WOIPFG’s Investigative Report on the Alleged Organ Harvesting of Living Falun Gong Practitioners at Shanghai General Hospital and Its Staff Members Suspected of Participation
Preface
Shanghai General Hospital is one of the hospitals in the city that carries out the largest variety and number of organ transplants. The official website reported in 2016 that since 2001, the hospital has consistently maintained the third place nationwide in the total number of annual liver transplants. Dr. Li Wengang, the subject of a telephone investigation in 2017, said, “President Peng Zhihai has done more than 5,000 cases (liver transplants), and in previous years was able to do more than 400 cases per year. " When asked about the availability of Falun Gong donor in a telephone investigation in 2018, Peng Zhihai said, "No problem, no problem." In the broader context of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s state crime of organ harvesting from living donors, the hospital is suspected of participating in the crime of organ harvesting from living members of Falun Gong and other groups.
Hospital address: 85 Wujin Road, Shanghai City
Hospital Overview
The hospital is a tertiary level-A general hospital, and the venue of Shanghai Clinical Medical Center for Organ Transplantation and the Institute of Organ Transplantation of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The hospital branches out into two parts, Hongkou and Songjiang, covering an area of about 295,000 square meters. There are 4206 employees, including 570 with senior titles and 1411 with Master's degree or above. There are 1820 approved beds. There are 68 clinical tertiary disciplines and medical-technical disciplines in the two northern and southern parts.[1]
I. One of the hospitals with the most types and numbers of organ transplants in the city
In August 2001, Shanghai Clinical Medical Center for Organ Transplantation was established and affiliated with Shanghai General Hospital. The Center, which started out with kidney transplantation, was established on the basis of Shanghai Organ Transplantation Research Center and Shanghai Tissue Matching Center. The hospital claims to have carried out various kidney transplants, heart transplants, liver transplants, combined liver-kidney transplants, combined pancreas-kidney transplants, combined kidney-adult islet cell transplants and other substantial large organ transplants, corneal transplants, allogeneic finger transplants, as well as fetal islet cell transplants, bone marrow transplants, peripheral blood stem cell transplants and umbilical cord blood hematopoietic stem cell transplants, a total of twelve major types[2], and is one of the hospitals in the city carrying out the largest variety and number of organ transplants[3]. The Institute of Organ Transplantation of Shanghai Jiao Tong University is also located at Shanghai General Hospital[4]. The official website reported in 2016 that since 2001, the hospital has consistently maintained the third place nationwide in annual total number of liver transplants[5].
II. The hospital used eight spare donor organs for one kidney transplant
Tan Jianming, director of the Shanghai Organ Transplantation Research Center [6], performed a kidney transplant on a patient at Shanghai General Hospital in 2003. During the following two weeks, this patient and four kidneys were tested for blood and other matches. Due to the patient's antibody reaction, none of the kidneys were a match and as a result all four kidneys were taken away. The patient returned to this hospital about two months later. Four more kidneys were brought in for similar testing; when an eighth kidney proved to be a match, the transplant was completed successfully. Dr. Tan told the organ recipient that the eighth kidney was from a death row inmate.[7]
III. The organ transplantation center carries out emergency liver transplant with sufficient donor sources
In 2002, the first emergency liver transplant in Shanghai was performed, and in 2004, the first emergency blood group incompatible liver transplant in China was successfully performed to treat acute liver failure. 10 cases have been completed so far, among which 4 cases were the first internationally reported blood group incompatible active consecutive second transplant.[8]
IV. The team of liver and kidney transplant doctors is strong and the actual transplant volume is large.
The name list released by WOIPFG in 2014 includes the transplant doctors of the hospital.[9] About the doctors specialized in kidney transplantation alone, We were able to find from the official website and papers that 31 of them did do the surgery, including 9 chief physicians, 5 associate chief physicians and 17 others. For liver transplant doctors, we can find from the official websites and papers 26 of them who did do the surgery, including 6 chief physicians, 5 associate chief physicians, 5 attending physicians and 10 others. Multiple liver and kidney transplant teams can be formed.
