Hebei News Network News (Yanzhao Metropolis Network correspondent Niu Meili reporter Chen Zheng) Recently, the Department of Neurosurgery of the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University of Engineering carried out a special operation, under the guidance of minimally invasive technology, after two hours, the doctor team removed a "needle-like" metal foreign body from the brain of a 3-year-old girl, and the child was discharged from the hospital 10 days after the operation. But how the metal foreign body enters the child's brain has become a mystery.
According to reports, a few days ago, a 3-year-old girl accompanied by her family went to the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University of Engineering for treatment. The girl's family said that the child continued to have headache symptoms, and had previously visited multiple hospitals and could not determine the cause. Through the hospital's neurology department of skull CT and skull x-ray examination, there is a "needle-like" metal foreign body in the right forehead of the girl's head, about 1.5 cm long, and what is more worrying is that the area is very close to the limb motor function area, and a little carelessness will not only bring lifelong consequences to the child, but also may have serious consequences of death, and the operation is extremely difficult.
After consultation with a number of neurosurgery experts, a detailed surgical plan was formulated, and Professor Ma Dongzhou, the director of the department, personally undertook the operation. On the day of the operation, after the success of general anesthesia, Professor Ma Dongzhou first cut the scalp by 3.5 cm in the central anterior gyrus next to the sagittal sinus, separated and led the scalp, under the guidance of the stereotactic instrument, the skull was drilled, a bone hole with a diameter of 2.0 cm was formed, and the stereotactic guidance was carried out again, and the dura mater was cut under the neurosurgical microscope to separate the brain tissue. At this time, the "foreign body" presented to the medical staff is a metal needle, about 1.5 cm long, which is inserted into the lateral wall of the central anterior gyrus and the central sulcus artery, and if removed, it is likely to cause a major bleeding crisis to the child's life and postoperative hemiplegia. The surgery encountered great difficulties. If it is not removed, it means that the operation has failed.
After full preparation, Professor Ma Dongzhou, with the assistance of his assistant, carefully removed the metal needle, after removal, the arterial blood surged out, Professor Ma decisively blocked the artery, repaired the artery, and used ear and brain glue to strengthen the repaired arterial fissure, after lifting the blockade, the bleeding from the arterial rupture stopped, the distal blood supply was good, and the repair was successful. The operation lasted 2 hours and ended smoothly, and the postoperative child did not have any complications, was hospitalized for 10 days, and was cured and discharged. However, how the metal needle entered the brain has not been understood. The hospital repeatedly questioned the parents of the children, who denied that the children had a history of infusion since their birth. Professor Ma Dongzhou believes that the metal needle may have been pierced into the brain before the child's front fontanelle was closed. As for the rest remains a mystery.
