Except for the son, the family has given up! The man's skin was constantly running and foul, and he ran more than 10 hospitals without results! Now it has a new life in Ningbo

"When I'm well, I want to go home and see the fish pond and take care of my son and daughter-in-law."

In the hospital room on National Day, although Lao Wang's voice was still very weak, this was the first time in two years that he was no longer trapped in the body attacked by cancer cells, and dared to look at the distant days. On his emaciated body, it is difficult to imagine that a head can be placed in the position after the tumor is removed, which is the description of the chief surgeon, Wang Xin, vice president of Ningbo Sixth Hospital and chief physician of plastic surgery.

Recalling lao Wang's appearance when he was first admitted to the hospital, Wang Xin said: "Urgent, especially urgent, as soon as I come, I want to do it immediately." "It is rare for patients who are so impatient to face surgery. Behind this is that in two years, I ran more than a dozen hospitals in East China, more than a dozen times full of hope, and more than a dozen times fell to the bottom, "impatient" just hope to survive.

The skin is constantly running and smelly

Except for the son, the family gave up

Lao Wang's illness began with a small lump on his right foot two years ago.

At that time, in a hospital in his hometown in another province, the doctor judged that the lump was "not very good", so he amputated the four and five toes of Lao Wang's right foot. But Lao Wang said the hospital did not issue a pathology report.

Not long after, Lao Wang found that another lump appeared in the right groin position of his right side, and at first the lump was not painful or itchy, but it was stuck in the groin position, which was not very convenient. Lymphadenoectomy and biopsy at another hospital confirmed lymph node metastases in squamous cell carcinoma and highly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with low sensitivity to chemoradiotherapy and chemotherapy.

After going to many hospitals in East China, Lao Wang got all the negative treatment plans. As the tumor grows larger and larger, Lao Wang is "eaten" more and more tissue, and doctors have less and less grasp of tumor removal and repair and reconstruction surgery. In radiation therapy, the previous surgical area also broke down, resulting in tumors and infections, and the skin was constantly running and smelling. What was pressing at Lao Wang was not only the cancer cells, but also the strange eyes of the people around him.

Gradually, the family gave up, except for Lao Wang's son and the "daughter-in-law" who was still "dealing with the object".

"It's too tiring to be alive." Lao Wang said that in the past two years, in order to see a doctor, he spent all the money for his son's marriage. Because he had been seeking medical treatment without success, he began to change his own medicine at home, and he could use up a pack of 1 kilogram of cotton in one or two days; the pain tormented him day and night, minute by second, and when the pain was too unbearable, he would give himself a painkiller.

Wang Xin said that Lao Wang's "self-reliance" has even become a habit, and even after this operation, he always uses his hands to deal with the surgical area.

Surgery is tantamount to dancing on the edge of aortic arteries

There are also holes the size of skulls to fill

Lao Wang's son opened a barbecue restaurant in Ningbo Zhuang City for a living. "Dad, come to Ningbo, you are at home by yourself, eating is a problem, this disease can not be cured, you can only wait for death."

While persuading Lao Wang to come to Ningbo, he took Lao Wang's tumor photo and found Wang Xin's outpatient clinic. Judging from the photos, Wang Xin believes that this is indeed a tricky case, but from the experience of microscopic reconstruction after the resection of malignant tumors accumulated in the hospital, it is not impossible to operate on Lao Wang. So he insisted that he should see Lao Wang with his own eyes.

After scanning the important organs of the whole body through PET-CT, Wang Xin found that fortunately, Lao Wang only had a local metastatic lesion in the groin, which provided an important premise for the operation. However, after two years of unbridled growth, the invasion area of the tumor has approached the structure of the genitourinary system such as the abdominal wall, hip joint, anus and vas deferens, and all the deep muscles and blood vessels and nerves in the anterior femoral area have been invaded, and the tumor has wrapped around the aortic and femoral nerves.

"To operate, it is tantamount to 'dancing' on the edge of the aortic, and the 'hole' left by the enlargement of the resection can put down a skull." Wang Xin said, "Whether the knife can get off the operating table, how to avoid amputation after large-scale excision of tissue, how to cover the huge defects left behind, how to solve the lymphatic reflux, how to restore the function of extending the knee and raising the leg after the femoral nerve resection, etc., are all problems that we should consider carefully before surgery." ”

On the one hand, Lao Wang and his son were eager to operate after catching the "life-saving straw", on the other hand, his "internal friction" after two years of tumors, his already shaky body, preoperative conversation, medical staff had to be the first basin of cold water, talking about "death". But Lao Wang and his son chose to trust the doctor and let it go.

It takes 10 hours

Unite more than 10 departments to fight a decisive battle against tumors

Three weeks ago, the day of the "decisive battle" between Lao Wang and the tumor came. This time, he was no longer alone, and he was surrounded by "warriors" wearing blue surgical gowns.

From 8 a.m., the surgery lasted a full 10 hours. In the same operation, Wang Xin's team completed the enlarged resection of the tumor and the dissection of lymph nodes for Lao Wang, and reconstructed the blood vessels, nerves, lymph nodes, muscles and skin, repaired the limb defects, and restored the blood supply to the limbs.

In the end, except for the knee extension function, all other functions were retained. The "decisive battle" against the tumor, which combined plastic and reconstructive surgery, vascular surgery, orthopedic oncology, urology, cardiovascular, anesthesiology, general surgery, internal medicine, pharmacy, ICU, as well as nutrition support teams and nursing teams, ended with the victory of Lao Wang and the medical team.

After the operation, Lao Wang showed a long-lost smile, and his 62-year life began on this day, or a new beginning.
