Chapter 548: Chapter 251: Double Heart? The Confident Young Man (Part 2)

"Dr. Li, could you please take another look for me? He said there’s nothing major wrong, but I find it hard to believe. When I woke up this morning, I really felt terrible."

The female patient spoke quite politely.

Her figure wasn’t particularly obese, just slightly plump.

Li Jingsheng listened and immediately took the stethoscope to re-examine her heart and lung sounds.

At first, everything sounded normal.

But after listening for a moment, his brow furrowed slightly.

Because he felt the patient’s heart sound seemed a bit heavy, yet not quite.

How to put it, it was like there was one heartbeat followed by a sound.

Thud!

Then there was a lighter sound that immediately repeated, but combined with the previous heart sound, making it feel somewhat heavy.

"Can you raise your hands above your head? Sort of like stretching."

Li Jingsheng said to the patient.

The female patient glanced at him, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Were it not for Li Jingsheng’s solemn expression, she might suspect the young male doctor of being a bit improper.

However, she obediently complied.

Dr. Shao glanced at her, unable to resist looking away, then inadvertently returned his gaze, continuing to watch.

Li Jingsheng seemed much more professional, openly staring, brows furrowed, listening carefully to the changes in heart sound.

"Yes, yes, that’s it from before. Lift your right hand and slightly press down to the right."

Equivalent to bending sideways to the right.

She complied.

This time, Li Jingsheng heard clearly, there were indeed two heartbeats.

This was definitely abnormal.

Normally, there should only be one heart sound.

Could the patient have double hearts?

This type of malformation exists, but there are fewer than three cases worldwide, and many die young, even shortly after birth.

Only one female patient in Australia was born with three hands, a strange tumor on the back.

That was the fourth hand, fused with the back’s skin and flesh.

A medical examination revealed the baby was an extremely rare twin abnormality fetus. Essentially two babies squeezed into a single body.

It also found many internal organs of this baby were duplicated, with some shared.

Later surgery removed the third hand and the so-called tail, which was actually the fourth leg.

The other leg was located in the abdominal cavity.

After surgery, the infant’s appearance seemed more normal.

Thanks to the parents’ careful nurturing, the child luckily survived.

Since then, she retained many duplicated organs in her system.

Until the age of twenty-one, she died during pregnancy.

Li Jingsheng felt especially amazed upon learning of this medical case.

But from then, he knew some individuals might truly have duplicated internal organs.

The female patient’s heartbeats were repeated and combined.
