The intersection of medical and industrial fields has made new breakthroughs in the field of gynecological treatment: Fudan University Affiliated Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital completed Shanghai's first 5G+AI ultra remote domestic robot minimally invasive surgery on the 25th. Professor Hua Keqin of the hospital used ultra remote technology to perform laparoscopic surgery on Ningxia women with multiple uterine fibroids and anemia from 2000 kilometers away. This is also the first domestically produced robot assisted 5G+AI ultra remote gynecological laparoscopic surgery in East China. Clinical and enterprise cooperation to break through technology will better meet the health needs of patients and promote the expansion and sinking of high-quality medical resources in China.

Patient Aunt Wang discovered uterine fibroids during a physical examination 8 years ago, and her condition continued to change. She was diagnosed with multiple uterine fibroids combined with anemia and required a total hysterectomy. Ningxia has limited local high-quality medical resources and has been cooperating with Shanghai for nearly a decade. After discussion, the two sides have decided to use the "Robot 5G+AI Ultra Remote Surgery Plan" to relieve patients' pain and avoid commuting between doctors and patients.

On the 25th, Professor Hua Keqin started operating on the robot platform with high-definition field of view assistance. The robotic arm that received instructions transmitted data in real-time to thousands of miles away, remotely completing various surgical operations such as dissection, separation, cutting, and suturing. Medical staff from Shanghai and Ningxia connected in real-time through "zero lag" to discuss plans and adjust instruments. The entire surgery lasted for 2 hours, and the operation was efficient, smooth, and accurate.

It is reported that the domestically produced robot used in surgery is Tumai, independently developed by Shanghai Minimally Invasive Company ® Endoscopic surgical robot. The Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital participated in the research and development process of this domestically produced robot system for clinical application in gynecology. Experts explain that with the support of a major project by the Municipal Science and Technology Commission, this four arm laparoscopic robot, which is the first in China to use 5G+AI technology to achieve ultra remote surgery, has broken through technological barriers in core software and hardware and achieved self-developed and self-produced capabilities. Professor Hua Keqin's team participated in the research and development process of fine operation actions such as robot size and volume, cutting and hemostasis, providing a systematic and intuitive evaluation of operations in the field of gynecology.

Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital is one of the earliest hospitals in China to introduce robots, and has completed nearly a thousand robot assisted gynecological surgeries, including many difficult and complicated cases. Dean Jiang Hua stated that the hospital continues to explore innovative smart healthcare through information technology construction and the application of 5G+AI technology. Previously, the first 5G one-stop birth defect prevention and control platform in China has been launched. This upgrade has achieved a technological breakthrough, in order to assist more patients in need and play a more "red house" role in the construction of national regional medical centers.

Why is "Cancer King" immunotherapy ineffective? Fudan Cancer Hospital Reveals New Mechanisms of Immunosuppressive Environment for pancreatic cancer CRIP1 | Tumor | pancreatic cancer

Immunotherapy has been proven to achieve significant therapeutic effects in various solid tumors. However, for pancreatic cancer, known as the "king of cancer", immunotherapy has been ineffective. On August 4, Professor Yu Xianjun, Dean of the Cancer Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, and Shi Si, Associate Professor of Pancreatic Surgery released a research achievement, which first found the key role of cysteine rich protein 1 in shaping the immunosuppressive microenvironment of pancreatic cancer, filled the gap in the research field of immunosuppressive microenvironment of pancreatic cancer, and provided a theoretical basis for precise immunotherapy of pancreatic cancer patients. Ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is the main type of pancreatic cancer, accounting for about 90% of all pancreatic cancer. Due to its high malignancy and poor treatment effectiveness, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma has always been one of the most malignant tumors. In recent years, the level of surgical techniques and comprehensive treatment has been achieved

A 14-year-old girl has been experiencing symptoms such as protruding pupils, incomplete eye closure, corneal injury, restricted eye movement, and overall fatigue for several years. The physical discomfort and facial abnormalities caused by eye diseases have made her increasingly reticent, and her temperament is vastly different from before. At the Ophthalmology Department of the Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, the pupil has been diagnosed with a rare thyroid ophthalmopathy combined with myasthenia gravis, which requires prompt treatment. However, considering the young age of the pupil, conventional hormone and radiation therapy cannot be used. Therefore, Zhou Huifang, Deputy Director of Ophthalmology and thyroid ophthalmology expert, has developed a targeted drug combined with surgical treatment plan for it, and targeted drug treatment will be performed first. Three months ago, I was hospitalized for one week with mydriasis and received intravenous targeted drug treatment. Afterwards, I went home for observation and followed up on time

Recently, Catherine, a British girl born in the 1990s, received autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transfusion at the Cancer Center of Shanghai Jiahui International Hospital, and was successfully discharged from the warehouse. She is now on her way back to China after being discharged from the hospital. She is also the first patient at Shanghai Jiahui International Hospital to complete relevant treatments. In 2019, Catherine was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma in the UK, and after treatment, the disease completely improved. During her work and life in China in 2021, she went to seek medical attention due to multiple enlarged lymph nodes. Pathological biopsy confirmed a recurrence of Hodgkin's lymphoma, and through combined targeted drug treatment, her condition was temporarily under control. Last year in the second half of the year, when the disease recurred, the girl began to use immunotherapy combined with targeted drugs for treatment. Expert evaluation suggests that for young patients with hematological tumors, the risk of recurrence is high and treatment difficulty is increasing in the future. Autologous hematopoietic stem cell therapy is recommended
