Surgical treatment of renal cancer with vena cava carcinoma thrombosis

Leaders of Shanghai Renji Hospital.
I am patient Li Jiashi, who has experienced an unforgettable life-and-death experience in the past three months or so, and also personally felt the noble medical ethics and high moral character of your hospital.
Three months ago, I was diagnosed with coronary heart disease, and when I was examined at Tangqiao Hospital, I found that I had a right kidney tumor with inferior vena cava embolism to the level of the hepatic vein, and it was like a thunderstorm, and I was very anxious. Within three months, I went to many big hospitals (Shanghai Tongji University Eastern Hospital, Fudan University Cancer Hospital, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Shuguang Hospital, Fudan University Zhongshan Hospital), but no one dared to operate to save me because of the complicated and dangerous condition and the risk of surgery. When I came to your hospital with my last hope, I met Director Ma Lijun, who immediately suggested me to go to the urology department, and a few warm words were like spring rain, giving me hope and expectation. Immediately afterwards, several specialists from your hospital provided careful consultation and treatment for my complicated condition. Dr. Chen Yonghui read the film carefully, gave me a detailed explanation and then made specific arrangements for me when I was about to have lunch; Dr. Li Ping from the ultrasound department made use of the rest time to do an ultrasound imaging for one hour and 45 minutes to clarify the exact location of the cancerous embolus; finally, the whole department of urology, led by Director Huang Yiran, discussed the difficult cases and decided to perform the right kidney cancer treatment with stable heart function. After discussion, it was decided that radical right kidney cancer surgery + inferior vena cava thrombectomy should be performed under the condition of stable heart function. During the discussion, Dr. Huang Yiran’s words – “As long as the patient can share the risk with us, we will operate” – boosted my confidence and lifted my spirits; Dr. Wei Xue and Dr. Yonghui Chen formulated a comprehensive plan, listing the possible situations and corresponding countermeasures. At the same time, they contacted the director of the transplant center, Xia Qiang, to assist in the surgery. After the discussion, Dr. Wei Xue and Dr. Yonghui Chen communicated with me in a timely manner, eliminating the doubts and fears of me and my family, and helping me prepare mentally for the surgery. The confidence of the doctors gave me the strength to overcome the disease. One of the other things that particularly touched me was that I had some urgent family matters that delayed my admission to the hospital, and Dr. Dong Bojun took the initiative to call me, carefully inquired about my health condition, and advised me to be admitted to the hospital as soon as possible. With the joint efforts of doctors at all levels of your urology department and the director of the transplant center, Xia Qiang, and the anesthesiologists, I was finally admitted on April 11, 2008, successfully operated on April 16, 2008, and was successfully discharged on April 26, 2008.

The concerted efforts of all the departments of your hospital and the kindness of your doctors have left a deep and permanent imprint not only on me but also on my family members who have lived overseas for a long time, and I will never forget it! In recent years, due to the attacks of the Western public opinion and the exaggeration of the domestic media, my family and I had a wrong perception of the domestic medical system, medical system and the service attitude of the medical staff. I and our family members can’t help but exclaim from the bottom of our hearts that our socialist motherland is still a good country!

Salutations!
