March 12, 2025, Manila, Philippines<\/strong> \u2013 The Chinese General Hospital and Medical Center (CGHMC) celebrated a milestone in pediatric liver transplantation, performed at Renji Hospital in Shanghai, China.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
This achievement was highlighted during a media briefing held at the CGHMC Auditorium. Special guests included the Chinese Embassy Consul General, representatives from Mindray, and Ms. Teresita Ang-See. The Philippine Ambassador to China, His Excellency Jaime FlorCruz, and Department of Health Secretary Teodoro Herbosa also shared their congratulatory messages via video.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
In his welcome remarks, Mr. Kelly Sia, President and CEO of CGHMC, thanked Dr. Xia Qiang, President of Renji Hospital, as well as the medical teams from both institutions. The milestone pediatric liver transplant, performed on a two-year-old child with biliary atresia, represents a beacon of hope for children afflicted with liver disease.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\u201cThis incredible feat would not have been possible without the unwavering support of our partners. We express our gratitude to Renji Hospital for this medical collaboration, the Philippine Chinese Charitable Association, Inc., and Mindray, as well as the assistance of Ms. Teresita Ang-See, the founding president of Kaisa Para sa Kaunlaran, and our medical team led by Dr. Samuel Ang, Dr. Sammy Cunanan, and Dr. Noruel Gerard Salvador.\u201d<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Just last year, CGHMC formed an alliance with Renji Hospital through a signed Memorandum of Understanding, enabling its medical professionals to elevate their skills in liver transplantation. This partnership has facilitated knowledge-sharing, provided insights into the latest advancements, and ultimately contributed to reducing childhood mortality, minimizing complications, and improving liver transplant outcomes by enhancing access to organ donors.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\u201cToday, we proudly witness the fruits of that collaboration. A child has been given a new lease on life,\u201d said Mr. Sia.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\n

The young patient was diagnosed with biliary atresia, a rare liver disease that blocks the bile ducts, potentially leading to liver damage if left untreated. A living donor transplant was successfully performed, with the child\u2019s father serving as the donor. In a heartfelt video testimonial, the mother tearfully recalled their journey\u2014from the moment of diagnosis to the countless hospital visits in search of treatment options.<\/p>\n\n

According to Mr. Sia, \u201cLiver transplantation is the standard treatment and a life-saving operation for children with liver disease. This milestone pediatric liver transplant opens doors for more accessible and affordable transplantation in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

The successful medical cooperation coincided with the 50th anniversary of China-Philippines diplomatic relations, adding deeper significance to this partnership with Renji Hospital.<\/p>\n\n

This global collaboration has not only opened doors for CGHMC but has also provided its doctors with a valuable opportunity to train at one of the world\u2019s largest liver transplant centers.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\nIn his inspirational message, Chairman Antonio Tan of the Philippine Chinese Charitable Association, Inc. (PCCAI) shared that since the signing of the MOU with Renji Hospital, two batches of CGHMC doctors have already been sent for training in liver transplantation. \u201cWe are hopeful for more meaningful cooperation in the future for the benefit of our people and the good of our country.\u201d\n\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

His Excellency Ambassador Jaime A. FlorCruz sent a video message from Beijing. \u201cI am thrilled to join you in this joyous occasion\u2014a celebration of a new lease on life and a testament to the successful collaboration between China and the Philippines in the field of medicine.\u201d He recalled meeting the young patient after the transplant procedure. \u201cEyes wide open, hands waving, face smiling\u2014a typical, healthy two-year-old child.\u201d<\/p>

He emphasized that this is a concrete example of professional linkages and medical collaboration, demonstrating that bilateral exchanges in medicine and med-tech can be a force for good.<\/p>

\u201cThis coincides with the 50th anniversary of China-Philippines diplomatic relations, a celebration centered on strengthening people-to-people exchanges that date back centuries.

Department of Health Secretary Teodoro Herbosa also shared his thoughts:<\/p>

\u201cThis is a testament to the power of international collaboration and medical cooperation. Liver transplantation remains the definitive treatment for end-stage liver disease. However, in the Philippines, this procedure has been relatively scarce.\u201d<\/p>

He revealed that from 1998 to 2019, only 59 liver transplants were performed nationwide, with a survival rate of approximately 56%. \u201cThese numbers underscore the pressing need to expand our transplant capabilities, especially for our youngest patients.\u201d<\/p>

\u201cThis partnership presents a welcome opportunity to deepen our medical ties. Our goal is to establish a robust pediatric liver transplantation program that will ease the burden on patients seeking treatment abroad. Liver transplantation marks a pivotal advancement in our medical landscape\u2014it proves that with proper training, resources, and international support, we can offer complex procedures locally.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

He commended CGHMC for its achievement, stating that this milestone strengthens the Department of Health\u2019s commitment to advancing organ transplantation in the Philippines. \u201cFurthermore, we aim to strengthen our healthcare infrastructure to support more transplant procedures, ensuring that financial constraints will not hinder access to this life-saving treatment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

The Secretary also expressed gratitude to Dr. Xia Qiang, President of Renji Hospital, for his expert guidance and to the dedicated teams from both institutions. \u201cThis is more than a medical achievement\u2014it\u2019s a beacon of hope that showcases the remarkable outcomes that arise from solidarity, shared expertise, and an unwavering commitment to patient care. Dahil sa Bagong Pilipinas, bawat buhay ay mahalaga (In the new Philippines, every life is important).\u201d<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Special guest speakers during the media briefing included Chinese Embassy Consul General Wang Yue and Mr. Zhao Yuxiang, Managing Director of Mindray.<\/p>

Consul General Wang Yue congratulated the institutions, calling the liver transplant a \u201ctrue miracle of life\u201d made possible through medical collaboration. He highlighted CGHMC\u2019s long-standing dedication to providing healthcare services to Filipinos\u2014from admitting patients during the pandemic to assisting the government in large-scale vaccination efforts and medical missions.<\/p>

\u201cThe hospital has consistently delivered invaluable healthcare services to the local community. These acts of kindness highlight the deep compassion of the Chinese Filipino community and serve as a testament to the enduring friendship between China and the Philippines.\u201d<\/p>

He also spoke about China\u2019s rapid innovations in healthcare technology, such as 5G, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing, which have significantly improved the accuracy and efficiency of medical diagnoses.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The audience also watched a testimonial video documenting the family\u2019s journey. A live Zoom call was arranged so that the parents could share their gratitude from the CGHMC hospital room, where their child was resting after returning from China.<\/p>\n

Dr. Sammy Cunanan, head of the CGHMC Transplant Team, acknowledged the contributions of transplant expert Dr. Norge Salvador and hepatobiliary specialist Dr. Billy James Uy.<\/p>\n

Closing the program, CGHMC Medical Director Dr. Samuel Ang emphasized the importance of collaboration with institutions like the National Kidney Transplant Institute. He also recognized the leadership of Dr. Cunanan and the support of PCCAI and Mindray in sustaining CGHMC\u2019s training at Renji Hospital.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw the equipment that Mindray provided for Renji Hospital. It is my dream for Mindray to set up a state-of-the-art ICU here. Eventually, with our new IT system, we can establish a smart hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
