Chapter 208: Chapter 209: Urgent Consultation in Gynecology (Part 2)
Sign the papers…
Sign the papers…
What else can be done other than signing?
Zhang Yue stood there, dispirited and ghastly pale, with a vacant look in his eyes. How did such a good situation come to this!
What exactly happened?
Liu Wenjun’s mother was even scared into tears.
Her tears streamed down continuously.
Their family only had Wenjun as a child, how could she encounter such a problem?
What on earth had happened?
If something really happened to Wenjun… would this family… still be a family?
To speak unpleasantly, Liu Wenjun’s parents only lived for their daughter, and now suddenly, because of childbirth, she was in trouble; they would rather not have this child!
Zhang Yue turned to look at his parents-in-law, took a deep breath, wiped the tears off his face, and walked up steadfastly.
He couldn’t be like this at this moment; he had to shoulder the responsibility of the family, he had to take care of Wenjun’s parents for her!
Even if…
Even if it were…
At this thought, Zhang Yue didn’t even dare to continue.
“Dad, Mom, don’t worry, Wenjun will definitely be alright, please be assured!”
As soon as he said this, Liu’s mother cried even harder, her sobs turning into loud wails.
Zhang Yue, looking at Wenjun’s parents, could no longer hold back and tears flowed down his face: “Mom, please don’t cry, I beg you, I, Zhang Yue, swear, no matter what happens to Wenjun, you will always be my parents for the rest of my life, I will be as filial to you as I am to my own parents.”
Liu Wenjun’s father, seeing the chaos, couldn’t help but say, “Enough, enough, why cry!”
“Isn’t everything all right? You’re just crying and crying. This is a hospital, are you hoping that Wenjun will have problems? Stand properly and wait.”
“Zhang Yue, you’re a young man, a man, and in the future Wenjun’s husband, the child’s father, you can’t cry and wail like your mother. You have to hold up even if the sky falls.”
“Moreover, the doctor said, there is just some danger, the doctors are doing everything they can, informing us is part of our right to know…”
…
Outside the operating room, everyone was eagerly looking at the OR door, waiting silently for good news.
Inside the operating room, however, was a different scene!
Everything was proceeding orderly!
Zhang Jinfen had already taken charge, saying to the patient: “Child, hang in there! It’s going to be okay!”
Liu Wenjun was already crying so much that she couldn’t continue: “Doctor, I also want to, if something happens to me, can you save the baby… ”
Zhang Jinfen smiled: “Silly child, you’re both going to be fine, just a little more effort, just push a little and the baby will be out, the baby is doing fine.”
Liu Wenjun sobbed and nodded: “Yes… yes… I know, ah… it hurts so much, doctor, I’m in so much pain…”
At this moment, Liu Wenjun’s heart was in agony, an emotional torture far worse than the physical pain!
The child must be born.
But her chest hurt so much!
What to do?
Zhang Jinfen couldn’t help but ask the nurse, “Why haven’t the consultants who were just here come yet? Hurry them up, where’s my phone!”
After speaking, Zhang Jinfen held the baby with both hands and encouraged: “Child, I’ll count to three, and we’ll work together!”
Liu Wenjun nodded, and Zhang Jinfen carefully cradled the head, opening the passage…
Two minutes later, Li Baoshan, Tao Zi, Yang Xiaoming, and others filed in and walked into the room.
At this time, the baby was almost born, and Zhang Jinfen continued encouraging: “Hang in there! Child, you’re doing great!”
Zhang Jinfen’s skills were exceptional, and over the years at the Second Provincial Hospital, she had delivered more than a thousand babies.
Liu Wenjun exerted all the strength she had.
She was prepared in her heart to give birth to the child even at the cost of her own life. Before dying, she had to bring the child into this world.
Perhaps, that was a mother’s silly yet very real stubbornness!
…
Time ticked away, second by second.
Every second was agony for Liu Wenjun.
Suddenly, she felt a sense of emptiness!
Only the sound of “wa wa wa… wa” could be heard, and Zhang Jinfen smiled, “Well done, child, you did great! Your baby is out.”
Liu Wenjun suddenly heard this and felt as if she had collapsed.
