Hemangioma treatment at Centro Médico Teknon

Hemangioma treatment is available at Centro Médico Teknon in Barcelona, Spain. An initial consultation typically costs around €350, diagnostics may range from €800 to €2,000, and specialized surgical options like liver resection run around €18,000. The clinic's key advantage is its dual-team approach, pairing a world-renowned neurosurgeon with 46 years of experience and a leading hepatobiliary surgeon.

The clinic offers two distinct surgical pathways for hemangioma. Neurosurgical intervention is led by Dr. Bartolome Oliver, MD, PhD. A Professor and President of the European Skull Base Society, he brings 46 years of experience and has performed over 1,100 procedures. He specializes in complex spinal cord hemangiomas using expert microsurgical techniques.

For liver hemangiomas, Dr. Alberto Diez-Caballero, with 33 years of experience, performs hepatic resections. He has completed over 900 treatments. This surgery can be performed using open or laparoscopic (minimally invasive) techniques. The goal is to remove the tumor while preserving healthy liver tissue.

Diagnostic Process

All treatment begins with a thorough evaluation. The diagnostic phase includes:

• Specialist consultation with a neurosurgeon or hepatobiliary surgeon.
• Diagnostic imaging such as MRI, CT, or ultrasound, tailored to the hemangioma's location.
• Preoperative workup with blood tests, ECG, and anesthesia assessment.

Treatment Options and Pricing

Treatment is highly specialized based on tumor location. Pricing reflects the complexity of care.

• Neurosurgical Hemangioma Surgery: Performed by Dr. Oliver, this may cost around €35,000–€40,000. The package includes hospitalization, anesthesia, and postoperative follow-up care.
• Liver Resection for Hepatic Hemangioma: This procedure typically runs €18,000–€25,000. It covers the surgical team, a 5-7 day hospital stay in a private room, anesthesia, and all post-operative monitoring.
