Doctor of Healing

Chapter 471 The "cured" late cancer patient

"How many similar patients are there?" Director Fan asked.

He was worried that the number of patients would be low, and if they disagreed, he would still have to do work.

"Hundreds of them." Director Li Mingli replied casually, "At first I could remember the exact number, but when there were too many, I forgot."

"A total of several hundred?" Director Fan asked in surprise.

"Hundreds of them can live for more than 3 years after surgery."

"!!!"

Director Fan was a little puzzled, a little surprised, a little puzzled.

But all emotions were instantly suppressed by him, and he said gratefully, "Director Li, thank you very much!"

"You're welcome." Director Li Mingli smiled, "I'll arrange for a doctor to meet with you. If there's anything you can't solve, just call me."

This attitude is completely different from Director Yang's attitude towards himself from the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery.

Director Fan felt that there was a huge pit waiting for him in front of him, but when he thought about it carefully, it was nothing. Director Li Mingli did everything he requested, and he just cooperated like an ordinary person.

Seeing Director Fan stunned, Director Li smiled slightly, "Director Fan, our small department is incomparable with hepatobiliary surgery and neurosurgery."

"Oh?" Director Fan didn't understand what Director Li said.

"He is a big department, and there have been big bosses since the founding of the Republic. You know the right to speak."

"I know." Director Fan seemed to understand something.

"Interventional surgery, I only care about a little bit, let's talk about liver cancer. The boss has never been exposed to it when he was young or middle-aged, so they don't care. So our interventional treatment of liver cancer has never been written in the clinical guidelines. It’s like the vast majority of ordinary people don’t know about it.”

"Let's not talk about patients and ordinary people. Now, if we ask the doctors and nurses of our First Affiliated Hospital one by one, at least 80% of the doctors and nurses have a hard time explaining what the interventional department does." Director Li felt helpless.

"Such an exaggeration?!" Director Fan was surprised.

"Of course." Director Li Mingli said seriously, "I'm not flattering you, and I don't have any other requirements. I just want to use the program to do a science popularization, so that people know the scope, content and effect of our intervention department."

"But having said that, I want to read what I said at the end, okay?"

"Yes, yes, you must come to guide the program when editing. We strive to make a highly professional program. If there are any flaws, it will be bad." Director Fan's doubts were all gone.

He stretched out his hand and shook Director Li Mingli firmly.

"Director Li, happy cooperation."

"Of course, the operation just now was also very pleasant." Director Li Mingli said, "Dr. Xiaoji's operation level is very high, no wonder he sneered at Boss Qin's solicitation."

This involves the secrets of the medical field that cannot be on the show. Director Fan vaguely knows that he is not interested in this, and only wants to film something.

After the operation was over, a doctor pushed the patient back, and Director Li Mingli sent a small doctor to Director Fan.

"Hello, Director Fan. My name is Han Chu. I'm the chief resident of the interventional department, and my title is an attending physician." Dr. Han first introduced himself to Director Fan very politely.

Dr. Han cooperated with Dao Fan's work very well, contacted ten "old" patients in a very short time, and found their information on the computer.

The camera crew starts recording.

These ten patients, like the patients who had just undergone surgery, belonged to the advanced stage of cancer, which could not be cured by surgery or medication.

Dr. Han first took out a patient's imaging data and explained the location and size of the tumor to Director Fan.

The tumor is about 10cm, and after liver cancer resection, the patient basically does not have a good liver.

Director Fan expressed his incomprehension.

Judging by his previous "common sense", this type of patient already belongs to one foot... No, the whole body is entering the gate of hell.

The second picture was just after surgery, and there were bright light spots around the tumor. Dr. Han explained that it was lipiodol drifted in during the surgery, which can kill cancer cells.

The imaging data of the second hospitalization review after 35 days showed that the tumor had begun to necrosis.

"Doctor Han, I don't think the changes have changed much." Director Fan was a little puzzled.

"The patient has only one lobe of liver left. If too much medicine is injected at once, the effect will be good, but the patient's liver function may not be able to withstand it. And there is also the possibility of tumor necrosis, rupture and bleeding."

"So we all perform the operation step by step, and observe the patient's condition after the operation, but we dare not act too harshly at once."

"Some patients don't understand and think that we can't do anything in order to make more money. But let's be honest, who would like to eat the line if it's okay."

After Dr. Han finished his explanation, he began to play other images of the patient.

The tumor will change over time with each re-examination, and even Dao Fan, who belongs to the ordinary "mass", can see that the tumor has shrunk significantly.

The effect is obvious, and Dr. Han's explanation is not needed at all.

After 12 operations, the tumor on the imaging has disappeared.

The effect of the operation made Fan Dao dumbfounded. The person whose whole body was entering the gate of hell was "fished" back like this?If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Director Fan would have thought it was a fairy tale.

"The patient is re-examined once every three months. This is the most recent film." Dr. Han retrieved the latest image, "The caudate lobe of the liver has regrown, and the patient has a reserve of liver function, which is great!"

"It's been six years." Director Fan murmured.

"Well, this is not the longest time. We have an old patient with advanced liver cancer who lived for 12 years. Later, he died of cerebral hemorrhage. At that time, there was no need for surgery. After consultation with the patient's family, we decided to give up and let the old man go. calm down."

"!!!" Director Fan felt that he had learned a lot.

"Let's look at the image data of the next patient."

After introducing the information of one patient, Dr. Han began to describe the next patient.

The patient's medical history was similar. They all relapsed after resection of liver cancer. After radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the growth of tumor cells still could not be curbed, and they were on the verge of death.

In desperation, the patient came to the interventional department for treatment.

It was another long treatment cycle, and the patient returned to normal after more than a dozen operations.

Although Dao Fan knew that there was a survivor bias in this, the accumulation of more than ten years in a hospital could have "cured" hundreds of patients with advanced liver cancer, which was unacceptable to him.

Dr. Han is very patient, and introduces the patient little by little in a clear and orderly manner, explaining the images.

Camera crews have also been filming.

In the comment room, the bald host asked a little puzzled, "Mr. Shen, can liver cancer really be cured?"

Professor Shen shook his head.

"It can't be cured. These patients in the First Affiliated Hospital seem to be cured, but they need to be re-examined every 3 months. If there is a new tumor, they need to be operated again."

What he said was complicated, and the guests didn't understand it.

Professor Shen finally murmured, "But it can prolong the survival time, isn't it very good."
