　　看著林老緩緩離去的背影和蹣跚的步履，陳偉良教授馬上叫住了患者，關(guān)切地問(wèn)了一句，“你的肚子不舒服嗎?”?！袄厦×?，以前下面有個(gè)包塊，時(shí)有時(shí)無(wú)，無(wú)疼痛感，但最近時(shí)不時(shí)覺(jué)得有點(diǎn)痛?！绷掷闲邼刂噶酥缸髠?cè)大腿根部。陳教授給林老再做一次檢查，發(fā)現(xiàn)大腿根部有一腫塊，上端狹小，下端寬大，狀似梨形。陳教授微微皺了皺眉頭，立即撥通了胃腸外科陳雙教授的電話。約10分鐘左右，陳雙教授來(lái)了。在了解病情后，檢查證實(shí)了林老還患了腹股溝斜疝……

　　One-stage surgery resulted in two healings

　　Mr. Lin, an 80 yea
old senior engineer, had a mandibular osteonecrosis with ulceration and purulence at the region of his cheek as complication due to radiotherapy treatment given agai
t his oral cancer.

　　After being traumatized both physiologically and psychologically, Mr. Lin was finally accompanied by his family to the Stomatology Department of the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital (SYSMH), Zhongshan Unive
ity for treatment.

　　After careful examination, Prof. Wei Liang Chen, the director of the Stomatology Department advised Mr. Lin that the necrotic bone must be removed as soon as possible and have his mandible reco
tructed. Mr. Lin accepted Prof. Chen’s treatment plan immediately.

　　However, Prof. Chen looked carefully back to Mr. Lin and to the way by which he was walking, and then asked Mr. Lin: “Have you ever felt any discomfort at your abdomen?”, then he replied: “That is my problem! I have been feeling this swelling here which sometimes appea
and disappea
. It wasn’t painful before, but now I am feeling a little pain these last days”.

　　Mr. Lin bashfully then pointed to his left groin region. Prof. Chen examined and found a pear-shaped lump, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. Prof. Chen slightly squint his eyes and phoned Prof. Shuang Chen of the GI Surgery Department. Soon, Prof. Shuang Chen came and confirmed that Mr. Lin had indeed an indirect inguinal hernia.

　　This old fellow, who experienced a lot in his life and suffered a great deal with an unexpected osteonecrosis and an unnoticed hernia, will finally receive a proper treatment by Dr Wei Liang Chen and Dr. Shuang Chen. They agreed to proceed an one-stage surgery to release Mr. Lin longtime suffering and optimize the whole process as well as to improve the prognostic of the whole situation.

　　The perfect cooperation between two professo
resulted in two surgeries done in 80 minutes. This one-stage surgery not only resolved the patient suffering but also saved 30% in financial costs and 50% in reducing days of stay in hospital.
