Doctor: I picked up attributes in the hospital

Chapter 217 The treatment plan with equal emphasis on biological therapy and chemotherapy
"The tumor is too large, and it infiltrates into the intracranial brain tissue. There are too many parts to be removed. If cleaning is required, the contents of the orbit and part of the surface brain tissue must be removed."

Li Haiyang shook his head slightly and said.

"That said, if the tumor cannot shrink, there is no indication for surgery."

Hearing what Li Haiyang said, Zhao Heng frowned and said.

"Yes, the current situation is like this. I suggest that you transfer to my side and start chemotherapy first."

Li Haiyang thought for a while and said.

It stands to reason that patients with this kind of malignant tumor should also be transferred to the oncology department.

"Chemotherapy is the same anywhere, so let's stay here for now."

Zhao Heng said that the malignant tumor is something he can't deal with yet, but he won't give up just like this, because he knows that if only chemotherapy is done, then the girl's survival period is at most only about three months. up.

This is too cruel for a girl who is only 13 years old and the same age.

"That's right. I'll make a chemotherapy plan later. Let's treat it according to this plan first. At least it can delay the infiltration and growth of tumor cells."

Hearing Zhao Heng's words, Li Haiyang thought for a while, and it seemed to be the same. Even if the patient was transferred to the oncology department, he would still receive chemotherapy.

"Dr. Li, is it possible to carry out biological treatment of the tumor at the same time as chemotherapy, in this case, the tumor may be able to shrink and meet the requirements for surgery."

Zhao Heng thought for a while, and suddenly thought that the technology of cell fate regulation he picked up from Professor Li Hongwei seems to include the branch technology of culturing and expanding somatic cells. Isn't this in line with the requirements of tumor biological treatment? ?
Tumor biotherapy, in fact, is the use of biotechnology and biological agents to culture and amplify immune cells collected from patients in vitro, and then infuse them back into the patient's body to stimulate and enhance the body's autoimmune function to achieve the goal of treating tumors. Purpose.

"It is of course good to be able to carry out tumor biological treatment, but it seems that our hospital does not have the technology development in this area."

Hearing Zhao Heng mention tumor biotherapy, Li Haiyang's eyes lit up. This tumor biotherapy is an emerging method of tumor treatment. It is very cutting-edge and basically still in the laboratory stage.

"During my work with Professor Li Hongwei, I learned some techniques of cell fate regulation. This technique includes the branching technique of culturing and expanding somatic cells."'

Zhao Heng said.

"Huh? Cell fate regulation? Dr. Zhao, you have learned such a difficult technique in less than two weeks with Professor Li Hongwei?"

Hearing what Zhao Heng said, of course Li Haiyang would not doubt whether Zhao Heng has mastered the high-end technology of cell fate regulation.

What surprised him was that Zhao Heng's learning ability was a little too strong.

"I have only mastered a part, but it is enough for somatic cell culture and expansion. In addition to chemotherapy, tumor biological therapy may be able to inhibit the rapid growth of tumors, or even make small tumors." tumor, and then it can be operated on.”

Zhao Heng said.

"It's already great to learn a part of it."

"Leave the chemotherapy to me."

Li Haiyang looked at Zhao Heng with admiration and said.

Zhao Heng's ability once again refreshed his cognition.

Next, Li Haiyang went to prepare a chemotherapy plan, and Zhao Heng found the uncle.

"How is it, Dr. Zhao? Can Miaomiao perform surgery?"

The uncle asked anxiously.

"At present, there is no indication for surgery. However, if combined with biological therapy and chemotherapy, there is still hope that the tumor will shrink and meet the surgical requirements."

Zhao Heng thought for a while and said.

At this time, you can't talk too much, but you can't give up hope at all, so you must pay attention to the way you speak.

But any excellent doctor must be excellent in communicating with patients and their families.

"Ugh.."

Hearing what Zhao Heng said, the uncle heaved a long sigh, at least he could still be treated, unlike the hospital he went to before, which meant that the father and daughter were sent home directly.

"Thank you, Dr. Zhao, we will not give up the treatment, but if there is a chance, please give it a try, please!"

After a pause, the uncle said to Zhao Heng sincerely.

"Well, you should also pay attention to rest, the patient still needs your care."

Zhao Heng nodded and said.

"Doctor Zhao, how much will this biological treatment and chemotherapy cost?"

The uncle asked again with some hesitation.

After paying the basic hospital expenses, he didn't have much money on him. Originally, he was living a difficult life with his daughter alone. In the past three months, he had almost spent all his money.

"Now it's symptomatic treatment, and it doesn't cost much. I will tell you when the chemotherapy and biological treatment plan comes out."

Zhao Heng thought for a while and said.

The cost issue is also the most difficult for doctors to solve besides technical issues.

"Thank you, Dr. Zhao, I will raise money, please don't give up on Miaomiao's treatment."

The uncle seemed to have made up his mind and said.

Hearing this, Zhao Heng could only nod his head.

After the uncle went out, Zhao Heng immediately began to search for the branch technology in his mind that came from the cultivation and proliferation of somatic cells in the regulation of cell fate.

Compared with the regulation of cell fate, it is obviously much simpler to cultivate various stem cells just to proliferate somatic cells.

But now there is a problem, not technical, but cost.

For this patient, chemotherapy and tumor biotherapy should be performed at the same time, both of which are expensive.

Cell fate regulation is the most cutting-edge and high-end technology, and this somatic cell culture and proliferation, although one of the branch technologies, also requires the use of a large number of high-end instruments. It can be said that each of these instruments is worth millions. Even millions of devices, some of these devices are not available in the East, and they must go to the laboratory of Professor Li Hongwei of Yenching University.

Thinking of this, Zhao Heng frowned. He could think of a way to solve this technical problem, but he really couldn't think of a good way to solve the problem of medical expenses.

Moreover, when the uncle was asked to pay the initial hospitalization expenses, the uncle had already acted very reluctantly.

Thinking about seeking medical treatment in the past three months, the uncle's savings are almost spent.

"Doctor Zhao, what's the matter?"

Seeing Zhao Heng's frown, Tian Zhen couldn't help asking.

"How much is the remaining hospitalization fee for bed No. 4?"

Zhao Heng asked.

Bed No. 4 is the bed of the girl Miaomiao.

"I only paid 2000 yuan at first, but after the inspection, there are only a little over [-] yuan left."

Tian Zhen thought for a while and said.

As far as the inspection fee is concerned, only the necessary inspections are done. Otherwise, in the case of the girl Miaomiao, 2000 yuan would not be enough for the inspection alone.

This is the case with modern medical care. Once complex diseases are involved, the costs of all aspects will rise in a straight line. This is also a major drawback of modern medical care.
