Chapter 563 Take off the urine bag and regain your life (Part 1)
Kunming First People's Hospital, Department of Urology.
"What? You Sanqing have developed an artificial bladder again?"
"The clinical trial has been approved? This, this, is really great."
"Don't worry, I'll find you some patients for clinical trials right away."
Director Wu put down the phone and walked around the office excitedly, unable to calm down for a long time.
As the director of the Department of Urology, he has seen too many patients who hang around urine bags every day and live a life worse than death.
Many of these patients are still very young and originally had a good life, but due to the disease, their entire lives have been completely destroyed.
It’s really frustrating!
They must be notified as soon as possible to come over and modify the bladder and remove the urine bag.
Thinking of this, he immediately returned to his desk and flipped through the case records on the computer.
"Female, 16 years old. Her bladder was ruptured due to a car accident. Her intestinal condition was not in good condition. She could not take out the ileum to reconstruct her bladder, so she had to undergo a cystostomy. It was so pitiful. I did this surgery myself."
Director Wu recalled the pitiful young girl with a urine bag hanging on her face, and couldn't help but feel a sore nose: "It's just her."
"There is also this, a 10-year-old boy who suffers from severe congenital urinary incontinence. His bladder is only one-fifth the size of an ordinary person. In this case, it is difficult to undergo surgery and can only be treated conservatively. According to family members, the patient has developed autism symptoms.
If he can be transplanted with an artificial bladder, it will definitely greatly improve his quality of life."
"Male, 50 years old, has suffered from uremia for 30 years. His left kidney and bladder have been removed. Over the past 30 years, he has come to the hospital for dialysis every week and has to change his urinary catheter once a month. The family has a heavy burden. If he can be replaced,
An artificial bladder would definitely improve things."
“…..”
In just ten minutes, Director Wu picked out five impressive patients. They were either seriously ill, young, or had heavy family burdens. After artificial bladder transplantation, they could greatly improve their conditions and save five patients in pain.
A desperate family sinking into despair.
Subsequently, he called the patients and their families one by one to personally inform them of the good news.
As a doctor, he likes to hear the joyful voices from his patients, and feels extremely satisfied every time.
****
50-year-old Li is a man that even doctors find incredible. He undergoes hemodialysis three times a week. He has a loud voice and quick movements. He also likes to ride a bicycle when he has nothing to do.
As a kidney fighter, he has been fighting uremia for 30 years and lost a left kidney and a bladder.
He is not like ordinary uremia patients who are dying every day and as weak as a candle in the wind, but he has strong vitality.
Except for the yellow urine bag hanging on his waist, he looks like an ordinary person.
The root cause of Lao Li's illness stems from an accident when he was 8 years old. He climbed up a tree because of his naughtiness. Unexpectedly, he was frightened and suddenly slipped down. The branch punctured his urethra, and he began to urinate after returning home.
The medical conditions were not good at that time, so Lao Li just took some traditional Chinese medicine and took it to heart, but he did not expect that the damage to the urethra would lead to infection of the bladder and kidneys.
Since he was 12 years old, he has been unable to control his urination. In class, he raised his hand repeatedly to ask for leave to go to the toilet. The teacher only thought he was naughty and often refused, but he didn't know that the child was almost crying.
In desperation, Lao Li had to drop out of school. At that time, he only felt relieved. He never thought that frequent urination was because his bladder was shrinking.
Later, the frequency of urination became more and more serious, and the family went to the local hospital for treatment, but they could not find out the reason.
When he was 20 years old, Lao Li suddenly suffered heavy bleeding while urinating and collapsed.
The local doctors were helpless and sent him to a higher-level hospital. The doctor said that his left kidney and bladder had become necrotic.
In order to save his life, he lost two of his most important urinary organs. He had an ostomy and a urine bag on his right waist for urination.
Later, he developed uremia and needed hemodialysis three times a week.
At the age of 40, uremia caused heart failure, which is the most dangerous complication. Lao Li felt that he had only one breath left, but he was miraculously saved by doctors again.
He passed through the gate of hell many times, but Lao Li still lived well, optimistic and happy.
For 30 years, he has been living with a urine bag. Although he is just an ordinary security guard and lives cautiously, he never gives up on life.
After work, he bought books from bookstores and taught himself erhu and pipa. His good piano skills made him a celebrity in the community, and he even had a female fan, forming a harmonious family.
