Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s-Chapter 210 - 【210】Ive lost all my face
Chapter 210: 【210】I’ve lost all my face Chapter 210: 【210】I’ve lost all my face Doctor Zhang turned around and noticed that more and more people in the corridor were looking this way, everyone listening to what the young girl was saying, showing that her words had hit their mark.
“Doctor Zhang, don’t you even look at the patient when you administer the anesthetic?” Xie Wanying asked him again.
A crowd waited for his response.
“Fine, let’s go see the patient!” Doctor Zhang couldn’t say no. As a doctor, he had to see the patient. Turning around, he hurried towards the operating room, thinking about how he would soon shame these people to death. This patient with a lumbar disc herniation insisted on saying it was a spinal problem, as if Doctor Zhang was a rookie like them.
This young girl, thinking she knew it all, was talking nonsense.
If it really was a spinal issue, such as ankylosing spondylitis, wouldn’t a clinical doctor know? Even a proctologist should have noticed something. This patient had previously undergone anal surgery; how could a clinical doctor not be aware of this?
As Doctor Zhang strode ahead furiously, Huang Zhilei trailed behind feeling that something was indeed amiss. Such a misdiagnosis was rarely seen. Spinal problems are easily recognizable; could it be early-stage ankylosing spondylitis? He adjusted his glasses to see what his senior brother thought.
Cao Yong glanced over his shoulder at Doctor Zhang’s retreating figure before walking on. That look seemed to see beyond just Doctor Zhang.
Huang Zhilei thought: hey, isn’t that the office of the head of the Anesthesiology Department up ahead?
The group reached the operating room. Lau Jingyun rushed ahead, fearing that her junior sister would suffer because of her.
When they arrived at the patient’s side, the nurse taking care of the patient had just reported a situation to the doctor, telling the entering Doctor Zhang, “She seems to have a problem with her spine.”
Hearing the nurse’s words, Doctor Zhang was taken aback.
The patient, lying on her side in bed, couldn’t bend at all, and even found bending her head difficult.

Lumbar issues, cervical issues, it could be both. But not being able to bend over, this was not right; it wasn’t just lumbar disc herniation. Doctor Zhang walked behind the patient and reached out to touch the patient’s back. Upon touching, the muscles were all tense.
“What’s going on?” A voice of a man in his fifties came from the door of the operating room.
“Director Li,” Lau Jingyun called out, being nearby.
Doctor Zhang’s face turned pale in an instant. Could it be that the chief heard the dispute in the corridor? If he had known, he wouldn’t have argued with the girl!
He thought the young girl would end up embarrassing herself, but now could it be that he was the one who was going to be humiliated to the end?
This was something he had never encountered before. Ankylosing spondylitis in an elderly female, could it really be a possibility? Rheumatism seldom affects the lumbar spine; osteoarthritis doesn’t involve muscle atrophy and rigidity. Whether it was ankylosing spondylitis or not, it was clear that the patient had a problem with her spine.
Forget about spinal anesthesia, even general anesthesia needed to be very carefully reconsidered; he would have to consult with the surgeon again.
Without hearing Doctor Zhang speak, Director Li approached the patient and asked the elderly lady, “Can you bend over?”
“I can’t. I’ve repeatedly told them it hurts,” the older lady complained.
“Have you ever told your doctor that you can’t bend over?”
“Yes. They said it might be lumbar disc herniation.”
“Have you had any imaging tests?”
“No. Isn’t it just lumbar disc herniation? Doesn’t everyone have it?”
Hearing what the old lady said, it was clear that the patient was frugal; since the doctor said it was a common disease, why bother with a CT scan or anything like that, which would cost her over a thousand – she couldn’t afford it. Otherwise, why would she need to undergo anal fistula surgery twice? The second time it seemed the patient had no choice but to agree to the procedure.
