The father and daughter stayed in the ward, took a shower first, changed into clean clothes, and were still patched.

The nurse brought two sets of hospital gowns to Xiao Zhangyuan, and the child's father immediately changed them for her, although they were hospital gowns, they were much better than his own clothes.

The nurse also brought them two lunch boxes and some meal tickets, and then took them to the cafeteria and taught them how to cook.

When the meal was two meat and one vegetable, the child's father was moved to tears, he hadn't eaten such a good meal for a long time.

"Daddy, don't cry!" Xiao Zhang Yuan stretched out his little hand to help his father wipe his tears.

"I'm not crying, I'm happy, we've met a good person." The child's father said, smiling innocently.

The next day, Xing Ming came over to take the child for a checkup, and Guo Xiang gave her a good examination and found many problems.

The reason why the child's heart grows on the outside is because the child's sternum is defective, and the defect is as much as ten centimeters.

In addition, there are severe sternal fissures, heart displacement, and various problems such as cardiac right-handed malformation, pericardial hole, diaphragm defect, omphalocele, and abdominal wall defect.

"It's too serious!" Xing Ming shook his head.

"These are still the possibility of surgery." Guo Xiang said.

She remembered that a foreign girl in later generations had a similar disease, called the "Cantrell Quinta", a congenital thoracic syndrome, which is very rare, with a global prevalence of only 5 per million.

But because the little girl's blood pressure problem cannot be operated on, the disease has not been treated, so it depends on other aspects of the child's body.

After another examination, blood draws, and various laboratory tests, there was no big problem with other aspects of the body, and it should be possible to operate.

But who will perform the surgery?

To be honest, Guo Xiang is not sure.

In particular, the child's sternum also has a defect, which requires an expert in orthopedics, and Guo Xiang is not good at it.

In terms of heart, Xing Ming didn't know if he could do it, there were many defects in the heart, and they had to be repaired, which was a delicate and difficult operation.

"I'm not sure either!" Xing Ming said.

"Looks like I've asked for help from another hospital this time." Guo Xiang said.

"If these are completely done, it will not be tens of thousands? 100,000 is possible. Xu Wei said.

It's only the early nineties, and except for entrepreneurs like Guo Xiang, there are really few people who can come up with so much money.

If it's not free, it can be cured, and they can't afford it.

Guo Xiang nodded, since he promised to be free of charge, he would be cured to the end, and now the money of the angel fund, in addition to his own investment, there is also a part of it that was paid by the boss of the Treasure Pavilion at the beginning, and he promised that the money must be used for poor children, so he must do it.

However, this one does cost a lot, others only have a cleft lip and palate for a few hundred yuan, and she is tens of thousands for one person, which is a hundred times that of others.

Of course, since you have come, and you are saved, you naturally cannot see death without salvation.

"I'm going to contact the doctors at Beijing Medical University Hospital to see if I can invite their experts to come over." Guo Xiang said. 88

Originally, she graduated from Beijing Medical University, donated 1 million to her alma mater, interned in Beijing Medical University for two years, and also worked as a doctor in Beijing Medical Cancer Hospital, so she still has some face.

Guo Xiang immediately contacted President Lin of Beijing Medical University, who had asked her to be a teacher at the school and asked her to tell students about some cases.

I told Principal Lin that I had a special case here, and then told him about the child's situation and asked Principal Lin for support.

"You introduced a few cardiology and orthopedic specialists to me, and we will consult together to see if we can do the surgery. Of course, the surgery fee for teachers will not be less, and it will be more than other public hospitals. Guo Xiang said.

Although she also interned at Beijing Medical College before, the doctors in those departments who had not been to the internship were not very familiar, and they still had to be invited by the leaders, after all, they were juniors, and they might not be invited if they went to invite themselves.

"Okay, I'll help you ask." Principal Lin agreed.

In fact, it is common for hospitals to invite doctors to consult each other and help with surgeries, but they are generally carried out privately with private hospitals, but Guo Xiang's hospital is special, she is a high-end general hospital and not those pheasant hospitals, and she was originally out of Beijing Medicine, and her friendship with the school is not shallow, so she is naturally different from others.

Soon, Beijing Medical College sent Dr. Jiang, the best doctor in orthopedics, and Dr. Shen, an expert in cardiac surgery, to come for consultation.

Everyone carefully read all the girl's inspection reports and sat down together to discuss.

"Teacher Jiang, Teacher Shen, what do you think, can this operation be done?" Guo Xiang asked.

"If it's a single aspect of surgery, such as orthopedics, I'm okay with that."

"In terms of heart, I have no problem here, the problem is that this operation has to be performed together, how to do it?"

"I'll do sternal repair surgery first, and when the sternum is established, you can repair the heart, and you can put it back into the chest cavity directly after the repair." Dr. Jiang said.

"Is that okay?" Xing Ming asked.

"Theoretically, yes." Guo Xiang said.

"And how do you repair your sternum?" Xu Wei asked.

"Using her own ribs, she separates the useless ribs and displaces them and sutures them to ......her chest," Dr. Jiang said, "If you use a prosthesis, the rejection reaction will be very large, and the child's heart may not be able to stand it." ”

"In the later stage, you have to take a lot of medicine, and the body has to adapt, which is very troublesome, and it is best to use your own ribs."

"Okay?" Xu Wei looked at Guo Xiang, he was completely unskilled in this regard.

"Yes, theoretically, people have four ribs that play a small role, of course, it is only relative, the ribs play a role in protecting internal organs, but the role is also severe."

"The upper ribs are especially important to protect the heart, chest and lungs, and the lower ribs are responsible for protecting the liver and spleen, and the other ribs are relatively less important."

Of course, it's only relative, in fact, it's all about protecting the internal organs, and no one will take out the ribs for no reason without an accident.

However, in later life, there was a TV series where a girl broke a rib because of a car accident, and later heard that the rib did not play a big role, so she asked the doctor to take out the rib and burn it into ashes, and then use the ashes to make a bone china cup and give it to her boyfriend, saying that it was made of her ribs.

Isn't it panicked to drink water from this kind of cup?

There are also some actresses, because of the pursuit of a slim figure, also took ribs, it is said that the actor Vivien Leigh who played "Gone with the Wind" surgically removed two ribs to achieve a perfect body with a thin waist with breasts.

Of course, these actions are not advisable, but they also prove that it is feasible to take out one or two ribs, and the impact on the body is not very large, let alone in this life-saving situation.
