?To be precise, it is cerebral arteriovenous malformation. It has become a habit for clinical doctors to sometimes save words and sentences when communicating, but the other party can understand them anyway. You said they were all sent to neurosurgery for treatment, but it¡¯s not about brain power.
Cerebral arteriovenous malformation is very easy to understand literally. It means that the arteries and veins in the brain are abnormally deformed. Simply put, the arteries and veins turn into a lump.
Arteries and veins can be called the transportation system for blood flow in the human body. If the traffic artery of a water pipe becomes numb, the result is nothing more than a blockage or a burst pipe.
Where does the cause of this disease come from.
After leaving pediatrics and returning to the adult department, we will find that we have to come back again to debate whether the disease is more of a congenital or acquired issue. This disease is generally believed to be caused by problems in the angiogenesis process during the embryonic stage.
Since the spinocerebellar degeneration we just mentioned is also said to have genetic factors, it seems that neurosurgery is the hardest hit area for congenital diseases?
That¡¯s not what he said. The mechanism of this disease is the inference of the above-mentioned embryonic medicine, but this disease is often accompanied by other diseases. For example, various brain malignant tumors, infections and other factors also affect angiogenesis and become pathological, causing this disease.
"Is this going to be microneurosurgery to cut it off?" While listening to classmate Xie and Dr. Jin talking, Wei Shangquan and several other students followed along to discuss.
If it is a cerebral arteriovenous malformation, the most common surgical method in the past was to ligate the arteries that supply blood to the "puff" in an attempt to starve the "puff" to death. Later, it was discovered that the recurrence rate of this kind of surgery is very high, and the method adopted now is to remove the "pockmarked balls" completely.
Cutting off the "pockmarked balls" just proves once again that the precision of surgery can never withstand the cunning of the disease before it is fully matured, and can only be cut with one knife.
"She was hospitalized in the Department of Neurology and then transferred here." Classmates Pan Shihua and Geng took the medical records of their group and quickly found the hospitalization records of their friend Dr. Jin, opened them and glanced at them.
"Conservative treatment in the neurology department is not enough, so we should transfer it to the neurosurgery department to prepare for surgery?" Wei asked again if that was the case.
"Shang Quan, you have to know that if this disease is treated conservatively with internal medicine, surgery is generally not possible."
After being refuted by Classmates Pan and Geng, Classmate Wei once again realized that he was a scumbag.
No, it¡¯s because the classmates in his class are so awesome.
Each one is more powerful than the other.
If you don¡¯t believe it, look at what Xie, the strongest student in their class, said.
Xie, who had not seen the patient's medical records, was able to communicate with Dr. Jin without any hindrance: "After hydrocephalus was treated conservatively for a period of time, cerebral arteriovenous malformations were discovered. In this way, internal medicine can never solve hydrocephalus and the condition is complicated. If the condition worsens, the only option is surgery to treat hydrocephalus. At the same time, conservative treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformation will be performed to see if it can improve, and then we can make next steps. Maybe these two diseases have mutual influence."
"Have you seen my friend?" Dr. Jin naturally thought that she had seen the patient, otherwise she didn't say how she would know it was hydrocephalus.
It cannot be said that hydrocephalus and cerebral arteriovenous malformations are completely unrelated, but under normal circumstances it is difficult to associate them with each other.
Xie Wanying denied: "No. I came back to the neurosurgery department the first day. When I came here, I passed by the nurse station. When I greeted the nurse sisters, I took a look at the patient list card at the nurse station."
