Chapter 1617 Supporting the Disciple

It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon in the soundproof office of Zhizhen Building.

Yu Zhiming has been standing in front of the viewing light, concentrating on studying the three sets of brain images for twenty minutes.

Qi Xin, who was standing quietly at the side, finally couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhiming, have you come up with a good idea?"

The couple who proposed to each other in the hospital, just as Qi Xin had guessed, the woman in the hospital gown encountered a life-threatening problem.

An egg-sized skull base meningioma.

Because the meningioma is too large, its location is quite dangerous, and it is intricately entangled with brain blood vessels and nerves, the surgery has only a 10% to 20% chance of success.

Yu Zhiming glanced at Qi Xin who looked expectant, and said, "This is a brain tumor. Given the patient's current condition, the only effective treatment is cranial surgery."

"I don't have the skills to perform cranial surgery. I'm waiting for a reply from Dr. Qin Jingmo in Beijing."

Qi Xin was disappointed, but she also knew that surgery was not Yu Zhiming's forte and she couldn't force it.

She then turned and asked, "Brother Zhiming, were you moved to come up with the wedding vows?"

Yu Zhiming said, "I haven't figured it out. To be honest, I'm not moved."

Qi Xin widened her eyes and asked, "No way? No way? You're not moved at all?"

"Three months ago, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor and my fiancé, who was in the process of discussing marriage, turned around and left without hesitation."

"With the help of her friends, she regained her spirits, decided to face the disease, actively received treatment, and also accepted the confession of love from a friend who had secretly liked her for many years."

"Now, on the eve of the operation, she has accepted the proposal of her new boyfriend. A friend in need is a friend indeed. That's it."

"Brother Zhiming, you're not moved by this?"

Yu Zhiming looked at the little girl with a questioning expression and decided to use his rich experience to let her know that she was purely self-moved and the proposal she saw today was not earth-shattering.

"Little girl, let me ask you, if there is someone who has liked you for many years, would you not know it?"

Qi Xin tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "You should know, right?"

Yu Zhiming said: "Women are more sensitive in their emotions. If someone has liked her for many years, she will not be unaware of it. Since she has not chosen the other person for many years, it means that she does not love that person."

"She was diagnosed with a serious illness, her fiancé ran away, and she turned around and accepted the man's confession. This is probably not love, but out of being moved or out of fear."

Qi Xin thought for a moment and said, "Brother Zhiming, what you said does make some sense."

She put herself in his shoes and said, "If I were that woman and really fell in love with this man, I would probably not accept his confession and proposal out of the desire not to burden him."

"You have to accept it after the treatment and get through the surgery."

Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "That's right. This is a skull base tumor surgery. The possibility of a vegetative state or failure is high."

"Even if the surgery is lucky enough to be successful, there is a high possibility of sequelae such as memory loss, personality changes, epilepsy, and damage or loss of some body functions."

Qi Xin nodded her head and suddenly said, "Brother Zhiming, you mean that the woman may not love the man."

"But the man has loved her silently for many years, and when the woman fell seriously ill, she never left him and stood up for him. Isn't this a great relationship?"

Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes but didn't comment.

However, Qi Xin could tell from Yu Zhiming's little actions that he was not interested in this kind of person.

A word suddenly popped up in Qi Xin's mind: "dog licker", but she felt that it was an insult to that person, so she didn't say it out loud.

However, after Yu Zhiming's explanation, Qi Xin's originally moving love seemed bland and boring.

Yu Zhiming suddenly said: "Qi Xin, let me tell you, love is not only a manifestation at critical moments, but also a long-term companionship."

“It’s okay to perform for a moment.”

"Given the woman's current situation, the man's confession and proposal are really nothing. If he can take care of that woman day in and day out for years, I will admire him."

At this time, the soundproof door was pushed open, and a head popped in first, followed by a body. "Teacher, I didn't disturb you, did I?"

Yu Zhiming glanced at Duan Yi, who was smiling ingratiatingly, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Teacher, please sit down first!"

Duan Yi did not answer, but pulled Yu Zhiming to the sofa in the reception area and sat down, and began to massage his shoulders in a servile manner.

"Teacher, my technique and strength are okay, right?"

Yu Zhiming urged, "It's rare to see you trying to please me like this. Tell me what's going on. I'm afraid it's too big to handle."

Duan Yi chuckled and said, "Teacher, it's just a very small matter. My boyfriend's family came to Binhai."

Yu Zhiming said, "Since your boyfriend is here, why are you still on duty at the hospital? Let Zhou Luo, Sui Chi or someone else take your place, and go and accompany them."

Duan Yi said with a bitter face: "Teacher, I have already accompanied you and we have had two meals together."

"There are quite a lot of people coming."

"Not only were there his parents, grandparents and brother, but also his aunt's family and uncle's family. They were all very welcoming, so welcoming that I was a little scared, so I avoided them under the pretext of being on duty."

Yu Zhiming said with some regret: "An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. You are not ugly and you are capable. Why are you hiding?"

"Hey, what do you want me to do?"

Duan Yi said awkwardly: "Teacher, there are a lot of people coming over there, can you support me, your disciple?"

Yu Zhiming immediately understood that he always had to take care of his students.

"That's easy. I happen to be free tonight. Go and book a private room and I'll treat them to a banquet."

These words immediately made Duan Yi dance with joy.

"Teacher, you are the best teacher in the world." As she said this, Duan Yi, who was standing behind the sofa, hugged Yu Zhiming from behind and kissed him on the cheek.

Looking at Duan Yi running away, Yu Zhiming wiped his cheek with tissue paper in disgust.

As a doctor, it is really outrageous that he does not pay attention to hygiene and prevent possible infection...

A few minutes later, Yu Zhiming received a call from Qin Jingmo.

"Doctor Yu, I've studied the information about brain tumors you sent me. The surgery is very difficult. Even if I perform the surgery, the chances of success will only increase by half."

Yu Zhiming asked: "Where is the main difficulty?"

Qin Jingmo replied on the phone: "The tumor is too big and is at the base of the skull. Not only is the edge irregular, but it is also entangled with arteries and nerves. The biggest difficulty is the last point."

While listening to Dr. Qin's story, Yu Zhiming examined the schematic diagram of the jellyfish-shaped brain tumor in his mind.

He asked, "Isn't it possible to inject radioactive particle rods into the tumor to shrink and collapse it?"

Qin Jingmo replied: "It is not suitable for the patient's condition. Although the tumor shrinks and collapses under pressure, its shape will become more irregular, and the entanglement with blood vessels and nerves will become more complicated, which will increase the difficulty of surgery!"

That's it...

Yu Zhiming added: "Since shrinking is impossible, then injecting liquid to make the tumor swell, can it make the surface of the tumor more regular and reduce the difficulty of the operation?"

At this moment, Yu Zhiming heard Qin Jingmo's voice, trying to suppress his laughter, "Doctor Yu, you actually thought of injecting liquid to make the tumor expand?"

"I mean you're wildly imaginative, or..."

Qin Jingmo's voice on the phone stopped abruptly in the middle of his speech, followed by a long silence.

Three or four minutes later, Qin Jingmo's voice came from Yu Zhiming's phone again.

"Doctor Yu, I took it for granted. Considering the patient's tumor condition, your idea of ​​making the tumor swell is indeed feasible..."
