With the combined assistance of Zhang Ming and Xu Ya, the patient with a 30cm tumor was operated on by Xia Tian.

Two hours later.

The patient's various reports were sent to the third consultation room.

In CT images.

A huge tumor was growing inside the patient's abdomen.

30cm!

It's as big as a basketball.

In the summer, they placed all the films on the film light. The three of them stood in front of the light. Xia Tian crossed his arms, Wang Xiaobei pinched his chin, and Wang Boyi put his hands in his pockets. The three of them stood there for a full ten minutes without saying a word.

Ten minutes later, Wang Xiaobei asked a question timidly.

"Is she pregnant?"

Xia Tian nodded: "You could say that."

Wang Boyi added, "But this baby isn't a human baby; it's a tumor baby."

"Look here."

Wang Boyi pointed to the two arteries on the left and right sides below the tumor and said to the two people.

"The tumor is connected to the patient's two common iliac arteries."

"The tumor has clearly become one with the patient. Blood from the common iliac artery flows through the tumor and into the aorta. If conventional surgery is used to directly remove the tumor, it is equivalent to directly severing the blood supply to the patient's two common iliac arteries and the aorta."

"The mortality rate for patients is as high as 90%. Even if they are lucky enough to survive, the iliac artery will be severed, resulting in insufficient blood supply, which can lead to venous thrombosis and the possibility of lower limb paralysis."

The heart is like a water pump, connected to countless blood vessels.

Among them are several large blood vessels called arteries.

Arteries are broadly classified into five types: the aorta, brachiocephalic artery, common carotid artery, subclavian artery, vertebral artery, and common iliac artery.

There are many more subdivided arteries.

For example, the radial artery.

When someone cuts their wrist, they sever the radial artery.

A severed artery will cause massive bleeding, and if the bleeding is not stopped immediately, it can lead to death.

The patient's tumor is connected to the two common iliac arteries, and direct surgery would cause massive bleeding.

"Brother Tian, ​​what should we do?"

"The risks of direct surgery are too great."

"But not surgery... given the shape of this tumor, it will likely continue to regenerate!"

"The patient reported that 11 months ago, he did not have any abdominal discomfort or his abdomen was distended. In just 11 months, the tumor has grown so large. If this is delayed, the patient's life will be in danger."

Wang Xiaobei said quietly.

Summer fell into deep thought.

Is the system online?

[Host, I am here. 】

"I still have two more opportunities to have surgery, right?"

That's right!

Are there any cases in the system of removing a 30cm tumor?

[Host, please wait a moment, I am searching.]

A minute later, the system's cold voice came through.

[In 2015, there was a case in Kansas where a 55-year-old patient had a 35cm tumor in his abdomen for five years, similar to the host patient's condition. Doctors in Kansas performed tumor removal surgery on the patient.]

"Did it work?"

[It was successful, but the patient died seven days after the surgery.]

wipe……

"Why did he die? Complications?"

The patient had high blood pressure, which led to complications after surgery, resulting in death.

That's it!

A 35cm tumor is essentially a giant blood vessel. Normal blood enters the tumor, leaves some inside, and then enters the body. The fact that the patient survived for five years indicates that the body has accepted the presence of the tumor.

When a tumor is suddenly removed, the body needs to readjust to the speed of blood flow and the level of blood pressure.

In addition, the patient has high blood pressure and is elderly.

It's quite normal for complications and death to occur.

What made Xia Tian happy was that the female patient was very young, only 25 years old, and in good health, without high blood pressure, high blood sugar, or other conditions, which would increase her chances of survival.

"System, send me the surgical records from Kansas."

[Yes, host, please wait a moment!]

1, 2, 3, ...

[Surgery message sent, please check, host!]

In an instant, all the information entered Xia Tian's mind, including the appearance of the 35cm tumor patient, the surgical procedure, and the subsequent complications.

Ok?

Reviewing the entire treatment process, it was noted that the patient experienced ventricular fibrillation twice during the procedure, requiring a full half hour of resuscitation efforts.

There was also a major hemorrhage.

The entire surgery took 11 hours.

The patient was saved only after a multi-department team of more than a dozen doctors worked together to save him.

After watching the whole process, Xia Tian was speechless.

"During surgery, the patient's chances of survival are extremely slim!"

"Two episodes of ventricular fibrillation and one major hemorrhage—the patient survived the surgery because of sheer luck! Could those doctors do it again?"

"Why is it that other people's male protagonists can cure all diseases with a single acupuncture needle, but for me, it's a matter of life and death?"

"System, shouldn't you reflect on your own actions?"

If the host is dissatisfied with this system, this system can be left.

(System: Shall I leave?)

Xia Tian was taken aback for a moment, then grinned.

"Look at you, you're being too polite."

"We've known each other for so long, we've developed some feelings for each other. How could I bear to let you leave? You're my old baby. Alright, alright, go ahead and do your work."

"I'm going to get busy too."

[Take care, host!]

[Additionally, the host can be reminded that this super dopamine can be used not only on the host but also on patients. Patients can maintain a high-energy state for up to 15 minutes. Please make good use of this.]

Ok?
