She told t∏☆♣÷he reporter that thanks to Kaiyi Hospiα©tal’s scrupulous care she was able to recover nic€✘‍€ely, and she gave thumbs★&-up repeatedly to the medical service offered ↔≥by the hospital.

Radiology report

As presented by Dr. Hongsong Zhang, Chieβπf of Critical Care Medicinσδγe Department, Kaiyi Hospitδ✔al, “The patient’s hemangioma is intractableπε because on the one hand☆§, the tumor body is l¶€λarge in size and on the other hand it is accoΩ♠€"mpanied with many small heman<®giomas.”

Hepatic hemangiomas

Hepatic hemangiomas are the most common benδ≈ign hepatic neoplasm, among which t​&₽ he cavernous hemangioma of÷‍₽ liver is the most frequent↑£∑. This disease is common among mid→<✘dle-aged women. The cause of this disease i§±λπs still unknown, but many©₹§¶ hold the view that it is related to cγ✘$ongenital dysplasia. Hepatic he∏ ≠mangioma is mostly un"∞₹ilateral existence which incidence rate is•£× roughly the same in the left liver and iβ♦®n the right liver.

Tumors grow slowly and have course of >π£disease which can last for years or more. When ©☆the tumor body is small↕¶>, it does not present any clinical symptom. But a↕‌Ω few tumors increase gradually in s ±±ize and compress the organs surr&↕±<ounding them triggering clinical symptoms, sεδδ o surgical excision is the most effe™™¥ctive way for the cure of this disease.

The expert team of internal medicine o®γf Kaiyi Hospital und÷‍er the leadership of Dr. Zhe Shen, President of§←• the hospital, performed the re←₹×★section of hemangioma by means of int✘$✔ervention using contrast medium embolism under ‌γ★DSA.

In fact, under the circum¶±←•stance of intervention, other★↕ ¶ operations can be fea←¶∑sible, among which at present,♠& the operable ones include coronary arteδ‌riography and stent intervention, as well  σ←<as filter placement in lower limb artery,↑​₽ which further solves thrombus ofλλ‍↕ lower extremity veins, arterial thr₹≈ombus and other problems.

In addition to the hardcore techniques, our hospγΩital cooperates closely with the expert team led♣​≠ by Dr. Junkai Sun from Interventi™Ω on, Wuxi No.5 People’s$↔≠λ Hospital, under whose guidance a β variety of operations including tumor, radi≈↔$ofrequency ablation, ste₹πnt intervention and embolism have been performed♥©. Meanwhile, they will provide regular con‍₩sultation in our hospital.

Since the beginning of its foundation, the "↑☆∑hospital has been positio ≥★αned as a high-end and high-qua'<>₹lity hospital. Departing from the discipline con♠¥struction concept of minimal invas$☆ion of surgery, interventiλ∑on of internal medicine, moleculariza₹'tion of clinical laboratory, a↓•nd clinicalization of functional inspec≠≈☆≠tion, recently more than one giant←  facility has been installed successively in tααhe hospital, among which in p±±articular DSA, a specific machine$& for angiocardiography, enable>↓s the hospital to make considerable progress and€​≠σ enhancement in the technique oγ<σ×f internal medicine.
