Chapter 295: Orphans, Deformities
Veronica is a big financier, not to mention Talia, Zhou Qiao's new baby, so in his free time, Zhou Qiao accompanies these two girls to eat, drink and have fun in San Francisco.
Zhou Qiao is mixed up now, and he can also say that he has done his best to be a landlord.
Because his roots are here, and Talia and Veronica are both "outsiders" and usually spend a lot of time in Hollywood.
Jenna was on strike anyway, and she was idle, so she also rushed over and focused on a rubbing meal.
On the weekend, Zhou Qiao rented a yacht and took a few girls to the sea.
Elena, Ava, Murphy, Stephanie, Taria, Veronica, Jenner, Park so-joo and Yoona join in.
All bikinis, confusing figures, he is the only man on the boat, Zhou Qiao took a video, and suddenly felt like a world away, is this still the self from two years ago? That poor boy who has just graduated and is worried about the future?
The circumstances of life are wonderful.
Play and play, Zhou Qiao is still very serious when he works.
Veronica had another patient brought in, a little girl.
As Veronica, she wants to do charity, that is, to contribute money, as for the trivial matter of finding patients, she is happy and free, and she will participate in it, and when she is not free, she naturally has a team under her hand to do it.
Governor Hulk has countless industries, and he is the lord of a state in California, so let the people below cooperate, which is a matter of one sentence.
The team will look for the right poor person, summarize the information and send it to Veronica's mailbox, and Veronica will select the patients and send them to Zhou Qiao in turn.
……
The little girl is an orphan who has been abandoned since childhood. Because she's ugly.
Her name is Mia, she has no last name, and no one knows who her parents are.
It doesn't matter if you have a surname or not, it's nice to have a random name.
For most people from ordinary families, a name is just a code name.
According to the director of the orphanage, six years ago, one of their staff members heard a cry in the trash can outside, so he ran to check on it, and then saw the poor child.
Afterwards, he carried her back to the orphanage.
Mia was born with a cleft lip and palate and a nasal deformity. That's how it is at birth. Some say that his mother may have been a homeless person.
When a homeless person is pregnant, it is impossible to have regular prenatal check-ups, so it is naturally impossible to detect congenital malformations.
However, her poor life experience also allowed her to be born smoothly and come to this world safely. It's not easy.
But, for Mia, the world is not worth it.
Many children of the same age are treasures at home, with all kinds of snacks, toys, and kindergartens to go to. And what about Mia? Nothing.
I'm very lucky to be alive!
And now, praise Veronica's kindness, praise Zhou Qiao's superb medical skills, and the time has come to change your fate!
The preoperative examination was arranged, and fortunately, Miya was in good condition and could be operated.
Mia is ignorant, cowardly and weak, but she can still distinguish between good and bad people, when she sees Veronica, Talia, Zhou Qiao, Elena, their little eyes are dripping, revealing a little smart, close and happy.
She felt that she must have met the legendary angel.
The place where I live these days is very good, and the food and drink are something I have never seen before.
In fact, it is the ordinary ward of the community hospital, and some ordinary meals, because she is a child, she deliberately added some desserts and snacks after meals, such as delicious chocolates.
But this kind of accommodation in a metropolitan hospital is really "luxurious" compared to that remote orphanage.
It's like a child from a poor rural family going to a big city to live in a room in a fast chain hotel. An ordinary KFC meal is also equivalent to eating a big meal.
The Iris Clinic is actually famous for medical aesthetics, and surgical plastic surgery is Zhou Qiao's specialty.
He assessed Miya's face shape, and said to his assistants Murphy and Stephanie: "Actually, the little girl has a very good foundation, if these two deformities are repaired, and then dress up, she will definitely be a beauty when she grows up." ”
"Indeed." Murphy and Stephanie both nodded in agreement. Both of them can see it, and it is obvious that Miya's foundation is really good.
Since Veronica is doing charity and has some publicity purposes, she naturally found professional photographers and reporters to follow up and report.
After the preoperative preparation is completed, the surgery begins.
Still in a community hospital.
Because of this kind of surgery, there is no need for the Prometheus-3000 surgical robot, and the operating room conditions of the community hospital also meet the requirements, which is a little cheaper here.
Miya has a cleft lip and nasal deformity, which is a congenital cosmetic defect syndrome, and it is secondary, which seriously affects her growth and future mental health.
If this continues, when she grows up, she will definitely have extremely low self-esteem.
Orphans, two deformities, such a start, how does a girl face this society?
Even now in the orphanage, she is often bullied by other orphans because of her appearance. Even some of the nuns cast disgusted glances at her and had a fierce attitude.
The orphanage she was in was run by a church, but who said there were no bad people in the church?
There was once a documentary "The Smile of Zaxika", which told the story of a family with cleft lip and palate, during which the joys and tears touched countless people, but people like Miya were definitely worse than the son of Ren Doji in the documentary.
Fortunately, Lady Luck has arrived.
The medical community is still not fully aware of the formation mechanism of cleft lip nasal deformity, and most scholars believe that abnormal nasal cartilage anatomy, imbalance of muscle motility, and abnormal jaw development are important pathogenic factors. But there are other different points of view.
