Stomach resection at Centro PAD in Madrid, Spain, is performed using advanced robotic and laparoscopic techniques. This surgery addresses both stomach cancer and severe obesity through precise, minimally invasive methods. Patients benefit from the clinic's location within the HLA Moncloa University Hospital, which is recognized among the World's Best Smart Hospitals 2023.
Centro PAD specializes in stomach resection using the Da Vinci robotic system, including the X, Xi, and 5 models. This technology allows surgeons to perform gastric procedures with millimetric precision. The robotic arms provide a greater range of motion than the human hand. This method typically results in less pain and smaller scars for the patient. The surgical team also performs laparoscopic surgery, another minimally invasive option that helps speed up the recovery process.
The surgical team treats two primary conditions with this procedure. For patients with stomach cancer, a gastrectomy removes the affected parts of the organ to stop the spread of the disease. The clinic also performs sleeve gastrectomy for individuals struggling with severe obesity. This weight-loss surgery reduces the size of the stomach to limit food intake. Both procedures focus on long-term health improvements using modern surgical protocols.
The digestive surgeons at Centro PAD have over 15 years of experience in the field. Together, the team has performed over 7,000 procedures. This high volume of surgeries contributes to their expertise in handling complex gastric cases. The clinic holds an ISO 45001 certification, which reflects their commitment to safety and quality standards in a clinical setting.
Because the clinic uses minimally invasive techniques, hospital stays are typically short. Patients experience a faster return to daily activities compared to traditional open surgery. Before traveling to Madrid, patients can request an online consultation to discuss their medical history. This helps in planning the surgical steps and understanding the expected outcomes.
