655 To make history(1/2)
Lao Jin was silent for a long time.
He knew that Dr. Qu was telling the truth and would not harm himself.
Dr. Qu had already introduced the general treatment methods for pancreatic cancer to him in detail. However, his condition was indeed not very good, so many methods could not be used. Even if doctors from all over the world were called, the only option would be to continue palliation.
On and on, until various complications claimed his life.
The whole process was still extremely painful.
If you think so...
"Then give it a try. Thank you, Doctor Qu!"
"Lao Jin, why are we so polite to each other? No more talking, I will report it to you right away. By the way, my sister-in-law will come back later and you can explain it to her."
"Don't worry, your sister-in-law listens to me now."
…
Of course my wife agrees with Lao Jin’s choice.
So after that day, Lao Jin’s previous treatment was temporarily stopped.
There is no need to inject any medicine, except for pain relief.
But the inspections became numerous and incredibly detailed.
Several tubes of blood were drawn every day, and various angiograms and scans were performed several times in between.
In Lao Qu’s words, the computer needs to analyze the pros and cons of the treatment plan through checking the results in as much detail as possible, and finally determine the optimal treatment plan.
Although Lao Jin did not receive any treatment for about two weeks, his spirit improved a lot.
The reason is also very simple. In order to give Lao Jin confidence, Lao Qu had previously informed him of the patients in the same group as him. As for the current examination results of these patients, various target indicators have improved to varying degrees.
Getting better means hope.
In particular, the tumor began to shrink significantly, which means that after changing the treatment plan, it is indeed effective.
This news also gave Lao Jin unprecedented hope.
There is no reason that if everyone gets better, it will be of no use to him, right?
The only thing that makes him depressed is probably that his treatment plan has never been determined.
Until one day half a month later, Lao Qu stood in front of his hospital bed with a tangled look on his face, facing him and said to his wife: "Lao Jin, your treatment plan has come out, a treatment that breaks the rules."
As for the surgical treatment plan, if you want to take a chance, just sign the consent form for the surgery, and it will be performed by the most skilled doctor in our hospital. But I want to say something up front. Neither the surgeon nor I have a big problem with this surgery.
The probability of life and death is about 50-50, you and your sister-in-law should discuss it carefully, and if you decide to take a chance, sign it."
Lao Jin was a little confused.
Of course he hopes for surgery.
In fact, most cancer patients are lucky if their doctors can give them surgical plans. This often means that the patient's indicators are good and his physical condition is good, so he can withstand the torture of surgery.
After all, surgery is risky. If the patient's basic conditions are not up to standard, it means that the risk of surgery is extremely high, and doctors will not be willing to operate on such patients.
Therefore, Lao Jin has not had surgery not because he does not want to have surgery on himself, but because he has never met the conditions for surgery.
Who would have thought that this artificial intelligence was going to give him a cruel blow?
Looking at Lao Jin and his wife's confused and questioning eyes, Dr. Qu sighed, looked at the patients around him who were resting, then lowered his voice and explained: "Lao Jin, sister-in-law, let's put it this way, Lao Jin
The situation is very complex, and the basic energy of the body is deteriorating in all aspects. Basically, drug treatment can no longer achieve the ideal effect."
"So artificial intelligence has given a relatively special treatment plan. Didn't Lao Jin undergo a lot of examinations these days? Even genetic examinations. Through these examinations, artificial intelligence has created a set of surgical plans tailored for you.
How should I put it? No one has done this kind of surgery so far, but artificial intelligence has designed extremely detailed surgical steps and sent a message to the best surgeon in our hospital to persuade him.
.”
"Now the best surgeon in our hospital is undergoing special training for this operation. As for what the special training is about, I don't know exactly. I only know that this operation is quite difficult, but it is not impossible.
.The most important thing is that according to the results given by artificial intelligence, if this operation is successful, the chance of complete cure is more than 90%, but if it fails, death is almost certain. So your decision is very important."
"But then again, if it weren't for your current situation and there is nothing you can do about it, artificial intelligence wouldn't come up with such a radical plan. In short, it's your choice again, Lao Jin. You think about it, and if you are sure,
The operation is scheduled for the morning the day after tomorrow. On the one hand, your body cannot delay it. On the other hand, the operation still needs to prepare some key steps. In addition, our operating room must also undergo certain modifications for this operation. If you choose surgery
As for the plan, it’s not too late to call Min Lu back for a meeting today.”
The Min Lu that Dr. Qu mentioned was Lao Jin's daughter. When he finished speaking, Lao Jin's wife couldn't help but shed tears.
At this point, Lao Jin's eyes began to shine.
