Finally, Zuo Li slowly withdrew his hand from the old chief's hand, but did not speak.

The old chief said: "Before the Chinese New Year this year, I only asked your master Yang Tianbao to check my body, but he didn't find out that I had a tumor in my stomach, and it looks like I'm out of sight." Now that your hospital has checked it out with modern equipment, you now know that I have a tumor in my body, but to be honest, if you don't know the test results, can you feel the tumor just by feeling the pulse? ”

Zuo Li shook his head and said seriously: "I didn't touch it." ”

The old chief smiled: "You are very honest, if you can't touch it, you can't touch it, don't talk nonsense, don't be hypocritical, that's good." Seeking truth from facts is our heirloom, and it is also the basis for our continuous victories, and you can be realistic, very good. ”

Zuo Li shook his head: "Chief, I'm not saying that I don't have the ability to feel the tumor. I mean, you don't have a tumor on you at all, so I can't touch it, not that there's a tumor that I didn't feel. ”

The old chief was stunned for a moment, then laughed, turned his head and said to his wife: "Listen, this Yang Tianbao's tall feet are going around and saying tongue twisters!" Interesting. - It's not that he can't feel the tumor, but he can't feel the tumor because he doesn't have it. It took a detour to understand what he was talking about. ”

The chief's wife didn't smile, but said with a straight face, "It's time for you to rest." ”

Squinted at Zuo Li again, and said, "Doctor Zuo, Doctor Sun, and the others are still waiting for you outside!" ”

The chief's wife gave the order to evict the guest, Zuo Li could only stand up and said to the old chief sincerely: "Chief, I suggest you do a needle biopsy, and you know that I am not wrong." ”

The chief's wife raised her voice: "We have already discussed this issue, don't talk about it anymore. - Doctor Zuo, the chief needs to rest now! ”

Zuo Li didn't speak again, and walked away.

The chief's wife closed the door angrily and shouted at the door: "If you can't touch it, you can't touch it, what else are you talking about?" Could it be that B-ultrasound is blind, and you are a piece of gold? Opinionated! ”

"Don't say that! He's still young, he needs to be tempered, who will be born with it? You just spoke too harshly, it's not good......"

"What's wrong? This kind of self-righteous so-called newborn calf has to be hammered hard, otherwise he will think that he is the boss in the world. The next time I see his master Yang Tianbao, I will talk about him in person. ”

The old chief smiled helplessly, changed the topic and said, "By the way, has the treatment plan been decided?" ”

"The general policy has been determined, surgical laparotomy and exploration, and tumor resection at the same time, whether benign or malignant, must be removed. The chief knife is Director Sun Taosun. I heard that he was the first surgeon in the three hospitals, and he was a powerful surgeon, so I was relieved that such a person was the main surgeon. ”

The old chief nodded and patted his stomach: "Rong Ma has been fighting all his life, when he fought bloodily in southern Xinjiang, so many comrades-in-arms died by his side, my life is big, I have never been shot, and now I am old, but I have to be stabbed by a doctor in my stomach, alas!" This is the life, the life of a soldier. - A soldier is to shed blood, and if he doesn't bleed, he won't be called a soldier! ”

Speaking of which, he laughed self-deprecatingly.

The chief's wife said angrily: "The operation is to treat you, is that the same thing as being shot in a bloody battle?" ”

The old chief turned his head to look at his wife: "The tumor in my stomach, benign or malignant, should have already had results, right?" You tell me the truth - it doesn't matter, when the enemy's hand ** exploded next to me, I didn't die, this life was picked up, and it was already earned to live until now. It doesn't matter if it's cancer, revolutionary soldiers have long seen through life and death, isn't it just to die early? Nothing, say it! ”

The chief's wife complained: "What nonsense! When did I lie to you? I don't know if I didn't do a puncture, but the B ultrasound should be benign, let him be benign and malignant, just remove it, everything is fine! ”

"Hey, that's right, that's it, ignorant and ignorant on the operating table, the ignorant are fearless, don't be afraid of death, hehe."

Zuo Li returned to the conference room, and the eyes of several people looked at him.

Chen Tianming asked, "How is it?" No problem, right? ”

Zuo Li shook his head: "I just checked the pulse of the old chief, but I didn't feel the tumor." I don't think the lump in the colon of the old chief is not a tumor, so I recommend a surgical puncture to further diagnose the diagnosis. ”

Sun Tao looked like a kind old man teaching earnestly: "Doctor Zuo, you have to believe in science." Western medical examination is an instrument, and the instrument examination will not be emotional, one is one, and the other is two. There are too many subjective factors in your TCM pulse cutting, and the results of the high-tech instruments are absolutely reliable and there will be no problems. - Don't talk about this, the chief's wife asks for surgery as soon as possible, let's quickly come up with the operation plan and report it to Dean Gu for approval. The chief's wife repeatedly emphasized that the sooner the operation, the better. ”

Jiang Feng also nodded and said, "Yes, let's go back and discuss the specific surgical plan, and strive for surgery tomorrow morning." ”

With that, they left the veteran cadre medical center.

Chen Tianming and Zuo Li deliberately fell behind.

Chen Tianming asked Zuo Li: "You really didn't feel the tumor?" ”

"Yes, whether there is a tumor in the patient's body, the feeling under the finger of the pulse is different, and I have not felt the pulse that the tumor should have."

"But the ultrasound shows that there is indeed a lump."

Zuo Li said: "So I'm also confused, and I don't know what's going on. But I trust my judgment. So far, I've never missed a pulse cut, and while I'm not particularly precise with my touch, it's generally not wrong. For example, I can find out whether the tumor is in the patient's body, but of course I can't find out whether the tumor is benign or malignant. ”

Chen Tianming smiled and said, "Even you said it yourself, you are not completely sure, which means that you should be mistaken." ”

Zuo Li shook his head, but did not explain again.

They returned to the inpatient building, and while waiting for the elevator, Chen Tianming asked, "Let's go, let's discuss the surgical plan together." ”

Zuo Li smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm not good at surgery, so I won't participate." However, when you report to Dean Gu after you have formulated the surgical plan, I hope you can tell the Dean what I just judged. ”

Chen Tianming nodded: "Okay, I will definitely tell the dean." However, the needle biopsy was rejected last time, and I estimate that this time it will not be agreed by Dean Gu and the chief's wife. ”

Sure enough, when he got off work, Chen Tianming called Zuo Li: "The surgical plan has been approved by Dean Gu, and you are required to do a good job of postoperative Chinese medicine conditioning, but if it is malignant, radiotherapy and chemotherapy will be transferred to the military hospital for treatment." We are only responsible for the TCM conditioning in the past few days after the operation. The dean just asks you to be prepared for this. ”

"I also said what you asked me to convey. Dean Gu attached great importance to it, and immediately called the chief's wife in person to communicate, and personally proposed a needle biopsy, but the chief's wife refused, and asked for surgery as soon as possible, and no later than tomorrow morning. Therefore, it is only possible to perform surgery and open laparotomy. The surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning. ”

Zuo Li smiled helplessly: "I understand, the main knife is still Sun Tao, right?" ”

"Yes."

"That's better."

"Why do you say that?"

"Nothing."

Zuo Li didn't explain, he was actually worried about letting Chen Tianming take the knife, and according to his own judgment, the patient's colon was not a tumor at all, and at that time, the chief was stabbed in vain, which would be troublesome. Since it's not Chen Tianming, it's better.
