The Journey of Dr. Cheng

Say Goodbye to Compression Garments after Dr. Cheng's Lymphedema Microsurgery

鄭醫師

Ming-Huei Cheng, M.D., M.B.A., F.A.C.S.

November 27, 2024

  • Degree, Position, and Societies

Dr. Ming-Huei Cheng completed his General Surgery and Plastic Surgery residency training at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan, in 1997 and finished a combined microsurgical and research fellowship at the Department of Plastic Surgery, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas, in 1999. He has been a member of the American Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery since 2003 and an international member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons since 2009. He was promoted to a Full Professor at the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, in 2011. He has been an adjunct professor at the Division of Plastic Surgery at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI., since 2017. He retired from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital and established his private clinic, A+ Surgery Clinic, specializing in lymphedema microsurgery and microsurgical breast reconstruction in Taipei in April 2023 (www.aplussurgery.com). He was appointed Vice President of the World Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery in August 2023.

 

  • Clinical Works

Dr. Cheng initiated his distinguished career in reconstructive microsurgery, specializing initially in extremity and head and neck reconstruction, later expanding to breast reconstruction and lymphedema microsurgery. Globally recognized, he is a highly sought-after figure in reconstructive microsurgery. With a portfolio exceeding 2,600 microsurgical cases, Dr. Cheng has demonstrated unparalleled expertise in head and neck reconstructions, right hepatic artery anastomoses for living-donor liver transplantation, breast reconstructions, extracranial-intracranial bypasses, and lymphovenous bypasses (98.5% patency rate). His proficiency in vascularized lymph node transfer also boasts an impressive 98% success rate. Since 2000, Dr. Cheng has pioneered innovative techniques, such as distal recipient site utilization for vascularized lymph node flap transfer and the groundbreaking vascularized submental lymph node flap transfer for extremity lymphedema. His clinical research on the mechanisms of vascularized lymph node transfer has led to the development of a new severity classification for Lymphedema Grading in Annals Surgical Oncology (2015) and a novel Taiwan Lymphoscintigraphy Staging system in Annals of Surgery (2018). Dr. Cheng's unique and innovative techniques stand as some of the most effective treatments for lymphedema.

 

  • Research, Publications, and Patents

Dr. Cheng's impactful research career includes 22 projects from the Ministry of Science and Technology, 39 projects from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, and leadership at the Center for Tissue Engineering since 2014. His extensive publications comprise 270 peer-reviewed papers and 42 book chapters, including the chapter "Lymphedema: Diagnosis and Treatment" in "Grabb and Smith’s Plastic Surgery 8th edition" (Wolters Kluwer, 2020). He is one of the Editors-in-Chief of the textbook “Principles and Practice of Lymphedema Surgery”, first, second, and Spanish editions. Dr. Cheng's scholarly impact is reflected in 12,467 citations, an h-index of 59, and an i10-index of 195 on Google Scholar as of November 27, 2024 (https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=KtfcDvcAAAAJ&hl=en). His inventive contributions extend to 17 intellectual patents in Taiwan and three in the United States.

 

  • Teaching, Visiting Professorships, and Editor of Peer-Review Journals

Dr. Cheng, a preeminent expert in international reconstructive microsurgery, is frequently invited to prestigious conferences for lectures and panels. Hosting annual microsurgery courses since 2010 and the super microsurgery course since 2017, he has trained 107 residents and 126 international fellows, receiving 1026 international visitors in the past 26 years. Noteworthy successes include mentees who, under his guidance, have become professors, employing advanced techniques like vascularized lymph node transfer for breast cancer-related lymphedema. Dr. Cheng's influence extends globally through 32 visiting professorships at renowned institutes, including Harvard Medical School and Mayo Clinic. He plays pivotal roles as Reconstruction Section Editor at the Annals of Surgical Oncology and co-Section (Reconstruction) Editor at the Journal of Surgical Oncology. Additionally, he has served as an editor for journals like Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Global Open, Microsurgery, and Annals of Plastic Surgery. Dr. Cheng's ongoing contributions actively shape and disseminate knowledge in reconstructive surgery.

 

  • Host International Conferences

Dr. Cheng has been a driving force in fostering collaboration between the Taiwan Society of Plastic Surgery (TSPS) and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). His visionary approach aims to provide learning opportunities for junior doctors and surgeons in Taiwan while connecting them with the global medical society through an alliance with ASPS. In 2009, he initiated and hosted the inaugural Asian Symposium for Breast Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, advocating for breast reconstruction and facilitating the exchange of advanced surgical techniques and knowledge for treating breast cancer patients in Asian countries. This impactful conference has been held consecutively for 11 years. Additionally, Dr. Cheng hosted and co-chaired the World Symposium on Lymphedema Surgery in 2013, 2016, 2019 and 2024. This annual gathering brings together the world's foremost lymphedema experts, providing a platform to present their expertise and discuss various surgical procedures and challenges in treating lymphedema.

 

  • Websites and Patient Support Group

In 2001, Dr. Cheng initiated the breast reconstruction website http://www.nicebreast.com.tw, dedicated to educating the public on breast cancer and reconstruction. The following year, he founded the inaugural Taiwan Breast Reconstruction Patient Support Group, contributing to breast cancer awareness in Taiwan and neighboring Asian countries. Collaborating with Avon Company, he organized annual fundraising events, offering financial aid to over 450 patients undergoing breast reconstruction. In 2019, Dr. Cheng launched the lymphedema website https://lymphedemamicrosurgery.com/, attracting over 300,000 visits and sharing the latest microsurgical techniques, results, and research on lymphedema diagnosis and treatments. His continued commitment to patient support expanded in 2023 with the launch of the Plastic and Recontructive Surgery website www.aplussurgery.com for the A+ Surgery Clinic’s official website.

 

  • Awards and Honors

Dr. Cheng's notable recognitions include the 2006 Godina Travel Fellow of the American Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery and the 2008 Outstanding Alumnus of Chung Shun Medical University. He received the Distinguished Alumni Award from Chang Gung University in 2013 and was named the Zamboni Visiting Professor by the American Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery in 2016. Notable awards include the First Place Award at the National Innovation Competition 2019 and a Silver Medal at the Symbol of National Quality Competition in 2020 for his Center of Lymphedema team. Dr. Cheng's global impact is highlighted by his consistent top 2% ranking among 8 million scientists continuous for 5 years, from 2020 to 2024, as recognized by Stanford University, Elsevier, and SciTech Strategies. In 2022, he received the 15th Annual (100th Anniversary) Distinguished Alumni Award from Tainan First High School.
