Hospital Universitario HM Sanchinarroでの精巣良性腫瘍治療

Hospital Universitario HM Sanchinarro is a private multi-specialty university hospital in Madrid, Spain. Opened in 2007, it serves as a primary teaching hospital within the Grupo HM Hospitales network. The facility holds EFQM and ISO 9001 certifications and is recognized as a center of excellence for training professionals in robotic surgery. The hospital also houses the Clara Campal Comprehensive Oncology Center (HM CIOCC).

The oncology department utilizes a multidisciplinary model to coordinate care among specialists. Together with HM CIOCC, the hospital features a Hyper-early Oncology Diagnosis Unit (Unidad de Diagnóstico Oncológico Hipertemprano), the first of its kind in Europe. Specialists use advanced molecular diagnostic tests to detect cancer in asymptomatic stages. The radiotherapy unit has been recognized by the Sanitary Reputation Monitor (MRS) as a top service in Spain.

Oncology and Radiotherapy

• Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) for lung, liver, and prostate tumors
• Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) and Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT)
• Frameless cranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for brain lesions
• Surface Guided Radiotherapy (SGRT) to monitor patient position
• Metabolic therapy for thyroid and neuroendocrine tumors in specialized rooms

Urology and Robotic Surgery

The urology team has performed over 1,200 procedures using robotic technology over 13 years. The hospital was the first in Spain to use the Da Vinci SP single-port robotic system and also utilizes Hugo RAS and Da Vinci Xi robots. Treatment options for kidney stones and prostate conditions include:

• Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL)
• Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS)
• Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL)
• Holmium laser enucleation (HoLEP) for benign prostate enlargement

Neurology and Neurosurgery

The neurosurgery unit utilizes intraoperative MRI (PoleStar N30) integrated with the StealthStation i7 navigator, allowing surgeons to verify tumor removal in real-time. Statistics associated with this technology show it can reach a 96% resection rate compared to 68% with conventional techniques. The neurology team treats conditions such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's, and performs mechanical thrombectomy for stroke patients.

Cardiology and Vascular Medicine

The cardiology unit provides 24-hour emergency care for acute myocardial infarction. The electrophysiology unit treats heart rhythm disorders, such as atrial fibrillation, using catheter ablation with radiofrequency, cryoablation, or pulsed field ablation. Vascular surgeons utilize a hybrid operating room for complex procedures, treating abdominal aortic aneurysms and utilizing stents for revascularization. Laser and radiofrequency treatments are available for chronic venous insufficiency.

Technological Equipment

• 3 Tesla and 1.5 Tesla High-Field MRI scanners
• 320-slice and 64-slice Multidetector CT scanners
• Biograph Horizon PET-CT and SPECT-CT
• Digital mammography with tomosynthesis and 3D automated breast ultrasound (ABUS)
• Linear accelerators including Versa HD and EDGE systems
• Koelis fusion biopsy system for prostate cancer

International Patient Services

Since 2012, the hospital has operated a dedicated international patient department providing 24/7 personalized care. The staff assists non-residents, students, and diplomatic personnel from Europe, the Arab League, and the Commonwealth. Patients have access to a portal and mobile application for managing results and appointments.
