When the Doctor Uses A Hack

During the licensing exam for medical practitioners,

there are several major disciplines to choose from: internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, and pediatrics.

Internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, and pediatrics!

These four major areas are often seen as separate fields.

There is collaboration and communication between them,

but they are relatively independent of one another.

Gynecology, in particular, is a notably independent system.

Otherwise, why would people say women hold up half the sky? Anyone who doesn't respect women, think it through carefully—men's health is just a small niche! (cue playful sarcasm)

But, undeniably, gynecology has developed into a comprehensive, independent system.

At this moment, in the office, aside from the department heads of various disciplines, there's also a man around sixty years old. He's dressed in a white shirt, suit trousers, and summer loafers, sporting the iconic bald look, sitting there exuding an air of authority.

One look at this setup and he instantly seems like an official in charge.

Even though he just silently sat there, managing to gather seven or eight department heads in the office at noon is no trivial feat.

But truth be told, the man appeared restless and uneasy!

Who was this man? He was far from ordinary!

Yes, it was Cui Jisheng, an official—a prominent one, holding a top position for over twenty years!

The legitimate former village party secretary. Though retired,

he's spent his entire life in governance!

Do you dare underestimate a village official?

Though Cui Jisheng's rank wasn't high, it didn't diminish his central role in the current situation!

After all, it was his wife who, upon being hospitalized, suddenly and inexplicably experienced acute abdominal pain.

Originally, she had come for a gynecological issue!

But after undergoing an ultrasound, she returned in this state!

Now his wife suffers from excruciating abdominal pain, with no apparent cause identified—it's driving everyone to the edge!

If not for Cui Jisheng's decades of leadership experience, the scene would have spiraled out of control.

In today's era, with medical disputes occurring so frequently, no one could have foreseen such an incident unfolding!

Come on, just a simple ultrasound turned into acute abdominal pain?

Could the ultrasound waves have attacked her somehow?

Unbelievable, right?

Well, now his wife's side of the family believes the hospital's ultrasound injured her!

The hospital staff were practically holding back tears.

Outside the office stood a fifty-something man and woman—his wife's younger siblings.

If it weren't for Cui Jisheng holding them back, they'd have caused a commotion by now.

It's often said village officials fight their way to power, while township officials drink their way there.

And yet, here stood Cui Jisheng, proving his intimidation still carried weight!

However, the two were outside frantically calling home.

"Mom, I heard the doctor say sister is bleeding inside her abdomen!"

"The doctor said they still don't know the cause, the situation isn't clear, not even the bleeding location!"

"I can't understand it, but I feel it must be internal injuries!"

"Yeah, absolutely—ultrasound waves are faster than sound; maybe the doctors didn't control the pressure properly and directly damaged her internal organs!"

...

Chen Cang had just reached the entrance when he overheard this and was utterly stunned!

Ultrasound waves are that powerful?

B-mode ultrasound doctors need to control pressure?

Chen Cang felt he'd gained new knowledge today.

Turns out every ultrasound doctor must be an absolute master!

Would that make MRI machines something akin to electromagnetic cannons?

And X-rays and CT scans super microbeam devices?

Although Chen Cang had limited clinical experience, he'd read numerous case studies—this was his first time encountering ultrasound "damage"!

Meanwhile, inside the office, Cui Jisheng could no longer contain himself. "Director Huang, what's wrong with my wife? This pain, it's unbearable!"

Huang Qiuying was equally exasperated!

Even as a renowned physician, there are situations where one feels powerless.

This was one of those times—no clear understanding of the patient's condition yet.

"Mr. Cui, please wait a moment; we're waiting for someone. Your wife's case is too unusual, and we need to handle it with extreme caution," Huang Qiuying reassured him.

"Only by identifying the cause can we make a definitive diagnosis, leading to more effective treatment. So, please try not to worry."

At that moment, Chen Cang knocked on the door.

He entered, and the general surgery department head, He Zhiqian, greeted him with a smile, "Professor Chen is here!"

Chen Cang nodded, returning He Zhiqian's smile.

Huang Qiuying glanced at Chen Cang, smiling politely, "Professor Chen, please have a seat."

But when Cui Jisheng saw Chen Cang, he froze!

His face changed as he grew visibly emotional, finally unable to hold back his words:

"Director Huang! You…"

Seeing this, Huang Qiuying sighed, anticipating she'd have to spend quite some time explaining.

After all, they'd waited so long only for a young man to show up—how could anyone calmly accept that?

She was just about to explain when...

Suddenly, an excited and genuine expression washed over Cui Jisheng as he spoke in a thick regional dialect-infused Mandarin, "Director Huang, thank you so much!"

"You actually invited Professor Chen!"

"Professor Chen, you've got to help us; my wife is one of your biggest fans…"

His words left everyone in the room speechless!

Something felt off!

"Exactly! We should've called Professor Chen earlier. With him here, there's no doubt in my mind things will get resolved!"

Cui Jisheng's face flushed as he stubbornly stepped over to shake Chen Cang's hand.

All the department heads in the room were stunned!

Even the battle-hardened Huang Qiuying found herself tongue-tied, unable to say anything for a long while.

What was going on? This was not following the usual script!

Even Chen Cang couldn't help but look a bit embarrassed, his complexion turning slightly red.

To be honest, he hadn't expected his first fan to emerge from such a surreal scenario.

Suddenly, Chen Cang felt immense pressure!

Cui Jisheng then added, "Professor Chen, we saw you on 'Challenge the Impossible'; you were incredible!"

At that moment, Chen Cang understood.

The power of national television truly is extraordinary!

Once he makes it to the news channel someday, things will escalate even further!

After everyone settled down, Chen Cang glanced at the elderly man sympathetically. He knew that if he failed to identify the cause today, he would be letting down his fan's unwavering admiration.

Huang Qiuying seized the opportunity to display the patient's condition on the large screen, explaining, "Professor Chen, the patient's case is as follows."

"The patient has uterine fibroids and came for a check-up yesterday afternoon, during which she underwent a gynecological color Doppler ultrasound. Because the patient is obese, she slipped while getting off the examination bed. At the time, there appeared to be no issue. However… starting early today, she began experiencing dizziness followed by severe lower abdominal pain, persisting for about ten hours."

"Upon physical examination, we found a palpable lump in the lower right abdomen, approximately 10cm in diameter, with significant tenderness but no pulsation.

The lower abdomen presented localized tenderness, rebound pain, and muscular tightness."

"An abdominal ultrasound and pelvic CT indicated an irregular mixed mass approximately 8×3.7cm near the bladder on the pelvic's right side."

"Currently, the diagnosis is unclear, but our discussions suggest the possibility of intra-abdominal bleeding, though the cause and precise location remain unknown."
