Chapter 154: Even with X-ray vision, it can't be more accurate than a machine!
"Teacher Lu, let's just call for a consultation."
"After all, in the field of reproduction, experts from the Urology and Reproductive Medicine Department are more skilled."
"For the sake of the patient, we must provide them with the best treatment and options."
Lin Yi looked at Lu Chenxi and gave a decisive answer.
Although he had the System, Lin Yi was not arrogant enough to consider himself an omnipotent god!
"I understand."
After a deep look at Lin Yi, Lu Chenxi immediately called Director Zhou Fang of the Urology and Reproductive Medicine Department.
She was a bit confused, unable to tell whether the domineering or the cautious side was the real Lin Yi... Ten minutes later.
Director Zhou of the Urology and Reproductive Medicine Department arrived at the Emergency Department Doctors Office with an attending doctor.
"Director Zhou, this is Dr. Lin Yi, an attending doctor from our department."
"Lin Yi, this is Director Zhou Fang of the Urology and Reproductive Medicine Department. Director Zhou is one of the top experts in the province in her field..."
After welcoming Director Zhou into the office, Lu Chenxi made a brief introduction between the two parties.
"Lin Yi, I know you. The Hospital has been buzzing about an all-rounder General Practitioner who came to the Emergency Department."
"Now it seems, everyone should add 'handsome' to that description."
Director Zhou looked at Lin Yi and praised him with a smile.
But to Lin Yi, her words sounded like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, finding him more and more pleasing to the eye.
It seemed like this was their first meeting, but Director Zhou was a bit too amiable. Unable to respond, Lin Yi could only smile awkwardly on the side...
"Alright, enough small talk. Doctor Lin, what problem have you encountered? Let's hear it."
When it came to professional matters, Director Zhou immediately became serious.
"This is the patient's case. Director Zhou, please take a look first."
As he handed over the various test reports that had been prepared, Lin Yi also highlighted and described the patient's detailed condition...
"I have a general understanding of the test reports. The patient's condition is indeed relatively rare in clinical practice."
"As the attending doctor, Doctor Lin, what are your thoughts on the patient's condition?"
After reading the test reports, Director Zhou did not rush to express her opinion.
Instead, she turned to Lin Yi, wanting to hear the young doctor's perspective...
"Although the patient has been fully diagnosed as male in terms of physiological gender."
"However, given that the patient has lived normally as a female for about 20 years, using this social attribute."
"I suggest immediately removing the patient's testes, thoroughly reshaping the patient's sexual organs, and then cooperating with estrogen therapy to allow the patient to live normally with the social attribute of a female..."
Facing Director Zhou's inquiry, Lin Yi presented the treatment plan he had already prepared.
From every angle, he believed this plan would have the least impact on the patient's physical and mental well-being.
However, after hearing Lin Yi's proposed treatment plan, Director Zhou frowned and remained silent, instead repeatedly reviewing the patient's abdominal CT scan report...
"According to the patient's androgen insensitivity syndrome, Doctor Lin's treatment plan is indeed the best choice for the Hospital and the patient."
"But I still cannot agree with this treatment plan!"
Director Zhou hesitated, but ultimately rejected the treatment plan proposed by Lin Yi.
"Firstly, our Central Hospital is not a plastic surgery Hospital after all, and the reshaping of the patient's sexual organs may not achieve the desired effect for the patient."
"More importantly, the patient's CT scan report cannot confirm the exact location of the patient's testes in the abdominal cavity."
"If we operate rashly, and we can't find the testes, or if the removal of the gonads causes endocrine imbalance, it will lead to endless suffering for the patient's future life."
"Therefore, I recommend maintaining the current situation and conservative drug treatment."
Director Zhou listed her reasons for rejecting Lin Yi's treatment plan one by one...
"Director Zhou, the inflammatory response in the patient's body has already become prominent. If the testes are not removed in time, there is a risk of life-threatening complications."
"I strongly recommend immediate surgery. The longer we delay, the greater the danger will become!"
Lin Yi still insisted on the necessity of immediate surgery.
He was not unaware of Director Zhou's concerns; after all, this involved opening the patient's abdominal cavity and removing the body's most important gonads.
If the patient had not experienced any discomfort, he would not have adopted such a treatment plan.
However, the System had clearly indicated that if the patient's testes were not removed in time, a greater danger would inevitably occur.
The most troublesome part was that only Lin Yi knew about the System's warnings...
"Doctor Lin, according to the various data in the test reports, there is currently no evidence to prove that the inflammation in the patient's body is caused by inflamed testes."
"Furthermore, since the patient's testes cannot be located by examination methods, operating rashly will only cause greater harm to the patient."
"My opinion is that this surgery cannot be performed, at least not until the exact location of the patient's testes can be determined!"
Director Zhou once again firmly rejected Lin Yi's surgical plan.
She was objective and not personal. She had heard some things about Lin Yi from the Hospital Director and Director Zhong.
She was genuinely happy that such a young and promising doctor had come to Central Hospital.
However, from her professional perspective, operating without confirming the exact location of the patient's testes was extremely irresponsible towards the patient.
What if, after opening the abdominal cavity, the patient's testes couldn't be found? Should they just stitch her back up?
Neither the doctor nor the patient could accept such an outcome, could they...
"Lin Yi, why don't we listen to Director Zhou and adopt conservative treatment first?"
"If the treatment is not effective later, it won't be too late to consider a surgical plan..."
Seeing both sides holding their ground and the increasingly awkward atmosphere in the office, Lu Chenxi quietly advised Lin Yi.
Through Director Zhou's description, she herself was more inclined towards the conservative treatment plan.
Just as Director Zhou said, if they opened the patient's abdominal cavity and couldn't find the testes, the surgical doctor would be in huge trouble...
"If I have a way to find the exact location of the patient's testes."
"Would Director Zhou still insist on opposing the surgical treatment plan?"
Lin Yi looked at Director Zhou and asked confidently.
After listening for a while, Lin Yi understood that the biggest disagreement between the two sides was the inability to determine the exact location of the testes in the patient's abdominal cavity.
If he didn't take a calculated risk, this surgery definitely couldn't be carried out...
"How is that possible!"
"The examinations you've performed on the patient are already so detailed. If it weren't for the patient's elevated testosterone levels, I wouldn't even believe that there are still testes in the patient's body."
Director Zhou flipped through the test reports again. She still couldn't believe how Lin Yi could determine the location of the patient's testes.
Even if Lin Yi had X-ray vision, he wouldn't be able to find a lesion that even enhanced CT couldn't scan, would he...
"Director Zhou, never mind the method I mentioned. Just tell me if you agree to the surgery or not!"
The confidence in Lin Yi's eyes made it hard for people not to believe what he said...
