In the oncological centers of the clinics of Liv Ulus Hospital, Istinye Liv Hospital Bahceehir, Liv Hospital Vladistanbul, surgical treatment in patients with 1-2 stages of cancer is performed. The standard of surgical treatment of many types of cancer is robotic interventions using the Da Vinci system.
Radiation therapy is carried out using the latest radiotherapy technologies. For example, the Versa-HD HEXAPOD linear accelerator and the MR Linac Unity Electa innovative apparatus are used.
With the help of the surgical robot of the latest generation DA Vinci XI, surgeons successfully perform operations for the following types of cancer:
The qualifications of surgeons that specialize in the same type of cancer are very high. Therefore, the success indicator of these operations is approaching the same one as in many European clinics. For example, such an indicator of operations in gynecological cancer is 93%.
Performing operations to remove the tumor through several cuts up to 1 cm minimizes the risk of complications and significantly reduces the rehabilitation period of patients. This makes it possible to quickly begin the next stage of treatment – radiosurgery or chemotherapy.
In the Liv Hospital Ulus clinic in Istanbul, radiation therapy of cancer tumors is carried out on the innovative device MR Linac Unity Electa. In this device, a linear accelerator is combined with a powerful MRI scanner of 1.5 Tesla. MRI better than CT visualizes the tumor against the background of healthy tissues. As well, there is no additional radiation load on the patient, as in an X-ray examination.
During irradiation, a tumor is performed in real-time with an interval of less than one second. This allows the computer in MR Linac to automatically monitor the displacement of the tumor during inspiration and exhalation of the patient and adjust the beam with an accuracy of 0.05 mm.
In addition, the doctor takes into account changes in the size and density of the tumor after the previous session of radiotherapy and adjusts the dose of irradiation. This irradiation technology allows to maximize the dose and preserve healthy tissues next to the tumor. Therefore, the patient is usually carried out at first only 5 sessions of radiotherapy (instead of 30, which are prescribed during treatment with other devices).
Today, this technology of irradiation is the most advanced in the world. MR Linac gives a chance to recover for patients who had not previously suited radiotherapy. For example, patients with tumors constantly moving when breathing in the lungs or upper abdomen as well as patients with neoplasms that are difficult to irradiate due to organs located next to them, especially sensitive to irradiation of the stomach, kidneys, heart, and spinal cord.
Chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy are carried out according to the latest international treatment protocols with proven effectiveness. Oncologists use a personalized approach when prescribing treatment. They also use a number of technologies to minimize the side effects of therapy.
In order to maintain hair while introducing chemotherapy, the DIGNICAP system is used. A silicone hat cooled with a liquid is put on the patient’s head. This causes a narrowing of blood vessels on the scalp. The amount of medicine entering the hair follicles and hair loss is reduced.
In the oncological departments, the computer innovative Digital System Assisted Artificial Intelligence in Cancer Treatment has been introduced. The artificial intelligence of this system helps accurately calculate the doses of chemotherapy, targeted and immune drugs. The attending physician and nurse have access to the system. A robotic chemotherapeutic installation and a pharmacy are also connected to it. This system allows to optimize the chemotherapy process and completely adjust it to each patient.
In the Istinye Liv Hospital Bahceehir and Liv Hospital Vladistanbul clinics, world-class plastic surgeons work in specialized departments.
Operations are carried out by well-known specialists such as Prof. MD.Halil İbrahim Canter, having more than 25 years of experience and only positive reviews from patients. All doctors in this direction constantly undergo a training course abroad. Before performing surgery, they create on a computer a 3-D image of the nose, chest, face, and all other areas of the body after surgery and show it to the patient. Doctors select surgical techniques to achieve such an aesthetic result.
Plastic surgeons of Liv Hospital perform:
Effective non-surgical aesthetic procedures, including lipofilling, ultrasonic and thread lifting, all types of skin grinding, and injection of the patient’s own plasma are also available.
You can also come to Liv Hospital for complex reconstructive plastic surgery for a number of diseases:
Thanks to the professionalism of doctors, the rehabilitation period after all plastic surgery in Liv Hospital is very short.
All clinics of Liv Hospital admit for treatment of children from birth to 16 years of age with almost any disease. Children and adolescents with rare and severe diseases that require high-tech types of treatment turn to pediatric clinics especially often. Bone marrow transplantation is the most in-demand among them.
