Μια ακόμη “αλυσίδα ζωής” ολοκληρώθηκε με επιτυχία.
Πριν από τρεις εβδομάδες, η ομάδα μας στη Μεταμοσχευτική Κλινική του Γενικού Νοσοκομείου Λευκωσίας πραγματοποίησε μεταμόσχευση νεφρού στο πλαίσιο διεθνούς προγράμματος διασταυρούμενης δωρεάς Κύπρου–Ισραήλ.

Ευγνωμοσύνη προς τους δότες και τις οικογένειές τους, τους συναδέλφους από το εξωτερικό για την άψογη συνεργασία και όλη την ομάδα μας που εργάζεται με αφοσίωση για να προσφέρει μια πραγματική δεύτερη ευκαιρία στη ζωή.

Περήφανοι που η Κύπρος συμμετέχει ενεργά σε προηγμένα προγράμματα μεταμοσχεύσεων.

#Μεταμόσχευση

✈️ FOEDUS Organ Exchange — A Milestone for Cyprus

For the first time, through the FOEDUS European platform, our team at Nicosia General Hospital offered organs from a brain-dead donor to the European network.

The liver was accepted by the Warsaw Transplant Center in Poland, one of Europe’s largest and most active liver transplant units, performing around 400 liver transplants annually. Their team traveled to Cyprus, retrieved the liver, and returned with it on a domestic flight.

Meanwhile, our transplant team successfully retrieved the kidneys and performed two kidney transplants locally in Cyprus.

This achievement reflects European collaboration and solidarity in organ donation, ensuring that every possible opportunity to save lives is realized — across borders.

A heartfelt thank you to the donor and their family, and to all the coordinators, anesthetists, nurses, nephrologists, and surgical teams whose professionalism and dedication made this possible.

At El Greco Medical Centre we continuously embrace innovations that improve surgical precision and patient outcomes.

The introduction of a stapler with 90° articulation provides a valuable tool for advanced laparoscopic procedures — allowing safer stapling in difficult anatomical areas and often reducing the need for additional ports or devices.

A small step in technology that makes a meaningful difference for both surgeons and patients.

Just 7 days after surgery, our patient is already going home following a minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagogastrectomy!

This is the power of modern, minimally invasive surgery: less pain, faster recovery, and a quicker return home.

Grateful for the trust of our patients and proud of what our team achieves together.

This is how a patient looks just 6 days after a minimally invasive esophagogastrectomy!

Moments like this remind us why we continue to advance minimally invasive surgery: to ensure our patients achieve the best possible outcome with the fastest and safest recovery.

💥 Another Surgical Milestone Achieved – Laparoscopically!

We recently performed a radical right nephrectomy on a patient with a tumour that had extended into the IVC (inferior vena cava).
This is one of the most challenging types of kidney cancer surgeries — and we did it entirely laparoscopically!

👏 Hats off to the amazing team of El Greco Medical Centre for achieving what very few centers in the world can do minimally invasively.
