When the Doctor Uses A Hack

In the office.

All was silent.

Chen Cang called in Liu Xun and Miao Yongzhen. When he informed everyone of the situation, they all fell silent!

Miao Yongzhen found it hard to accept this fact!

"Doctor, did you make a mistake?" Miao Yongzhen couldn't help but ask.

But Liu Xun remained silent!

It was known...

What was meant to come, would come!

These days he had been a bit uneasy, sometimes, the better things seemed, the more terrifying, the less real they felt!

This was how Liu Weize was.

As a small child, he never showed anything particularly striking.

He even called "Mom" and "Dad" later than others.

But then...

Suddenly becoming a genius, it was still hard to believe.

Now, after hearing Chen Cang's words, Liu Xun felt very conflicted.

Chen Cang heard Miao Yongzhen's words, shook his head, and said seriously, "I'm not joking, but... I'm only speculating!"

"Look, this area is the pineal gland, a very small region. Under normal circumstances, this isn't the signal it shows, it isn't normally this white; the way it looks now is an abnormal signal!"

"This should be a pineal gland tumor, but! The most dangerous part is I can't guarantee whether this tumor is benign or malignant!"

"Because, look, this shape is quite irregular, and its boundaries with surrounding areas are unclear. The T1-weighted image shows equal signal, while the T2-weighted image shows high signal."

"At the moment, I suspect it's a pineocyte tumor, but I can't guarantee whether it's benign or malignant!

And, with the signal as it is now, we can't rule out malignancy. We'll need to wait for a post-surgery pathological check to be certain."

After hearing Chen Cang's words, Miao Yongzhen still found it hard to believe.

A perfectly healthy child, how did he get a brain tumor?

And also...

There's a possibility it could be brain cancer!

Thinking of this, Miao Yongzhen felt her breathing become a bit labored.

She felt a weakness all over, unable to speak!

"Doctor, can he be saved?" At this moment, Liu Xun held his wife's hand, asking nervously.

After hearing this, to be honest, Chen Cang felt unsure!

Leaving aside whether the operation is for a benign or malignant tumor.

Even if benign, it's not an easy surgery!

Because the pineal gland tumor is one of the most difficult tumors to surgically remove!

The specific reason needs to be analyzed from the anatomical structure:

The pineal gland is located deep within the brain, anatomically complex, and its surrounding blood vessels have a close relationship with the tumor, making lesion exposure very challenging, with high risks; surgery in this area remains a significant challenge.

Even the best neurosurgeons cannot guarantee doing such a surgery well.

Even possessing Perfect Level Tumor Resection Surgery skills, Chen Cang felt some lack of confidence facing such a surgery!

[Intracranial Tumor Resection Surgery] Perfect Level.

This is merely the Perfect Level within the scientific background and surgical environment of this era.

Technical limitations, ideological limitations, and even various external factors.

In fact, this perfect is not perfect!

Besides, what is truly perfect?

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Cang said, "The surgery is very difficult. I will discuss it with the neurosurgery directors at Tiantan Hospital and Xiehe Hospital to quickly come up with a plan!"

"Of course, if you know any experts, you may do that too."

Chen Cang was being honest.

Miao Yongzhen had calmed down by now.

She looked at Chen Cang and suddenly asked, "Dr. Chen, did you mean to say that my child's high intelligence is actually the result of pineal tumor stimulation?"

"Then... if the tumor is removed, will the child's... high intelligence, and excellent memory remain?"

Miao Yongzhen found it hard to believe; even if she believed it, it was hard to accept.

After all, ever since Liu Weize was six, he was the family's great hope!

And it could even be the chance for them to change their fate, their social class!

Sometimes, disappointment is more terrifying than disease!

In this materially-driven world with complicated human minds.

There is an illness that's the hardest to cure: desire!

Miao Yongzhen truly loved Liu Weize and cared for him, but in her mind, Liu Weize was no longer just a genius child; he was also their chance to change their fate!

He was her pride, her means to satisfy vanity and elevate herself!

Just like the father of child prodigy Zhuang Zhou!

Chen Cang was taken aback when he heard Miao Yongzhen's words.

Who can know this?

Because intelligence itself is something uncontrollable.

It's possible that Liu Weize's talent has nothing to do with the tumor itself.

But it could also be the result of special, complex neurological factors.

If the tumor is removed after surgery and this stimulation disappears, this extraordinary memory might disappear too!

This possibility cannot be ruled out!

It should be known, many exceptionally talented and gifted people are ill!

Some mental illnesses are indeed so.

Their brains stimulate and secrete various neurotransmitters, putting them in complex situations, and while this stimulation is uncontrollable, it produces special talent while also causing intractable diseases!

If asked, what is the most complex area of the human body?

Chen Cang would certainly say it's the nervous system, the brain!

Because, even now, Chen Cang sees this system as a fog to navigate.

It's truly too difficult!

Moreover, this difficulty is the kind where the more you understand, the more insignificant you feel!

For example, just like this surgery, even with Perfect Level Tumor Resection Surgery, Chen Cang can't accomplish it.

He looked at Miao Yongzhen and responsibly said, "We can't exclude this possibility."

After hearing this, Miao Yongzhen remained silent for a long time.

This blow was indeed significant!

After a while, she continued to ask, "What if we don't remove it?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang frowned, "Once a pineal gland tumor is discovered, it must be treated as soon as possible, otherwise prolonging it will make treatment impossible."

Liu Xun quickly said, "Dr. Chen! I don't need him to be a genius; I just hope the child can be healthy and as long as he grows up healthy, what's wrong with being an ordinary person!"

"Dr. Chen, we're counting on you!"

"We'll fully cooperate!"

Chen Cang nodded, "Yes, rest assured, this surgery is extremely rare, and we will be very cautious!"

"Let's work on the child's mental preparedness, tell him the surgery risks, even though he's only 9, but... he's very mature!"

"These things, he has the right to know."

Chen Cang reasoned this way because he hoped by involving the patient, the surgery could gain some reliability!

After all, having someone with a strong survival instinct makes it easier for miracles to occur during surgery!
