Chapter 147: secondary hyperparathyroidism

Views:

The large conference room at the headquarters of the Tianji Bureau was full of seats, and the situation in the dissection room in Dongzhou was broadcast live on multiple screens.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Uncle Egg, Du Mingjun and other five elderly and experienced mobile task force doctors and anatomy experts walking into the dissection room. It's so inappropriate.

"This corpse is very difficult to handle. There are many mutations, deformities, and hyperplasia. It needs to be tidied up slowly."

In the observation team of anatomy experts at the headquarters, Xiao Huiwen, the leading middle-aged man, told his subordinates that everyone nodded their heads. This is indeed the reason.

Although the local solution has not yet been carried out, Dongzhou has already had a general understanding of the corpse of this ghoul through video and location inspections.

At this time, those image results were displayed on some of the screens. Imaging experts, clinical experts, biologists, etc. all reviewed and reviewed the images, and continued to discuss the imaging of every tissue in the corpse.

Whether all ghouls are like this is unknown, but Chen Fade's case shows that humans can transform into ghouls.

Therefore, this kind of alien is different from the dead skin man, and is essentially a mutant human body.

The abnormal changes of Chen Fade's bone marrow can be seen from the X-ray film, mainly including osteosclerosis, subperiosteal resorption, and cystic degeneration of bones, etc., accompanied by deformities of the chest and limbs, collapse of the chest, disordered structure, and high-intensity hyperplasia bone.

There are also symptoms shown by the results of bone imaging, ultrasound examination, radionuclide examination, etc., which remind the researchers of an endocrine disease.

Secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Even the horrific dog-faced face of the ghoul looks like a typical clinical manifestation of secondary hyperparathyroidism, the "lion-faced face":

Inflammatory bone hypertrophy leads to hyperplasia of facial cheekbones, gums, and mandibles. It looks like extruded eyes, and the nose, mouth, and chin are even taller. The shape of the maxillofacial bone becomes like the face of a poodle. , extremely weird.

"The transformation process from human to ghoul should have the same pathology as secondary hyperparathyroidism." This is a main hypothesis of the current researchers.

Maybe even mental abnormalities, because secondary hyperparathyroidism can lead to nervousness, irritability, and cognitive impairment in patients. It's just that the patient's mobility will also be significantly reduced at the same time, which does not match the mobility of the ghoul's high sensitivity, and the patient will not have that kind of hyperplastic bone.

So of course, this transformation has some unknown mutations to create this dark creature.

However, even the psychoneurological symptoms of secondary hyperparathyroidism cannot be explained clearly by existing medicine, let alone such things.

After all, imaging is imaging, and those blurred and more detailed situations on the image need local solutions to find answers.

"I still suggest to start with the hands first." Xiao Huiwen said again, with a steady face on his face, "Its claw-shaped nails and phalanges seem to have formed one piece. What is the change in the combination of horny and bone hyperplasia? What needs to be clarified is that the hands can also be warmed up first.”

"I don't know what Dongzhou thinks." He Tao, one of the members of the observation team, said, "It's just this one."

Everyone in the meeting room watched the live video, Gu Jun and the others were already surrounded by the dissection table, a total of eight people, all wearing white one-piece protective clothing, tight masks and gloves, even sitting by the door in the distance Wu Shiyu on the sofa was also wearing protective gear.

The fungus on the ghoul's skin has been sampled and analyzed, and it is temporarily found that they are just ordinary forest plaques, but isolation and protection work still needs to be done.

Dongzhou did not give a clear dissection plan, saying that it depends on Gu Jun's feelings.

So Xiao Huiwen, He Tao and the others are really in a complicated mood. After all, they are medical students, and they don't have so many literary talents. The egg and the dog are ruined.

Just that one.

At the same time, in the anatomy room of the Bureau Jie Building of Dongzhou Medical Department.

Beside the Yinliang dissecting table, everyone looked at the corpse of the ghoul on the stage, and also watched the video data, and they all knew that this was definitely not an easy job.

"Alas." Cai Zixuan sighed, thinking that this ghoul was transformed from a human, and perhaps once killed and cannibalized human beings, and now it will be dissected by humans, so he couldn't help but sigh softly: "This cruel joy will eventually come to an end." End in brutality."

"Cruel." Wang Ruoxiang said disapprovingly, "It's too kind to let it soak in formalin first."

It is also difficult for them to tell whether the smell of formalin is disgusting or the stench of this ghoul is disgusting.

This kind of smell is different from the usual corpse smell, even the highly corrupt corpses of giants are not enough to compare with it. It seems that many corpses are decomposed, digested, and mixed together, like every breath that wants to drill into the lungs of the breather. a cell.

"Let formalin wash away the smell, maybe that's a kind of kindness." Gu Jun murmured.

Wu Shiyu over there was a little dazed, what's going on? She, who studied painting, is not as artistic as they who study medicine.

But she had heard from Gu Jun that where there is Cai Zixuan, the atmosphere will naturally become Shakespearean.

"Everyone." Gu Jun held the Calop scalpel and dissecting scissors, which are his personal use, and others are not used to them. "Let's dissect the face first."

ah? Du Mingjun and other anatomy experts around were stunned, and there was even an exclamation from the conference room at the headquarters, it was the face as soon as it came up!

The most obvious, and possibly one of the most important traits of a ghoul mutation, the dog face

"Too urgent, too urgent." Xiao Huiwen said anxiously, there is only one face, which is different from having two limbs, and this is just the beginning!

Others are also anxious, the headquarters is communicating with Dongzhou Command Center in real time, and Yao Shinian is also watching at this time.

As for Uncle Dan and Du Mingjun, who were wearing communication headsets, Uncle Dan passed on a message: "Ah Jun, do you think the boss should take it easy?"

"Time is running out." Gu Jun said. He didn't tell them the plan before because he didn't want to have more accidents. "Ghouls can manipulate the spirit. The head is probably the most important. If there are any clues, it is here. We have to get them out quickly." Finding out the clues is the purpose of anatomy, and it may lose its meaning and function if it is too late."

What he said made sense, and no one could refute it, but the conference room of the headquarters and the Dongzhou Command Center were all shrouded in anxiety.

"Let's get started." Gu Jun looked at the dog-faced face with protruding eyes, and silently opened the system panel in his mind.

[Abyss Mission: Complete the dissection of 1 ghoul within a week. Task Reward: Unknown]

Since it is an abyss mission, apart from the difficulty of finding the anatomy target, the requirements for the degree of anatomy must be very meticulous, and there may even be unexpected situations.

Come on, let's get started and accept the task.

[Accept the mission is complete! Current anatomy completion: 0%, current remaining time: 167:59:]

The corpse was lying on its back. Cai Zixuan used anatomical cushions to raise its shoulders and tilted its head back. Gu Jun continued to make skin incisions. Although there was no gunshot wound on this face, it was the face of a ghoul. , the skin has become different.

Watching him slashing around with a weird scalpel, incisions in the middle of the face, incisions on the edge of the mandible...

Be careful, be careful! Xiao Huiwen, He Tao and others were very nervous, just like watching Er Gouzi rudely treat the incomparably delicate skin of his goddess.
