Robotic Surgery Department

The first Da Vinci system unit in South Greece has been installed at Interbalkan.

Surgeries applying Da Vinci robot are minimally invasive through small 1 cm punctures. A surgeon manages the robotic instruments with 100% accuracy of movements. It allows removing the neoplasm completely without damaging healthy tissues.

Due to a low injury rate of tissues during the surgery, a patient recovers faster, severe pain is absent, scarring is barely noticeable.

Doctors carry out such interventions applying Da Vinci robot:

  • bladder removal
  • stomach resection
  • removal of benign and malignant stomach neoplasms
  • gastric bypass
  • removal of cysts and myomas of ovaries
  • uterine removal
  • prostate removal
  • surgeries on the kidneys and bladder.

 

Da Vinci surgery

Cardiology and Heart Surgery Department

Doctors of the Department specialize in medicamentous, surgical, and minimally invasive treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Such operations are conducted here:

  • angioplasty — the widening of the affected artery
  • installation of a pacemaker, defibrillator
  • heart valve replacement
  • coronary artery bypass graft.

Interventional cardiology — minimally invasive heart surgeries

Specialists conduct heart diagnosis and treatment using a fine needle — a catheter. Procedures are performed under X-ray control, and a doctor watches for the intervention process on the monitor.

With this catheter, doctors place stents and balloons in the constricted vessels, carry out a correction and heart valve replacement.

After such sparing intervention, a patient recovers faster than after open surgery.

Neurosurgery Department

Doctors of the Department specialize in:

  • minimally invasive interventions of the spinal cord — through small punctures 5 mm - 3 cm in size
  • brain tumors removal — meningiomas, gliomas
  • treatment of brain hematomas, hydrocephalus, brain injuries
  • surgical treatment of the peripheral nerves diseases.

Surgical treatment of neurological disorders

Doctors use the innovative treatment options: deep brain stimulation, pump implantation.

Deep brain stimulation is an installation of a special chip, which stimulates the adequate brain lobes work. The technique is applied in neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, Tourette’s syndrome.

Pump implantation is a method of treating muscle spasms, which is used in cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury and after a stroke.

Oncology Department

Doctors of the Department cooperate with MD Anderson Cancer Center in the USA. Specialists regularly intershare the experience with the foreign colleagues.

Treatment methods applied at Interbalkan:

  • chemotherapy
  • targeted therapy — drugs that affect directly the malignant cells not harming the healthy ones
  • combined chemo- and radiotherapy
  • IMRT — intensity-modulated radiation therapy. The apparatus maximally irradiates the affected area and does not influence the healthy tissues.

Complete examination (check-up)

Check-up at Interbalkan is a screening of a health condition for 1 day. There are different programs available in the hospital — general, gynecologic, urological, and cardiac check-ups.

A patient does not require admission to undergo the diagnostics. All procedures take 3-8 hours. After morning testing, patients have breakfast — tea, coffee, croissants.

I was very pleased with the care I received and the results of my treatment
The hospital is big. This has both positive and negative points . Due to the number of people, sometimes it resembles a shopping center. And it adds a bit of chaos, both to the logistics of finding the right department or office, and to the general atmosphere. Doctors and staff are most friendly and helpful.
