Amidst a wave of medical innovation in China, treatment for congenital microtia (small ear deformity) is witnessing a significant breakthrough. Chinese doctors perform approximately 10 times more surgeries per year than their European counterparts, building on their technical advantage.
A Chinese team led by Professor Guo Shuzhong has innovatively optimized the traditional three-stage surgery into just two procedures. Combined with millimeter-level costal cartilage carving technology, this approach significantly shortens the treatment cycle while ensuring a nearly natural reconstruction effect. This leading technology benefits 2,500 children with microtia in China annually and is increasingly attracting patients from around the globe seeking treatment.
Chinese doctors are putting the philosophy of “physicians without borders” into practice through technological innovation. Using their superb medical skills, they are outlining a brand-new life for patients from all over the world.
