We have the largest number of da Vinci surgeries performed in Japan,
including 616 gastrointestinal surgeries, 1,057 urological surgeries, 53 respiratory surgeries, and 71 gynecological surgeries.
Thus, making us the leader in robot-assisted surgery.
To minimize the recovery time and size of scars from surgery, we have always been keen on minimally invasive surgeries. We introduced endoscopic surgery into our arsenal at a very early stage and applied it to cancer treatments in various fields such as urology, gastroenterology, gynecology and thoracic surgery. Also, we have incorporated robot assisted surgery with 2 da Vinci Surgical Systems (Si and Xi), constantly improving our skills.
Cases
We are highly experienced in treatments of prostatic cancer, digestive system tumors, lung cancer and gynecological cancer.
