In memory of Academician Mengchao Wu,the pioneer of Chinese hepatobiliary surgery

摘要

I have two important reasons for writing this. First, I want to commemorate the Academician Mengchao Wu I knew – a venerable man who, though gone, has left behind a spirit that will continue to inspire people forever. He was a man of conviction with a resolute sense of his mission; he brought honor to his country and his generation. Second, I want people to know about his contributions, character, teachings, and influence and see them as a legacy to be embraced and passed down to younger generations as a beacon and stars that light the way and continue to shine into the future.
