Chen Ang’s adjusted surgical position was a must, and Strange saw a clear and clean surgical field of vision, only to realize that he did not notice when Chen Ang adjusted the patient’s surgical posture, but the surgical field of the hooked window The patient’s brachial plexus can be clearly observed.

The nerve of the ivory white is as thin as a silver wire, thick like a tendon, surrounded by a thin film sheath.

The black fungus is linear and has grown into the film-like sheath. The black fungus and nerves are entangled. It is parasitic on the nerve, and the black vein spread on the nerve of the ivory white is extraordinarily conspicuous. It even squirmed slowly, letting Strange feel numb.

The brachial plexus consists of the fifth to eighth anterior branch of the cervical nerve and the anterior branch of the first thoracic nerve. It passes through the space of the scalene muscle and runs over the posterior subclavian artery and enters the armpit through the posterior clavicle.

The fibers of the five roots of the brachial plexus are firstly synthesized into the upper, middle and lower layers. The three branches of the brachial plexus form the medial bundle, the lateral bundle and the posterior bundle. The branches are mainly distributed in the upper limb and part of the chest and back. muscle. But now the wound-infected fungus has been rooted in the medial bundle, the lateral bundle and the posterior bundle. One side spreads from the three branches of the cranial nerve to the brain, and the other side goes to the thoracodorsal nerve, the thoracic nerve, the phrenic nerve, the musculocutaneous nerve, The median nerve, the radial nerve, and the ulnar nerve develop.

The main nerve root has been infected, and the finest part of the black line of the fungal infection has developed in the direction of the nerve branches of the upper thigh muscle, the superficial back muscle and the deep neck muscle.

If the fungus infects the nerve endings, the consequences will be unimaginable and the entire upper limb of the patient will be controlled by the parasite.

But now I can’t take care of the upper limb nerves. It is the most complicated brain pool area of ​​the brain. The brain pool is located at the bottom of the brain. It is the complex area where the brain, brain stem and cerebellum intersect. The complexity and precision of the activity is the most important and deadly area of ​​the human body.

It can be said that surgery in the cerebral cortex and lobes, although important, even if the surgery failed, or accidentally removed some brain tissue. That doesn’t matter much. Patients don’t die right away. At most, there are some sequelae of daze, mental retardation, and unresponsiveness. In the worst case, they become vegetables (vegetarians), and they can have a long time for the attending physician to clear the relationship.

There is plenty of time and reason for doctors to use various excuses to evade responsibility.

Therefore, this part of the brain has been used as an important medical breakthrough. For example, the infamous anterior cerebral lobectomy in the last century, the mental patients who have been removed from the anterior cerebral lobes are not living and healthy. And quiet, gentle like a small animal, so that this surgery is known as the dawn of healing mental illness.

This sensational achievement until people found that mental patients did not fall ill because they lost the ability to ill because they became half-vegetarians, and human beings were distinguished from other animals’ most essential abilities—thinking, being deprived! When this treatment mechanism was discovered, the operation was declared illegal.

But the brain pool area and the brain lobe are different in the area that can be used to brush the results in the last century. Before the microsurgery was created, it was once called the forbidden area. The mortality rate of the knife here is basically equivalent to the terminal illness. .

It is also because microsurgery breaks through the restricted area of ​​the brain pool, and it is qualified to be called the crown of surgery.

As a proud and proud honour for his own career, Strange is a former neurosurgeon who has to be transferred to a legal profession until his hands are disabled in a car accident. Of course, this position is tricky. In view of the degree of risk of parasitic nerves in the fungus, once it spreads to the brain pool, where the nerves are enriched, it is basically possible to declare that the rescue is invalid.

He had to remind Chen Ang: “We must stop it from spreading to the brain. Once it reaches the cisterna magna and the anterior medulla, it can infect the brain stem and the cerebral plexus, and it can spread to the spine. If infected, The degree is basically unhelpful!”

Chen Ang calmly observed the fungus silk: “It’s okay!”

Strange is nervous: “We must grab time… You still have a mood to say ‘okay’?”

Chen Ang replied very slowly: “Really good… The fungus has not developed a plexus, they are still simple nerve structures, and it can be seen that it is parasitic on the human nerve, allowing it to mimic the human nerve structure, but I have not continued to develop… I am really fortunate. This is well calculated!”

Strange looked at the fungus spreading on the nerves, and it was very urgent. Because of his self-confidence, he had to question: “I think the situation is very bad… Once the fungus infects the brain, we will Can declare the patient dead!”

“Young people, calm down. The situation is not as bad as you think!” Chen Ang is still not too slow to calm down.

Strange rushed to jump: “Isn’t this the worst? We sit and watch things go to the worst, what is worse than this?”

“In my surgical career, this is simple!” Chen Ang said with emotion: “There are many more than bad luck, such as the discovery of nerve plexuses on infected fungi, proving that fungi can not only make simple nerves. Reaction, but can ‘think’ and carry out complex neural activities… that is a more difficult situation.”

“It will react more complexly to your behavior.”

When Strange understood Hen Ang’s words, it was because he understood him that he was scared. Once the fungus was able to perform complex nerve activities, the most optimistic situation was ‘smarter’ than a brain parasite. They are completely ignorant of this fungal parasite, and do not know how it will respond to external stimuli, and do not know what stimulation the drug will cause.

Strange couldn’t help but sweat, saying: “This is really a worse situation!”

“What is that!” Chen Ang 嗤said with a smile : “Don’t forget, these fungi, from the alien race of high intelligence, I have already prepared for it to develop a complex nervous system before the surgery, better Only the dog’s IQ, the bad one can reach the level of the six-year-old child of dolphins, think about it, if the fungus that is parasitic on the nerves has the ability to think about six-year-old children…”

Stranch shudders, it is impossible surgery, surgery is an extremely precise and accurate work, doctors are most annoying variables, and a six-year-old child is parasitic on the patient’s nerves, this is not a variable – simply It is a disaster.

Chen Ang, while exposing the brachial plexus more in the field of vision, said: “Although the fungus has a higher level of intelligence, it is already tricky, but in my experiments… No, it is not the most difficult in the surgical career. of.”
