ONCOSURGERY IN Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital
The Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital has modern technology in operating rooms. Thus, under the auspices of the TEDECA Foundation, the clinic was equipped with a Da Vinci robotic system. It is actively used to remove tumors without complications. Among the innovative methods of surgical cancer treatment in the clinic are available:
hyperthermic chemotherapy HIPEC;
electrochemotherapy;
intraoperative radiation therapy IORT;
focused ultrasound ablation MRI-HIFU;
isolated perfusion of limbs.

Treatment of carcinomatosis with hyperthermic chemotherapy according to the Sugarbaker method
Carcinomatosis is a life-threatening manifestation of stage 4 cancer in which metastases penetrate into the membranes of internal organs. It develops in 20% of patients with malignant tumors. For a long time, patients with such a diagnosis lived no more than 6 months. However, the strategy for the treatment of carcinomatosis at the Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital prolongs the life of patients.
Therapy for carcinomatosis consists of two stages. The surgeon first removes the tumor and part of the abdomen. Then the patient is injected with a solution of chemotherapy drugs, heated to 43 degrees Celsius. So doctors destroy up to 90% of cancer cells in the human body. This treatment reduces the risk of relapse. Depending on the location of the tumor, the 5-year patient survival rate increases to 31-50%.
Removing a liver tumor with MRI-HIFU
MRI-guided radiofrequency ultrasound ablation is a non-surgical treatment for liver cancer. Unlike surgery, the ablation process is almost painless, without bleeding or risk of infection. In 90% of patients at the Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital, a decrease or complete disappearance of the tumor is observed after ultrasound ablation. The availability of this method is especially important for patients with inoperable liver cancer. MRI-HIFU can save their lives.
Isolated limb perfusion for melanoma and soft tissue sarcoma
The method of isolated perfusion of the limbs of the ILC involves the introduction of large doses of chemotherapy into the area where the tumor is located. In this case, blood flow to this part is temporarily stopped. Thus, it is possible to avoid the pronounced side effects of chemotherapy. More than 80% of people in stage 2 and 50% of patients in stage 3 go into five-year remission, despite a dangerous illness. ILK also allows cancer treatment without limb amputation and avoiding postoperative complications. The availability of this method in the Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital allows 87% of patients to undergo organ-preserving treatment.
Electrochemotherapy for inoperable skin cancer
With the help of electrochemotherapy, drugs can be more accurately delivered to the tumor. The effectiveness of treatment is achieved through short and intense electrical impulses that act on the membrane of the cancer cell and thus transfer the drug. Electrochemotherapy helps more than 80% of patients with melanoma, Kaposi's sarcoma, stage 4 squamous cell skin cancer. This method is not available in all clinics in Europe and the CIS, and Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital is one of several centers where a patient with inoperable skin cancer will receive effective treatment.
Intraoperative radiation therapy for breast, stomach, or pancreatic cancer
IORT radiation therapy is performed during surgery. After the doctor has removed the tumor, the edges of the organ are irradiated. This eliminates the remaining cancer cells and reduces the risk of relapse, as the patient does not need to wait a month for classical radiotherapy. Intraoperative radiotherapy requires expensive equipment that can accurately deliver radiation doses. The Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital is equipped with the newest IORT device - the Mobetron Intraop.
BREAST CANCER TREATMENT BY THE "ONE STEP" PROGRAM
Women with stage 0-2 breast cancer can completely cure the disease at the Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital. To do this, they have access to the One Step program. It involves diagnostics, treatment and a rehabilitation program without repeated visits to the hospital.
iagnosis of a breast tumor in the initial stages includes:
consultation with an oncologist;
laboratory tests for tumor markers;
ultrasound of the mammary glands;
tumor biopsy;
breast MRI;
genetic test for the presence of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations.
Thorough diagnostics will help to accurately identify the stage of the disease and the location of the tumor. It is possible to remove breast cancer in the Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital using minimally invasive methods using:
focused ultrasound ablation MRI-HIFU;
Da Vinci robotic surgery;
intraoperative radiotherapy.
Early treatment does not require complete breast removal. Doctors remove the tumor and, if necessary, remove the lymph nodes. However, this strategy does not provide a 100% guarantee that there will be no relapse. A radical mastectomy is a more reliable option. In this case, the surgeons at the Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital immediately perform breast reconstruction with TRAM or DIEP prostheses.
With timely treatment for breast cancer in Spain, 90% of patients can live more than 20 years in remission.

Review oт the cancer diagnostics in IN the TORREVIEJA QUIRONSALUD HOSPITAL




Ksenia: "Our impressions of the Torrevieja Quironsalud Hospital are positive. At the hospital we were met by Russian-speaking specialists, as well as an interpreter. By the way, we did not pay for the translator, his services were included in the cost of treatment. Everyone liked the Quiron Torrevieja Hospital: from caring staff to modern equipment. It is neat, clean and comfortable here. There are no queues, flea market and other delights that are found in other medical institutions. For patients with children, there are waiting areas equipped with corners with books, toys and other entertainments for babies. The doctors of the Quiron Torrevieja clinic were perplexed how our child could have been given such a terrible diagnosis, which was not confirmed. As a result, we were given recommendations and prescribed treatment for other pathologies identified during the diagnosis. Thanks to doctors from Torrevieja for their responsible approach, empathy and professionalism!"
