CAR‑T addresses how to eliminate existing tumors; transplantation addresses how to prevent tumor recurrence. Each modality bears unique strengths. Treatment selection depends on disease subtype, risk stratification, treatment response and physical condition, and requires thorough discussion with attending clinicians.

Anesthesia is the key challenge for ultra-elderly surgery. To avoid harm to cardiopulmonary function from conventional endotracheal general anesthesia and reduce risks of pneumonia, delayed emergence and cognitive dysfunction, the anesthesiology team adopted ultrasound-guided regional nerve block combined with intravenous sedation. The patient maintained spontaneous breathing without intubation while surgical pain was effectively controlled.

Seven CAR‑T products have gained regulatory approval in China, predominantly targeting CD19 (for B‑cell leukaemia and lymphoma) and BCMA (for multiple myeloma). Each product has distinct indications. At experienced centres such as Beijing Boren Hospital, clinicians select optimal CAR‑T products tailored to each patient’s disease profile, subtype and target antigen expression.

Should patients receive a transplant after CAR‑T‑induced remission? When is the optimal timing? Is there hope for a second transplant? Will TP53 gene mutation inevitably result in relapse? These are frequent questions raised by parents of children with hematologic malignancies. In this session, Director Li Zhihui from Beijing Boren Hospital answers these key concerns one by one.

A Bangladeshi patient with obstructive colon cancer and liver metastasis traveled far to Foshan Fosun Chancheng Hospital for treatment. The hospital’s MDT team completed three complex procedures in an 8‑hour one‑stage surgery: stoma closure, laparoscopic left hemicolectomy and anatomical segment 4 hepatectomy. Thanks to bilingual nursing and full coordination by the International Medical Center, the patient recovered well and was discharged safely.

A Chinese American crossed oceans to receive life-saving treatment for gastric cancer at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital. Having failed multiple therapies in the US, he was treated with CT041, the world’s first approved CAR-T therapy for solid tumors. Led by Dr. Zheng Yu’s team. The patient tolerated treatment well; his wound healed and condition improved. Targeting CLDN18.2, CT041 cuts progression or death risk by 63% for heavily pre-treated gastric cancer patients.

Congenital deafness occurs at an incidence of roughly 2 per 1,000 births, among which 50% to 60% stem from genetic factors. Over 140 pathogenic genes for hereditary deafness have been identified to date. Chen Ying and her supervisor Professor Wu Hao’s team focus on mutations in the OTOF gene, a leading cause of auditory neuropathy in children. Affected children are not completely deafThey can detect sound,yet perceive it as if through frosted glass.

“Medical tourism sits at the intersection of healthcare, trade and economic development. Over the next three to five years, China’s inbound medical tourism will experience rapid expansion. China is confident and capable of becoming a leading global medical‑tourism destination,” Dr. Hsiang concluded.

What Are the Advantages of da Vinci Robotic Liver Surgery? ✅ High-definition 3D vision: 10–15× optical magnification to clearly visualize blood vessels and bile ducts for more precise anatomical work. ✅ Wristed flexible instruments: Multi-angle rotation, greater dexterity than human hands for fine suturing in complex sites. ✅ Fluorescence-guided liver resection: Positive/counter staining technology defines liver segment borders, removing lesions while preserving healthy liver

A 30-year-old woman diagnosed with papillary thyroid carcinoma worried about neck scars due to her keloid-prone skin. At Foshan Fosun Chancheng Hospital, Director Du Guoneng performed Da Vinci robotic-assisted thyroid surgery via a hidden axillary access. No neck incision, minimal bleeding, complete lesion removal & lymph node dissection while protecting nerves and parathyroid glands. Robotic thyroid surgery helps patients win both cancer treatment and cosmetic results.

