In recent years, China has made remarkable strides in the global field of vascular intervention technology. Spearheaded by leading experts like Professor Shu Chang, these innovations are setting new standards in the treatment of complex vascular diseases.


Breakthrough in Aortic Arch Reconstruction with the Concave Supra System


One of the most significant innovations is the Concave Supra-arch Branched Stent-Graft system, developed by Professor Shu Chang’s team. This system features a unique concave design that adapts to the complex hemodynamics of the aortic arch and allows for the reconstruction of three branches within a short time frame. Clinical studies have shown that the system performs exceptionally well during surgery, with the shortest operation time being just 37 minutes. It also significantly reduces the risk of intraoperative complications such as stroke.


This groundbreaking technology has not only marked a new milestone in China’s capability to innovate in endovascular treatment but has also garnered international attention. At multiple international conferences, including CICE 2024, Professor Shu showcased the system’s success, discussing its clinical applications with experts from Germany, Argentina, and Brazil. These discussions have provided new insights and solutions for the global treatment of aortic diseases .


Successful Application of the CS Aortic Arch Branch Stent System


Another significant achievement is the development and successful clinical application of the CS Aortic Arch Branch Stent System by Fuwai Hospital. This system was designed to address the growing complexity of aortic aneurysms, particularly in patients with intricate aortic conditions. Its successful application in clinical settings has demonstrated its effectiveness and safety, laying the groundwork for broader adoption in the future .

Accelerating International Promotion and Collaboration


As China’s vascular intervention technologies continue to mature, these innovations are rapidly entering international markets. Chinese experts, led by Professor Shu, are actively promoting these technologies through international exchanges and surgical demonstrations in countries such as Brazil and Thailand. These collaborations not only validate the effectiveness of China’s homegrown technologies but also strengthen cross-border medical exchanges, enhancing China’s influence in global medical innovation.