Being able to be in such a state comes from his free and easy mentality of treating himself as a normal person.
Regardless of work or life, he holds himself to the standards of a normal person. Even in the summer before, he took a urine bag to swim in public and didn't feel anything strange.
He didn't care about those strange looks and pretended he couldn't see them.
Over time, this earned him the respect of many people.
Since he has been ill for many years, he has also met many doctors in the Department of Urology and Nephrology, and he is an old acquaintance with Director Wu.
On this day, as usual, he was playing the erhu in the community and communicating with a group of piano friends.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Lao Li picked up the phone: "Hey, Director Wu, what's going on?"
With a pop, the phone slipped from his hand and fell straight to the ground.
Lao Li didn't realize it at all and was completely stunned on the spot.
It wasn't until his wife pushed him beside him that he exclaimed as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"I-I'm going to have a new bladder?"
He looked at his feet and quickly picked up the phone. Fortunately, the thick phone case saved the screen from shattering.
When the wife heard this, she was also shocked: "New spectator? What do you mean?"
Lao Li hugged his wife and refused to let go for a long time, murmuring in a low voice: "Director Wu said he would give me a brand new bladder."
Unconsciously, his face was covered with tears of joy.
The wife was stunned for a moment: "Wasn't your bladder cut out early? Can it grow back?"
The piano friends next to me also opened their eyes wide, as if they had heard some fantasy.
Lao Li wiped away the tears on his face like he was wiping sweat and explained to everyone.
"It's not a new growth, it's a transplant of an artificial bladder. Oh my, it's complicated and I can't understand it, but this is a new achievement developed by Sanqing Group, so it shouldn't be fake."
"Oh, Sanqing's new achievements should be kept true."
Everyone suddenly understood and believed him immediately, and congratulated him one after another.
"Old Li, you have caught up with the good times. You are so lucky to have a new bladder transplanted after it is gone."
"Are we going to conduct some kind of clinical trial? This is very popular now. Last time, my old man also got a disease. He participated in a clinical trial even though he was 70 and 80 years old. It was so foreign."
"After 30 years, Lao Li's bladder has finally returned, which is really gratifying."
"After the surgery, we will prepare a table for you to celebrate."
My wife also looked overjoyed. She couldn’t figure out how this was done. She could only attribute it to the power of technology.
"Then you have a new bladder, will you not need to hang a urine bag in the future?"
Lao Li patted the urine bag under his coat. There was a bulging bag inside. He suddenly felt mixed emotions. He thought that this urine bag had been with him for thirty years. If it disappeared in the future, he might not be used to it.
However, he did not miss it, but felt a burst of joy in his chest and nodded: "That's right, this thing will never be used again in the future."
The next day, Lao Li came to Kunming People's Hospital as scheduled and met Director Wu.
After saying hello with a smile on his face, he saw four other patients in the office.
In addition to the two middle-aged people, there were also two very young patients, which made him look at them a few more times.
A girl in school uniform was carrying a satchel with an unsealed zipper and a yellow urine bag just inside.
Her eyes were calm and she would smile slightly at everyone she looked at. She was as calm and composed as an ordinary middle school student walking on the street.
The two looked at each other and nodded to each other.
Lao Li secretly praised in his heart that he saw his own reflection in this girl, and that carefree and carefree attitude was so familiar.
It is foreseeable that no matter how serious the disease is, she cannot knock her down, and she is destined to grow up happily.
He turned his eyes and looked towards the corner.
There stood a silent little boy, his head lowered, hiding behind his parents, hiding in the shadows, as if this could isolate all unpleasantness from outside and not affect his own little world.
Lao Li glanced up and down, and soon saw the yellow urine bag on the little boy's body. His heart suddenly sank, and he looked away, not daring to look again.
How old are these children? They should be innocent, carefree, and growing up healthily, but instead they are burdened with unbearable pain and an unforeseen future.
He lamented in his heart, the joy on his face disappeared instantly, and he could no longer smile.
At this time, Director Wu coughed slightly and began to distribute the documents in his hand.
"This is the consent form for the clinical trial. Take a look at it. If you have no objection, just sign it. For minors, their family members will sign on their behalf."
Everyone signed, and the five thin documents were neatly stacked on the desk.
