The disease at the Clinic

Reading time: 1 min

At the Gynaecologic Oncology Unit, more than 150 women with endometrial cancer are treated each year. 

The hospital has pioneered minimally invasive surgery, even in complex cases. Over 95% of patients are treated with this technique. In addition, there is a robotic surgery team that has extensive experience in this approach.   

Our Clinical Trials Unit allows patients to be treated within international, multicentre clinical trials with drugs under investigation, both in an adjuvant setting and in advanced or recurrent disease. Participating in these studies also allows the implementation of molecular diagnosis of endometrial cancer, to better understand the prognosis of the disease and avoid overtreatment.  

The brachytherapy techniques and procedures performed at the Clinic are advanced, and are performed in only a few centres in Spain.
