Chapter 1081: Chapter 883 Life Winner

After looking over the records of a patient who had undergone thyroid cancer surgery, Yang Ping had been pondering the case.

It was not that the case itself was particularly difficult, but the records seemed a bit odd. It might be something others could not detect, but Yang Ping could easily spot some logical issues within the patient’s records.

Every disease, including its medical history, examination, and various auxiliary tests, must have an internal logical connection. These relationships objectively exist and are not subject to the will of individuals.

Even if no one notices, these connections run through the entire diagnosis and treatment process.

Yang Ping had an excellent memory, honed by the need to frequently recall and bring out required materials from the System Space by memory, which had given him the ability to remember everything at a glance.

He was very clear about this case in his mind after reviewing the records, and he mentally organized the records to identify inconsistencies: the main complaint and physical examination indicated late-stage thyroid cancer with metastasis.

However, the various auxiliary test results included in the records did not provide clear evidence to support a diagnosis of thyroid cancer.

Yet, the entire treatment plan was centered around thyroid cancer. The surgery performed was a radical resection, and post-surgery treatments included various therapies such as targeted therapy. It was as if every possible cancer treatment method had been utilized.

What was strangest of all was that the medical records did not include a pathological report, and the discharge summary also failed to mention the results of the pathological report.

Logically, every cancer patient who underwent a pathological examination should have a note of the pathology report number and diagnosis in their discharge records.

This patient had undergone surgery twice, and there was no reason for a pathological examination to be omitted. Examining tissues removed during surgery is a standard medical practice and is absolutely required.

Because of this anomaly, Yang Ping dedicated extra attention to the case.

Upon returning to his own department, Director Fang would deeply regret his actions, feeling that his level had been too low, and he had been too worldly. He should not have made excuses to the patient. That was not the level of a world-class doctor. To become a top doctor in the world, he needed to elevate his own level.

Professor Yang was different; his concern was how to solve problems for patients, not to consider the mundane matters of the world.

As he thought about it, Director Fang began to study the case. He had already photographed all of the patient’s records for reference, so he could pull them up on his phone at any time. Although it was hard on the eyes to look at the phone, it was manageable.

He decided to be a doctor with a high level of professionalism. For every patient that trusted him, he was determined to go all out to solve their problems.

Indeed, there were issues with this case: two surgeries and no pathological report. Was it missing, or did the patient leave it out? He would find out once he got it in his hands.

If the situation continued and the other recurrent laryngeal nerve also suffered increasing damage, the patient would definitely face problems in the future, likely experiencing life-threatening breathing difficulties. Currently, no one in the peripheral hospitals would dare to take on the case. In such a situation, the patient could easily have delayed treatment.

Thinking this, Director Fang felt a strong and sudden sympathy for the patient – perhaps a sign of his elevated mindset – and he aspired to be one not bound by worldly concerns, to be someone with pursuits.

After all, as he saw himself as a future world-leading doctor, he also had to ensure that his thoughts and mindset were consistent with his ambitious goals.

Only when thoughts are elevated can behaviors be improved, for thoughts guide a person’s actions.

Song Zimo and Xu Zhiliang began preparations for their trip to Europe. Originally, Xu Zhiliang had also been invited as a speaker, but it was hopeless; Old Xu’s ability to express himself was severely lacking. Apart from emergency rescues, it seemed that his stutter, which had once improved slightly with practice in front of a wall, had reverted back to its original state, suggesting it was an innate issue not amenable to change despite effort.

August had also given the second senior brother a chance, but for personal reasons, he had to decline August’s kind offer.

Without a topic for presentation, Xu Zhiliang decided to absorb the atmosphere of the conference, to broaden his horizons and see what the world is like. Of course, another important task was to carry bags for Song Zimo, to be his assistant.

It was not excessive for Song Zimo, a world-class surgeon, to be accompanied by an assistant, even if this assistant was not quite up to par.

With the department’s two key players going abroad, there would definitely be a staff shortage. Fortunately, Wen Zhong and Old Jin had recently arrived at the Surgical Research Institute. However, as orthopedic surgeons who had not yet undergone the multidisciplinary training of the Institute, they surely could not take charge on their own.

The two capable leaders who could stand on their own were now both going abroad for several days. In the days to come, Yang Ping had to take charge personally for anything that occurred.

As the head of the department and the academic leader, Yang Ping usually did not touch upon the daily management of the department, which was entirely Song Zimo’s responsibility.

"While we’re away, you need to be diligent and sharp. We’re entrusting the daily management of the department to you. The professor is very busy and doesn’t have time for these trivial matters, so don’t distract him with them," Song Zimo told Zhang Lin, Little Five, and Li Guodong. Once he and Xu Zhiliang were gone, these three would be the main force of the department.

It was hopeless to count on Xia Shu. Being new, he was already busy transporting the Head Nurse and had recently taken on the additional responsibility of accompanying the Head Nurse to the park for fresh air and discussing life with her.
