From a small screening finding to a breast-conserving surgical plan

Foshan Fosun Chancheng Hospital · Breast surgical oncology

An official Fosun Health publication describes a patient whose small, painless nodule was found during routine screening.

Reported process

  1. Ultrasound triggered further evaluation.
  2. A local-anaesthetic needle biopsy provided tissue diagnosis.
  3. The team assessed stage and breast-conservation suitability before choosing a robotic approach.
  4. The patient was observed after surgery before discharge.

Outcome reported by the source: According to the source publication, the tumour and surrounding tissue were removed, the breast was preserved, and the patient was discharged after several days of observation.

Scope: Relevant for understanding the sequence from screening and tissue diagnosis to surgical assessment and postoperative monitoring.

Does not establish: It does not establish that robotic surgery is suitable for another patient and does not predict cosmetic, recovery, recurrence, or survival outcomes.

Permission status: publicly published by the source institution; BKC has not independently verified the patient release form.

When venous access made a transvenous ICD unsuitable

Foshan Fosun Chancheng Hospital · Cardiology and electrophysiology

The hospital official publication describes a 74-year-old patient with heart failure and several comorbidities who was assessed as being at high risk of sudden cardiac death.

Reported process

  1. Echocardiography, cardiac MRI, clinical history, and infection risk were reviewed.
  2. The team and family initially discussed a transvenous ICD.
  3. Access assessment showed a fistula on one side and occlusion on the other.
  4. The multidisciplinary team selected a subcutaneous ICD and performed intraoperative testing.

Outcome reported by the source: According to the source publication, the device was implanted through two incisions, intraoperative testing was successful, and the procedure was completed by the hospital cardiology, surgery, and anaesthesia teams.

Scope: Relevant for understanding how venous access, infection risk, family discussion, and team review can change device selection.

Does not establish: It does not mean an S-ICD is suitable for every patient at arrhythmic risk and does not predict complications or long-term outcomes.

Permission status: publicly published by the source institution; BKC has not independently verified the patient release form.
