The famous French musical actor Laurent Ban is starring in the musical "Mozart on Rock" in Shanghai. Recently, he encountered a fishbone stuck in his throat before the performance and had to go to Ruijin Hospital for emergency treatment.
Afterwards, Laurent Ban posted on social media to express his gratitude to Chen Yongxuan, a doctor in the facial features department of Ruijin Hospital: "Thank you for saving me."
Laurent Ban said that Dr. Chen not only saved him, also saved the entire show.
Laurent Ban is a French musical actor and an Internet celebrity on Chinese social media. He is affectionately called "Old Flight" by Chinese audiences. Since its first performance in China in 2005, this "flight" has frequently traveled back and forth between China and France, building a bridge of musical dialogue.
Some netizens said that this may not be common in foreign countries, but for Chinese doctors, pulling out fish bones is a piece of cake.
The topic "Why are only Chinese doctors good at removing fish bones" has even been on the hot search.
The fundamental reason why Chinese doctors are so good at pulling out fish bones is that Chinese people eat too many "fish bones". The Chinese eat a lot of freshwater fish, so they encounter more "thorns".
Some people also said that pulling out fish bones seems simple, but it is actually very complicated, and there will be serious consequences if it is not handled properly.
Folks have many "homespun methods" to deal with fish bones, but they are not scientific. You must not be careless. Serious cases can be fatal!
Wang Guangbao, deputy chief physician of the General Surgery Department of Pujiang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Zhejiang Province, once shared "The fatal journey of a fish bone" on his personal Weibo:
. The first place where fish bones are fatal: near the throat
Most fish bones are stuck at the base of the tongue , tonsils, and epiglottis. If it is not removed in time, it will cause infection at the site where the fish bone penetrated and lead to local abscess. The posterior pharyngeal wall is connected to the loose tissue deep in the neck, which can easily lead to the spread of infection and the formation of large abscesses deep in the neck. These abscesses can compress the trachea and cause suffocation to death, or they can rupture through the large blood vessels in the neck and be fatal in minutes. .
. The second fatal place of fish bones: esophagus
If the fish bones pierce the esophagus, it will only penetrate shallowly at first, and the doctor can take it out under an esophagoscope or gastroscope. At this time, if you use the method of swallowing rice balls, the fish bones will penetrate deeper, and some of them will directly pierce the aorta.
The esophagus and aorta are almost always attached together. Some fish bones pierce the aorta directly. What is the concept of fishbone piercing the aorta? You take a sewing needle and prick a balloon to see if it pops with a "bang" sound. Aortic bleeding is worse than a balloon bursting, and there is a danger of death every minute.
3. The third fatal part of fish bones: puncture the stomach, gastric perforation
Gastric perforation can cause peritonitis, and if not treated surgically in time, death will occur. Another situation is that after the fish bone pierces the stomach wall, it slowly penetrates, and then is wrapped by the surrounding tissue, and then slowly runs around, even into the liver.
4. The fourth fatal part of fish bones: puncture the small intestine
Piercing the small intestine can also cause severe peritonitis, which can kill people.
5. The fifth fatal place for fish bones: appendix
Puncture of the appendix leads to inflammation, and perforation of the appendix leads to diffuse peritonitis. Of course surgery is required to remove the appendix.
6. The sixth fatal part of fish bones: punctured large intestine
There are many bacteria in the large intestine. After perforation, the abdominal cavity is seriously contaminated, the intestinal wall is thin, and the blood supply is poor. Therefore, diffuse peritonitis caused by punctured large intestine is very fatal.
Final reminder, keep one thing in mind when choosing a department: the dental department does not remove fish bones, if the fish bones are stuck, you need to see the otolaryngology department.
Although the thorns are inserted through the mouth, generally, the locations where the fishbones get stuck are in the throat and below, such as the base of the tongue, tonsillar recesses, epiglottis vallecula, etc. These are within the "jurisdiction" of the Department of Otolaryngology.
