Nephrology
The institution is intended for the prevention, diagnostics and treatment of kidney diseases. The Department of Nephrology at the Niguarda Clinic also plans suitable therapy for individual cases with constant monitoring. When kidney function is definitively impaired, it is the task of the nephrologist to identify and suggest better alternatives, such as dialysis treatment (in the hospital or at home) or kidney transplant.
The institution participates in national and international clinical trial protocols, new approaches to the treatment of anemia and uremia-related osteodystrophy, as well as new immunosuppressive drugs in kidney transplantation. She is part of a multidisciplinary team that performs pancreatic islet transplantation in patients with type 1 diabetes, experimenting with new sites of engraftment.
Main Pathologies and Treatment Methods
- all forms of renal failure (primary and secondary to systemic diseases);
- kidney stones;
- renal tubulopathy, including congenital;
- pathology of electrolytes and calcium metabolism;
- dialysis to artificially compensate for the loss of function of natural organs;
- kidney transplantation to fully restore the quality of life of patients. Priority is given to a kidney transplant from a living donor (related or unrelated);
- combined kidney and pancreas transplantation in diabetic patients with renal insufficiency;
- isolated transplantation of the pancreas or pancreatic islets to restore endocrine function in patients with type 1 diabetes;
- rare diseases: cystinuria, Gitelman's syndrome and Bartter's syndrome, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, kidney with spongy medulla, Alport's syndrome, vasculitis with kidney damage, cryoglobulinemia, primary and familial amyloidosis.

Oncology
Specialists of the oncology department of the Niguarda Hospital conduct clinical trials for the treatment of solid tumors. The Department of Oncology is collaborating with the Niguarda Center for Sterility in the field of gamete cryopreservation to ensure reproductive options for people whose cancer or treatments threaten their ability to have children.
The department also specializes in oncological diseases with a lesser prevalence, such as tumors of the nasopharynx, germline neuroendocrine tumors.
Treatment of solid tumors is conducted with the help of an interdisciplinary method of work, high-tech diagnostic methods are used, such as advanced radiological diagnostics, integrated nuclear diagnostics.
