Chapter 725: Chapter 335: Dual Tumors, Another Warm Little Family Takes Shape

In this case, if there is indeed a problem in the patient’s ileum, a vibrant life might soon be taken by colon cancer.

She couldn’t bear it in her heart, and would feel guilty and regretful for life.

Doctors are accustomed to seeing life and death, but it doesn’t mean they are really cold-hearted.

"Let’s check! Be extremely careful!"

After a brief consideration, Xiao Linlin finally agreed to let Li Jingsheng continue to investigate.

"Alright!"

Li Jingsheng showed a delighted smile.

It’s not that he hoped for the patient to have a condition, but having already diagnosed a possible issue, he felt he owed it to the patient if not investigated. He would feel guilty about the white coat he wore.

Initially, medical staff chose to wear the white armor not only for hygiene but also for its sacred and noble implication.

In the presence of disease demons, ordinary people have no power to resist.

They can only rely on medical staff to save their lives.

He maneuvered the endoscope, cautiously bypassing the bend and then entered the ileum segment.

Things obviously began to narrow here.

The endoscope couldn’t examine the entire ileum.

Now, the hope was to quickly find the lesion.

He spotted a second strand of blood, then a third, a fourth. He was getting closer to the bleeding point.

Finally, a very small tumor came into view.

Not much larger than a soybean.

Clinically, tumors under 1cm are referred to as microtumors. As long as the doctor believes there’s no possibility of malignancy, they won’t be treated.

"The endoscope equipment has already circled it in red."

Nurse Tang said with a tone of surprise from the side.

Today’s endoscope equipment is increasingly advanced; through comprehensive judgments, it considers the likelihood of a malignant tumor and automatically circles it in red as a reminder.

The intention is to prevent careless doctors from overlooking malignant tumors.

"Dr. Li, lucky you insisted, otherwise we might have missed a big issue."

At this moment, Xiao Linlin acknowledged Li Jingsheng.

She truly didn’t expect two tumors inside this patient’s intestines.

"Darn, the large tumor previously discovered in the colonic segment might likely be a metastasis from this tumor."

As she seemed to realize something, her face changed promptly.

The newly discovered tumor isn’t large, yet its surface looks somewhat ’rugged’. Whenever tumors show such irregularity, unevenness, and bleeding, the situation is often very unfavorable.

The probability of malignancy is alarmingly high.

Not to say 100%, but at least over 95%.

"How about I first take cell tissue for a biopsy? It might also be carcinoma in situ."

Clinically, adenocarcinoma is more dreadful.

It’s almost equated with death.

Just look at those rapidly dying gastric and colorectal cancer patients.

However, there are exceptions.

Thyroid tumors, even at a late stage, still have a chance of being cured completely.

Thus, this can’t be compared individually, and carcinoma in situ is divided into squamous carcinoma in situ, adenocarcinoma in situ, and so on.

In a nutshell, the earlier cancer is detected, the more beneficial, many can be cured.

"This is all we can do for now. Let’s make a colon segment mark, convenient for surgical operation. This sister is really unfortunate, to find two tumors in her intestines. One of them even might already be malignant, alas! Truly heartbreaking."

Xiao Linlin agreed with Li Jingsheng’s proposal.

If it were polyps, they could have easily been removed.

But for these two tumors, they’re not to be tampered with casually. It’s still most prudent to have them handled by professional surgeons.

First, take the specimen for a pathological biopsy, which is beneficial for creating a surgical plan.

After completing the endoscopy, Li Jingsheng felt very sympathetic toward this female patient. Her age wasn’t particularly old, yet tumors had been found twice during her life.

This also led Li Jingsheng to ponder deeply.

Is there a connection between the tumor discovered now and the one removed from the abdomen years ago?

No one could say for certain.

When the biopsy results come out, it might draw some conclusions.

If it’s the same type of tumor, it implies some connection.

Only... theoretically, benign tumors shouldn’t spread or proliferate! Even if they do, it would be very slow.

Could benign become malignant?

Before performing the endoscopy, he reviewed the patient’s examination data and could confirm no tumors were temporarily found within the abdominal cavity.

"Your endoscopy skills have remarkably improved. Next time with tough cases, I’ll come to you!"

Xiao Linlin complimented him with a smile after coming out.

Initially, she intended for Li Jingsheng to comply, yet ironically it was she who ended up impressed.

"No problem. See you!"

Li Jingsheng waved his hand, summarizing the gain from this endoscopy in his mind.

Fate is intriguing, feeling like there’s an invisible large hand pushing him forward.

Never did he dream of having such a great development opportunity in endoscopy.

He’d been mingling in the gastroenterology department of the First Hospital before; not to mention the high-level task of endoscopy, he didn’t even get a chance at assisting during consult with a professor.

Now, he has finally made his way through, having weathered the storm.

Back in the clinic room, five of his subordinate doctors were already neatly in place.

"I wasn’t late, was I?"

Li Jingsheng asked Li Li.

"Not late, you’re just on time! I just registered the first patient."

She replied with a smile.

