We know that there are organizations and collaborators that have contributed a lot to the growth of the Institut in these years. Would you like to send them a message?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, thanks for the question. I would like to mention the names of the people who have supported us in the project, which is mainly the dissemination of the discoveries we have made in our research, especially the fact that we have discovered a disease that affects all human being. It is our purpose to help all patients suffering from this disease and its different forms and manifestations. There are some people who have helped us in a better way and have adapted to the criteria that we have developed to achieve our purpose and I would like to name these people who have helped us most, mainly in our journey to help others.<\/p>\n<p>So I will use a note for not forgetting any: especially the\u00a0<strong>head professors of Human Anatomy at the Faculty of Medicine of Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Barcelona (Autonomous University of Barcelona)<\/strong>, led by emeritus\u00a0<strong>professor<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Jose Maria Domenech Mateu<\/strong>\u00a0and the current head professor\u00a0<strong>Dr Alfonso Rodriguez Baeza<\/strong>, both patrons of our Chiari &amp; Scoliosis &amp; Syringomyelia Foundation. With the emeritus professor, I started the investigations of everything we have done so far and it was around 1975 and from then until now they have helped us to understand the functional, anatomical and mechanical role of everything that this Filum Disease entails.<\/p>\n<p>I would also like to thank our collaborators in Barcelona, our trusted anesthesiologist,\u00a0<strong>Dr Gabriel Oll\u00e9<\/strong>, with all the anaesthetists\u2019 team of the CIMA hospital,\u00a0<strong>Dr Antoni Hern\u00e1ndez from the Corachan Clinic<\/strong>\u00a0and all the Spanish collaborators, especially\u00a0<strong>Dr Antonio Victoria Ram\u00edrez<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, in Italy, I want to mention, in an especial way, the name of\u00a0<strong>Centro Medico Mantia de Palermo<\/strong>, led by\u00a0<strong>Doctors Roberto and Fabrizio Mantia<\/strong>, which is our reference centre for the rehabilitation of our system Filum System<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>Also, I would like to mention about\u00a0<strong>Hospital Regional AMG Centrum Medyczne of Ryki, Lublin<\/strong>, Poland, with\u00a0<strong>professor Krzysztof Turowski<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Dr Marek W\u00f3jtowicz<\/strong>, reference persons for the diagnostic and Filum Disease post surgery control in Poland.<\/p>\n<p>In Italy, I would like to thank Dr Francesco Croce, to the\u00a0<strong>Dr Giacomo Caruso<\/strong>\u00a0neurosurgeon, to\u00a0<strong>Dr Filippo Iafanti<\/strong>, also to\u00a0<strong>Dr Patrick Ghigny<\/strong>\u00a0from Belgium.<\/p>\n<p>In a very special way, I would like to thank lawyer of\u00a0<strong>Barcelona Joana Mar\u00edn Fonseca<\/strong>, lawyer and patron of our Chiari &amp; Scoliosis &amp; Syringomyelia Foundation, who has supported us both personally and with legal advice in all our activities of the Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>And also to the lawyer\u00a0<strong>Bego\u00f1a Guerrero<\/strong>\u00a0who, through her law firm, has allowed us to carry out all the legal, tax and representation actions with maximum transparency.<\/p>\n<p>I would also like to thank the consultancy Biconsulting, to\u00a0<strong>Mrs Diaz<\/strong>\u00a0and Mr\u00a0<strong>Landecho<\/strong>, whose direction has allowed us to accredit our investigations among them the accreditation from the Spanish Ministry of Industry and Research.<\/p>\n<p>I also want to thank Doctoralia along with\u00a0<strong>Dr Frederic Llordachs<\/strong>, who has helped us to have a medical vision, has helped us in the dissemination of our Institute at the level of medical visits.<\/p>\n<p>I want to thank the patients\u2019 associations in a very special way. It is really interesting that patients\u2019 associations do a great job and all of it in a totally altruistic way. They have a dilemma, a decision to make: support people or support doctors they trust. And in this way, they also support their projects.<\/p>\n<p>Without any doubt, the association that has supported the most and supports our projects, with the guidelines to help everyone, regardless of their personal interests, is the\u00a0<strong>International Association AI.SAC.SI.SCO Onlus<\/strong>, based in Italy and another office in France. I would like to send a very affectionate greeting to the current President Marisa Toscano, who has understood very well from the beginning what our purpose is. It is not the particular interest of a group of Italian patients who are interested in being operated, but she has understood that by supporting us, she supports us in the international project of diffusion of the new concept of the disease and thus helps others in the best way.<\/p>\n<p>In the same way, I want to name and thank\u00a0<strong>the Op\u00e9ration Olivier \u00e0 Barcelone<\/strong>\u00a0Association, which is currently called\u00a0<strong>Arnold Chiari Syringomyelie Alternative<\/strong>\u00a0formed by\u00a0<strong>Mrs. Brigitte Causeret<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Nathalie Pag\u00e9<\/strong>, who have always shown an undoubted interest in our work and thanks to this association we have participated in the health policy of France, involving 13 deputies of the French National Assembly. I also want to thank\u00a0<strong>Ms Emmanuelle Tarquini, Ms Laurence Guillois<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Ms C\u00e9cilia Merlo<\/strong>\u00a0from the\u00a0<strong>On Bouge Pour Arnold Association<\/strong>. And also to the\u00a0<strong>Team Gazelle Renegades<\/strong>\u00a0of Emmanuelle and C\u00e9cilia who, through the Rallye A\u00efcha des Gazelles, have helped in dissemination our Filum System<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0method. Also, I would like to mention the name of Association\u00a0<strong>Coup De Pouce Pour Lilou<\/strong>, which is created by the parents of a patient operated, to raise funds for the intervention of his brother Bastien. They have also helped other patients to get the reimbursement and the necessary help for the treatment here in Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p>And also I thank the Norwegian Association\u00a0<strong>Chiari &amp; Syringomyeli Norge<\/strong>\u00a0for their contributions and their help provided to patients from Norway in getting closer to us and get the treatment that can help them more in their diseases of Chiari and Syringomyelia and idiopathic scoliosis.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you all and I hope for your help to spread the word about our discovery in the best possible way.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>&gt;Thanks a lot Doctor.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":105878,"template":"","tipos-de-comunicacion":[538],"class_list":["post-105877","comunicacion","type-comunicacion","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tipos-de-comunicacion-press"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Dr Royo thanks collaborators | ICSEB<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Message of gratitude from Dr. Royo-Salvador to collaborators and patient associations on the institute\u2019s anniversary.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/institutchiaribcn.com\/en\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Dr Royo thanks collaborators | ICSEB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Message of gratitude from Dr. Royo-Salvador to collaborators and patient associations on the institute\u2019s anniversary.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/institutchiaribcn.com\/en\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Institut Chiari\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-01-27T10:18:54+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/institutchiaribcn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dr-royo-asociaciones.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"5 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/\",\"name\":\"Dr Royo thanks collaborators | ICSEB\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/dr-royo-asociaciones.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2018-07-30T22:00:00+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-01-27T10:18:54+00:00\",\"description\":\"Message of gratitude from Dr. Royo-Salvador to collaborators and patient associations on the institute\u2019s anniversary.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/dr-royo-asociaciones.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/dr-royo-asociaciones.jpg\",\"width\":200,\"height\":200},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/dr-royo-thanking-collaborators-collaborators\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Portada\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Comunicaci\u00f3n\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/institutchiaribcn.com\\\/en\\\/comunicacion\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"On the 10th anniversary of the Institut Chiari &#038;
