Chapter 90 Extreme Liver

"Not optimistic, doctor..."

"Has our old Su been transferred?"

After Zhao Shuyun heard the doctor's words, her face turned pale as a sheet, her voice trembled, and she even became unsteady on her feet.

"Don't think too much. The patient's cancer cells have not metastasized."

The old woman shook her head and said firmly.

"Doctor, what did you just mean..."

Hearing this, Zhao Shuyun took a breath and then asked.

"You are the patient's wife. You should know the patient's condition best." The old woman pushed up her glasses on the bridge of her nose and said seriously: "The patient should have a long history of drinking and smoking. Habits are not good, and liver cancer is also caused by repeated hepatitis and cirrhosis. As a result, the quality of his liver is abnormally poor. In the eyes of our doctors, his liver is close to the limit. "

"Extreme liver?"

Zhao Shuyun's heart skipped a beat when she saw the doctor's serious expression.

"I think you have already checked out the treatment methods for liver cancer before coming to the hospital. Judging from the current medical technology, for cancer patients whose cancer cells have not metastasized, if they want to prevent further deterioration, malignant tumors should be removed. Surgery should be the best treatment method. As long as the malignant tumor is completely removed and postoperative rehabilitation is provided, the probability of future recurrence will be minimized."

"For normal adults, without cirrhosis, the maximum tolerated liver resection volume is 80%. In the case of cirrhosis, the maximum tolerated liver resection volume is 50%. However, with a liver like your husband's, the maximum tolerated liver resection volume is [-]%. The volume of liver resection will be lower. If the maximum tolerated volume of liver resection is exceeded, the patient may not be able to get off the operating table, and even if he can get off the operating table, he may not be able to get out of the ICU."

"However, in surgery for malignant tumor resection, all cancerous tissues and tissues that are not yet cancerous but may proliferate cancer cells must be removed. According to your father's condition, if you want to remove all these cancerous and potentially cancerous tissues, there is a high probability that This maximum tolerated liver resection volume will be exceeded."

Perhaps because of the pity of the mother and daughter, or because Su Xiaoxiao was a student at Zhonghai Jiaotong University, the old woman made no secret of Su Jingsheng's condition based on her decades of experience. Everything was told to Zhao Shuyun and Su Xiaoxiao.

"Cancerous tissue and possible cancerous tissue must be completely removed, otherwise the operation will be meaningless. The recurrence rate of liver cancer is very high. If the removal is not complete and short-term recurrence occurs, for the patient, It would be an experience worse than death."

"However, if you do not perform surgery to remove the malignant tumor and adopt conservative treatment, the probability of cancer cell metastasis will be very high. When the patient's liver is already at its limit, if the cancer cells metastasize to other organs, even if Hua Tuo is reincarnated, I’m afraid it couldn’t be more difficult to treat.”

When the old woman finished speaking, Zhao Shuyun and Su Xiaoxiao had already burst into tears without even realizing it. After the doctor's explanation, they knew that Su Jingsheng had half-stepped into the Palace of Hell at this moment.

Choosing surgery is extremely risky, and you may not be able to get off the operating table, but there is a glimmer of hope.

If you refuse surgery and receive conservative treatment, you will basically be waiting to die, but in the end you will still have some time to fulfill your wishes and spend time with your family.

How to choose?
It's too hard to choose!

"Doctor, if I choose surgery, what is the success rate?"

Zhao Shuyun was not a weak woman. She wiped the tears on her face, stared at the old woman and asked.

"Um……"

"I can't answer that for you."

The old woman pondered for a moment and slowly shook her head: "For such an extremely difficult operation, ordinary attending physicians are not even qualified to go on the operating table. At least they must be deputy chief physicians or above to be qualified to perform such an operation. It could just be that you are qualified.”

"If you want to ensure a certain success rate, even an ordinary chief physician cannot guarantee it. Only the top domestic hepatobiliary surgery experts can personally perform the surgery to ensure a greater success rate."

When Zhao Shuyun heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw, and she quickly asked: "Doctor, can you perform such an operation?" "Me?" The old woman shook her head and sighed. : "I am 72 years old this year. I can't even hold the scalpel steady. How can I get on the operating table?"

Zhao Shuyun was stunned for a moment, and the eyes that had just lit up quickly dimmed again.

"Teacher, besides you, does Ruijin Hospital have any top hepatobiliary surgery experts? No matter how much money we make, our family will accept it!"

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed with determination, and she asked the old woman.

"Mr. Zhao Mingwu, the chief physician of the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department of Ruijin Hospital, is the top expert in hepatobiliary surgery in China. Even though he is well-known internationally, Director Zhao's malignant tumor resection surgery has been scheduled for a month, and the patient's No one knows whether the condition can last that long, whether the cancer cells will metastasize and expand during this period."

"All in all, the sooner you have surgery, the better."

At the end, the old woman gave her professional advice.

"Teacher, my father's condition can no longer be delayed. Do you think you can ask Director Zhao to be accommodating and have my father's surgery be performed in advance?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked a little anxious. Although she knew that this was an act of jumping in line, it concerned her closest relatives and she couldn't care much about it at the moment. She was only 20 years old and didn't want to lose her father so early.

Facing Su Xiaoxiao's inquiry, the old woman remained silent, neither saying she could nor she couldn't.

Su Xiaoxiao is not a fool. The fact that she was admitted to China Maritime Jiaotong University shows that she has sufficient IQ. The fact that she can dance well and make countless people fall under her skirt shows that she has sufficient emotional intelligence, so she quickly understood the old woman's That makes sense.

It is definitely possible to advance the surgery, but the prerequisite is whether you can have the face to make the other party accommodating.

Given the other party's status, it would be difficult for the other party to make an exception with ordinary money.

of course……

If the benefits are worth millions or even tens of millions, the other party will definitely make an exception. After all, money is attractive and no one can refuse such a temptation.

But Su Xiaoxiao was from an ordinary family and couldn't offer a price that was hard for the other party to refuse.

With neither money nor a strong enough relationship, the possibility of the other party making an exception was slim.

It sounds a little unkind, but this is the reality. If exceptions become the norm, there will be no order at all. Therefore, in order to maintain the normal order of medical treatment, this matter is destined to not be easy.

"I have said everything that should be said and what should not be said." The old woman, who was used to seeing separation and death, sighed softly: "Your top priority now is to hospitalize the patient first. We only have beds left in the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department. There aren’t many left, and if you delay a little longer, there may not even be beds left.”

"Ok."

Su Xiaoxiao murmured in response, and after finishing speaking, she bowed deeply to the old woman.

Facing Su Xiaoxiao's bow, the old woman accepted it calmly, and then waved her hand to indicate that the two of them could go out.

Later, Su Xiaoxiao helped Zhao Shuyun out of Clinic No. 2. Looking at the bustling crowd of people passing by outside the clinic, she suddenly became confused.

Is it...

Is there really no other way?
