Doctor of Healing

Chapter 453 Cat Calling Syndrome

A bunch of people outside the ultrasound room are waiting anxiously.

After seeing the camera, they were a little surprised, but their anxiety did not diminish, and some even stole hostile glances.

Director Fan complained straight away, and he also wanted to see the communication between Ji Xiang and other directors.As for the situation in front of him, he probably couldn't get in at all.

Invading other people's privacy, and bringing a camera crew along, this kind of mistake will not be made by Director Fan.

"Director Kong?" Director Li called out from outside.

"Wait a minute, check."

Director Li nodded, and stood outside with Director Yang and Ji Xiang waiting for the inspection to end.

But I don't know why, it's just a B-ultrasound, Director Kong still hasn't come out after 10 minutes.

They are all wearing plain clothes, and it is inconvenient to go in, which will arouse resentment and even hostility from the family members of the patients.

Director Li took out his mobile phone to keep checking the time and the door from time to time, but Director Kong just didn't come out for a long time.

After another 10 minutes, a pregnant woman came out. Director Kong and the patient's family members explained something and walked up to Jixiang with a serious expression.

"You are Dr. Ji Xiang." Director Kong stretched out his hand, and before Ji Xiang raised his hand, he took his hand and shook it up and down, "I heard from Li Ming that when you were in Shanghai, you took that old thing away. Curse."

Ji Xiang smiled a little embarrassedly, but he didn't expect to get compliments from others when he cursed.

But he knows why.

"Don't make things difficult for Jixiang." Director Li smiled, "Change clothes and go to eat. You have such a big wrist, how can it take so long to get a B-ultrasound."

"Don't mention it, I always feel that there is a problem, but I don't know what's wrong." Director Kong said suspiciously.

"Ok?"

"Ultrasound showed a small amount of fluid in the fetal pericardium and a single umbilical artery." Director Kong said, "There is a high probability of malformation, but the family members of the patient are always lucky."

Jixiang knows that under normal circumstances, the umbilical cord blood vessel of the fetus has 2 umbilical arteries and 1 umbilical vein.The fetus has only one umbilical artery and one vein called the single umbilical artery.

This phenomenon is relatively rare in humans, and its mechanism has not been fully elucidated, and its clinical significance is still under study.

It is generally believed that the single umbilical artery is one of the markers of abnormal fetal development. However, only one marker of the single umbilical artery does not indicate abnormal fetal development or fetal chromosomal abnormalities.

"Let's go for another examination. Why are you checking so carefully? No matter how many times you look, can you still see another artery and vein?"

"Go, go out to eat."

"Let the family members go for an examination. I'll change clothes. Wait for me." Director Kong also knew that what they said was right, so he glanced at Ji Xiang again.

Seeing that Ji Xiang was in a daze, which was different from the sharp and fearless image in the legend, Director Kong thought that Ji Xiang's blood was surging at that time, so he pointed at Boss Qin's nose and scolded him.

As for normal times, there is no reason to bark your teeth and claws when you see people.

Moreover, a young man who can face Qin Chu's surging blood should have good character.

This is also in line with his understanding of Dr. Guipei.

"Director Kong." Just as Director Kong turned to change clothes, Ji Xiang said suddenly.

"Well, what's the matter, Dr. Jixiang?" Director Kong asked.

"Do pregnant women have a history of severe vomiting in the early stage?"

The two directors Yang and Li frowned slightly. Is Ji Xiang so troubled?

But Fan Dao, who was not far away, cheered up and made a gesture to signal the film crew to follow.

"No." Director Kong replied flatly, "The patient didn't feel anything during the pre-pregnancy period and has been working all the time."

"What does she do? Has she been exposed to chemicals?" Ji Xiang asked again.

"Chemicals..." Director Kong obviously didn't ask so carefully, he looked up at Ji Xiang, "Doctor Ji Xiang, do you think it's necessary?"

"Yes." Ji Xiang replied seriously, "Although a single umbilical artery cannot be used as a sign of congenital diseases, a small amount of pericardial effusion and a single umbilical artery combined. If a pregnant woman has a history of exposure to chemical substances, four births can be considered. Meowing Syndrome."

"what?"

"What?"

The two directors, Yang and Li, were stunned for a moment. The four-born cat-calling syndrome, you heard it right, the name is too weird.

Director Kong's expression quickly became serious. He took a deep look at Ji Xiang, nodded slightly, and turned to communicate with the patients and their families who hadn't left yet.

"Dr. Jixiang, what is cat-calling syndrome of four babies? I am not wrong about the name." Director Li Mingli also asked directly.

"This disease is also called 5p partial monosomy syndrome, which is caused by the breakage and deletion at the end of the short arm of chromosome 5, and belongs to autosomal deletion disease.

It is called meowing syndrome because of high-pitched, meowing cries after birth.

In addition to specific crying, children are often accompanied by abnormalities such as mental retardation, growth retardation, language barriers, congenital heart disease, intracranial lesions, and spinal deformities. "

"..."

"..."

The two directors looked at Jixiang as if they were aliens.

If Ji Xiang is of a high level, they will admit it, but no matter how high he is, he must take a look at the B-ultrasound image.

Can Ji Xiang give a diagnosis just by hearing Director Kong say that a small amount of pericardial effusion merged with a single umbilical artery?

And it's a very unpopular diagnosis-meowing syndrome.

"If there is only a small amount of pericardial effusion, a single umbilical artery cannot be diagnosed, but if a pregnant woman has severe vomiting in the first trimester or is an employee of a chemical factory, it can be diagnosed with a high probability."

Ji Xiang gave an explanation directly as if he knew what the two directors were thinking.

The two directors looked at Ji Xiang silently.

Director Fan's heart blossomed with joy, this is what he wanted!This is it! !
This is what the audience wants to see!

He has vaguely seen that the ratings of the second episode have reached more than 500 million times on the Internet.

Become!

After communicating with the patient's family, Director Kong turned around and said to Ji Xiang, "Dr. Ji Xiang, the patient has no history of chemical exposure."

The two directors laughed dumbfounded.

Ji Xiang's pretense failed. Compared with the previous vows, Ji Xiang is a bit embarrassed now.

But it's no wonder that Jixiang doesn't know all the information, and it's inevitable that he will make mistakes in diagnosis.

Director Fan was slightly disappointed.

"Then..." Ji Xiang pondered, he seemed to have paused, and then asked, "Director Kong, I think the patient's hair seems to have been dyed. If the hair was dyed frequently before pregnancy for a long time, it can be regarded as exposure to chemicals."

"frequently?"

"Looking at the type and frequency, I estimate that pregnant women dye their hair at least once a week before pregnancy."

"Then I'll ask again." Director Kong was not impatient, and turned around to ask the patient and the patient's family again.

This time, he came back quickly with sharp eyes.

"Doctor Ji Xiang, you guessed it right." Director Kong said in a deep voice, "The pregnant woman had her hair done 4 times in half a year. Isn't this just nonsense!"

Director Fan was stunned. There is a connection between hairdo and meowing syndrome? !
