On November 26, 2023, the Chinese Medical Science and Technology Awards ceremony was held by Chinese Medical Association (CMA) in Beijing, where the winners of the 2022 awards were honored. The CMA, established in 1915, is a non-profit registered academic and commonweal corporate body voluntarily formed by Chinese medical science and technology professionals, and an important social force in the development of medical science and technology in China.
Professor Guo Wei and Professor Zhang Jianzhong from Peking University People's Hospital (PKUPH) led teams that were awarded the first and second prizes, respectively, at the ceremony for their projects.
Professor Guo Wei's team was recognized for their project "Key Technologies and Clinical Applications of Repairing and Reconstructing Large Bone Joint Defects after Bone Tumor Resection," which significantly improves the prognosis and postoperative function of patients with malignant bone tumors in China. They solved the global challenge of repairing and reconstructing large bone joint defects after bone tumor resection through innovative concepts and patent transformation, using key technologies such as composite design and additive manufacturing. Their universal pelvic bone system, with multiple patents in the United States, Europe, and China, has been successfully applied in clinical settings. It has become internationally recognized as the most effective solution for the largest cohort of pelvic ring tumor resections and functional reconstructions. The main contributors to the project were Guo Wei, Tang Xiaodong, Ji Tao, Yang Yi, Liang Haijie, Wei Ran, Yang Rongli, Yan Taiqiang, Li Dasen, Qu Huayi, Du Zhiye, Zang Jie.
