"This could be dead on the operating table, and you could go home with the ashes. ”
The girl was suddenly paralyzed from the neck down, and as soon as the results of the examination came out, the parents were ready to go home with the ashes.
At 7 p.m. on October 9, 2020, 16-year-old Han Han was rushed by ambulance to Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University.
After diagnosis, Hanhan was diagnosed with cerebrovascular malformation, due to the direct infusion of arterial blood to the vein, resulting in the expansion of the entire vein, all the way to the spinal cord, and finally the formation of an arterial ball at the high cervical spinal cord site, now the arterial ball has ruptured, and caused bleeding and edema, causing dyspnea and quadriplegia, the patient may die at any time.
Seeing that Hanhan's condition continued to deteriorate, Dr. Zhang Hongqi decided to perform interventional embolization surgery on her as quickly as possible.
Zhang Hongqi is the director of the Department of Neurosurgery of Xuanwu Hospital, not only mastering the top interventional treatment technology, but also making craniotomy the pinnacle, known as the "amphibious tank" in the field of neurosurgery in the industry.
The operation is about to begin, and Hanhan's parents are anxiously waiting, as a doctor, Hanhan's father knows very well how dangerous his daughter is now. While hoping for the worst, he also prepared for the worst.
Hanhan's father: "I am a doctor myself, I know the danger of this disease, and she can be said to be nine deaths." Maybe the best thing is to do it minimally invasively, and the neurological function is restored and go home, but I think this kind of chance is that it is really very, very slim, and the other thing may be that the person is gone, and the ashes may be taken home. ”
Director Zhang: "She is more dangerous, there are big balls on the veins, some of them may have been broken, once it is broken again, I estimate that she will die, which may be dead on the operating table." ”
The operation officially began, and all medical staff were on standby.
Director Zhang had to find the location of the vascular malformation without opening the skull and exposing the lesion.
The thickest blood vessel in the brain is only 4 mm, and the slightest mistake can have unimaginable consequences.
The intervention room was quiet, and Director Zhang had to maintain a high degree of concentration throughout the whole process, and after half an hour, he accurately found the location of the vascular malformation.
After 15 minutes, Director Zhang pushed the liquid embolic glue into the bleeding position.
Director Zhang: "Okay, come out for the imaging, her blood vessels can go in, just after the blockage, the whole tension is reduced, the tension is reduced, and the compression of this spinal cord is significantly reduced, which is basically cured." ”
The arterial bulb is gone, which means that Han Han is out of danger.
Director Zhang walked out of the operating room and told Hanhan's parents the good news: "It's done, it's good, she is cured now." ”
Hearing Director Zhang's words, the parents' hanging hearts finally fell to the ground. After the operation, Hanhan was pushed into the ICU for further treatment.
On the 6th day after surgery, Hanhan's condition had stabilized, and when she heard that she could finally be discharged from the hospital, a long-lost smile appeared on her face.
