Chapter 661: Bone marrow suppression
As soon as the elevator door opened, Tao Le understood: this patient must not be an ordinary person.
A group of foreigners packed the narrow corridor, including some fierce black-clad bodyguards.
"Teacher Tao, you're finally here!" Dr. Dong was standing outside the elevator, and his eyes immediately lit up when he saw her.
This "Teacher Tao" was like putting down a piece of meat in front of the wolves, which immediately attracted the attention of the group.
"Doctor Tao?" A woman with short hair and ears and a pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose walked over and stretched out her hand to Tao Le: "I am Mr. Holman agent, you can call me Irene." ”
"Hello Erin." Tao Le politely shook her hand and asked, "Where is the patient?" ”
"In Ward 719." Dr. Dong said on the side.
Erin followed Tao Le's side and said as she walked, "To be honest, I didn't expect you to be so young, Dr. Tao. ”
For questions about age, Tao Le is already auto-immune. Without saying a word, she listened to Erin say:
"Mr. Holman is too special, and it is necessary for me to explain to you the precautions first."
Tao Le's pace slowed slightly.
"Special status? I thought that everyone who lived here had only one identity, and that was the patient. ”
"You're laughing." Erin didn't pay attention to her words, and continued: "He came to Yun City, and all the information related to his condition, please be sure to keep it confidential, and you will need to sign a confidentiality agreement with us later." ”
When Tao Le heard this, he looked at Dong Cheng who was helpless on the side, and when he saw him nodding, he opened his mouth:
"You're saying that everyone who sees you has to sign this agreement?"
"Yes." Erin said it for granted: "To be honest, when Mr. Williams recommended you, I didn't approve of it. If it weren't for Mr. Holman insisting on coming, we wouldn't have been standing here at all. ”
"Now I see the conditions and the environment here." She frowned and covered her nose with her hands, and her disgust overflowed: "I regret not dissuading him in time." ”
Tao Le stopped in front of Ward 719. "You say this to tell us that the patient is not going to be treated in our hospital, but is going elsewhere?"
"I want you to persuade Mr. Holman to persuade her," Erin was halfway through when a voice came out.
"Erin, please come in."
Reluctantly, Erin closed her mouth and pulled the door open.
"Tao Le, why don't you come in quickly, what are you rubbing outside?" Hou Bo, who was standing in front of the hospital bed, said.
He didn't even sweep the corner of his eyes to Erin, and directly stuffed a large stack of reports in A to Tao Le: "Look at it, it's not optimistic, no wonder even those people in the Extraterrestrial Federation want to pick on them." ”
Tao Le took the report and read it carefully.
The patient had multiple hyperbolic and other high-density foci in the left temporal pole, bilateral temporal lobes, right parietal page, and corpus callosum pressure, and was diagnosed with third-grade anaplastic astrocytoma after pathological biopsy in an external hospital.
This malignancy proliferates rapidly and is difficult to completely remove because of multiple lesions.
If that's all it takes, the main problem is that even if you cut it thoroughly, the prognosis is difficult to exceed a year.
On the other hand, if you don't have surgery and you use radiation therapy, you won't have much of a chance to survive.
"So Director, you don't approve of surgery either, but think that radiotherapy is more secure?"
"That's not what I meant." Hou Bo pulled her to the window and whispered, "The patient is still very young, if there is a better treatment, even if it is more radical, I have no opinion." ”
"Besides, he came all the way here just to get a chance to survive. Now in the extra-divine realm, you are the rightful authority. If even you can't do anything about it, then he's really hopeless. ”
Tao Le nodded, and his gaze swept to the patient on the bed.
The patient was really young, and although he had shaved his hair due to a brain tumor and was pale and thin, he was still quite handsome.
He stared at her intently with a pair of sea-blue eyes, his eyes full of desire to survive.
Tao Le has never paid attention to the film and television industry, so he doesn't know anything about the identity of this popular superstar.
She opened the goldfinger, and the interface was a dull red.
Age: 28 years old. Health: 29
Etiology: Multiple astrotic progressive cell tumors (grade 3) 70%, focal radiation injury 18%, bone marrow suppression 12%
Seeing these prompts, Tao Le was full of doubts in his heart.
Only patients who have undergone long-term radiotherapy can suffer radiation damage and even bone marrow suppression.
The so-called bone marrow suppression is one of the main obstacles to tumor chemotherapy and radiotherapy after bone marrow hematopoietic cells are irradiated with radioactive elements, resulting in shorter cell lifespan, decreased peripheral leukocytes, and lower platelets, followed by bone marrow regeneration dysfunction and abnormal hematopoietic function.
Usually, when a patient has severe bone marrow suppression, the drug must be discontinued or radiation therapy must be discontinued.
So the patient in front of him has actually been receiving radiotherapy for a period of time, until he can't support it, so he comes to seek medical treatment?
With this in mind, she looked at the checklist in her hand again, and confirmed that it was from an authoritative medical institution in country R, and the time was last week.
"Mr. Holman." Tao Le asked, "When did you become ill and diagnosed?" ”
"It was last week." Erin spoke quickly and quickly: "After Mr. Holman was diagnosed, we met Mr. Williams the day before yesterday, and he suggested that we come to you directly. ”
"Really?" Tao Le threw the inspection slip to the bedside: "Since you're here, then I'll do everything." Blood cell analysis and bone marrow aspirate are performed immediately, and the results are used to determine whether the surgical conditions are met. ”
These two tests can confirm the diagnosis of myelosuppression. Hou Bo is naturally very clear about this.
He glanced at Holman on the bed quietly, and then instructed Dong Chengdao: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up?" ”
"I disagree!" Erin's voice instantly raised: "Mr. Holman has done too many examinations, his body will not be able to stand it." ”
"Alright Erin." Holman said softly, "Don't you know, Doctor Tao already knows." ”
He looked at Tao Le seriously: "I admit that I hid something from you before. ”
"In fact, as early as five months ago, I went to the doctor with nausea, vomiting and weakness in my legs, and I was diagnosed at that time."
"At that time, I still had two film contracts in my hand, both of which were big productions, whether it was the script, the director and the lineup, they were all luxurious."
"Although the contract was broken due to illness, the other party would not pursue anything, but I still want to leave a few more good works in the last stage of my life."
"So." "So Mr. Holman hid his illness from everyone, and while doing radiotherapy, he insisted on finishing one of the films. ”