Jokingly, Li Jingsheng was the leader of the Bone Setting Clinic, not to mention being slightly late, even if by half an hour, Li Li would cover up for him.

"Mr. Tian, you’re really lucky. Just registered, and here comes our Dr. Li. Please go in!"

Li Li didn’t forget to say to the patient.

"Thank you!"

The patient and family members all showed happy smiles.

Li Jingsheng had already walked into the clinic room, looking at his five subordinate doctors.

"Did anyone help Dr. Ou with work at noon?"

"Yes! My hand is still sore now!"

Dr. Chen, this guy, competes with Ruan Xiaoqin in claiming credit.

Both are quite capable.

"The most unlucky was Liu Xian, almost got hit by the family members."

Ye Hui has a tomboy personality, with a chivalrous nature deep down.

Liu Xian is introverted, honest, and wouldn’t say a word even if scolded by family members. The chances of him complaining to Li Jingsheng are slim.

"The family members are so violent, huh? You didn’t get hit, did you?"

Li Jingsheng looked at Liu Xian with concern.

He’s strict when necessary, caring when it’s needed for his subordinate doctors.

"No."

Liu Xian kept his head down.

"If such a situation happens next time, call me or get the chief resident to solve it. At worst, you can also approach Director Hua."

Li Jingsheng instructed several people.

Dr. Chen is already a savvy old-timer, surely understands the process.

The main focus is on Ye Hui and the other four.

"That family member was too arrogant, saying his brother-in-law works at the health commission, demanding special treatment for his mother. Liu Xian refused, and he pushed Liu Xian, almost started a fight, and I picked up something."

Jin Yanyu, still somewhat angry, recounted the incident.

"Having courage is good, unity is also good, but don’t always bring out your spoiled brat nature. If you injure someone, have you thought about the consequences? Use your brain while doing things."

Li Jingsheng was scolding Jin Yanyu verbally, but even a fool could hear that this was out of concern and care.

Afraid Jin Yanyu might act foolishly and suffer losses.

"Let’s get to work! I like seeing you being united and helping each other. Yanyu, when there’s a patient needing traction, I’ll call you."

Li Jingsheng encouraged his doctors to be united and supportive.

He’s like a big family head.

Whether the clinic room is harmonious and united relates significantly to his leadership.

Whether siblings in a family are united also strongly ties to the influence of the elders. Elders must remain unbiased, providing equal support. When conflicts arise among children, they should mediate timely and not amplify conflicts.

Li Jingsheng’s Sunshine Clinic is a warm big family where every employee truly enjoys the work atmosphere.

Under his guidance, the first batch of doctors and nurses from the clinic room will also uphold this glorious tradition.

Jin Yanyu was thrilled to hear Li Jingsheng agreed to let him do traction.

He responded loudly with joy.

The other four exchanged knowing smiles.

The treatment work began orderly, and Li Jingsheng’s training of his doctors also progressed step by step.

Providing opportunities where necessary.

Passing on bone-setting knowledge or skills with care.

Busy until clocking out, he was quite exhausted.

"Teacher, your wife has been waiting outside for a while."

Ye Hui softly reminded.

Li Jingsheng looked toward the rest area outside and saw a pretty figure holding packaged food.

This little girl, worried her boyfriend might go hungry.

Whenever she has time, she ensures Li Jingsheng got food.

Either waiting for him in the cafeteria or bringing it over.

Having such a wife, what more could a husband ask for?

Li Jingsheng secretly resolved, once the courtyard is bought, quickly save some money to marry her by next year.

A beautiful and virtuous girl, also a wealthy family daughter, many are after her.

Marrying her sooner is safer.

"Waited long, haven’t you? Are you cold?"

Li Jingsheng walked over, naturally taking the meal from her hands, then held her hand.

"As long as my heart is warm!"

She playfully responded.

"Are you trying to charm me to death without consequences? Never thought you’d say such cheesy words, especially in a hospital."

Li Jingsheng pulled her, walking out.

As for the clinic room, naturally, the students would tidy up.

The feeling of being a teacher is quite nice, many things have someone to help share the burden.

Moreover, as they grow, as long as not teaching an ingrate, their gratitude toward the teacher will persist.

In the future, these will be part of Li Jingsheng’s network.

...

Back at the clinic, the first thing Li Jingsheng did was review the clinic reports and patient treatment information.

The more crucial the moment, the less careless one can be.

Ou Qinglan, on the other hand, was practicing suturing with pigskin and sewing needles, along with other tools. She didn’t have an attribute panel for adding points, only diligence and hard practice.

Perhaps, what she enjoys more is the wonderful feeling of being by Li Jingsheng’s side.

Indeed, it’s quite warm.

After reviewing the clinic’s treatment information, Li Jingsheng marked one particular case.

He thought there were doubts in this case.

Can’t simply treat it as intestinal inflammation.

After checking the treated patients, he began reviewing medication sales. Offline sales were very stable, consistently selling around thirty thousand a day.

Occasionally on holidays, sales could exceed forty thousand or more.