As for the correction time of cleft lip and nasal deformity, there is also great controversy.
There are two theories: one is to repair just after birth, which mainly meets the psychological needs of the child's parents. However, for children, the local tissue is not fully developed, and surgery is done in a hurry, and the deformity will be more serious in the later stage.
The second is to repair before the school year. The local tissue volume of the child was sufficient, and the changes to the later deformity were small. Miya is just the right age.
There is another one, fetal repair, but it is still in the exploration stage, and the operation is not yet mature. Because fetal repair requires operation through the mother's body, the difficulty and risk are high, which can be imagined.
This kind of surgery is usually staged, such as only repairing the cleft lip in the first stage, and avoiding the nasal deformity as much as possible; The second stage is around 12 years old, and the cleft lip redeformity and nasal deformity are repaired at the same time; The third stage is usually around 18 years of age, and the residual deformity is repaired.
This is based on the anatomical and physiological characteristics of cleft lip and nasal deformity and the physiological basis of the non-synchronous growth of scars and normal tissues during the growth and development period.
But Zhou Qiao's purpose and level can enable him to complete it in one phase.
It's still the old team, Joe Zhou, Murphy, Stephanie, Elena, Ava, Nancy and their anesthesia team.
Zhou Qiao's first was nasal alar reconstruction.
Make a nostril edge incision, i.e., an arc-shaped incision along the upper inner edge of the nostril on the affected side.
After the skin is incised, the skin of the alar of the nose is pulled away with a single hook and carefully peeled off with small scissors to expose the entire dorsal side of the pterygoid cartilage on the affected side and the medial foot of the pterygoid cartilage on the unaffected side.
Suturing cartilage ......
This kind of plastic surgery, in addition to the operation skills, the core is the "Delska" produced by Qiaoya Biomedical Group, an epoch-making new drug that is traceless and can promote healing.
Of course, the price is also very expensive.
After the sutures are done, the incision is closed.
The skin nostril incision is closed with 3-0 sutures intermittently, and then the layers of the cleft lip are sutured.
Here are some important points to note, such as being careful not to penetrate the skin when peeling off the cartilage of the greater wing; The skin incision at the edge of the nostril should be slightly medial to conceal the scar; The cartilage of the greater wing on the affected side should be fully exposed, otherwise cartilage reduction will be affected. The pterygoid cartilage is only separated from its back, and it should not be peeled between the medial side and the mucosa, otherwise it will affect local blood circulation, and so on.
Time passed unconsciously, and the operation came to an end, and Zhou Qiao filled both nostrils of Xiao Ya with rubber tubes wrapped in petroleum jelly and iodoform gauze.
This rubber pipe is fixed, just like building a house and pouring concrete, and the plywood is not easy to remove before the concrete is completely solidified.
……
On the third postoperative day, the stitches were removed.
Many people are surprised, do you remove the stitches on the third day? Why don't you keep waiting, try again on the fifth or sixth day?
In fact, with the secret medicine of "Delska", and Zhou Qiao's ceiling-level level, it is not a problem to remove the stitches in three days.
Veronica brought reporters, and Talia and Jenna also came to cheer. Because of the presence of Talia, a big star, the scene is very popular. Many doctors, nurses, and even patients and family members from the community hospital came to see the excitement.
Miya is very nervous in the face of so many people and cameras, young and ignorant.
She regretted it a little, she shouldn't have said that it was itchy when the beautiful big sister was doing rounds yesterday.
The beautiful big sister said that the itch is that the wound is healing, and it has almost healed, so she arranged to remove the stitches today.
She said in her heart, if she endures it and doesn't say itchy, maybe she can remove the stitches a few days later?
Perhaps, you can stay in such a comfortable and beautiful place for a few more days?
But after all, she was young. There is no decision.
In any case, the stitches have to be removed.
Park Xiuzhu gently uncovered the gauze, layer by layer, and removed the thread, and everyone couldn't help but be in an uproar.
Because, very, very "delicate" mouth and nose shape!
If you ignore the faint scars on it that have not completely disappeared, and then raise it white, it can definitely be called a beautiful embryo.
Zhou Qiao motioned to everyone to be calm, because the rubber tube had not been pulled out yet.
Now it's supported by a rubber tube, which is certainly good-looking.
As soon as he explained this, everyone couldn't help but get nervous again.
After working on it for a long time, it turned out that there was a rubber tube inside. If it is pulled, will the nose collapse immediately?
Some timid people are afraid to continue watching.
Zhou Qiao smiled slightly, and said in his heart, how could there be a problem with the surgery I did, I just teased you.
He slowly pulled out the rubber tube, and sure enough, there was nothing unusual about Miya's nose.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then they were shocked to see that Dr. Zhou Qiaozhou actually boldly reached out to pinch Xiao Ya's nose.
Oh my God, this pinch, it shouldn't have exploded all at once, right?
Obviously, their worries were unfounded.
Miya let out a soft "um~" and felt the pain, but her nose was still fine.
Q bomb, energetic, vigorous.
Everyone exclaimed again and applauded.
Anyone can see that the operation was a real success.
"Milk!" Talia waved her little pink fist, happy for Zhou Qiao.