Liv Hospital Vladistanbul collaborates with the world-famous Boston Children’s Hospital. Turkish pediatricians treat all children in collaboration with American leading experts. The clinic has all the necessary equipment to perform diagnostics and treatment in accordance with these recommendations.
Most often, Liv Hospital admits for treatment children with cancer and hematological diseases, as well as for complex surgical interventions. Doctors seek cure with the help of minimally invasive surgical techniques. For example, three cases of a rare type of cancer in children (2 cases of ganglioneuroblastoma and retroperitoneal teratoma) are successfully cured by children’s surgeons with the help of operations without additional treatment.
In the clinics of Liv Hospital, you can undergo separate studies that are not available to many people at the place of residence. These include PET-KT, which is required by many patients receiving cancer treatment, as well as positron emission mammography (PEM), a variety of PET for the mammary gland. This PEM scanner exists only in a few clinics in the world. PEM allows to identify a tumor in the mammary gland with a size of 1-2 mm.
In LIV Hospital, in the conditions of the clinic, various Check-Up programs can be passed. These programs include a comprehensive examination of the patient and a doctor’s consultation. Check-UP programs are developed taking into account the age, gender, and risk of occurrence of certain diseases that Check-Up will help to identify at an early stage. For example, there are Check-Up for women after 45 years, Cardiological Check-Up, Check-UP for men after 65 years, etc.
In orthopedic departments, all types of prosthetics of the hip and knee joints are performed using a surgical robotic system MAKOplasty. This technology provides an individual approach to each patient, taking into account the anatomy of the joints. With the help of MAKOplasty, the surgeon can perfectly choose a prosthesis and then place it through the minimum cuts in such a way that immediately after the operation it functions as its own. This method 3 times increases the accuracy of installing the prosthesis, minimizes complications, and significantly reduces the rehabilitation period, which is important for patients who have come to Turkey.
Liv Hospital Ulus and Istinye Liv Hospital Bahceehir have an extensive experience in the surgical treatment of obesity. The surgeons Emer Avlanmıs (Ömer Avlanmış) and Murat Sendur, qualified in this area, perform all types of minimally invasive and robotic stomach interventions in patients with pathological obesity. For example, they perform sleeve gastrectomy (stomach suturing) in 45 minutes. Patients can return to everyday life within 1 week. Patients begin to lose weight immediately after surgery. They can lose up to 3-4 kg in 2-3 days of stay in the hospital. Weight loss occurs quickly in the first months and persists for 1-1.5 years. Patients lose 75-80% of excess weight. The success indicator of these operations in Liv Hospital is from 80% to 95%.
Diseases of coronary vessels and heart valves, which can be effectively cured with the help of minimally invasive and robotic operations, are treated in LIV Hospital.
In all clinics, Liv Hospital in Istanbul performs coronary artery bypass grafting through three punctures in the underarm area and a cut between ribs 4 cm long without cardiac arrest.
The success indicator of such an operation is 97%.
As well, cardiac surgeons perform minimally invasively the replacement of the mitral valve.
Implantation of the aortic valve through the femoral artery (TAVI procedure) has long been a standard therapeutic procedure, including in elderly patients.
In neurosurgery centers, there are European-level specialists. These include, for example, Professor Ilkhan Elmachi (Prof. MD. İlhan Elmacı). The doctor studied at the American Medical University Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He worked as a leading specialist in the best clinics in Turkey. Currently, Professor Elmachi leads a team of neurosurgeons at LIV Hospital Ulus. He successfully performs the most difficult operations on the brain and spinal cord in adults and children, including minimally invasive methods.
Liv Hospital was originally conceived as a world-class clinic network, in which patients from other countries will be treated. Therefore, the leading clinic Liv Hospital Ulus is located near the international airport.
All clinics feature advanced technologies and the most professionally prepared doctors, who are often not inferior to their colleagues in university clinics in Europe.
In Liv Hospital, you can deal with any medical problem at any age. At the same time, the cost of diagnosis and treatment is not higher than in the most famous clinics in Turkey.
The services of patients include not only European and world-class medicine with an optimal cost/quality ratio but also excellent conditions of stay and premium-class service.
