About the clinic
Lymph node dissection at Memorial Şişli Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, is an oncological procedure performed to remove and examine lymph nodes for cancer cells. The hospital is known for being the first in Turkey to receive JCI accreditation, meeting high international safety standards. Patients benefit from a surgical team that follows NCCN and ESMO protocols to create personalized treatment plans.
Advanced Surgical Methods
The hospital uses minimally invasive techniques for lymph node removal. These methods include laparoscopy, endoscopy, and the Da Vinci robotic system. Surgeons operate through small incisions measuring only 1–3 cm. This approach causes less trauma to the body than traditional open surgery. The robotic system provides the surgeon with high-precision control during the delicate process of removing nodes near major blood vessels.
Diagnosis and Planning
Every case starts with a 64-slice CT scan for a detailed tumor examination. Before surgery, a multidisciplinary oncology council reviews the patient's records. This team includes experts from different medical fields who work together to plan the most effective surgery. This collaborative step helps verify that the surgical plan matches the specific needs of the patient's condition.
Recovery and Patient Care
Small incisions help patients heal much faster. Recovery typically takes between 5 and 10 days. The minimally invasive approach also leaves no significant scars. This hospital was the first in Turkey to receive a LEED Platinum certificate for its healthy and eco-friendly environment. Following surgery, the medical team provides care based on international guidelines to support a smooth healing process.