"You just said that if the operation is successful, there is more than 90% chance that I will be cured?"
"Yes, if you can hold on. After all, your indicators are not very good. And this surgery plan is a bit weird."
"Then what else are you considering? Since you have the opportunity to take a gamble, why not take a gamble? I have to make a decision and do this surgery. Don't inform Min Lu, don't let her worry and affect her study. When I come out of the ward, my body will
She's almost done cultivating, and she's on winter vacation, so we still have plenty of time to meet." Lao Jin made a decision immediately.
The reason for this decision is simple.
Lao Jin has already experienced the feeling that life is worse than death. If surgery can cure it, it is of course the best. If it cannot be cured, he really doesn't want to continue living without dignity.
Dying on the operating table may not be a relief.
As for not letting my daughter come over, it’s not because I don’t want to see my daughter one last time.
But Lao Jin is a very face-conscious guy, and he really doesn't want his daughter to see his most vulnerable side.
"Okay, I will bring you the informed consent form for the surgery later, my sister-in-law will sign it, and I will let everyone formally prepare for your surgery." Dr. Qu nodded and said.
After Dr. Qu left, the couple looked at each other in silence.
"Why are you so selfish? You left right away. What if Min Lu blames me if the operation fails and I don't see you for the last time?"

"Xiaolu is not such an unreasonable girl. How could she blame you for my decision? Besides, your husband and I are so lucky that the operation cannot fail." Lao Jin looked confident and said nonchalantly.
.
Of course, no one knows what Lao Jin really thinks.
On the third day, the two people, who were mentally prepared, calmly signed the informed consent form for the surgery.
Before pushing Lao Jin into the operation, Lao Qu patted Lao Jin on the shoulder and said, "I wish you luck."
"I don't need your blessing, I have been very lucky in my life." Lao Jin joked and was pushed into the hospital's composite operating room.
The red light comes on and the operation officially begins.
…
At this moment, Wang Yufei happened to open his mailbox and downloaded the technical report Xiaozhi sent him.
At this time, he probably understood the meaning of Xiaozhi's statement.
Through historical examination reports, whole-body scans, and gene-level sequencing, Xiao Zhilai three-dimensionally reconstructs various data of a person at the peak of his health, and then uses revolutionary 3D bioprinting technology to replicate it in a cell culture base**
organs and transplant them into the bodies of terminal cancer patients.
According to Xiaozhi's calculations, the most critical point of this treatment plan is that there will be almost no matrix rejection.
Theoretically, if a doctor is powerful enough, he can even replace all the tissues and organs in a person's body.
This treatment plan also solves several major technical difficulties in biological science, namely the survival problem of 3D printed organs and the internal structure problem. Relying on Xiaozhi's powerful computing power, it is even possible to construct detailed internal structures of the organs.
Nervous tissue and vascular network.
Of course, if this plan is feasible, it will definitely benefit more than just cancer patients.
Even using this technical solution to treat cancer is a waste, but it can save countless lives in other ways.
If you need a heart, kidney, or liver transplant, you no longer need to wait for a suitable donor. You only need to file your own body and wait for a period of time to print out the appropriate organ tissue for transplantation. As long as the operation is successful, no follow-up is required.
Anti-rejection treatment does not require lifelong anti-rejection drugs.
Of course, the advantages and disadvantages are equally obvious.
This treatment plan requires a special biological 3D printer and supporting cell culture base. Currently, there is only one in the world. Xiaozhi spent a day designing it and arranged for his own laboratory to purchase it through the Yuxin Technology internal network.
A 3D printer is modified by itself. The material for printing tissues and organs requires using the patient's tissue to grow suitable organs.
The preparation time is also long. These organs need to be printed out first, and then they need to be cultured for about a week to ensure their activity...
Faced with the particularity of cancer patients, organ transplantation alone is not enough. Because tumors are a very special disease, patients with late-stage cancers undergo metastasis and basically undergo hematological or lymphatic metastasis from one organ to another.
The process of transfer means that there will be transfers to other locations.
The most important thing is that patients with advanced cancer often have extremely poor physical conditions and poor coagulation function, making it difficult for them to undergo such a large-scale surgery. For this reason, Xiaozhi also specially designed equipment for extracorporeal circulation of blood that is different from that used in cardiac surgery.
.
At the end, Wang Yufei was stunned.
In order to save the life of a patient with advanced pancreatic cancer, Xiaozhi specially designed this plan, and the equipment has been sent to the cancer hospital and installed. Through multiple cameras with no blind spots in the operating room, and specially configured for doctors
Cameras, headphones and other equipment allow it to participate in the entire operation.
