Hu Hao gasped when he heard this. The doctor's words seemed to declare that the child could die at any time, and the parents' psychology would basically be crushed.
Cao Zhao looked at the parents' expressions and waited quietly. He reached into the pocket of his white coat and took out a handkerchief and handed it to the parents.
This god-like person gave him a handkerchief, as if he had given him a magical treasure. Hu Hao felt this way, and he stretched out his hands involuntarily to catch the other person's handkerchief.
"Wipe your sweat." Cao Zhao said to him.
Hu Hao put the handkerchief to his forehead and wiped it.
Xie Wanying thought of the handkerchief that Senior Brother Cao often carried in his pocket. Was it similar to what Second Brother Cao was giving Hu Hao now? (Cao Yong: Junior Sister, you think too much...)
"Let's talk about this digestive tract examination later. The child's condition is not as serious as I said." Cao Zhao tapped the key points drawn by Xie. Even without angiography, a talented medical student was able to roughly guess where the problem was based on the relatively rough imaging results.
It is not that the digestive tract X-ray examination cannot show anything without contrast. It is just that the organs and tissues in the abdomen are very similar in density, and the images taken are easily confused and difficult to identify. Therefore, the purpose of injecting contrast agents is to enhance the contrast so that doctors can easily distinguish the various tissues and organs and ultimately find the lesions.
According to the above principle, Xie is more than just awesome. Cao Zhaochong glanced at Xie's face again.

Xie Wanying remained cautious at all times, ready to answer the teacher's questions at any time.
Continuing to give a lecture to the parents, Cao Zhao said: "Generally speaking, the location of the fistula is estimated to be at the T2 level. If it is confirmed, a laparoscopic surgery may be performed to solve the problem. It can be said that this child is very lucky."
"Is my son lucky?" After being hit hard, Hu Hao heard the doctor's words again and his hope was rekindled.
Parents who are not medical students do not know that many children with esophageal atresia need staged surgery. Staged surgery means that not one surgery can help children solve the problem and cure the disease. Staged surgery is very common in pediatric surgery, and the reason has been explained before.
Therefore, the purpose of classifying esophageal atresia into five types is to guide doctors in their subsequent treatment plan.
Like type I, the first type of esophageal atresia, there is no fistula and no connection with the trachea. At first glance, this situation is the best. No fistula means that there will be no complications such as lung infection caused by things jumping around in the body. At least this is what parents like Hu Hao thought after hearing about their child's illness. They may think it is better for their son to have type I disease.
Medically, this is not the way to think. If you have a fistula, you can just sew it up and make a hole, and then you can get rid of it. If it is like type I, it is a large section of the esophagus that is missing in the middle.
What doctors fear most is that even the best cook cannot cook without the rice.
For example, for a cancer patient, the doctor cuts and cuts the patient. Cutting is easy. But the patient's life depends on the normal functioning of the organs. The organs that are cut off need to be replaced. What can the doctor use to replace them? If there is no replacement, the human body is like a machine that loses its function due to the loss of parts. The body cannot function and cannot survive. Therefore, the fatal part of cancer patients is not that the organs are invaded, but that the organs that are cut off cannot be replaced.
