Battling a rare form of congenital muscular dystrophy, Xiao Jiang faced a life-threatening condition with his spine severely folded in reverse. The expert team led by Liang Yijian at Chengdu BOE Hospital achieved a medical milestone by successfully performing the world's first high-risk surgery to correct this reversed folded spine, adjusting it by approximately 170 degrees. Following the surgery, Xiao Jiang made a remarkable recovery, regaining the ability to walk independently through rehabilitation training. Now, he is poised to return to school. Furthermore, the hospital extends its medical services to the three prefectures of Sichuan through an innovative "medical + public welfare" model.
