上海成功实施全国首例艾滋病人心脏外科手术   2017-02-10

 

THE country’s first HIV-positive patient to undergo heart surgery was discharged yesterday from the Shanghai hospital where he had been treated.

“It was China’s first successful heart surgery on an HIV-positive patient,” said Lu Hongzhou, director of the Shanghai Center for AIDS Diagnosis and Treatment.

The male patient, 58, had a cardiac aortic valve calcification problem that could only be corrected through surgery.