Tan Jianming, director of the Shanghai Organ Transplantation Research Center.[10] Tan used eight kidneys for matching for a kidney transplant at Shanghai General Hospital in 2003.[11] Tan had performed more than 4,200 kidney transplants as of June 2014.[12]
Peng Zhihai was vice president of Shanghai General Hospital and director of the Shanghai Organ Transplant Center.[13] In April 2017, according to Li Wengang, a hepatobiliary surgeon at Xiamen No.174 Hospital, on a survey call, "Peng Zhihai from the transplant center at Shanghai Jiao Tong University has been here for a few days and is preparing for surgery at Xiamen University. President Peng Zhihai has done more than 5,000 cases (liver transplants) and was able to do more than 400 per year in previous years.[14]"
V. Large number of organ transplant beds
The Department of Urology, with 3 exclusive wards (1 ward in the hospital’s southern branch and 2 wards in the hospital’s northern branch), has a total of 126 general beds (38 in the southern branch and 88 in the northern branch) and 20 non-fixed beds in the hospital’s ICU, day ward and special needs ward of the International Medical Center. The department is a national clinical drug experimental base.[15] Kidney transplantation is the traditional strength of the urology department and is the core component of Shanghai Clinical Medical Center for Organ Transplantation (located in Shanghai General Hospital)[16].
The Department of General Surgery of Shanghai General Hospital is the organ transplantation center of Shanghai and the quality control center of liver transplantation of Shanghai . In recent years, the department with Prof. Peng Zhihai as its head, has carried out complex hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery in the era of liver transplantation, and established a liver cancer treatment system integrating liver descending treatment - liver resection - liver transplantation - salvage liver transplantation and formed a clinical standard. At present, the Department of General Surgery has 5 wards with 243 beds in two sub-departments in the north and south, with hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, gastrointestinal surgery and breast and thyroid surgery under it[17].
VI. The hospital promotes liver transplantation to other medical units in Shanghai and across China
Shanghai General Hospital has promoted liver transplantation to other medical units in Shanghai as well as 11 provinces and 2 cities across China. The target units include: Renji Hospital of Shanghai Second Medical University, Xinhua Hospital of Shanghai Second Medical University, Ninth People's Hospital of Shanghai Second Medical University, Eastern Hospital of Shanghai Tongji University, Changhai Hospital of Shanghai Second Military Medical University, Eastern Hepatobiliary Hospital of Shanghai Second Military Medical University, Shenzhen People's Hospital, Second Hospital of Shandong Medical University, Dongguan People's Hospital, Hospital of Jiangxi Medical University, Hospital of Xi'an Medical University, Henan 153 Hospital, Wuxi Second People's Hospital of Jiangsu Province, and the Hospital of Xi'an Medical University. Xi'an Medical University Hospital, Henan 153 Hospital, Jiangsu Wuxi Second People's Hospital, Fujian Medical University Hospital, Qinghai Medical College Hospital, Guizhou Dujun People's Hospital, Hunan Medical University Xiangya Hospital, Xinjiang Medical University Cancer Hospital.[18]
Meng Jianzhu, the Secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee, personally connected the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University with the Shanghai Organ Transplant Center (First People's Hospital) to establish a joint and collaborative relationship.[19] The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University had a record of completing six large organ transplants simultaneously in one day.[20]
VII. Doctors admitted organs used were from Falun Gong practitioners, and said that donors were available every day and were all living persons.
The following is a transcript of the conversation between a WOIPFG investigator and an anonymous doctor with the Liver Transplant Center of the First People's Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiao TongUniversity in a telephone investigation.
Investigator: I wanted to know how long the waiting time will be?
Doctor: We have donors, we have them every day. We are doing it today.
Investigator: But aren’t you telling me the fresh ones will be used, the ones from living persons...
Doctor: They are all from living persons, they are all from living persons.
Investigator: There is one type that comes from those who practice qi gong. They have good healthy body.
Doctor: Yes, we have them.[21]
