Specialized Procedures
Head and Neck Oncology
We specialise in intricate head and neck surgeries, including organ preservation and skull base operations. Excellent cosmetic and functional results are guaranteed by advanced microvascular repair.
Gastrointestinal Oncology
We specialise in multivisceral resections, colectomy, and thoracic laparoscopic esophagectomy. These methods guarantee shorter healing times and appropriate intervention.
Gynae-Oncology Surgeries
Gynaecologic cancer can be treated with surgeries, including pelvic nodal dissection, laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, and even 3D laparoscopic procedures performed by our surgical oncology department.
CRS+ HIPEC for Peritoneal Malignancies
An innovative method for treating abdominal tumours is hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. To optimise outcomes and minimise adverse effects, warm chemotherapy medication is injected straight into the abdomen during surgery.
Musculoskeletal Oncology
For adults and children, limb-conserving procedures are ensured by applying advanced methods for soft tissue and bone tumours.
Pediatric Oncology
From soft-tissue sarcomas to brain tumours and leukaemia, our team of paediatric oncologists provide a whole range of treatments for children with cancer. The department is backed up by a paediatric intensive care unit, which allows close monitoring during the postoperative period.
