Can you tell that I am a 70-year-old patient who has suffered from oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy for 8 years?

Mr. Rafael Borochov from Israel is a handsome 70-year-old gentleman, but unfortunately, he has been suffering from oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy, experiencing progressive swallowing difficulties and ptosis for 8 years, with worsening cognitive decline for over a year. Due to the continuous progression of his symptoms, he has been losing strength in the muscles from his eyes, face, pharynx, and throughout his body.

Mr. Rafael Borochov and his family are truly anxious. They heard that a patient with the same condition had miraculously improved after treatment at Wu Medical Center, enhancing their quality of life, and so he eagerly awaited the opportunity to come to Beijing for stem cell and CAST treatment with Dr. Wu's team.

Wu Medical Center, as a specialized stem cell treatment hospital with over 20 years of experience, has developed internationally advanced stem cell treatment technologies and possesses rich clinical experience. Dr. Wu's team has helped many muscular dystrophy patients regain muscle volume, improve overall muscle strength and tone, leading to significant improvements in their conditions.

After just two weeks of inpatient treatment, Mr. Rafael Borochov showed significant improvement. His oculopharyngeal muscle strength and limb muscle strength increased markedly; his cheek puffing strength improved from being very weak before hospitalization to now being stronger without air leakage. The strength of his levator palpebrae muscle increased, widening his palpebral fissure when opening his eyes, and the strength of his orbicularis oculi muscle improved, allowing him to close his eyelids almost completely. The "buried eyelashes sign" changed from positive before hospitalization to nearly negative now. His tongue muscle strength increased and flexibility improved, going from unable to stick out his tongue to being able to extend it about 2-3 cm and move it freely side to side. His speech clarity improved, and his rate of speech noticeably increased; his short-term memory and comprehension improved from poor before hospitalization to significantly better now, with faster and correct two-digit addition and subtraction calculations—no longer requiring multiple prompts as before. His balance improved, going from being able to stand on one foot for only 2-3 seconds to now being able to stand on tiptoes steadily for over 10 seconds and standing on one foot for over 10 seconds. His walking and turning speed increased and became smoother, and his limb strength improved by more than 30%, essentially restoring it to normal strength level 5. His energy, physical fitness, and exercise endurance significantly enhanced.

Mr. Rafael Borochov and his family are thrilled to see these improvements!

We will continue to monitor Mr. Rafael Borochov's condition. Neural stem cells will further assist him in improving, and we hope to help more patients with similar conditions find their normal, healthy bodies and enjoy the beauty of a healthy life through the advanced stem cell and CAST treatments at Wu Medical Center, which differ from traditional medical approaches.
