Chapter 340: Medical treatment, Shen Li's examination results
This news made Shen Yu feel heavy-hearted, and he blamed himself even more.
If he hadn't delayed for so long, how could Ali have missed it?
Because of her previous experience, she was timid and afraid of the dark. Now that she couldn't see, the situation would be even worse. When she couldn't see, he, her brother, was not by her side.
Will Ali resent him as her brother?
With trepidation, Shen Yu followed Uncle Zhang into Shen Li's room.
Chen Li was sitting by the window. When she heard the footsteps, she turned her head with a smile on her face. Although her eyes were looking over here, they were not focused.
Her voice was sweet and clear. "Is that Uncle Zhang? I'm fine. I'll just sit here for a while and I'll be back soon."
Looking at the well-behaved and lovely Chen Li, Uncle Zhang felt very distressed, and walked forward and said excitedly: "Miss, the young master is back."
"My brother is back?"
Chen Li's eyes suddenly lit up, she fumbled with her hands to get up, and walked a little hurriedly, "Really? Where is he?"
Shen Li walked so fast that she almost fell down because she couldn't see clearly. Before she fell, Shen Yu stepped forward in time to support her, "A Li, brother is back."
Shen Li's hand groped on his arm and touched his face. After confirming that it was Shen Yu, she was very happy, "Brother, you are really back."
Probably because she saw her family, the little girl acted a little more coquettishly, "You've been gone for a long time, I thought you forgot about me."
Shen Yu's face was rarely gentle, "How could it be, brother found a doctor for you."
"This is Doctor Lin. She is very capable and will definitely cure you."
When Shen Yu introduced Lin Miaoyin, Lin Miaoyin was also looking at Shen Li.
Chen Li was probably in her twenties, the age when girls begin to blossom with beauty. She had fair skin and a pair of sharp eyes, and was a real beauty.
Although he is blind, his eyes are full of light, and his palm-sized face looks weak, but his temperament is tenacious and unyielding, which makes people like him.
Because of years of illness, her face was pale, her body was weak, and her hands were as thin as chicken claws.
Hearing Shen Yu's introduction, she smiled and walked forward slightly to salute her, "Shen Li's broken body is in need of Dr. Lin."
His manners were correct, his words were appropriate, and there was no resentment of being bedridden in his eyes and brows. Instead, his expression was clear and bright, and his state of mind was extremely peaceful.
Lin Miaoyin had seen many people who had been ill for a long time, some of whom blamed others, some were desperate, and some gave up on themselves, but she rarely met people like Chen Li.
Even though it was a fatal disease, he still faced it with a smile and maintained the best condition.
Thinking of how she had suffered such torture at such a young age, Lin Miaoyin couldn't bear it and softened her voice: "It is the duty of a doctor to cure illnesses and save lives. I will do my best to heal Miss Shen."
Chen Li smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Doctor Lin."
Lin Miaoyin had already seen that Shen Li was in a very bad condition, and said to Shen Yu: "If you don't mind, can you let me do a preliminary examination for Miss Shen?"
"Of course, thank you, Doctor Lin."
Lin Miaoyin's secret of the medical system was not convenient for others to know, so Shen Yu took Uncle Zhang away first. Before leaving, he gently patted Shen Li's hand, "Don't be afraid, listen to Doctor Lin."
Chen Li agreed obediently, "I will listen to Doctor Lin, brother, don't worry."
After everyone had left, Lin Miaoyin stepped forward, held Chen Li's hand, helped her to the bed, and let her lie down again.
Shen Li cooperated throughout the process and did not ask why they did this. She was an extremely obedient and cooperative patient.
Facing such a patient, Lin Miaoyin felt more at ease. As a doctor, she was most afraid of encountering unreasonable patients, and she liked patients like Chen Li very much.
Lin Miaoyin couldn't help but soften her tone and said comfortingly, "Don't be nervous. I will use some instruments to examine you later. I will touch your head and draw blood from your arm with a needle."
"If you feel uncomfortable or anything seems weird, you can always tell me, okay?"
Shen Li nodded, "Okay, thank you, Doctor Lin."
Even though she couldn't see anything, was with a complete stranger, and had to go through all sorts of strange examinations, Chen Li adapted very well.
Seeing that she was not feeling unwell, Lin Miaoyin slowly turned her attention to her brain CT scan, and her expression gradually became serious.
Brain CT showed a rounded, slightly high-density shadow in the sella turcica area of Chen Li, with clear boundaries and uniform density. The shape of the pituitary fossa was poor, indicating a meningioma.
Meningioma grows under the inner plate of the skull, compressing and flattening the finger-like white matter under the gray matter. At the same time, the distance between the compressed white matter and the inner plate of the skull also increases. This phenomenon is called white matter collapse.
Meningioma is the most common primary tumor of the central nervous system, accounting for one-third of all central nervous system tumors.
According to analysis, there are abnormal internal environment and genetic factors in meningioma patients, which play an important role in the changes of human chromosome structure.
After thinking about it, Lin Miaoyin switched to MRI to check whether the tumor was attached to the meninges and growing along the meninges, and to determine whether the tumor was wrapping around important blood vessels and nerves.
In order to obtain comprehensive results, Lin Miaoyin also performed digital subtraction angiography on Chen Li. This would allow her to understand the condition of the tumor more clearly. Basically, she had all the information she needed, except for a biopsy.
Without a biopsy, she didn't know whether Shen Li's tumor was benign or malignant.
Her tumor is now nearly 10 centimeters in size, severely compressing the nerves and blood vessels, and even wrapping up some of the blood vessels and nerves.
In such cases, surgical resection would be a huge challenge.
If it is benign, the tumor will not metastasize after the removal surgery. But if it is a malignant tumor, it will metastasize to other locations even after the surgery. It is just a matter of living a few more years.
Having surgery was not a problem, she didn't know what choice her siblings would make.
Lin Miaoyin called Shen Yu in and told him about Shen Li's situation.
“Mr. Shen, the location and size of Miss Shen’s tumor are not good. If you want to cure Miss Shen, I have two plans.”
"One is the conservative option, which is radiotherapy. It can inhibit the growth of the tumor and keep it in its current state, but it can't last long. It can be delayed as long as possible."
"The other option is surgery. Opening up the brain and removing the tumor is a permanent solution, but the surgery is high-risk, recovery after surgery is not guaranteed, and there is also the risk of infection and death."
“You can discuss it.”
After Lin Miaoyin finished speaking, Shen Yu's face turned pale, his peaceful mask cracked a little, and he fell silent for a while.
He had heard of all kinds of strange operations in the alien system, and had also seen people rip open a person's stomach and sew it up again, but opening the head...
The head and heart are the most important parts of a person. If you make a mistake, the situation will be irreversible.
He had always wanted to cure Chen Li, but when the treatment plan was given, he hesitated.
Chen Li sat quietly, her expression as peaceful as ever, as if the sick person was not herself.
Probably guessing Shen Yu's concerns, she smiled and said, "Brother, let's choose the second option."
Shen Yu looked at his calm sister in front of him, and for the first time he felt powerless, "Are you sure?"
"I am sure."
Chen Li is not very old, but years of illness have already made her mentality extremely mature. She knows what she will suffer and what price she will pay, but so what?
She doesn't want to be a useless person all her life.
When she was a child, her world was just a small room. After her brother took her out, the room was replaced by a yard. She was free, but she was still trapped in this world.
In the past, when doctors examined her, they said that there was no cure and the only thing she could do was wait to die, but waiting to die was not a pleasant feeling at all.
She wanted to struggle to get a different outcome.
Even if the result is death, it is the death she chose.
