Guo Qiang, Director of Surgery and Deputy Chief Physician of the Affiliated Hospital of Changzhi Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has been engaged in surgical work for 22 years, went to Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital for neurosurgery in 2001 for further study, and in 2018 went to the Department of Interventional Medicine of the Second Hospital of Shandong University for further study, and published several papers such as "Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Gastric Perforation Patients" and "Treatment of Lymphatic Leakage After Lower Extremity Varicose Vein High Ligation and Decortication".
He is good at general surgery, peripheral vascular diseases, tumor intervention minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment (such as liver tumors, hepatic hemangiomas, lower limb varicose veins, lower limb arteriovenous thrombosis, lower limb arteriosclerosis occlusion, uterine fibroids, adenomyosis dysmenorrhea prostatic hyperplasia interventional minimally invasive, etc., has rich experience in diagnosis and treatment).
The interventional minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment techniques include: interventional sclerosis treatment of varicose veins of the lower limbs, interventional opening + stent therapy of arteriosclerosis occlusion of the lower limbs, comprehensive interventional treatment of venous thrombosis of the lower limbs, perfusion chemotherapy and embolization treatment of malignant tumors such as liver cancer, stomach cancer, lung cancer, kidney cancer, cervical cancer, etc., interventional embolism treatment of benign tumors such as uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, prostatic hyperplasia, hepatic hemangioma and other benign tumors; percutaneous hepatic penetrating biliary tract drainage and stent placement for obstructive jaundice; gastrointestinal and respiratory tract obstruction stents are placed and opened.

Zhongyan Story
Mr. Ma, 44 years old, often feels that a small meat ball comes out of the anus when defecating, and the anus is very painful when defecating, he has run to many hospitals, the test results are hemorrhoids, and after going back, he tried a lot of treatments, whether it is oral medicine or plug medicine, the symptoms have not been alleviated.
When Mr. Ma came to the Affiliated Hospital of Changzhi Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he wanted to treat the hemorrhoids that had puzzled him for many years under the premise of the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, under the premise of the minimum pain and trauma of the body, and after the surgeon Guo Qiang checked the condition, he boldly proposed to perform hemorrhoid artery embolization! Guo Qiang introduced that the principle of interventional embolism in the treatment of hemorrhoids is that the puncture allows the catheter to enter the blood vessel, finds the artery that supplies blood to the hemorrhoid, and then uses a spring ring or embolic particles to embolize this artery. This reduces the blood flow of the hemorrhoid artery and reduces the pressure on the rectal venous plexus, thus achieving the treatment of hemorrhoids and the resolution of pain.
After excluding the contraindications to surgery, on October 17, the patient's local anesthesia DSA intervened in abdominal aorta + suborpinnal angiography + selective embolization of the superior rectal artery, and the patient was able to get out of bed 24 hours after the operation, and the discomfort was significantly alleviated on the second day after the operation. Unlike traditional hemorrhoid surgery, interventional embolization requires only a puncture of the femoral artery at the base of the thigh into a thin catheter, super minimally invasive without surgery, and the postoperative recovery is very fast, and the hospital can be discharged three days after the operation.
According to Director Guo Qiang, the vast majority of patients with hemorrhoidal arterial intervention have no pain and no infection after surgery. The biggest advantage of hemorrhoid artery embolization is that it does not require surgery, is painless, punctures through the femoral artery, does not pass through the anus, has almost no risk of bleeding, and is a contamination-free procedure.
Guo Qiang reminded that hemorrhoids are not treated for a long time, which will cause anemia, itching, pain, such as hemorrhoids incarceration, and it is easy to cause tissue necrosis, causing other diseases and dysfunction. Hemorrhoids do not heal for a long time, on the one hand, it leads to contractures and difficulty in defecation; on the other hand, it violates the sphincter, which can easily lead to incontinence. In addition, once abscesses and infections are formed, bleeding symptoms are produced, and bacteria, toxins, and pus plugs are easy to invade the blood and cause sepsis. Therefore, it is suggested that hemorrhoidal patients must detect the disease early and treat it early.
In recent years, the Department of Surgery of the Affiliated Hospital of Changzhi Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine has continuously developed and innovated, and has made great progress in the development and application of new technologies. At present, the interventional techniques that the surgical department of the hospital can independently carry out include: peripheral vascular interventional technology, tumor interventional technology, comprehensive interventional technology, solid tumors of the thyroid, lungs, liver, pancreas, kidneys and other parts; venous thrombosis of the lower limbs, iliac vein thrombosis, internal carotid artery stenosis, subclavian artery stenosis, renal artery stenosis, iliac artery stenosis, lower limb arteriosclerosis occlusion; as well as esophageal cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, cardia cancer, stomach cancer, cervical cancer, etc. have a good therapeutic effect. The department of surgery of the hospital also combines traditional Chinese medicine with modern interventional techniques, and under the premise of surgical treatment, actively applies traditional Chinese medicine to postoperative anti-tumor consolidation and maintenance therapy, improves patients' anti-tumor immunity, and reduces the toxic side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The surgical team of the Affiliated Hospital of Changzhi Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine upholds the belief that "as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will do our best", saving one patient after another and helping them to rekindle the hope of life!
