In Jan, 2012, Mr. Yang had a car accident that led to cervical broken C3/4. After the surgery, he got triplegia.

2. Both two arms have poor strength. Left arm can slightly move. Right hand can lift up to the chest level.
3. Very poor strength and high muscle tension of fingers. He can’t hold things such as pen and cellphone.
4. Showing dizzy giddy when sit up with the help of relative. It is because of postural hypotension.

2. Both two arms have better strength. Right arms can lift over head.
3. Fingers can hold cellphone easily with increase of muscle strength and lower muscle tension.
4. Postural hypotension is disappear after one course stem cell treatment.
5. Begin to have sensation when empty his bladder. Constipation is obviously improved.
According to our follow up for discharged patients, patients continue to show improvements in different levels after take treatment for 6-12 months. 13 days after stem cell treatment, Mr. Yang already get obvious improvement.
