In the special treatment room, the atmosphere was solemn and tense.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the scanned image of the triplets on the large screen on the wall. The three small bodies were connected together like a circle, and fate had bound them tightly in such a cruel way.
"Everyone, please share your ideas!" Lin Lin's voice was a little low.
Her eyes were full of worry. As the leader of this team, she was well aware of the enormous challenges ahead.
After a long silence, Zhao Ming spoke first, "According to the medical report, the condition of the triplets is very complicated."
"The situation of these three conjoined children is extremely complicated. They are connected like a circle, which brings unprecedented challenges and risks to the surgery."
He casually placed the video material in his hand on the table beside him, and then pointed to the large screen on the wall.
What was displayed above was a scanned image of the triplets.
"From the current images, it seems that some important organs may be shared, which means we must be extremely careful during the operation. Any mistake may cause irreparable harm to multiple children."
"To put it another way, even if every organ can be recreated through tissue culture, it can be transplanted."
"But can three children wait that long?" Zhao Ming's words were like a heavy hammer, making everyone's heart heavier.
A newly hired general practitioner continued Zhao Ming's words: "In addition to the difficulty of the operation, we also have to consider the children's physical tolerance."
"Besides, we don't have any professional pediatricians right now, right!?"
"They are just born and their bodies are very fragile. Whether they can withstand such a complicated operation is a big question."
"At the same time, another question arises. If we don't have surgery now, how long do we have to wait?"
"If these three children grow up, will there be any other risks that affect the surgical indicators?"
His face was full of worry and anxiety about the uncertainty of the future.
Nan Sheng added in a low voice, "Although it's difficult to die mysteriously, it's also quite easy in a hospital."
"Furthermore, newborns of strange creatures are just as prone to premature death as normal human newborns, or even more so. After all, the conditions they need to survive are also more favorable than those for humans."
His words made everyone fall into deeper contemplation. What is the future of these three special little lives?
Lin Lin listened attentively to everyone's speeches, her expression focused and solemn, nodding slightly in agreement from time to time. After a moment, she slowly said, "Everyone's saying something very reasonable."
She swept her eyes over the crowd again, her tone firm and steady, "Putting everything else aside, let's first discuss the possible risks of surgery."
Lin Lin's words basically set the tone for the subsequent discussion, which was to perform surgery on the three children at the best time.
Seeing that everyone in the special treatment room was looking down at the reports in their hands and no one stood up to refute her, Lin Lin continued.
"This is a critical issue we must address right now, as our goal is to perform surgery on all three children at the best possible time without any delay."
"Because we don't know what will happen if we wait any longer. Maybe it's good? Maybe it's bad!"
"We must nip this uncertainty in the bud."
"We must do our utmost to avoid further mishaps in the future, as any accident could greatly affect the future of our three children. Their fate is now in our hands."
"For example, massive bleeding and organ dysfunction are issues we must face. Infection can basically be ignored, but we still need to pay attention to it."
Her eyes were firm, as if telling everyone that no matter how many difficulties lay ahead, they must not retreat.
"I looked up some information. Take a look at it!" She handed the document in her hand to the person next to her, indicating that he should pass it to others.
Seeing that everyone had the report in hand, Lin Lin continued, "According to statistics from previous similar cases, the probability of heavy bleeding in a complicated conjoined twin separation surgery like this one is as high as 30%."
"Given the current conditions of these three children, the special connections in their bodies make it extremely difficult to manage their blood vessels during surgery."
"The expected amount of bleeding could be around 500 to 1000 ml, which is extremely dangerous for a newborn baby."
"The incidence of organ dysfunction is also around 25%. Some of their important organs may be shared. A slight mistake during surgery could cause serious damage to the organ functions of multiple children."
"For example, the probability of heart damage is about 15%, and the probability of kidney problems is about 20%..."
These specific data remind everyone in the special treatment room that this operation is full of huge risks and challenges.
Everyone looked at the report in their hands, their expressions becoming more solemn.
Silence fell upon the room once again, with only the occasional sound of shuffling papers being heard.
After a while, an experienced surgeon broke the silence: "With such a high risk, we must develop the most thorough surgical plan."
"Based on the current situation, we recommend adding an additional test, which is to perform more detailed angiography on children."
