Leading-Edge Techniques
Our unit employs the most recent surgical techniques. Whenever possible, we perform minimally-invasive surgery (laparoscopic and robotic), which reduces postoperative complications, or outpatient surgery, which enables patients to return home the same day.
Backed by ultramodern diagnostic and testing facilities (operating suite, CT scanner, MRI, PET scanner), the members of our digestive surgery unit ensure the continuous delivery of care and 24/7 surgical treatment of acute disorders.
We constantly collaborate with other specialists at the American Hospital of Paris. The advisability of surgical intervention is examined following discussion with the anesthesiologists, radiologists and specialists involved.
The quality and safety of the care we provide are continually evaluated through internal and external audit procedures.
