About the Department of Pediatric Oncology, Hematology, Pulmonology, Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, Hepatology, Infectology, Nephrology, Neurology and Epileptology at University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich

The Department of Pediatric Oncology, Hematology, Pulmonology, Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, Hepatology, Infectology, Nephrology, Neurology and Epileptology at the University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich offers the full range of medical services in all areas of its specialization. The health of young patients is in the safe hands of a large medical team, consisting of 60 highly specialized doctors and about 120 nursing staff. The specialists of the medical facility annually admit more than 5,000 inpatients, and about 1,500 children receive medical care at the day hospital. The department's doctors provide medical care to children of all age groups – from extremely premature babies weighing 500 grams to adolescents aged 18. The medical facility holds many specialized consultations, thanks to which young patients and their parents have the opportunity to receive detailed information about the diseases. During the diagnostics and treatment, doctors strictly meet the current clinical protocols and the requirements of professional societies. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Julia Hauer.

The priority focus of the department's doctors is the examination and treatment of young patients with benign and malignant solid tumors, blood cancer and clotting disorders. During the therapeutic process, the specialists are guided by the recommendations of the German Society for Paediatric Oncology and Hematology (GPOH). The department's specialists most often resort to such treatment methods as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and bone marrow transplantation. Should a surgical procedure be required, the highly specialized surgeons take care of the child. Children with incurable cancers receive competent palliative care aimed at relieving pain and improving their quality of life.

The treatment of heart disease in children also occupies an important place in the department's clinical practice. The department's diagnostic rooms have state-of-the-art equipment for electrocardiography, echocardiography, 24-hour blood pressure monitoring and other examinations. It is noteworthy that the department's doctors detect some heart defects even at the stage of intrauterine development of the fetus. The most common pathologies in the field of pediatric cardiology include congenital heart defects, heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), fainting (syncope), and infectious cardiovascular lesions. Quite often, drug therapy and regular diagnostic examinations are enough to eliminate the pathology, but there are also cases when interventional catheter-based interventions or even open heart surgery are required. The most effective treatment method is determined on an individual basis.

The team of gastroenterologists is responsible for examining children with suspected gastrointestinal diseases and treating these pathologies when the diagnosis is confirmed. The specialists have vast experience in the treatment of chronic abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, food allergies, lipid metabolism disorders, acute and chronic liver diseases, pancreatitis, short bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease and other pathologies. The main therapeutic methods include drug therapy, diet therapy, and endoscopic procedures. The specialists always strive to use the most sparing therapeutic methods.

The department also admits children and adolescents with neurological disorders: multiple sclerosis, mitochondriopathies, neurometabolic and neurodegenerative pathologies, infantile cerebral palsy, motor and developmental disorders, stroke, spina bifida and hydrocephalus. Of particular interest is the treatment of epilepsy in young patients. To make a diagnosis, doctors conduct comprehensive diagnostics, which necessarily includes electroencephalography and magnetic resonance imaging. To deal with epileptic seizures, the department's neurologists use modern antiepileptic drugs and a ketogenic diet. If, according to the diagnostic findings, the specialists come to the conclusion that such treatment will not give the desired result, it is possible to perform vagus nerve stimulation.
