Chapter 495 (1/2)
”Can you still do this?” Zhang Ling was surprised.
Because there is basically no liver transplantation at this time, few people know.
”Where did you get the liver?” Lin Jing'an asked.
Guo Xiang smiled bitterly. He asked a key question.
”Normally, it's usually a dead man's liver. Of course, it's not completely dead, or it's going to die and can't be saved. Then take off the liver while his brain is dead. Of course, the blood type can match.” Guo Xiang said.
”Then where is such a coincidence?” Lin Jing'an's face looked desperate again.
”No, so another way is to cut a part of a normal person's liver for you.” Guo Xiang said again.
”Part? Does that work? ” Zhang Ling asked.
”Useful. The liver is the only organ that can regenerate in our body. After partial liver resection, hepatocytes decrease sharply. Because of the need for survival, the human body will feed back signals to the body to stimulate hepatocyte proliferation.”
”Residual hepatocytes change from basic non growth state to rapid growth state through cell proliferation, so as to compensate the lost and damaged liver tissue and restore the physiological function of the liver. This process is called liver regeneration. At the same time, the body can accurately perceive the size of the regenerated liver and stop liver regeneration in time. ”
”It may not as like as two peas in the liver, but basically it can meet the needs of the human body.” Guo Xiang said, ”in fact, as long as a quarter of the liver can survive.”
”Then cut off a part of my liver and give it to Lin Jing'an!” Zhang Ling blurted out.
”Zhang Ling!” Lin Jing'an looked at Zhang Ling in shock. Unexpectedly, she could do so for herself, but her feelings for her were not worth paying for herself.
Even she ran away because she was pregnant. Why is she still like this?
”Didn't sister-in-law say that the liver can regenerate? It'll be all right if you cut a part, won't it? ” Zhang Ling said hurriedly.
”That said...” Guo Xiang looked complex and looked at Zhang Ling. Miss, you're pregnant. Have you forgotten?
”It's not 100% without risk. There may be an accident in the process of taking the liver. No one can guarantee...” Guo Xiang said tactfully.
When Guo Xiang looked at Zhang Ling's stomach, she was surprised that she was pregnant. Isn't that ok?
”And you have to match your blood type.” Guo Xiang said again.
He picked up Lin Jingan's test sheet, because of various tests, of course, there are blood types. He has type a blood.
”What blood type are you?” Guo Xiang asked Zhang Ling.
”I don't know.” Zhang Ling shook his head. At this time, people usually don't have anything to do and won't test their blood type. Although she was pregnant, she didn't dare to have a pregnancy test openly, so she didn't know her blood type.
Lin Jing'an suddenly remembered that she had blocked a knife for herself when she was still in the county of southern Hunan. At that time, she lost a lot of blood. Would she have to sacrifice for herself again? She has such deep feelings for herself?
”Even if the blood type is consistent, it should not be.” Guo Xiang shook his head, ”because you are not his relative, you should not.”
Although there are no regulations in this regard, the source should be controlled from the first case, otherwise the flood of liver donation will be difficult to control in the future. People of the Medical Association will take this into account.
”And the most important thing.” Guo Xiang sighed, ”these are just theories. So far, no living donor liver transplantation has been successful!”
”Ah? Isn't that hopeless? ” Zhang Ling exclaimed.
”It's not hopeless. My teacher has done a number of animal experiments and successful examples, but he hasn't done it on people, so it's very risky!” Guo Xiang said.
”But there is still a glimmer of hope, isn't it?” Lin Jing'an looks at Guo Xiang.
