About the department

The Department of General and Abdominal Surgery, Colorectal Surgery, Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery, Hernia Surgery and Bariatric Surgery at the Brothers of Mercy Hospital Munich provides the full range of surgical treatment in its field of competence. The department's highly qualified surgeons annually perform about 2,000 surgical interventions. Extensive clinical experience allows the specialists to perform even particularly complex operations. The department’s advanced operating rooms serve for surgery to treat gastrointestinal diseases, liver, gallbladder, bile duct, pancreatic, rectal, anal and colon pathologies. The medical facility also successfully performs operations to treat hernias: inguinal, umbilical, and anterior abdominal wall hernias. In addition, the department's doctors deal with the surgical treatment of morbid obesity. Minor traumatic laparoscopic interventions are considered the gold standard, which guarantee a patient minimal risks and rapid postoperative restoration. Surgeons tell the patient in detail about their upcoming treatment and, in every possible way, support them in their recovery. The department is headed by PD Dr. med. Johann Spatz.

The department's general and abdominal surgeons provide the surgical treatment of benign and malignant diseases of all abdominal organs, while the priority is on treating the digestive organs. The specialists most often deal with appendix removal, gallbladder operations, surgical treatment of diverticulitis, soft tissue tumor removal, and abscess drainage. Doctors have exceptional competence in the treatment of abdominal organs. The specialists also perform operations for emergency conditions: perforations of the gastrointestinal organs, intestinal invagination, internal bleeding, acute pancreatitis, etc.

Of particular interest in the field of colorectal surgery is the treatment of bowel and rectal cancer, which is carried out in the certified center of the German Cancer Society. The treatment regimen is usually determined during tumor boards with the participation of surgeons, oncologists, chemotherapists, radiation therapists and other specialists. The surgical resection of a malignant tumor is practically the basis of the treatment regimen in all clinical situations. In most cases, low-traumatic surgical techniques are used, which exclude high risks and severe pain. In addition, patients with metastatic cancer are offered specially developed multimodal treatment regimens.

The main area of ​​work of hepatopancreatobiliary surgeons is operations for benign and malignant liver diseases, pancreas, bile ducts and gallbladder. Surgical treatment is performed using modern minimally invasive and hybrid techniques (combination of laparoscopic and open surgical techniques). In cooperation with specialists in interventional radiology, thermal ablation and embolization can be carried out for liver cancer treatment. The department has the German Cancer Society's certificate in treating liver cancer, which indicates the high competence of doctors and adherence to standards of modern surgery.

The department's surgeons often deal with hernias in their clinical practice. The specialists perform surgical treatment of inguinal, umbilical, and anterior abdominal wall hernias. To repair hernias, the department's surgeons resort to minimally invasive and classic open techniques. Whenever possible, preference is given to the most sparing type of treatment. Sometimes hernia surgery is carried out on an outpatient basis, under local anesthesia. The department's work in hernia repair surgery is marked by a quality certificate from the German Hernia Society. In addition, the surgeons in this area regularly exchange experience with their colleagues from the European Hernia Society, which contributes to achieving the best therapeutic results.

The department also offers bariatric surgery services. The surgeons of this profile perform operations for morbid obesity in patients who cannot get rid of excess weight with diet, physical exercises and drug therapy. Excess weight is not only an aesthetic problem, but also entails many health risks, including the development of diabetes mellitus, osteoarthritis, and obstructive sleep apnea. The department's bariatric surgeons specialize in sleeve gastroplasty, mini gastric bypass and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The interventions mentioned above are performed using minimally invasive methods. After surgery, the patient is supervised by nutritionists, physiotherapists and psychologists who develop an individual treatment plan to consolidate the results.
