Chapter 22: Put your heart in your belly
The topic of the number of ghosts made Sun Lien feel a little chilly in his back, but he was a little more interested in Yao Zhuangxian's ectopic heart than trembling in his heart - at least the ectopic heart would not come out of the wall with a white face and ask for people's lives.
Sun Lien, Zhou Jun and others stood at the door of the observation room to discuss, as for why they didn't enter the observation room, the main reason was that the lethality of snail noodles was too great. is different from the magic version sold outside, the radiologist who is snorting in the observation room today is an authentic native of Liuzhou, Guangxi. The snail noodles sold on the market were processed again by him with the special sour bamboo shoots made at home, and the unique and pungent smell was a hundred times stronger than the ordinary version. If he hadn't been in a hurry to check the patient's condition, Zhou Jun would probably have to turn around and leave. Although as a native of Hunan, Zhou Jun is completely acceptable to the taste of stinky tofu, but the sour bamboo shoots ...... He still couldn't stand it.
The doctor in the imaging department was also very embarrassed, originally thinking that even if an emergency patient came at night, he could just operate in the observation room by himself, but who knew that Sun Lien and Zhou Jun were in a hurry to get the image, so they waited at the door. Especially Zhou Jun, who has been coughing a little recently because he is too worried. The doctor in the imaging department heard Zhou Jun's coughing from time to time, and mistakenly thought that he had been smoked with sour bamboo shoots, and immediately felt even more embarrassed.
In fact, according to the rules and regulations, it is theoretically impossible to eat in several observation rooms and operation rooms of the imaging department. It's just that this rule is basically not followed - in order to facilitate the office, the radiologist's office is set up in the MRI observation room, and they are not allowed to eat in the observation room, so they either go to the canteen with short opening hours, or they can only go to the parking lot with a bowl to squat to solve the problem of eating.
Don't think this kind of thing is rare...... In some hospitals with strict rules, it's not uncommon for radiologists to squat like lost dogs to eat elsewhere. Fortunately, Dean Song was generous, and he didn't care much about this kind of thing, so they had a place to eat with peace of mind.
The radiologist waited apologetically until the image was generated, and then walked out with the film. As he walked, he frowned at the image as if he had seen a ghost.
"How is it?" Zhou Jun looked at the slow-moving radiologist and asked a little anxiously.
"Holy...... radiologist said with his head peeked out from behind the X-ray, with a shocked look on his face, "this man...... No heart!"

X-rays don't show the heart exactly what it looks like, but the dense heart muscle can still leave a blurry white shadow on the X-ray. This shadow is especially noticeable against the lung tissue on both sides.
But on this X-ray, there was nothing to be seen except for a seven-centimeter-long blade inserted directly into the chest.
Not even the shade of white that it should have.
"Huh?" Zhou Jun frowned, "I'll take a look." He snatched the X-ray from the radiologist. After looking carefully for half a minute, his brows furrowed even deeper, "Xiao Zhong, what is the patient's heart rate now?" After the nurse Zhong Yu took the X-ray, she entered the X-ray examination room and assisted the patient to sit back in the wheelchair. After a few seconds, Zhong Yu's voice appeared at the door along with the wheelchair she was pushing, "96 times per minute." โ
"Ectopic heart. Zhou Jun stuffed the X-ray into Sun Lien's hand, "Do a CT scan to take a look." โ
Yao Zhuangxian, who had just come out of the X-ray examination room and was pushed into the CT room next door, asked in a trembling voice, "Doctor, is my problem serious?"
"Serious but not too serious. At least you're okay, aren't you?" Zhou Jun coughed, "Just put your heart in your stomach." Just add another check. โ
Sun Lien raised his eyebrows, although he had heard of this kind of case in class before, but this was the first time he had actually seen a patient with an ectopic heart.
"Is it really okay?" Yao Zhuangxian's voice came out of the CT room, "Doctor, don't lie to me!"
"From the X-rays, the knife didn't hurt your vital organs. Most importantly, it didn't hurt the heart. Sun Lien saw Zhou Jun's eyes and took the initiative to explain the situation. "But in order to get a clear picture of your condition, a CT scan is a must. Rest assured, the results will come out soon. โ
The temperature of the air conditioner in the CT room has never been high, and although Yao Zhuangxian was awakened by the frightened drink, people who have drunk alcohol are more likely to lose their body temperature than usual. Zhong Yu deliberately found a quilt to cover Yao Zhuangxian - of course, the quilt only covered the lower half of his body. With a fruit knife nailed to your chest, it's not practical to cover your upper body with a quilt.
"This ......" There is no smell of snail powder in the CT observation room, Sun Lien and Zhou Jun entered the observation room together, looking at the content displayed on the computer screen, the two of you look at me, I look at you, and I didn't say a word for a long time.
"This man is really ...... Put the heart in the stomach. The radiologist took his mobile phone, took several photos at the screen, and sent the pictures to the WeChat group of the imaging department. "The location...... Below the left lobe of the liver?"
"Ectopic heart thoracoabdominal shape. Zhou Jun made a judgment after looking at it for a while.
As for Sun Lien...... He had only one idea. "This dude...... Don't you feel like you have some heart palpitations when you fart?"
Yao Zhuangxian's heart position is actually not strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as a chest and abdomen shape, judging from the position, his heart ectopic should be abdomen. However, abdominal ectopic heart disease is a very serious congenital heart disease, and most children die due to various complications before the thoracic cavity is fully developed and can be reduced to surgery. Even if there are no serious complications, a hernia in the abdomen, or a noticeable beating mass in the abdomen caused by the heart being squeezed by other organs, are obvious symptoms. Like Yao Zhuangxian, there are no complications and physical symptoms at all, not to mention that Sun Lien has never heard of it, and even Zhou Jun has never heard of it.
"I've seen it for a long time. Zhou Jun looked at the heart hidden under the left lobe of the liver, which obviously occupied part of the small intestine and stomach, as if he had seen a cat with eight legs. Truth be told, the chances of a cat having eight legs are probably greater than having a complete abdominal ectopic without any complications or physical symptoms. As a non-stop moving organ, the heart itself is very susceptible to interference from surrounding tissues. Hemopericardium or fluid can cause the heart to stop, and external impacts can easily cause the heart to not work properly. That's why the heart grows in the "chest" position. There is a whole set of ribs and sternum to protect it, which is much safer than below the right lobe of the liver, which only has the seventh rib.
In short, he didn't have to put his heart up to his throat so hard. Sun Lien said a joke that was not very funny, "Please consult with the outside of the chest and outside the heart? Take out the knife outside the chest to see the damage, and then let the outside of the heart prepare for the reduction operation?"
"Please chest first. Zhou Jun thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, this patient may not choose to have this operation in our hospital." โ
