Doctor: I picked up attributes in the hospital

Chapter 216 Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor-Extremely Malignant!
Zhao Heng looked at the girl lying on the transfer bed with her right eyeball protruding to the size of a papaya, and asked the girl's father, the middle-aged uncle, "How long has she been like this?"

"Doctor, it's been a month."

The middle-aged uncle said.

"One month?"

Hearing the uncle's answer, Zhao Heng was a little surprised. For such a large tumor, Zhao Heng thought it had been developed for at least a year, but he didn't expect it to be only a month.

Generally speaking, a tumor that grows to such a large size in a month is very malignant. Zhao Heng has a bad feeling at this time.

"What was it like in the beginning?"

Zhao Heng continued to ask.

"Doctor, at first Miaomiao said her eyes were itchy, so I took her to the hospital. The doctor prescribed eye drops, and I dripped them when I came back. The next day, Miaomiao's eyes were swollen."

The middle-aged uncle said.

"How big was the swelling that day?"

Zhao Heng thought for a while and asked.

"That is to say, it looks a little swollen, yes, and a little red."

The middle-aged uncle said.

"When did it grow so big?"

Zhao Heng continued to ask.

"It's only been about two weeks, and I haven't grown much since then."

The middle-aged uncle thought for a while and said.

"Two weeks..."

Hearing this, Zhao Heng had a bad feeling.

"Are you sure, after two weeks, it won't grow any bigger?"

Zhao Heng asked again.

"Yes, doctor."

Uncle nodded.

Hearing this, Zhao Heng's expression suddenly became solemn.

It only took two weeks to grow to the size of a papaya, which showed that the tumor was growing very fast. The tumor stopped growing after two weeks.

This is absolutely abnormal. Although the tumor does not seem to be getting bigger, it does not mean that the tumor has stopped growing. It has stopped growing outward and turned to grow inside the brain.

Thinking of this, Zhao Heng felt very tricky.

If it's just a tumor outside the orbit, then after the operation, at most one eye will be lost. Although the girl lost one eye, she can still lead a normal life.

But if the tumor grows into the brain, with such a rapid growth rate of the tumor, Zhao Heng dare not imagine how much brain tissue the tumor cells have already invaded.

"Doctor, Miaomiao her...?"

Seeing Zhao Heng's dignified expression, the middle-aged uncle couldn't help asking a little nervously.

At this moment, his mood was like waiting to be sentenced to death.

"Don't worry, since you have brought her here, I believe the doctors in the hospital have told you a lot. No matter what, try your best."

Zhao Heng deliberated about his words and said.

Regarding the girl's condition, Zhao Heng could only say that he tried his best.

After all, there are various indications that the tumor on this girl's body is extremely malignant. Generally speaking, for a tumor with such a high degree of malignancy, it takes at most three months for the patient to die.

"Then ask the doctor."

The middle-aged uncle's eyes dimmed, and he continued.

The previous doctors basically shook their heads without even saying try.

In Zhao Heng's case, if he could try his best, he already felt hopeful.

"Do the basic examination first, and when the results of the examination come out, there will be a consultation. After the consultation, I will tell you the specific situation."

Zhao Heng thought for a while and said that although he has acquired some skills in terms of tumors, he is still not as professional as the oncology department. He should wait for the test results first, and then call the oncology department for consultation.

It just so happens that the relationship between Zhao Heng and the oncology department is quite good now.

"Okay, okay."

The middle-aged uncle nodded repeatedly.

Next, Zhao Heng ordered an examination, and Tian Zhen accompanied the uncle and the girl to do the examination.

Three in the afternoon.

All the test results of the girl came back.

"Doctor, how is Miaomiao?"

The uncle looked at Zhao Heng who was looking at the test results, and asked a little nervously.

"The situation is not very good, you take a rest first, and I will tell you the result after the consultation."

Zhao Heng said to the middle-aged uncle.

"Thank you doctor."

The middle-aged uncle nodded and walked out of the office helplessly.

"Doctor Zhao, is the situation really bad?"

Tian Zhen who was standing beside him couldn't help asking.

This girl is only 12 years old, exactly the same age as Hua. It would be a pity if her life withered so early.

"It's too vicious."

Zhao Heng shook his head slightly.

"Please ask Li Haiyang from the oncology department for consultation."

After a pause, Zhao Heng said to Tian Zhen again.

"it is good."

Tian Zhen nodded and went out to make a phone call.

Ten minutes later, Li Haiyang walked in from outside the office.

Before coming in, Tian Zhen had already shown him the girl.

"Doctor Li, the film is here, you can take a look first."

Zhao Heng said to Li Haiyang that with his current relationship with Li Haiyang, there was no need to say so many polite words.

"okay."

Li Haiyang nodded solemnly. Before he came in, he had already seen the girl.

To be honest, it was the first time he saw a tumor like this in the oncology department for so many years.

Li Haiyang stared at the film for a while, thought for a while, and then said slowly with a solemn expression: "This is a very rare and extremely malignant primitive neuroectodermal tumor. See you for the first time."

"Primitive neuroectodermal tumor?"

Hearing Li Haiyang's words, Zhao Heng immediately understood that it turned out to be such a rare malignant tumor, no wonder he didn't have any experience in picking up fusion.

"Primitive neuroectodermal tumor is a relatively rare and highly malignant tumor of the nervous system. It is a relatively primitive tumor of the nerve and its derivatives. It is mainly produced by the primitive neuroepithelium and has the potential for multilineage differentiation. Primitive neuroectodermal tumors are often invasive. Sexual growth can spread widely in cerebrospinal fluid, and the prognosis of patients is often poor."

"This patient's condition is a peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumor. The tumor often grows rapidly and has a relatively high degree of malignancy. Multiple metastases may occur in the early stage."

Li Haiyang explained.

"Is surgery possible?"

Zhao Heng asked Li Haiyang.

"Doctor Zhao, look here. The patient's tumor has grown inward from the eye socket and has reached the brain tissue, and the degree of infiltration is already very deep. In this case, the prognosis of surgery may not be very good."

Li Haiyang pointed to a high-density shadow on the brain MRI film, shook his head slightly and said.

"However, the patient's tumor has grown so large that it not only occupies the entire orbit, but also grows outward. Without surgery, the tumor cannot be shrunk by chemotherapy or radiotherapy alone."

Zhao Heng thought for a while and said.

He understood what Li Haiyang meant. The tumor on this girl's body was extremely malignant, and the survival period would have been very short even if she had no surgery.

If you rely on radiotherapy or chemotherapy, you may be able to prolong your survival period for a while.
