855 Catch the Worm (1/2)

\”Should be a tapeworm! So rare…\” Yu Yuan mumbled to herself.

Ling Ran had read about it before, so he just remembered some information about it before he acknowledged what Yu Yuan said, \”It's indeed a tapeworm.\”

Ma Yanlin looked with the corner of his eye while he thought secretly, 'While Yu Yuan is no good with surgeries, she's pretty good at recognizing parasites.'

Right then, Ling Ran said, \”Talk to the laboratory, ask them to look for worm eggs from the fecal examination and confirm the species.\”

Ma Yanlin quickly answered, \”Their laboratory has only one machine, and it's quite rare to see tapeworms now, right?\”

\”The last record of tapeworms in Yun Hua Hospital was three years ago.\” Yu Yuan possessed a strong memory. She had an expression on her face that said that she was recalling the past.

Ma Yanlin gasped in amazement. \”So, we have met something good.\”

The patient's facial expression became worried at this moment. He could not move, so he could only crane his neck and say, \”What did you see?\”

\”A parasite. We'll take it out, then you'll be fine after taking some medicine. Don't worry, and don't move,\” Ling Ran answered to comfort the patient and ensure that he could retain his posture for the surgery.

Yu Yuan did not have anything to do, so she also walked two steps forward and stood at a place where the patient could see her from the bed. She asked, \”Do you have a habit of eating raw pork or other frozen foods?\”

\”No,\” the patient denied.

\”Have you ever approached any cattle or the manure from cattle?\” Yu Yuan was asking about his lifestyle, and this was the standard procedure when encountering parasites.

At that moment, the patient felt so bloated that he could not describe the feeling. With a twisted expression, he said, \”I raise pigs at home, so of course, I come in touch with pig manure. A farmer's life is different from that of city people like you.\”

Yu Yuan slowly nodded, and after a few seconds, she asked, \”Then, do you fertilize the vegetable field with pig manure?\”

\”Sometimes.\”

\”You may have been infected that way.\” Yu Yuan asked a few more questions while she also made some records. For a patient who did not engage in any indecent sexual acts, never went out of the country and rarely went to other places, his life history tended to be simple. He raised pigs at home and used pig manure as fertilizer, so Yu Yuan did not need to have her imagination run wild and conjure up a scenario like a blonde girl from the United States ate the sashimi from Japan and decided to come to Bazhaixiang to search for the true meaning of life. During that time, she went insane and bit a middle-aged farmer and infected him with pork tapeworm.

At the same time, Ling Ran chased after the tapeworm to the ileocecal junction, and when the tapeworm squirmed upward along the ileocecal junction, Ling Ran quickly said, \”Grasping forceps.\”

Yu Yuan immediately turned around when she heard him.

Then, Ling Ran pushed the five-clawed grasping forceps into the body along the path of biopsy forceps and quickly clamped the midsection of the flat and golden tapeworm.

The tapeworm that originally kept moving in the intestines instantly curled up, as if it wanted to attack the grasping forceps made with alloy. Its appearance was like a skater boy who chased after his youth and dreams in a tunnel and wanted to crush a police car with his passion and speed.

\”You can pull it out directly.\” Yu Yuan's voice was laced with excitement, and she heaped praises on the tapeworm. \”It sure is big.\”

Ma Yanlin stared at the flat, yellowish worm that occupied most of the screen, and he could not help but shiver. \”It's really fat. I wonder what exactly it ate to get so fat.\”

\”Well, one thing's for sure, it doesn't eat feces.\” Yu Yuan cast a glance at him, then looked at the screen and said, \”If you look at it closely, it's quite cute.\”

\”Wh-Which part of it is cute, exactly?\” Ma Yanlin's voice was trembling.

\”For one, its color is pretty. There aren't many colorful animals in nature. The golden retriever in the city is normal compared with this tapeworm.\” Yu Yuan gulped before she continued, \”Besides, look at its body. It's so soft and seems really bouncy…\”

Ma Yanlin looked at Yu Yuan coldly.

Doctor Yu today was excited, just as usual, and her small body showed a strong sense of curiosity.
