After suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for 14 years, 57-year-old Ms. Zhang (pseudonym) was plagued by severe deformity and infection in both knees, along with multiple complications. 

She was once bedridden and on the verge of despair. At The University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital, Dr. Wu Yaoping, Director of the Department of Orthopaedics, Sports Medicine and Joint Replacement Surgery, led a multidisciplinary team to develop a meticulous surgical plan for her. 

During the operation, Dr. Wu innovatively employed a self-developed flip osteotomy bone grafting technique, completing bilateral knee replacement and infection debridement in a single procedure. This approach avoided the use of traditional metal augmentation blocks, achieving better bone healing and long-term stability. Post-surgery, Ms.recovered smoothly, regained her ability to stand and walk independently, and recovered her capacity for self-care. 

With his exceptional surgical skill and compassion, Dr. Wu Yaoping helped the patient overcome her ordeal, reigniting hope in her life.
