On the afternoon of June+10/October 9, 5438, worker Qin Xiao went to work in a die casting factory in Nantong as usual. While Qin Xiao was working, dangers and accidents came quietly. There was a sudden explosion in the workshop, and the molten aluminum melted at high temperature was directly sprayed to the working Qin Xiao under the pressure of the explosion. It is understood that before Xiao Qin could escape, the aluminum liquid directly penetrated Xiao Qin's four layers of clothes and shot into his chest. At this moment, it was like being shot, and a bullet-like burnt meat was formed in Xiao Qin's chest. Xiao Qin instantly fell to the ground, unable to bear severe pain. When the workers saw it, they immediately sent him to the Affiliated Hospital of Tongzhou University for rescue.
After Xiao Qin's operation went to the Affiliated Hospital of Datong University, the doctor found an open wound on his chest, about 2 square centimeters, surrounded by solidified aluminum slag. According to CT and other examinations, the molten aluminum infiltrated into the body is not only distributed in the subcutaneous tissue, but even worse, the molten aluminum flows into the back of the rib along the rib space, that is, inside the chest cavity, like being ejected by a quilt, and inside the wound, it is distributed between the subcutaneous tissue and the rib to form one aluminum block after another, which is gradually solidified by the molten aluminum. More dangerously, the front end of aluminum liquid has spread to the outer capsule area of the heart. If molten aluminum is re-injected into 1 mm, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Under the strong medical team of the Affiliated Hospital of Datong University and the surgical team mainly composed of the director and deputy director of cardiothoracic surgery, the doctors fully analyzed and discussed Xiao Qin's condition before operation and formulated a complete plan. On June 5438+1October 65438+1October 0 1, the operation was performed, and dozens of aluminum blocks were taken out during the operation. The operation is very difficult because the aluminum block is close to the heart.
After more than two hours of fighting by doctors, a dozen irregular aluminum blocks were taken out one by one, and the operation was very successful. After the operation, under the supervision of the nursing team, Xiao Qin has gradually recovered his vital signs. At present, she has been transferred to the Department of Burn and Plastic Surgery of Tongda Affiliated Hospital for subsequent chest wall flap transplantation and repair treatment.
According to Professor You Qingsheng, director of cardiothoracic surgery, the difficulty of this operation is that the melting temperature of aluminum liquid is at least above 600℃. For the human body, such a dangerous temperature will definitely penetrate clothes and enter the human body, and the degree of danger is unimaginable. However, it is very rare for molten aluminum to burn through the chest wall and spread to the heart, which is also a great test for the medical staff in the operation. However, under the serious and responsible treatment and care of medical staff, Xiao Qin has long been out of danger and is currently undergoing follow-up burn plastic surgery. At the same time, I wish Xiaoqin an early recovery, and I hope readers will pay more attention to safety in their work!
