Dubai hospital performs 825 robotic surgeries
Clemenceau Medical Center Dubai (CMC Dubai), has performed over 825 robotic procedures in last four years using the state-of-the-art da Vinci surgical system. CMC Dubai celebrated the achievement recently at the hospital's Dubai campus, attended by hospital leadership, surgeons, and the da Vinci robotic surgical team. Mark Adams, CEO, Clemenceau Medical Center Dubai said, 'Dubai is the city of innovation with the vision of the future. Every day, there is innovation with new developments — and in CMC, we want to be in front of that. In 2021, we introduced robotic surgery, and in the last four years, we have performed 825 robotic surgeries, which makes CMC one of the most advanced hospitals.' The hospital continues to redefine surgical excellence through the advanced integration of robotic technology across multiple specialties. As a regional leader in medical innovation, CMC Dubai has successfully deployed robotic-assisted surgery in general surgery, gynecology, urology, bariatric surgery, and more recently, orthopedics—demonstrating a truly multidisciplinary approach to precision care. 'Robotic surgery offers unmatched precision and control, allowing us to minimize complications and ensure faster patient recovery,' said Dr Walid Faraj, Consultant General Surgeon at CMC Dubai. 'The robotic system doesn't replace the surgeon — it enhances our capabilities. With 360-degree articulation and exceptional accuracy, we're able to operate in areas that would be challenging or risky using traditional techniques.' 'Robotic surgery is no longer the future — it's the present, empowering surgeons to perform safer, faster, and more accurate procedures,' said Dr Abdul Kader Weiss, Specialist General & Laparoscopic Surgeon at CMC Dubai. 'What once required large incisions and long hospital stays can now be done through tiny ports, with the robot as an extension of the surgeon's hand. At CMC, we are proud to be at the forefront of this transformation, aligning with the UAE's ambition to lead in medical innovation.' The result is a transformative impact on both clinical outcomes and patient experience. Robotic-assisted procedures typically involve smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, less post-operative pain, and significantly shorter hospital stays. Many patients are discharged within 24 to 48 hours, returning to normal activities more quickly and with fewer complications. CMC Dubai was among the first hospitals in the UAE to adopt robotic surgery and continues to set benchmarks in this domain. The center's commitment to innovation is matched by its focus on patient safety, outcome-driven care, and ongoing investment in the latest surgical technologies. 'Our goal is to expand what is surgically possible,' added Dr. Faraj. 'With robotic systems, we are performing more complex surgeries with greater confidence and control, while continuously improving patient satisfaction and recovery time.'

The project, led by private firm CMC Technology & Solution, located on an 11,000 sq.m site in Hanoi, will feature 23 floors above ground and three basements, with a total floor space exceeding 90,000 sq.m. Following the success of CMC's first creative space in Ho Chi Minh City - CCS Tan Thuan, this second facility will serve as an open artificial intelligence centre, dubbed It aims to house a comprehensive tech ecosystem, including a state-of-the-art data centre, research and development labs, training facilities, and a startup incubation zone, employing over 5,000 engineers. At the heart of the complex is the CMC Data Centre, designed to deploy cutting-edge technologies in artificial intelligence, cloud computing, cybersecurity, big data, and next-generation networks. The ecosystem will also integrate 25 core technologies developed by CMC. In his address, PM Chinh praised the project as a testament to the private sector's role in advancing Vietnam's technological ambitions, aligning with the Party's policy of making breakthroughs in sci-tech, innovation, and digital transformation. With Vietnam targeting at least 8% economic growth in 2025 and double-digit expansion thereafter, he called for national unity to drive prosperity, safeguard its independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity. He urged CMC to lead in sci-tech, innovation and digital transformation, inspiring other businesses, educational establishments, and research centres, particularly young people, to contribute to Vietnam's rapid and sustainable development. He expressed his hope that CMC would grow into a major multinational corporation integrated into global value chains while prioritising social welfare and equitable access to technology, especially for remote and vulnerable communities. The Government will always accompany companies, including CMC, and request ministries, agencies, and Hanoi authorities to further support them by promptly removing any obstacles to their growth, he concluded. - Vietnam News/ANN

Chinese admiral sacked as Xi's purge of military brass continues, another CMC top dog still missing
Admiral Miao was the director of the CMC's political work department and was suspended from office, as announced by the Chinese Ministry of National Defence in November last year. At the time, he was 'suspected of serious violations of discipline'. The case surrounding Miao comes even as Second Vice Chairman of the CMC and Politburo member General He Weidong continues to remain missing since March. New Delhi: Admiral Miao Hua, a member of China's powerful Central Military Commission (CMC) which oversees armed forces operations, is suspected of 'legal violations', indicating charges against him are more serious than previously reported, and has been removed from the National People's Congress. However, in its latest statement, the political work department said it has been decided to remove Miao from China's top legislature—the National People's Congress—last month for 'suspected serious violations of discipline and law', the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported Friday. The political work department is responsible for ideological control and the management of personnel within the People's Liberation Army (PLA). According to the SCMP, the type of charges reported against Miao is more severe than what was first announced in November. Apart from this, no further details on the case have been reported till date. The news regarding Miao comes as another member of the CMC—He Weidong—continues to remain out of view of the public for almost three months. The missing General and Miao's downfall comes as Chinese President Xi Jinping continues his anti-graft drive amongst the top echelons of the PLA. A number of senior military officials, including two former ministers of defence, have been removed from their positions in recent years as a part of the anti-corruption drive. Miao was the seventh member of the all-powerful CMC to be removed from his post since Xi assumed power in 2012. In fact, one of Miao's predecessors, General Zhang Yang died by suicide in 2017, amidst an investigation into his ties with two disgraced former military individuals during Xi's anti-corruption drive at the time. Miao was the second CMC member to be removed from his position following the dismissal of Li Shangfu, the former minister of defence in 2023, since the current term of office for the leadership began in 2022. The CMC oversees the armed forces in China, in a change from other systems, where the role usually lies with the minister of defence. The minister of defence represents the PLA externally. The chairman of the CMC is President Xi, while there are two vice-chairpersons and other members of the powerful body. Xi has consistently pushed for ideological loyalty to the Communist Party amongst the senior leadership of the Chinese military. Miao remains a CMC member, however, his name no longer appears in the English website of the organisation. His career was shaped by Xi, with Miao becoming the youngest admiral in the PLA. He Weidong, the Second Vice Chairman of the CMC, missed a study session of the Politburo organised by President Xi in the end of April. His last public appearance is reported to have been on 11 March. Miao and He Weidong are the latest members of the CMC to come under the anti-corruption net. In June 2024, Li was expelled from the Communist Party and charged with graft. Li, a former head of the Rocket Force, was appointed Minister of Defence by Xi and held the post for roughly seven months before disappearing. His predecessor Wei Fenghe, who was also a commander in the Rocket Force was also expelled from the Communist Party on the same day as Li.
