Pioneer in Spain for submucosal endoscopic dissection – Dr Sanchez Yague introduced this technique in Andalusia after specialized training in Japan.
Dr. Sanchez Yague is a gastroenterologist at Quirónsalud Marbella in Spain. He was the first professional globally to use the 15-mm AXIOS stent. This device drains pancreatic fluid collections. He pioneered submucosal endoscopic dissection in Spain. Dr. Sanchez Yague also introduced gastroenteroanastomosis with luminal apposition stents to Andalusia.
Quirónsalud Marbella is a JCI-accredited hospital in Spain's largest private hospital network. Its main specialties are plastic surgery and medical check-ups. Located on the Costa del Sol, it treats 30,000 patients each year.
I'm the Director of Clínica San Clemente and of the GenderMedic Unit, based in Zaragoza. I specialize in plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery, performing breast surgery, facial and body procedures, hair restoration, and aesthetic medicine — the full spectrum of what a patient's journey may require, under one roof and one standard of care.
I trained through the MIR program at Hospital Universitario Miguel Servet in Zaragoza, and I'm a full member of the Spanish Society of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery (SECPRE) and of SUNRA. What I care about most isn't just the technical result — it's building a team capable of handling every case with the same rigor, whether it's a straightforward procedure or a complex, multidisciplinary journey.
That same commitment is why I founded Fundación Sigo Adelante, through which I personally perform reconstructive surgical missions in countries with limited medical access — because excellence should reach further than a clinic's walls. I lead the same standard of honesty, safety and personalized care at GenderMedic, where I coordinate a multidisciplinary team dedicated to gender affirmation.
Your wellbeing and your confidence in the results are, and will always be, my responsibility.

"},"overview":{"text":"Esophagectomy is a surgical procedure to remove part or all of the esophagus, often used to treat esophageal cancer.
A hospital stay for an esophagectomy in Spain typically lasts between 7 and 14 days. Patients usually spend the initial 1 to 2 days in the intensive care unit for specialized monitoring before moving to a surgical ward for the remaining recovery period.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Data from leading Spanish centers like Clinica Universidad de Navarra and Hospital Ruber Internacional highlights a trend toward earlier discharge. High-volume hospitals that perform over 20,000 surgeries annually often utilize enhanced recovery protocols. These systems prioritize early mobilization and specialized nutritional support to help patients return home within the 9-day median timeframe.
Patient Consensus: Most patients focus on the importance of the first 48 hours in the ICU as the most critical phase. They emphasize that while medical discharge occurs within 2 weeks, adjusting to new dietary habits is the most significant long-term transition.
","is_active":true,"category":{"id":"68f5f2ea1567cb687e0a7542","name":"faq_content","title":"faq_content"}},{"id":"6a3bb7d014e2ff61f20ea1a2","question":"How long does an esophagectomy surgery take?","answer":"An esophagectomy surgery typically takes 6 to 8 hours of active operating time. The duration varies based on surgical techniques, such as minimally invasive or open approaches. Specialized centers in Spain, like Centro Médico Teknon, use advanced Da Vinci Xi robotic systems to optimize surgical precision.
Bookimed Expert Insight: While the operating time is significant, the surgeon experience in Spain is a key differentiator. Top-tier clinics like Hospital Ruber Internacional and Hospital Universitario HM Madrid perform thousands of operations annually. Data shows that hospitals with high patient volumes and JCI accreditation often maintain better outcomes for this complex procedure.
Patient Consensus: Patients emphasize that while the surgery day is long, the real challenge is adapting to a reduced stomach capacity of 2 ounces. Many recommend using wedge pillows for sleep to manage post-operative reflux during the first 2 years of adaptation.
","is_active":true,"category":{"id":"68f5f2ea1567cb687e0a7542","name":"faq_content","title":"faq_content"}},{"id":"6a3bb850ffca5cbd5a0f1352","question":"Will my entire esophagus be removed?","answer":"Esophagectomy in Spain rarely involves removing your entire esophagus unless tumors span its full length. Surgeons typically perform a partial esophagectomy, removing only the diseased segment and surrounding tissue to ensure clear margins while preserving as much healthy organ as possible.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Spanish oncology centers like Clinica Universidad de Navarra maintain top-tier outcomes by integrating high-level robotics with JCI-accredited safety standards. While Ivor Lewis procedures are common, the choice between transthoracic and transhiatal approaches often depends on the specific surgical volume of the hospital.
Patient Consensus: Many patients find they must adapt to sleeping on a wedge pillow permanently to prevent reflux. While the extent of removal varies, most focus on the year-long journey toward comfortable eating.
","is_active":true,"category":{"id":"68f5f2ea1567cb687e0a7542","name":"faq_content","title":"faq_content"}},{"id":"6a3bb8d2772b2b69170aa812","question":"What are the side effects after an esophagectomy?","answer":"An esophagectomy typically causes short-term fatigue, loss of appetite, and swallowing discomfort. Long-term side effects include dumping syndrome, chronic acid reflux, and weight loss. Patients often require permanent dietary adjustments and must sleep at an angle to prevent aspiration and regurgitation during recovery.
Bookimed Expert Insight: While esophagectomy is complex, Spain offers some of the highest-rated oncology facilities globally. Centers like Hospital Ruber Internacional and Centro Médico Teknon are JCI-accredited and use Da Vinci Xi robotic systems. These technologies often lead to smaller incisions, which help reduce the long-term flank pain and numbness common with traditional open surgery.
Patient Consensus: Many patients find that while digestive patterns change permanently, quality of life improves significantly after the initial 12-week recovery. Consistency with small meals and managing late dumping syndrome after eating carbs are the most vital daily habits reported.

Esophagectomy physically removes any remaining microscopic cancer cells and affected lymph nodes to prevent local recurrence and achieve a curative outcome for esophageal cancer.
Bookimed Expert Insight: While costs for esophagectomy in Spain range from _op_216_price_from_ to _op_216_price_to_, the real value lies in technology access. Clinics like Centro Médico Teknon and Hospital Ruber Internacional utilize Da Vinci Xi robotic systems. This advanced precision helps surgeons navigate complex chest anatomy more safely than traditional open methods.
Patient Consensus: Many patients find surgery the only way to feel truly cancer-free despite the tough two-month initial recovery. They emphasize starting physical activity early and working with therapists to manage post-surgical swelling and new dietary habits.
