American drama life begins with Dr. House
Chapter 52 Tumor beyond the safety line, call for foreign aid (4000 words)
An hour later, Du Wei returned to the diagnostic department.
Dr. Nolan, who had been waiting, had a look of obvious impatience on his face.
He was the emergency physician on duty yesterday. In theory, after he dealt with the female patient with deep vein thrombosis, he could go play golf with his friends.
Then go home, take a hot bath, and have a comfortable sleep.
As a result, House got mad and got into trouble with him.
Not only that, but he also blocked him from letting the patient go home.
Now he is called here for consultation!
With his eyes bloodshot, he was on the verge of going berserk if there was no evidence that something was wrong with the patient.
He will definitely complain to Dean Cady about House's behavior this time.
So when he saw Du Wei arriving late, Nolan didn't have a good look on his face.
To him, House was mocking him in a weird way, but Duwei was the one who exposed him to his face.
If House hadn't been there for this merciless approach, he would have scolded Duwei to pieces.
House didn't even expose him directly. He's just an intern, how dare he go directly over him and make such nonsense?
House gave him too much courage!
Unexpectedly, Du Wei ignored Nolan's fierce look and just handed the ultrasound report to House.
"Sorry, I'm late, I arranged a full body examination for the patient.
However, due to the patient's lack of cooperation, I did not have permission to use sedatives.
Therefore, the blood test was not carried out, and only an ultrasound examination was done reluctantly for the time being.
The results of the examination were not optimistic. There was a substantial lesion in her liver. According to my judgment, it was a tumor, a tumor on the liver.
It can basically be concluded that she has cancer."
After hearing Du Wei's conclusion, everyone present changed their expressions.
Tumor on the liver? Basically, the patient’s liver function has failed.
In other words, if she had been allowed to leave, the patient would have been close to death.
Before House could speak, Duwei continued:
"In addition, I learned from her children that her three meals a day were burgers without vegetables.
Living like this lasted for a long time, which proved that she did not consume enough vitamin K from vegetables.
Lack of vitamin K is the cause of deep vein thrombosis in patients and is also the cause of liver cirrhosis.
So what we have to do is not only supplement the patient with vitamin K, but also choose to perform surgery to transplant the liver or remove the tumor.
But there are two pieces of bad news. First, it is very difficult for a patient like her to get approval for a liver transplant if she takes a few sips of vodka.
Second, the tumor is very large, with a diameter of 5.8 centimeters, which has exceeded the safety line for surgery."
Du Wei, who finished the diagnosis in one breath, took the coffee from Cameron and drank it, using the trace amount of caffeine to try to keep his mind clear.
In this way, there will be no reversal of word order and no logic.
After hearing Du Wei's judgment, Dr. Nolan on the side was so shocked by Du Wei's words that he could not speak.
He quietly glanced at the report in House's hand.
There are indeed lesions in the liver.
That is to say, this string of information from Du Wei confirmed that the patient did indeed have a problem, or it was a big problem!
If he lets the patient go home in the morning, then he is really in danger!
If the patient's family complains about this matter, he is likely to lose his medical license!
Because he directly judged that the patient was fine based on his own experience without conducting a series of examinations!
If it weren't for House...he might have to hire a lawyer now.
Thinking of this, Nolan looked at House no longer with anger, but with gratitude.
This House simply saved his life!
House didn't care at all about Nolan's thoughts, he just frowned and thought.
Du Wei did a really good job. From communicating with patients to obtaining preliminary information, House had more confirmable information.
According to the information obtained so far, there is absolutely no problem with Du Wei's judgment.
But they say they have two options, but everyone knows that the higher authorities will not approve a liver transplant for an alcoholic.
And House has never been a doctor who is good at surgery.
So there was only one way before them.
"5.8 centimeters? It seems we need to use special means to make it smaller."
Everyone naturally understands what shrinking means.
Generally speaking, tumors will only grow and not shrink.
But the tumor on the liver was an accident.
