The core oncology platform of Southwest China; Kunming’s visa-free access and proximity to Southeast Asia make it ideal for cost-effective international cancer care.
Yunnan Cancer Hospital (the Third Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University) is the largest cancer specialty hospital in southwest China, serving Yunnan and neighboring Southeast Asian countries, and leads the region in lung, breast, cervical and head-neck cancers.
The hospital is building a national regional cancer medical center; Professor Huang Yunchao’s team is prolific in lung cancer surgery and biomaterial translational research. Its proximity to Southeast Asia offers geographic convenience for patients from neighboring countries.
01The oncology highland of southwest China
The largest annual oncology volume in the southwest and a national regional cancer center under construction — complex cases no longer need to travel to Beijing, Shanghai or Guangzhou.
02An international gateway for Southeast Asia
Kunming has direct flights to multiple Southeast Asian countries, and the hospital routinely receives patients from Vietnam, Laos and Myanmar with cross-border care experience.
03A distinctive lung surgery team
Professor Huang Yunchao’s team is experienced in extended resection for locally advanced lung cancer and sleeve bronchoplasty.
Prof. Huang Yunchao’s team has long worked in the high-incidence Xuanwei region, building an integrated model of high-risk screening, early diagnosis and etiological prevention that serves as a national example.
As the Yunnan Cancer Center, it radiates cancer care technology toward South and Southeast Asia, treating international patients and building cross-border referral mechanisms.
