From small clinic to medical empire

Chapter 76
"Dr. Zhang, your resection operation is quite thorough. There is no need to clean up the lymph nodes, right?"

Dr. Russell was a little confused. According to the report of the pathological section, the metastasis of this lip cancer may not be large.

Professor Trudeau also felt the same way, and was equally perplexed.

Zhang Zifan shook his head and said, "Please carefully observe the types of cancer cells! There is one important point missing in the report, please see the original picture."

Several doctors quickly looked at the relevant pictures.

Russell was still at a loss, but Professor Trudeau thought of something, "This is a poorly differentiated cancer cell!"

In the human body, there is a well-known type of basal stem cells called "embryonic stem cells".

The so-called embryonic stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to differentiate into various cells such as skin cells, muscle cells, blood cells, etc.

Cells that have differentiated into specific cells basically lose the ability to transform into other cells.

Cancer cells are one exception.

Cancer cells can exhibit varying degrees of "atavism".

For example, lip cancer cells can be divided into three types: highly differentiated, moderately differentiated, and poorly differentiated according to the difference between cancer cells and lip epithelial cells.

The closer to normal lip epithelial cells, that is, the higher the degree of differentiation of cancer cells, the lower the degree of malignancy.

The closer to stem cells, that is, the lower the degree of differentiation of cancer cells, the higher the degree of malignancy.

And the cancer cell classification this time is the poorly differentiated type!

"The level of the pathology department of your hospital needs to be strengthened."

Zhang Zifan shook his head.

In fact, the pathology department of Kuta Hospital cannot be blamed for this. After all, they only read less than [-] slides a year, while the pathology department of the First Attached Hospital reads more than [-] slides a year.

At this moment, the sea tactics showed overwhelming power.

……

After confirming that the type belonged to high risk of metastasis, Zhang Zifan went on to the next step of surgery.

The so-called neck dissection refers to the removal of suspicious lymph nodes.

To use a figurative metaphor, the foci of cancer cells are like the headquarters of zombies.

Now the zombie base camp and the scattered zombies wandering in the surrounding plains have been surgically removed by Zhang Zifan.

However, there are still several highways in the zombie base camp, which will lead to various places in the body.

These highways are the lymphatic pathways.

Lymph nodes are road hotels and service areas on the highway. Since there is ample supply of brains in these places, as long as zombies arrive by car, they will get off the car and eat in these places.

But what Zhang Zifan had to do now was to clean up the road hotels and service areas along the way to eliminate these traveling zombies.

But the real operation is by no means that simple. Not every road hotel will be patronized by zombies, and some hotels may be very hidden and will harbor zombies in them.

Since the lymph nodes are distributed along the way like bunches of grapes, even Zhang Zifan must be very careful not to miss anything.

But all of this is completely different in the eyes of others. Zhang Zifan is like a little girl picking mushrooms, walking in the courtyard, removing lymph nodes one by one, and sending them for inspection.

The test results also proved that Zhang Zifan's judgment was very correct. Most of these lymph nodes had been metastasized, and the bid winning rate was astonishingly high!
From the initial shock to the numbness at this time, Trudeau is no longer worried about whether the video in his hand can silence those racists.

"Shelley, what would you do if someone questioned the authenticity of our video?"

"Professor, I'll let them taste high heels!"

……

After a full two and a half hours, the operation was finally completed.

Led by Dr. Trudeau, all the doctors in the operating room gave applause to pay tribute to this hearty and wonderful operation!

After bathing and changing clothes, when Zhang Zifan returned to the ward, the patient had just been sent back from the recovery room.

Professor Trudeau drove back to Los Angeles with the video material, and Dr. Russell had already described the operation process to the family members in detail.

"The operation was very successful. No, success alone is not enough to describe it. I would call it a miracle! Dr. Zhang has unparalleled surgical talent!"

Dr. Russell's words showed unabashed admiration, "Congratulations on your progress in medical and health care. My Chinese friends, my hometown, India, has been stagnant. The Chinese are amazing!"

Although Old Man Nie was a little haggard, his face was flushed at this time, and he said that Ah San was a good person.

Nie Xiaohui tried her best to smooth things over for the old man, and told him not to call others that.

On the other hand, the two brothers of the Nie family opened their mouths wide open. Until now, they couldn't believe that a doctor from China actually became a specially-appointed scholar at UCLA!
Before they went to UCLA to make an appointment to transfer to another hospital, they were rejected and stared at.

Some people who made an appointment together even reprimanded them for taking away the high-quality medical resources of Americans.

Today, the Chinese people say that they are amazing, which makes them feel ashamed.

Once upon a time, I was not Chinese, I was an American, what a glorious identity.

At the moment, all this seems to be changing a little bit.

……

Three days later, Zhang Zifan said goodbye to Mr. Nie and others, preparing to return home first.

Due to the large scale of the operation, Nie Shiping needed to be hospitalized for a long time. Mr. Nie asked Nie Xiaohui, Zhang Zifan and others to go back to China first, and he stayed with his younger brother for a while in San Diego.

At Los Angeles Airport, Ye Shiyi accompanied her mother to see off the plane.

Seeing her daughter staring blankly at the passenger plane taking off, all the way north, Susan stroked her hair and said:
"Shiyi, do you like that big brother very much? Maybe you should also try to become a doctor?"

"Mom, don't you try to persuade me to give up the dreamland of music!"

"You didn't deny the first sentence?"

"..."

……

Zhang Zifan gained a lot from this trip to North America, and his economic income alone reached 80 yuan.

In addition, Mr. Nie immediately made a decision to hand over the physical examination project of Yuanhang Group to Haoran Medical.

At the same time, he even gave up the idea of ​​donating to the Red Cross and donated a small square under his name to Zhang Zifan.

This small square happens to be right behind Haoran Clinic.

It is routine for celebrities and wealthy businessmen to donate buildings to schools and hospitals. For example, for a man who can only be tanned by the sun, Gu Dianle has donated thousands of Hope Primary Schools across the country.

Another example is the Shaw Towers that are blooming all over the country. They are the handiwork of Hong Kong tycoon Run Run Shaw.

Of course, so many Shaw buildings are not wholly owned by Shaw Brothers, but invested by the local government, and Shaw Brothers spent money to buy a title.

Mr. Nie gave Zhang Zifan a small square. The value of this land is not a small sum.

Zhang Zifan reciprocated and said that the buildings built on this land in the future will be called Yuanping Building or Yuanhang Building.

This made the old man very happy.

In old age, the most important thing is the name after death. Going to the monk temple to donate a longevity memorial tablet, how can it be cost-effective to name a hospital building with your own name to last forever?

All in all, with the two new sites of clothing stores and small squares, Haoran Medical has a solid material foundation for its next development.

However, this is not all. After completing the triple operation of lip cancer resection + skin flap transplantation + neck lymphatic dissection, Zhang Zifan received a new reward.
