I continue to choke and cough, and it's difficult to remove the foreign body.

"Director Xiao, you just said, is there any way to remove the foreign body without surgery?"

Liao Changgong became even more anxious after learning that his father had aspirated a foreign object.

How could he feel better with something stuck in his lungs? If he didn't come back in time today, his father's condition might be even worse.

"Perform fiberoptic bronchoscopy, wash the lungs, and use special small forceps to pinch out the foreign objects."

"Bronchoscope?"

Liao Changgong was stunned for a moment, obviously he had never heard of such a thing.

"A kind of endoscopic technology is new. We have not developed it in Yingcheng, but it should be available in the provincial capital. I can call and ask."

The endoscopic technology mentioned by Xiao Chenguang was often used in later generations.

For example, if a child has a high fever caused by mycoplasma infection and phlegm plugs block the bronchus, bronchoscopy can be used to explore, wash the lungs, and clean up the inflammation.

Although it was a bit painful, the child was fine immediately after the procedure was done. This is a major advancement in the development of endoscopic technology.

"Then if even this kind of bronchoscopy can't help, right? In the end, the only option is surgery."

Liao Changgong asked about his worries.

"Yes, surgery will be necessary by then." After Xiao Chenguang finished speaking, he saw that Liao Changgong's eyes were obviously dim, so he added another sentence.

Of course, this sentence was also because he had a good relationship with Liao Changgong and believed in his character.

If it were placed on the patient with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm that I met before, I would definitely not have said the following sentence.

"Reporter Liao, don't worry too much. The old man's aspiration didn't last long, and the foreign body is relatively stable. It's still easy to remove with a fiberoptic bronchoscope."

The reason why Xiao Chenguang is confident is due to his rich clinical experience.

Of course, there are also some patients with aspiration who, because they were not discovered in time, delayed their condition and ultimately had to undergo surgery.

He once met a six-year-old child who had a fever for nearly a year. After more than half a year of local investigation, he was treated as a cold and fever.

After spending a lot of money and still not eradicating the root, I had no choice but to come to the imperial capital for medical treatment. At that time, Xiao Chenguang went for a consultation and through X-rays and bronchoscopy, he discovered that there was actually a nearly one centimeter-long tumor hidden in the basal ganglia of the lower right lobe of the child. Screws.

This shocked everyone at the time.

After asking later, I found out that the child was probably idle and stuffed screws into his nostrils, accidentally choking his lungs.

Because it took too long, the screws became adherent to the surrounding lungs. In the end, the foreign body could only be removed through thoracoscopic surgery.

However, the situation of the patient in front of me is not that bad. Only when he is older and has underlying diseases does he become more urgent.

As long as the provincial capital has equipment, Xiao Chenguang can naturally help patients solve this problem.

Thinking about it in his mind, he took out his mobile phone from his outer pocket and started calling Xu Guoqiang at the Second Hospital of the provincial capital.

…

Hepatobiliary Surgery, Office.

The period since Xiao Chenguang left has not been as smooth sailing for Xu Guoqiang as he imagined.

Qiao Hong's father's radical surgery for gallbladder cancer was successfully performed that night. Coupled with the laparoscopic surgery after three-dimensional reconstruction the next day, Xu Guoqiang's status should have been further improved.

The dean even said that when the surgical building is completed, he would be given a separate floor to use as a minimally invasive surgical ward.

But.

Damn Shen Yiwei, he goes back on his word, has no martial ethics, and really has no shame at all.

I made a promise on stage in front of everyone, but then I turned my back on it.

Of course, this doesn't mean he has completely turned his back on others.

Instead, he used minimally invasive technology to put three layers of tight hoops on Xu Guoqiang's head.

In the name of the department director, it is stipulated that all routine surgeries, including laparoscopic surgeries, must be signed by him before they can be performed.

As for Xu Guoqiang, he was given the identity of the person in charge of minimally invasive technology.

It was said that he was asked to devote himself to research for the development of laparoscopic technology, but in the future, all surgeries involving surgery, whether emergency or elective surgeries, would have to be left to others.

Xu Guoqiang was very depressed, and even had the urge to curse.

Although he has been promoting laparoscopic technology over the years, many surgeries, especially level 4 complex major surgeries, can only be performed with large incisions.

He knows this better than anyone else.

But now, Shen Yiwei only allows him to perform laparoscopic surgery, which is called to prepare for the establishment of minimally invasive surgery in the future.

But Xu Guoqiang has also been performing traditional surgeries for nearly 20 years, which is his special skill and what he is most proud of. Now he refuses to move out of the way even if he refuses to do so, which is equivalent to breaking one of Xu Guoqiang's arms.

"It will take another one or two years for the surgical building to be completed. When the minimally invasive surgery clinic opens, I don't know that in the year of the monkey, Shen Yiwei, this bitch, wants to take advantage of these few years to crush me to death."

Xu Guoqiang frowned and sighed as he sat in the office.

At present, laparoscopy is not as good as traditional surgery. Except for some specific diseases, other major surgeries cannot be performed, and Xu Guoqiang does not dare to perform it.

During this period, Xu Guoqiang became the most leisurely person in the department. He had no surgery and could only work in the office.

It stands to reason that when you are free, your complexion should be better. Now, Xu Guoqiang not only looks ugly, but also loses handfuls of hair. His originally thick hair has immediately turned into a Mediterranean hairstyle.

As for developing new technologies, it is not that easy.

Shen Yiwei had been staring there, wanting to make Xu Guoqiang anxious and angry. If he rashly opened a new technology at this time, if something happened, he would have fallen into a trap.

"At the beginning, I confidently invited Xiao Xiao to come to the Second Hospital of the Provincial City and promised to give him the position of deputy director of minimally invasive surgery. Now it seems that whether I can keep my current position as deputy director is another matter."

When Xu Guoqiang thought about his warm invitation, he felt particularly slapped in the face, and even felt a little guilty during this period.

Afraid that Xiao Chenguang might change his mind, he called and said he wanted to work in the Second Hospital of the provincial capital.

At that time, I was like a Buddha crossing the river, and I couldn't protect myself. How can you care about other people?

Just when Xu Guoqiang's thoughts were wandering, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

This made his heart shrink, and an ominous premonition came over him.

He turned on the screen and looked at it, and then he showed a bitter smile. It was true that Cao Cao was about to arrive. The number displayed on the phone was Xiao Chenguang's number.

"Hey, Xiao Xiao, what's the matter with calling so late?"

Xu Guoqiang asked cautiously.