The 1st International Oncology Treatment Forum was held in Foshan by Fosun Health, gathering 200+ oncology experts from 15 nations. The Global Oncology Collaboration Alliance was launched to build cross‑border tele‑consultation and second‑opinion networks. Sessions covered precision radiotherapy, CyberKnife, BNCT, CAR‑T and TCM‑integrated oncology. Fosun Health also unveiled its end‑to‑end navigation model for overseas cancer patients, advancing patient‑centred global medical

Can gaming‑style workouts support upper‑limb rehabilitation? The upper‑limb scenario‑based training system combines virtual gamified tasks with clinical rehabilitation targets. Leveraging task‑oriented training, neuroplastic activation and real‑time biofeedback, it greatly improves patient adherence for stroke, brain‑injury and post‑surgery upper‑limb recovery. Technology makes repetitive rehab less tedious and more motivating for patients at Jianjia Rehabilitation Hospital.

Must Type 2 diabetes mean lifelong pills? A 45‑year‑old man with poorly‑controlled diabetes, fatty liver and abdominal obesity achieved remarkable improvements after 3‑month personalized metabolic intervention at Foshan Fosun Chancheng Hospital’s Diabetes‑Obesity Remission Center. Multidisciplinary teams delivered nutritional guidance, tailored exercise and whole‑process follow‑up. Note: diabetes remission is not cure; professional medical assessment is essential before inter

Can regenerative rehabilitation change diabetic‑foot amputation outcomes? Professor Bi Sheng, chief expert at Jianjia Healthcare, developed an autologous blood‑cell combined PRP implantation technique for in‑situ microvascular regeneration. Instead of only recanalizing large arteries, this therapy builds new perfusion networks in ischemic tissue. Clinical cases show improved wound healing, restored walking capacity and higher limb‑salvage rates for patients.

Gastrointestinal bleeding may also be accompanied by: palpitations, dizziness, darkening of vision, cold sweats, fatigue, shortness of breath, and even syncope. These often indicate that the bleeding volume is already large and the body can no longer compensate. However, sometimes eating too much duck blood, pork liver, or certain iron supplements can also turn stool black, but it is usually not shiny or sticky and disappears after stopping the medication or food.

Influencers from 11 countries visited HYGEIA Chang An Hospital in Xi’an for immersive cross‑border medical experience. They explored cutting‑edge radiotherapy equipment, smart health‑check workflows and traditional Chinese medicine therapies. As a Grade‑A Tertiary general hospital, Chang An Hospital delivers full‑cycle cancer care and barrier‑free international patient services, showcasing Xi’an’s open‑minded, high‑quality global‑standard healthcare.

A delegation from Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital travelled to Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan under the Belt and Road framework. Experts delivered live minimally‑in‑surgery demonstrations, keynote lectures and signed MOU for long‑term medical‑education & clinical collaboration. From complex renal‑tumour resection to high‑risk coronary‑intervention, Chinese‑medical expertise benefits Central‑Asian patients, advancing the “Health Silk Road” and building a Global Community of Health for Al

Recently, Taikang Xianlin Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School successfully treated a patient suffering from uremia after rectal cancer surgery. With full collaboration led by Director Zhou Hetong from the Department of Urology, together with the Intensive Care Unit, Nephrology Department, Oncology Department and Anesthesia & Operation Center, the patient’s condition turned for the better and he was discharged smoothly.

When doctors first mentioned a "heart transplant," Grandmother Li instinctively recoiled: "A heart can be transplanted? Can I withstand such a risk?" It was the medical team, who repeatedly visited her bedside, explaining the surgical procedure in simple terms and dispelling fears with past successful cases. It was also the constant companionship and gentle encouragement from her family that finally gave her the courage to sign the transplant registration form solemnly.

Appendicitis does not always require surgical removal. For some patients, recovery can be achieved merely by relieving obstruction and controlling inflammation. The Department of Gastroenterology at Taikang Xianlin Drum Tower Hospital, Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School, has recently adopted a new technique — Endoscopic Direct‑Vision Appendicitis Therapy (EDAT) — making appendix‑preserving and precise treatment achievable.
