Chapter 93 Parasitic
Seeing Gao Jun's anxious face, Zhao Heng can actually understand it. After all, not everyone in the anesthesiology department admires Gao Jun. Wen Shen's support for Gao Jun is something that everyone can see inner.

"Teacher, after investigation, I found that this patient had a history of living in Dali a month ago, and an original snack was popular in Dali. The patient's cerebral edema may be related to this."

Zhao Heng said slowly.

"History of living in Dali? Original snacks?"

When Zhao Heng said this, Gao Jun was at a loss. He couldn't imagine any connection between these few things.

"Old Gao, raw hide is raw pork."

Seeing Gao Jun's confused look, Xu Manni couldn't help explaining.

If you haven't traveled there, you really won't know this kind of local snack.

"Huh? Raw pork? Can raw pork be eaten directly?"

Gao Jun was shocked. He had only heard of eating sashimi and raw beef, but had never heard of eating raw pork. Regardless of whether it was hygienic or unhygienic, pork, a white meat, is not suitable for eating raw, and the taste will not be good, right? !
"It's okay to eat the specially selected pigs raw."

Xu Manni thought for a while and said.

The raw hides and pigs used by the Bai people in Dali have to be specially selected.

"You mean to say that this patient has Taenia solium?"

Gao Jun's clinical experience is very rich. When Zhao Heng and Xu Manni said this, he immediately reacted.

"Well, teacher, this patient's cerebral edema is likely to be caused by the parasitic solium in the brain. Under anesthesia, the body will fall into a semi-dormant state, and the solium will start to move, and the secretion products directly lead to cerebral edema. happened."

Zhao Heng nodded and said.

"The situation you are talking about is extremely rare, but it is not impossible."

Hearing what Zhao Heng said, Gao Jun thought for a while and said slowly.

To do clinical work, you must have bold assumptions and careful proof-seeking thinking.

"Isn't it? Just do a test and you'll know."

Xu Manni said.

"Well, it's like this, Xiao Zhao, let's go now, let's go find Old Wen."

Just do what you say, Gao Jun said very simply.

Just like that, Zhao Heng and Gao Jun came to the ICU again.

At the gate of the ICU, a lot of people gathered at some point, and they seemed to be looking for trouble.

The entrance of such a huge ICU looks like a vegetable market.

Seeing this, Zhao Heng shook his head slightly, and walked in with Gao Jun.

Wen Shen still stayed in front of the patient's bed and did not leave for a moment, but his face was gloomy and his heart was extremely heavy. He couldn't accept why a normal preoperative anesthesia had developed into what it is today.

Seeing Zhao Heng and Gao Jun coming, Wen Shen just nodded. At this moment, he didn't even have the energy to say hello.

"Old Wen, Xiao Zhao has found the possible cause of the patient's cerebral edema."

As soon as Gao Jun came, he said directly.

"what?!"

Hearing Gao Jun's words, Wen Shen stood up suddenly, and because he was too anxious, he knocked over the chair and made a loud bang.

"Have you found the reason?!"

Wen Shen stepped up to Zhao Heng in two steps, pulled him and asked anxiously.

"Well, Teacher Wen, after investigation, I found that this patient had a history of living in Dali a month ago. On her Weibo, I found a photo of the patient suspected of eating raw skin, a local snack in Dali, that is, raw pork. So, there is a reason It is suspected that the cerebral edema in this patient is probably caused by the parasitic brain of Taenia solium."

Zhao Heng explained what happened to him in a simple and smooth manner.

"Rawhide? Raw pork? Pork tapeworm?"

Hearing Zhao Heng's words, Wen Shen kept repeating these words, his brain started to work rapidly, and he seemed to be full of energy all of a sudden, which was completely different from the gloomy state just now.

After a while, Wen Shen suddenly took out the patient's medical record, turned to a page, read it carefully, then raised his head, and said with bright eyes: "By the way, I just said that the blood eosinophils of this patient How can the cells rise for no reason, it must be caused by the parasitism of Taenia solium."

"Get tested, do a DNA dot blot test now!"

Wen Shen said to himself again.

Soon, Wen Shen took a sample of the female Internet celebrity, and the sample was sent to the laboratory through the fast track.

It would take at least an hour for the test results to come out. Zhao Heng, Gao Jun, and Wen Shen were in the ICU office together, waiting for the test results.

"Xiao Zhao, how did you think that the patient might be infected with solium?"

While waiting for the test results, Wen Shen asked his doubts.

Wen Shencai was very excited just now, and calmed down, and Wen Shen was very curious about Zhao Heng's discovery that the patient's brain might be infected by solium.

After all, the patient’s operation was a conventional silicone filling operation, and the anesthesia was only routine. If he didn’t wake up after the operation, it would be strange enough to have cerebral edema. No matter from which angle, it is impossible to think that the patient’s brain was infected with pork tapeworm. caused.

In order to find the real cause of the patient's cerebral edema and prove that there was no problem with Wen Shen's anesthesia operation, the chief experts of each department of the hospital had intensive consultations, but none were found.

Then why did Zhao Heng find out?

This is where Wen Shen felt very curious.

When Wen Shen asked, Gao Jun also looked at Zhao Heng very curiously.

"It's like this. Since the experts from all departments of the hospital will have examined them, all the tests that should be done have also been done. I don't think it is necessary to increase the test items from this aspect. Besides, I don't think my The level can exceed that of various experts. Therefore, I want to learn about this patient from other aspects and see if I can find something.”

"Then, I found the patient's Weibo and found out that her patient had a history of living in Dali and ate local snacks such as raw hides. This reminded me of a case of cerebral edema caused by the parasitic brain of Taenia solium."

Zhao Heng explained the process of his discovery in an orderly manner.

"Xiao Zhao, you are a true genius with clinical thinking."

Hearing Zhao Heng's words, Wen Shen thought for a while, then looked at Zhao Heng seriously and said.

It is extremely rare that Taenia solium parasitizes the brain and causes cerebral edema. If Zhao Heng hadn't investigated the patient thoroughly, it would have been impossible to find out.

Given the patient's current critical condition, maybe the real reason will have to wait for a future autopsy to find out.

But whether it can be found is still another matter.

Therefore, Zhao Heng's discovery directly saved Wen Shen's career.

"Old Gao, you have found a good student."

Wen Shen sighed again. At this moment, he finally understood why Gao Jun, who had never taken a student with him for so many years, made an exception to take Zhao Heng with him and treated him so well.

If he had such a student, he might be even more precious than Gao Jun!

 Looks great, highly recommend.
