In the face of disease, sometimes we are so helpless, but the encouragement of family members and the careful and thoughtful care of doctors can enhance patients' confidence in facing the disease, make them strong and optimistic, and thus increase their chances of defeating the disease. Greatly improve. Sister Huang, a seriously ill cancer patient, has a deep understanding of this. She said: "Seeing her and talking to her made me feel at ease, strengthened my confidence, and gave me hope of living..." Who is this "she"? She is Dr. He Jinghuan from Fuda Cancer Hospital Affiliated to Jinan University.
In February 2018, Sister Huang accidentally touched her neck and found a mass on the left side of her neck. A CT scan of her neck, chest and abdomen at the local hospital showed that the middle part of the esophagus and chest was not clearly visible, and a round soft tissue shadow was seen. Size is about 1.8cm. Local doctors considered metastasis of malignant tumors, which could be esophageal tumors or enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes, but they did not consider metastasis of ovarian cancer for the time being because ovarian cancer generally does not metastasize to the neck. The news hit Sister Huang like a bolt from the blue. The worried Sister Huang asked around and found out that Director Luo of the Fuda Cancer Hospital affiliated to Jinan University was well-known in the local area. She initially learned that the hospital has rich experience in treating tumors. Many foreigners have After receiving treatment here, I went to Fuda Cancer Hospital with my family in mid-June 2018 with a trying attitude.
After being admitted to the hospital on June 21, 2018, Sister Huang had a follow-up CT scan of her neck, chest and abdomen. Her attending doctor He Jinghuan found that Sister Huang’s mediastinal tumor had gradually compressed the esophagus. The CA125 tumor marker was found to be 1595U/ml (95% of healthy adult women’s CA125 Level ≤40U/ml), cervical lymph node dissection was performed and sent for pathological examination. The results showed that it was consistent with lymph node metastasis of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. In order to find out where the primary lesion was, Dr. He performed a lung examination, breast examination, and gastroscopy on Sister Huang, but no primary lesion was found. Dr. He suggested that Sister Huang do another pelvic magnetic resonance examination to check whether it is ovarian cancer. However, Sister Huang and her family always emphasized that their local doctor said it could not be ovarian cancer because ovarian cancer generally does not metastasize to the neck. this location. Under Dr. He's patient explanation, Sister Huang and her family members agreed to do a B-ultrasound examination first. Dr. He could see the left ovary under the B-ultrasound microscope, while the right ovary was covered with a huge mass measuring 9.8X7.1X5.4cm, combined with bilateral iliac vessel-like lymphatic metastasis in the left axilla. After Dr. He explained the seriousness of the problem to Sister Huang and her family in detail, Sister Huang and her family finally agreed to do a pelvic magnetic resonance examination to find out. As expected by Dr. He, the huge tumor on Sister Huang's right ovary was exposed under the MRI examination, and the root cause of the disease was finally found.
Just when Dr. He was happy to have diagnosed Sister Huang's original lesion, unexpectedly, Sister Huang and her family chose to give up treatment. It turned out that they had spent a lot of money to diagnose the disease. Now that they learned that it was ovarian cancer, they thought it could not be cured even if they spent money. What's more, the family was originally poor, so they simply gave up treatment. Dr. He felt sorry after learning about the situation, but Dr. He's sense of mission prompted her to persuade Sister Huang to receive treatment again, "Since we have been here and the lesions have appeared, why not give it a try? We can try the most economical What if the treatment plan can effectively control your condition? Don’t give up any hope! I will do my best to help you.” Sister Huang and her family were moved by Dr. He’s sincere words and decided to try again Last treatment.
After completing a course of treatment, Sister Huang was pleasantly surprised to find that the tumor on her neck had significantly reduced in size by half. This brought great hope to her and her family, so she insisted on continuing the treatment. After completing two courses of treatment, the tumor on Sister Huang’s neck was basically invisible to the naked eye and looked similar to normal people. The CA125 tumor marker was checked again and the value had dropped to normal. This made Sister Huang and her husband The family members are very relieved. Now, Dr. He said with a smile: "Sister Huang is currently undergoing consolidation treatment. In the next stage, she is planning to undergo debulking surgery for right ovarian cancer, supraclavicular and mediastinal radiotherapy, and then endocrine therapy to consolidate the curative effect and strive to better control the tumor. ,improve the quality of life."
Sister Huang is unfortunate, but how lucky she is! She said, "Because of Dr. He, my life was saved. I am so grateful to her. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't know where I am now." In the face of Sister Huang’s repeated thanks, Dr. He Jinghuan said: “All we can do is to do our best so that every patient suffering from illness can see the dawn of hope as soon as possible and let them have confidence in life! "A simple sentence expresses the true meaning of doctors at Jinan University Fuda Cancer Hospital adhering to their true nature as doctors, treating patients as relatives, relieving patients' pain, and using benevolence, love and benevolence to build the soul of medicine.
On the road of life, it is because of "you" that thousands of "Sister Huang" are safe and sound!
