My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 1592 648: Unexpected, No Longer Needed
Previously on My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points...
In Zhou Can's view, Mr. Song's condition accurately reflects the characteristics of neural atrophy.
Even though he receives at least four caregivers every day to take turns massaging his muscles and stretching his limbs, he still cannot move his neck and lumbar spine flexibly like a normal person.
Due to his esteemed status, no one dares to hold his head and turn it from side to side, let alone help him sit up and twist his waist forward, backward, left, or right.
After all, in his current condition, a slight accident could prove fatal.
No one can shoulder that responsibility.
A normal person's neck rotates over a hundred times a day. The waist also bends multiple times.
For ordinary people, this is just part of daily life.
But for Mr. Song, making any movement is a luxury. It's been ten years since he last moved his neck or waist, and even with professional caregivers providing massages, there's no way to prevent the natural atrophy of nerves.
Over time, blood circulation also gradually weakens and becomes obstructed.
Life depends on movement.
If a person doesn't move, they become like a sapling that never bathes in sunlight, ultimately withering and drying out.
With the help of various high-tech and professional medical care, Mr. Song's bodily functions have been maintained in a decent state. However, many issues still remain.
After some contemplation, Zhou Can believes that to cure Mr. Song's illness, a multifaceted approach is necessary.
The first thing to be done is to repair the severed nerves.
This requires performing brain surgery.
Bold and skillful, he decides to take it step by step.
First, complete the brain surgery, ensuring the nerve signals between the brainstem and spinal cord are thoroughly unobstructed, before continuing with rehabilitation training, aiming to create a medical miracle.
There are definitely risks.
But based on Zhou Can's treatment of numerous highly difficult neurological cases, as long as the patient, doctor, and family all have confidence and persistently conduct scientific and reasonable postoperative rehabilitation training while coordinating medications and checkups,
it is possible to eventually succeed.
For example, the paralyzed man who was impaled by rebar at the construction site, with his wife's help and his child's encouragement, ultimately teamed up with medical personnel to successfully stand up again.
"Mr. Song, after examining you just now, your overall condition seems fairly good. However, due to prolonged bed confinement and inability to move, some nerves and bodily functions have indeed experienced degeneration and atrophy. Before coming here, I specially reviewed all the records of the surgery you had ten years ago. Director Xu thoroughly removed that malignant tumor in your cranial cavity, which was certainly no easy feat. Even to us younger medical professionals, it's still considered a remarkable feat in neurosurgery today."
Zhou Can's words aren't merely flattering Dr. Xu.
They are based on certain factual grounds.
The patient had a malignant tumor inside the skull at that time, which was almost equivalent to a death sentence.
Because it was located in the brainstem area.
Even today, removing such a tumor remains extraordinarily difficult.
No hospital would dare to take it on.
Not even the top hospitals in Beijing or Shanghai.
Although Dr. Xu never explained why he decided to take on such a risky surgery back then, based on Zhou Can's understanding of Dr. Xu, it must have been a moment of sympathy.
The patient or family begged and persuaded him to do it.
No one expected that after the incident, the patient's family would completely turn against him.
If the family had an ounce of empathy, at least they could see how Dr. Xu consistently donated most of his salary over the decade and take the initiative to absolve him of guilt.
Instead of letting Dr. Xu continue to live humbly in disgrace.
"I have carefully studied your surgical records and, combined with the physical exam just conducted, I believe your nerves have the potential for repair. As long as you and your family are willing to cooperate, I am confident I can help you stand up again."
Speaking directly to Mr. Song like this, Zhou Can had no choice.
So far, none of the family members have shown up, leaving only the housekeeper to receive him.
There's no one to consult with.
When he came to pay his respects and identified himself, it's likely that the family and Housekeeper Bian had already checked his background.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been let in.
In such a powerful family, Zhou Can feels a wary respect for their unpredictable nature.
"Mm-mm-mm..."
Mr. Song became visibly agitated after hearing this.
"Get out, quickly get out!"
The doctors and nurses were taken aback.
While frantically taking measures to stabilize Mr. Song Dingxian's vital signs, they yelled for Zhou Can to leave at once.
"Mr. Song, I am the rising star in neurosurgery at Tuya, with successful treatments in numerous extremely difficult cases of severe paralysis. Please trust me."
Zhou Can was being pulled out by Housekeeper Bian, and he continued speaking to Mr. Song.
"Mm-mm..."
Mr. Song responded with indistinct sounds.
After being 'escorted' out, Housekeeper Bian did not look happy.
"Young man, you were too reckless. Mr. Song cannot handle stress – if anything were to happen, could you bear the responsibility? None of us could withstand the consequences."
Housekeeper Bian deeply understands the formidable power of the Song family.
He is also aware of Mr. Song Dingxian's significance.
Zhou Can was brought in by him, and if he caused a major incident, how could he expect the family to spare him?
At that point, not only would Housekeeper Bian suffer, but even the two medical staff might face repercussions.
"I apologize for alarming you and others. But rest assured, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen to Mr. Song. I'm sure you've reviewed my background; I currently hold the highest success rate in critical intensive care at Tuya Hospital."
