Chapter 326: Everyone has different ways of living. Whatever you are afraid of, Dr. Zhou panics.
After seeing so many café-au-lait spots on the patient’s body, Zhou Can was basically diagnosed.
This disease can actually be detected through an eye examination.
The ophthalmologist can see miliary brown-yellow nodules in the iris through a slit lamp.
Zhou Can picked up the patient's B-ultrasound examination sheet again and could see the subcutaneous mass.
Multiple neuromas may appear in the peripheral nerves at the diseased site.
If left untreated, it will spread further.
This is also the main reason why the nearby fingers are affected and lesions develop subsequently.
There is currently no specific medicine for the treatment of neurofibroma macrodactyly. The best way is to undergo surgery, supplemented by some drug treatments. The main treatment idea is to ensure the patient's quality of life and reduce tumor recurrence.
and work to reduce complications.
There is currently no cure for this disease.
Zhou Can's treatment ideas are very clear. Taking into account the patient's family difficulties, the child's father died in a car accident, the child's grandmother is a sanitation worker, and the mother works outside to make money.
Try to save treatment costs for this family and reduce recurrence.
Of course, the first priority is to ensure that the patient's hand function is restored as much as possible. The child is still so young, and when he takes out his right hand, he immediately looks like a monster, which will cause great damage to the child's mind.
He will naturally be ostracized and isolated by other classmates in school.
Through surgery, the child's right hand can be restored to its normal shape and function. This is the current primary treatment goal.
After communicating with the child’s grandmother, arrangements were made for the child to be hospitalized for surgery.
Surgical treatment includes soft tissue reduction, epiphyseal fusion, bone tissue reduction, amputation of part of the finger, carpal tunnel decompression... It seems that the treatment area is only two fingers, but it is much more complicated than imagined.
Moreover, the technical requirements for doctors are quite high.
There is no need to worry about this.
Tuya's surgical capabilities are among the best in the province, with multiple teams capable of performing surgeries of this level.
At close to 11 o'clock in the morning, the little boy who had had a fever for more than two years, chest pain, and had not eaten for two days came back from the blood routine and B-ultrasound.
After the child's mother handed the test results to Zhou Can, she checked them frequently with her mobile phone.
Those who didn't know better thought she was in a hurry to go to work.
Zhou Can, however, became angry after seeing this. The father of this child was a bad gambler, and the mother was not a good person either.
The child only eats two meals a day. If the mother is a little more responsible, this will not happen.
"The blood test results showed that the total number of white blood cells and the proportion of neutrophils in the patient were significantly increased, and there were symptoms of anemia. The hemoglobin was reduced." Zhou Can frowned slightly after checking the blood picture.
Long-term fever and an increase in the total number of white blood cells, these two together, in most cases indicate inflammation, virus invasion, etc. in the patient's body.
The patient also had symptoms of long-term chest pain, and the pain was actually located in the upper abdomen, which belongs to the area where the liver is located.
After Zhou Can checked the B-ultrasound results, he couldn't help but be shocked.
"Your child may have an abscess or tumor in his liver! And the situation is very serious!"
No wonder children always complain of chest pain.
The area of fluid dark area in the liver area was very large. Zhou Can judged that the possibility of liver tumor was small and liver abscess was likely to have occurred.
B-ultrasound is quite accurate in diagnosing the size and extent of abscesses.
As a parent, I really want to take off my shoes and slap them in the mouth.
If the child had been sent to the hospital for treatment when he first had a fever, it would not have become so serious.
"I know it's serious. Doctor, can you tell me how to treat it?"
The woman looked unconcerned.
Maybe she thought Zhou Can was deliberately trying to scare her.
"It is recommended to do a liver puncture first and extract some pus samples for further testing. After the specific cause is confirmed, further treatment can be carried out."
Zhou Can gave diagnosis and treatment opinions.
At present, it is only preliminary suspicion that there is an abscess in the liver, but it cannot be diagnosed.
I don’t even know what the disease is specifically.
"Haven't everything been found out? We still need to check it out! You have also seen the attitude of the child's father. It is simply impossible for him to spend a lot of money for the child's treatment."
When the woman heard this, she immediately became unhappy.
I don’t know if she really doesn’t care about her child’s life or if she doesn’t realize how serious her son’s condition is.
"The father of the child is unwilling to spend money for treatment. You are also the parent of the child. You can treat it!"
Zhou Can said to the woman.
The child looked at his mother pitifully.
"I have no money at all, how can I treat him?"
She felt the child's gaze, and it seemed that her conscience finally found out.
The attitude is somewhat more sincere.
"Don't you have a job?"
Zhou Can asked curiously.
"No! My father and I play cards and mahjong every day. When we win money, we order two takeaways. When we have no money, we make some noodles at home."
The woman's answer really refreshed Zhou Can's outlook.
Some people can actually live like this.
"Then you and your wife neither work nor have much savings. What if you encounter something big that costs money? Just like now, your son's condition is so serious that treatment will cost at least 10,000 yuan. If you don't have money for treatment,
Wouldn’t it just delay the child?”
The people Zhou Can comes into contact with on weekdays may be the positive people in this society.
His colleagues and friends are at least doctors or nurses with serious jobs. Their incomes are stable and their social status is not bad. His parents, as well as Li Lao, Mr. Cui, and his girlfriend Su Qianqian, these people already belong to society.
Middle and upper class people, a proper elite class.
The people at the bottom of society that he comes into contact with are basically patients.
Just like the old lady who is a sanitation worker who brought her grandson to treat macrodactyly, and the young father who brought his child to treat the deformity of his dry hand, they all belong to the bottom of society. But even if they are at the bottom of society, they are still working hard and do not want to die.
At the bottom.
I can’t imagine this gambling couple sleeping at the card table every day and not working.
The most pitiable ones are their children.
"What did you say? My son's treatment costs more than 10,000?"
The woman seemed frightened by the high cost of treatment.
Ten thousand yuan, for some people, may only be half a month or a month's salary, but for people like them who make a living by gambling, it is already a huge sum of money.
"It will cost at least 10,000 yuan. If the child is brought to see a doctor when he first gets sick, he may be cured with about 3,000 yuan."
Zhou Can said seriously.
"I'll call his father first."
The woman's mobile phone doesn't seem to be bad, it must cost at least two to three thousand yuan.
People, different people have different ways of living. People like her typically live one day at a time.
"Hey, husband, the doctor said our son's medical treatment will cost at least 10,000 yuan, what should we do?"
"I'm playing cards! It won't be worth ten thousand if you sell me, so you can figure it out!"
"I have no money!"
"You don't have money, do I have money? It cost me one hundred and twenty to check that prodigal son this morning. I have to win it back. That's it, hang up now."
"Hey, hey..."
The woman looked dejectedly at her cell phone, which had ended the call.
"Doctor, you have also seen the attitude of the child's father. I told him that he would not care at all. I still have more than three hundred yuan with me, why don't you get some medicine! I will take the child home for treatment."
At least this mother still looks like a human being at the moment and can use all the money she has to buy medicine for her child.
It's just that the child's condition is so serious that he will definitely need puncture and drainage, or even surgery to incise the abscess and then apply medicine. I'm afraid three hundred yuan is not even a fraction.
Zhou Can looked embarrassed.
"Your son's condition can no longer be solved by simply taking medicine. It requires puncture and drainage. Moreover, the cause of the disease is not yet clear and there is no way to prescribe medicine. Also, his illness cannot be delayed any longer, otherwise his life will be in danger."
Zhou Can could only do the ideological work for the family members with sincerity.
