Chapter 1078 I Believe in You! (Please Subscribe)

Tian Zhengkai's father was stunned by this unfamiliar term!

"Doctor, what is... Marfan syndrome?"

Chen Cang explained: "Now, the patient's sudden aortic dissection has no etiology and predisposing factors, and has a typical "spider sign". I now suspect that the patient is a Marfan syndrome patient."

"Marfan syndrome is a congenital genetic disease characterized by dystrophy of surrounding connective tissue, skeletal abnormalities, inner eye disease and cardiovascular abnormalities. It is a genetic disease with connective tissue as the basic defect."

"To put it simply, this disease is an autosomal dominant inheritance, and the probability of inheritance is very obvious!

Once suffering from this disease, the accumulation of mucopolysaccharides such as chondroitin sulfate A or C in the human body affects the structure and function of elastic fibers and other connective tissue fibers, resulting in dysplasia and dysfunction of the corresponding organs. "

"The heart valve and large blood vessels are cardiovascular lesions, which are also the main features of this disease, generally manifested as aortic disease and valvular disease!"

"A disease such as retinal detachment occurs when it acts on the eye..."

After Chen Cang finished speaking, Father Tian suddenly frowned.

He raised his hands and glanced at it: "I... do I count?"

Later, Tian Zhengkai's mother suddenly said, "Didn't you say before that your second uncle's son died suddenly of a heart attack? You have that cousin who had a heart attack early on, and it was better after surgery... Young people, everyone gets sick before the age of 40, and it stands to reason that there are no diseases such as high blood pressure!"

These words reminded Father Tian!

He frowned and said, "Doctor Chen, is it really so evil? Is this a genetic disease?"

After Chen Cang heard it, he took a deep breath. If he said that, he was already inseparable!

And if this is the case, nine out of ten patients have Marfan syndrome!

Seeing Father Tian so puzzled, Chen Cang nodded affirmatively and said, "Well, there should be no problem, this disease has a high probability of hereditary!"

Chen Cang is telling the truth. Speaking of which, this is the first time he has seen this disease. No, it is the first time he has been diagnosed with this disease.

Because this disease is called "the pronoun of death", it is a very rare but deadly disease in cardiac surgery, and even if the average age of this disease has symptoms, it is difficult to exceed more than 30 years without intervention and treatment. age!

Because at any time, I will be worried that the aorta will suddenly explode like a balloon!

In an instant, the whole family was shocked by the news.

Tian Zhengkai's wife is buzzing now, she has lost the ability to think!

She thought of her husband and her children...

"Dr. Chen, what do you mean... my husband is only starting slowly now, and his aorta will be continuously damaged?"

Chen Cang sighed: "Theoretically, it's like this."

"Can the operation be performed? You must save him!" The woman was already in tears at this time, and the tears fell down onto the child's face...

Chen Cang nodded: "We will definitely work hard. In Tian Zhengkai's situation, we are still considering the replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic arch, replacing all the damaged large blood vessels with artificial blood vessels."

"In the later stage, abdominal aortic replacement surgery may be required. In short, all major blood vessels will be replaced!"

This kind of operation is done in stages, the difficulty factor is high, and the difficulty of the operation is absolutely beyond what ordinary people can do.

Moreover, the number of chief surgeons who can perform a complete set of Marfan syndrome operations in China does not exceed two digits!

This is a nationwide statistic.

Including Chen Cang, he couldn't do it well at this time!

Because there are many branches of the thoracoabdominal aorta to be replaced, the intercostal arteries supplying the spinal cord, the bilateral renal arteries, the celiac trunk, the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries...etc.

To tell the truth at this time, Chen Cang was at a loss!

There is absolutely no 100% chance of surgery.

Even if Chen Cang Heart Surgery has a skill tree, master-level surgery is definitely not enough to support Chen Cang to give a firm answer.

At this moment, facing the expectant eyes of the three of them, and a little baby looking at the world with wide eyes and curiosity, Chen Cang actually wanted to say to them, "Don't worry, it's no problem!"

But he can't!

Aortic aneurysm or dissecting aneurysm rupture and death may occur in patients before surgery. During surgery, thrombus may fall off and cause severe embolism and obstruction. Postoperative lung infection and renal function impairment are common things!

How dare Chen Cang have the courage to guarantee!

The sudden appearance of a Marfan syndrome directly knocked Chen Cang, who had just won the post of President of the World Society of Gastrointestinal Surgery, into the world!

Life may be like that, and so is medicine.

When one problem after another appears, all your self-confidence, at this moment, will become less self-confident!

At this time, the signature letter sent by the doctor in charge, Xiao He.

Chen Cang handed it to the family: "Sign as soon as possible, we will start the operation as soon as possible."

The Tian family, who already knew the difficulty of the matter, did not dare to delay for half a minute at this time!

But even so, when I raised my right hand holding the pen, I felt... this pen is really heavy!

It's so heavy that they can't even breathe!

However, don't dare to waste time!

Signing in a hurry, Chen Cang turned and left.

At this moment, Chen Cang suddenly heard a cry.

"Doctor Chen!"

Chen Cang turned around and saw Tian Zhengkai's mother burst into tears. He clenched his fists and encouraged, "Dr. Chen, come on!"

Chen Cang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and turned to leave.

After Chen Cang left, Mother Tian said, "Now Dr. Chen is under more pressure than us. I can see that he is also very nervous!"

"We should support him! Encourage him! Trust him!"

Tian mother's words directly cheered the other two: "Dr. Chen, we believe in you!"

This time, Chen Cang didn't look back and walked directly towards the rescue room.

The doctor in charge of the bed followed closely behind Chen Cang, and was also moved by this scene.

He couldn't help following behind Chen Cang: "Sometimes I feel helpless in the face of distrust, but... I didn't expect that when I faced trust, the pressure would be even greater."

Chen Cang nodded and took a deep breath.

In this world, only hope and trust cannot be let down...

The doctor in charge of the bed gathered up his courage and said, "Doctor Chen...I..."

"I want to operate with you!"

Chen Cang nodded: "Okay, go and prepare for the operation!"

He Chao was immediately excited when he heard it, and said excitedly, "Thank you Dr. Chen, I will definitely do my best!"

Chen Cang couldn't help laughing bitterly: "You also saw how much pressure we are facing!"

The young He Chao looked at Chen Cang: "I believe in you!"
