The development of the endocrine system of surgery progressed during the 20th century. It meant a major change in the concept of surgery from "radical" to "functional". The surgeon's actions aim to improve the body's functions and to intervene into the corporal endocrine system.

Dr. Martin Duce has been working in Endocrine Surgery for over 15 years following his specialised training at the Clínica de la Concepción, by Dr. San Román Terán, the leading international surgical authority in this field. He also advanced his training at the New York Memorial Hospital and the M.D.Anderson Cancer Center of Houston. This progression is supported by many hundreds of patients with successful operation outcomes after thyroid and para-thyroid surgery.

This extensive experience has enabled the acknowledgement of such work by the medical body, surgeons and endocrinologists as well as new surgical procedures such as the Thyroid and Para-thyroid surgery with minimal invasion thereby reducing the time of hospitalisation and the associated risks that entails.

Furthermore, the practice of small incisions and the closing of the wound by way of intradermic sutures, enable an excellent aesthetic result to be achieved. This is very often highly appreciated by the patient, the majority of whom are female.