They can inject 20 ml of ethanol with a concentration of more than 95% into the liver to absorb the water.
This causes tumor cells to become smaller due to dehydration.
But this operation is indeed an illegal operation.
If something goes wrong, no one present can run away.
So for a while no one dared to answer House's words.
Just when everyone was silent, Nolan, who wanted to reciprocate his kindness, suddenly said:
“Although the doctors in our hospital will not agree to remove such a large tumor for the sake of cure rate.
But I know a highly respected oncologist from another hospital.
His laser surgery therapy burns the wound while laser cutting, so as to save as much of the liver as possible.
This is important for the patient's postoperative recovery.
Whether you need to call in foreign aid or not depends on your choice."
After hearing Nolan's suggestion, House walked back and forth several times on crutches.
"Nolan, who is the oncologist you know? Is he reliable?"
Nolan rummaged through his phone for a while, pulled out a photo and handed it to House:
"You may have heard of him, Robert, the most famous surgeon in the neighborhood.
The only drawback is that it costs a lot of money to hire him.
But if he is given enough remuneration, he will definitely accept the operation."
House raised his eyebrows, showing surprise.
They are all people in the medical field, just like House is famous in the diagnostic field.
Robert was also very famous in the field of surgery, of course that was in his youth.
"Oh, it turned out to be him, but I heard that the patient has been applying for subsidies, and I'm afraid he doesn't have enough savings to afford the surgery.
It’s better to follow my method and shrink the tumor so that the surgeon agrees to the operation.”
After hearing House's words, Cameron frowned immediately:
"Then we can't just watch her die, right? How much does this surgery cost? I can subsidize them within my ability."
Chase, who was silently observing Cameron from the side, chuckled. Just when he was about to show off his money making ability, Du Wei had already spoken first:
"It doesn't matter, I can help her pay for the surgery no matter how much it costs.
We don't need to take the risk of violating the rules.
But I have a request. I want to watch this operation.
It’s okay even if I dare to do odd jobs nearby.”
Chase, who had not yet spoken, was slightly startled. In his impression, Du Wei was still the work-study student.
He had heard of Doctor Robert.
The technology is great, but the price is also notoriously high.
It's impossible to agree to this surgery without paying hundreds of thousands of dollars.
This much money is a bit painful even for Chase.
Just now, he wanted to show off in front of Cameron, so he was willing to spend a lot of money to make the beauty smile. Otherwise, he would not use so much money to help a stranger.
This is true for him, so why can Du Wei say that he doesn't care about money?
Where could Du Wei get so much money?
Even if Du Wei said he was taking private work.
But Du Wei could not earn so much money at once no matter how many private jobs he took on.
Is it possible that Du Wei has touched something recorded in the criminal law?
Chase looked at Du Wei with worry in his eyes. In his impression, no one who came into contact with those underground forces died well in the end.
If Du Wei really did those illegal things, then I'm afraid he wouldn't be surprised to hear the news of Du Wei's sudden death one day.
Compared to Chase, who knew a little about the inside story, Dr. Nolan, who didn't know much about Du Wei, immediately thought that Du Wei was a hidden rich second generation.
Nolan believes that only the second generation of rich people can say that they can help with any amount of money.
In the beautiful country, money and power have always been closely linked.
Thinking of his bad attitude towards Du Wei just now, Nolan immediately wanted to save the relationship between the two.
The previous stinky face disappeared instantly and turned into a kind smile, and then he praised:
"Du...Doctor Du Wei, right? You really have a kind heart.
It is because of doctors like you that patients in this world have hope.
I believe God will bless your soul and ascend to heaven.
As for your request to observe the surgery, please rest assured.
Since you are solely sponsoring this operation, Dr. Robert will definitely agree.
So without further ado, for the sake of the patient’s health, how about I contact him now?”
Dr. Nolan's last words were to House.
House nodded:
"Contact him. The earlier the tumor removal surgery is performed, the better the postoperative recovery will be.
