Wrong leech therapy was killing him! He stuck it on his neck, poisoning his entire body

"Our patient had leech therapy abroad due to a swelling in his neck. Following this, a cyst there abscessed, leading to a widespread abscessed infection that began in the head and neck region and spread to the lungs, the areas above the heart, and his neck. The patient was then forced to remain on a ventilator for a long time. Various drainage procedures were performed at the hospital where he arrived to clear the abscesses that had infected his body, but they were unsuccessful. Due to his prolonged reliance on the ventilator, a fatal pneumonia developed in his lungs. The patient was in a pre-existing state (pre-death stage). His blood pressure and pulse were low, his kidney and liver functions were severely affected, and his brain functions were also poor. We performed a series of operations involving various departments in Samsun. At the end of a series of seven operations, large and small, involving ear, nose, and throat surgery, cardiovascular surgery, thoracic surgery, and plastic surgery, we were able to drain the abscesses and infections in the area and close the resulting open wounds, thus enabling the patient to be discharged. During these procedures, We gradually overcame his severe pneumonia through teamwork. The patient is currently in good general condition and has been discharged. He has no open wounds, can function normally, and his infection rate is nearing zero. The discharge of a patient in such a critical condition after 40 days of dedicated teamwork is a successful product of serious teamwork.
