The Center for Liver and Pancreatic Cancer Surgery specializes in surgical removal of liver cancer metastases
The Japanese Red Cross Medical Center is a modern multidisciplinary clinic. Founded in 1886, today the center is one of Japan’s key medical institutions providing high-tech care to patients of all ages — from newborns to the elderly.
The clinic has more than 40 clinical departments, approximately 700 beds, and a staff of over 1,700 specialists. The center is accredited by national medical organizations and is included in the World’s Best Smart Hospitals 2025 ranking, confirming its high level of digitalization and quality of medical care.
The center is a regional core hospital for cancer treatment, offering a comprehensive approach: surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy within a single institution.
A special place is occupied by the Center for Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, specializing in the treatment of liver, pancreatic, and biliary tract cancer. The team performs highly complex surgeries, including cases considered inoperable in other clinics. Another key advantage is the use of 3D modeling and navigational surgery, allowing for maximally precise surgical planning and enhanced safety, especially in cases of multiple metastases.
As a multidisciplinary center, the clinic covers a wide range of specialties: cardiology, neurology, gastroenterology, orthopedics, urology, endocrinology, and others.
The work is built on the principles of team medicine — physicians from different specialties participate in treatment, which is especially important for complex and rare diseases. The center also actively develops preventive medicine and comprehensive check-up programs.