Prolonging this process will only make the patient's condition worse and worse."
Soon, with the coordination of the hospital, Dr. Robert, who was promised a sufficient amount of remuneration, set off directly from another hospital.
In order to show respect, most of the available doctors and nurses at Princeton University Hospital lined up at the gate to greet him under the arrangement of the hospital.
After all, Dr. Robert's temper is as famous as his craftsmanship.
The hospital was also afraid that he would refuse the operation if he was even slightly dissatisfied.
So when Robert stepped into Princeton University Hospital, everyone saw this top surgeon who was a little older.
However, Du Wei in the crowd suddenly noticed that Dr. Robert looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that this guy was an old acquaintance of his.
Robert, who was walking between the two groups, also looked towards the crowd as if he was aware of it. He happened to find Duwei standing behind House and looking at him. He was immediately stunned.
Because Du Wei was actually the young doctor who succeeded him in operating Wesker!
Why is this guy here?
Speaking of which, if it hadn't been for Du Wei, he might not have been able to see the sun today.
So for him, Du Wei is equivalent to his savior!
Robert's eyes suddenly showed excitement, and he wanted to walk towards Du Wei.
But he suddenly stopped, with doubt in his eyes.
This hospital still needs to spend money to treat me when Du Wei is here?
Isn't this a joke?
He used a knife in front of Du Wei? What's the difference between this and playing an ax in front of Luban's door?
Robert, who was confused, asked Dr. Nolan who invited him in a low voice.
Only then did I learn that Du Wei was an intern here, and he had been assigned to do odd jobs for him.
When Robert heard this news, he was instantly angry!
This hospital is a complete waste of resources!
Such a surgical genius is only allowed to serve as a diagnostic intern?
And let him do something for you?
Such talents can completely perform their own surgery!
Such an arrangement is too wasteful!
How many people could Du Wei save if he were replaced as the surgeon?
Everyone was at a loss when they saw Robert, who suddenly had an angry look on his face.
They had long heard that Robert had a bad temper, but they didn't expect it to be this bad.
Obviously Robert just asked who the young man who looked at him was.
As a result, he got angry?
Could it be that this intern doctor Duwei had provoked Robert before?
Thinking of this possibility, Dr. Nolan quickly waved his hand to Duwei to leave quickly and not to make Robert angry by staying here.
If Robert turned around and left in anger, no one would be able to perform surgery to remove the liver tumor.
But Du Wei stood there as if he didn't notice anything.
Nolan was so anxious that he jumped up and down and almost shouted, "Go away quickly, don't make Robert angry".
The direction Robert then headed confirmed Nolan's suspicion.
Robert was actually striding in the direction of Duwei!
Nolan's heart thumped and he thought to himself that it was not good. He quickly caught up with him and said with a smile:
"Doctor Robert, the operating room is going this way, and we have already started anesthetizing the patient.
You should be able to have surgery soon."
Robert impatiently slapped Nolan's hand in front of him:
"I know, I know, but I have an acquaintance here. I need to say hello to him first. It won't take long!"
Seeing Robert confirming that Du Wei was an acquaintance, Nolan's forehead was sweating.
Now it's good, it's real.
They say they are acquaintances, but in fact they must have deep ties to each other.
This made Robert ignore the generous reward and talk to Duwei.
Looking at Robert with an angry look on his face, Nolan felt that he had screwed up.
Forget it, let's destroy it. Du Wei is also the financial sponsor anyway. If there is any dispute between the two, then this operation will basically be useless.
Nolan, who tried to dissuade him in vain, followed Robert as if he was hopeless.
He originally thought that using his own connections to bring in Robert would make House think highly of him.
I won't be so angry with him next time.
As a result, I am afraid that the final outcome will fall into the hands of this 'rich second generation' intern doctor.
House frowned as he watched Robert walking straight over, then turned slightly sideways and stood in front of Duwei.
In any case, Du Wei is also his assistant, and he will not let others bully Du Wei.
