This is also why doctors always emphasize to patients the importance of postoperative follow-up and long-term medication.
"Have you found it?" Since he couldn't keep up with the pace of the operation, Lin Chenrong had to ask her about the result again.
"There are three."
What!?
The onlookers suddenly realized that the one who actually threw the bomb among them and blew them up might not be the surgeon but her classmate Xie. "You said three?" Lin Chenrong raised his fingers and counted to three, not quite believing his ears that could hear the numbers, and asked her. He didn't see any one, okay. In the end, she said three.
"Yes, three." Xie Wanying said with certainty.
"Three in a row?"
"No, two of them are closer, and the other one is farther away." Xie Wanying said.
Three, so many, this situation may be beyond the preoperative estimate of the neurosurgery department. Lin Chenrong and the others saw that the doctors in the neurosurgery department were all silent.
...
...
A cardiologist might express surprise at the number of three.
For neurosurgeons, this disease is not unfamiliar and there is no need to be surprised.
Multiple intracranial aneurysms (MIA) are not uncommon in clinical practice. They account for an average of more than 20% of the overall incidence of intracranial aneurysms. The most common age group is Dr. Hu's age. Female patients are 3.5 times more likely to be male patients, and some patients have high blood pressure. If you think about it carefully, it is not too surprising that this patient was diagnosed with such a result.
What makes neurosurgeons silent is probably how to treat this disease.
The clinical treatment principle for MIA is that it is best to treat as many tumors as possible at one time and avoid secondary surgery as much as possible.
Why must we treat it all at once? Because the causes of MIA are congenital and acquired factors, but congenital factors account for a larger proportion. It can be said that the so-called aneurysm is an abnormal bulge caused by congenital defects in the arterial wall. In this case, the aneurysm that causes clinical symptoms is often found after the patient grows for many years. When the aneurysm is found, it is about to burst or has already burst.
This means that most of these tumors will grow larger over time, and when they grow to a certain size, they will explode and endanger the patient's life. In the past, patients had no symptoms before the onset of the disease, and ordinary daily physical examinations could not detect it, so it was not treated without knowing it. If it was known, it must be treated as early as possible to avoid the inevitable explosion.
Can neurointerventional surgery remove several tumors at once? Cardiologists are not experts and do not know much about it.
Lin Chenrong walked back to Jin Tianyu and whispered, "The neurosurgeon is not talking. Are you considering switching to a craniotomy?"
I don't understand the workings of neurosurgery, so I can only observe the expressions of my colleagues in neurosurgery. My colleagues are silent and have serious expressions, which means that it is very likely that the case cannot be handled in the interventional surgery room, and it is possible that it will be converted to a craniotomy.
Jin Tianyu folded his hands across his chest.
I saw Deputy Director Lu pick up his phone and seemed to be contacting the operating room and the anesthesiologist on the third floor.
However, the person who can make the final decision is not this person but Cao Yong.
There was another great expert sent by another institute, but Director Zhai remained silent.
In short, you can wait and see whether the surgeon in the operating room has the next step. If so, it means that the neurosurgery department will continue to attempt interventional surgery.