…
…
After explaining the patient’s condition to everyone, Yang Xiaoming suddenly said, “It’s not related to the respiratory tract; the patient’s breathing is normal. The rapid breathing might have been caused by transient effort-induced respiratory muscle spasm, but now the breathing is very stable.”
Tao Zi shook his head, “Not a heart disease? There’s nothing unusual on the ECG monitoring, and the recent ECG was completely normal too, except for a slightly higher heart rate, so we can basically rule out heart problems!”
Zhang Jinfen looked at Li Baoshan and couldn’t help asking, “Director Li, what condition do you consider it might be?”
Li Baoshan took a deep breath, “Have you guys considered an esophageal tear?”
This statement left everyone bewildered…
Li Baoshan continued, “That is, spontaneous esophageal perforation?”
“This is my guess, after all, the patient’s symptoms are retrosternal pain, tearing in nature, and considering the patient’s generally good health without any medical history.”
“So I’m thinking, could it be because during childbirth, the sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure compressed the stomach, causing a sudden increase in intraluminal pressure in the esophagus? At the same time, the cricopharyngeal muscle reacted with spasm, going into a sort of contracted state, making the pressure inside the esophagus vastly different from that in the thoracic cavity in an instant, leading to esophageal rupture!”
Li Baoshan’s explanation immediately enlightened Zhang Jinfeng!
“Very likely! Such cases have happened before!”
“I’ll call the endoscopy unit right now, get Xiao He to come down and see if it’s an issue with the esophagus.”
…
…
It wasn’t long before Xiao He arrived, pushing the endoscopic examination equipment.
After telling Xiao He all their thoughts, Zhang Jinfeng said, “Director Xiao, we are still concerned it might be a tear in the esophagus!”
A serious esophageal tear was not something that could be delayed; it was a disease that could cost someone their life.
At this time, no one dared to take a breath of relief.
If it was indeed that kind of surgery, they must quickly prepare to either consult a specialist or promptly transfer to another hospital; the operation had to be completed within a short time frame.
If not, they would have to continue investigating to find the cause.
Although the baby was already born, the patient was still not out of danger.
At this moment, they were on the path of searching for the grim reaper.
No one dared to let their guard down…
Time ticked by, second by second.
Everyone was waiting for Xiao He’s examination result. Once the probe was inserted and they saw the image on the TV screen, they were instantly enlightened!
Indeed…
They saw a huge tear inside the esophagus.
At that moment, the truth was clear!
Xiao He’s expression changed, “The tear is too big. I’m worried about excessive contaminants and air getting into the chest cavity during childbirth. Surgery must be conducted quickly, or if it’s delayed, it could become life-threatening for the patient!”
His words placed everyone who had just started to relax back into a state of tension!
Surgery!
Hurry and find someone?
Zhang Jinfen frowned, “Is it possible to transfer her?”
Xiao He shook his head, “There’s no time; the surgery must be done quickly…”
Zhang Jinfen looked at Li Baoshan, her eyes pleading, “Director Li, you know a lot of people, do you know any thoracic surgery experts in the province?”
Li Baoshan nodded, “I know Wei Zhi, the chief of thoracic surgery at the Provincial People’s Hospital. I’ll give him a call and get in touch.”
Li Baoshan, not one to hesitate, decisively dialed the number, “Hello, Director Wei, this is Li Baoshan, here’s the situation…”
“I’m in surgery, right away, an hour, I’ll be there immediately!”
Wei Zhi was already very accommodating; everyone heard it, one hour.
One hour should be alright… right?
Just then, Xiao He suddenly froze, “Director Li, Chen, a doctor from your department, can perform this surgery! Why look for someone else?”
At this, even Li Baoshan was stunned, “Doctor Chen? Chen Bingsheng? He specializes in general surgery. As for thoracic… he seems to be quite average!”
Xiao He shook his head, “Not Chen Bingsheng, it’s Chen Cang, Doctor Chen. He’s very good at esophageal surgeries; I suggest you get Dr. Chen over here now; let’s start preparing for the surgery.”
Li Baoshan’s eyes widened, “Dr. Chen knows how to perform esophageal surgery?”
