What is more expensive than gold? What is more difficult than launching a satellite?

  A patient with advanced cancer who had intestinal obstruction for almost 2 months after chemotherapy and no defecation and venting was referred to me from an oncology hospital. The question given to me was whether to solve the problem of laxation and ventilation! There is no doubt that the gastric cancer was advanced, combined with abdominal metastasis and obvious intestinal mucus. The treatment of intestinal obstruction at this time has been tried long time ago with the efforts of specialists! It is very difficult, I just replied that one can try hard to see.  There is no doubt that there can be no new answer according to the old way.  It is very difficult to see patients with intestinal obstruction and no gas, fluid and gas-liquid flat on X-ray. This patient is that.  After a systematic treatment, focused on targeting intestinal function repair. The patient started to pass a small amount of stool and some farting every day since the 2nd day after finally being hospitalized!  The patient was so happy that he said, “I haven’t farted and passed stool for more than a month. This stool is more expensive than gold, and farting is harder than releasing a satellite!”  As a doctor who majors in intestinal and bowel-related diseases, to be able to make a patient smile! I already feel very relieved. We usually treat many patients with intestinal obstruction, but this patient’s case and having another bowel movement and venting after such a long obstruction is a small record breaker!  Our complex bowel disease team is working tirelessly for all kinds of intractable abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, etc.! We are working hard for the diagnosis of all kinds of difficult bowel diseases!
