About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Facial Plastic Surgery at the Catholic Clinic Koblenz-Montabaur offers the full range of medical services in the areas of its specialization. The primary focuses of the department's work include the diagnostics and treatment of hearing loss, diseases of the external, middle, and inner ear, and pathologies of the nose, paranasal sinuses, and skull base. The department includes a specialized Head and Neck Cancer Center, certified in accordance with the requirements of the German Society for Haematology and Medical Oncology (DGHO). A special area of clinical practice at the medical facility is cochlear implantation, which is indicated for patients with complex forms of hearing loss. The department also performs interventions for the implantation of partially and fully implantable hearing aids. The department admits not only adults but also young patients with otolaryngologic diseases. The department's doctors have effective conservative and surgical techniques in their arsenal. The health of patients is in the safe hands of a competent team of doctors, consisting of otolaryngologists, audiologists, pediatric audiologists, and speech therapists. The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Jan Maurer.
The department demonstrates excellent results in cochlear implantation, which is carried out at a specialized center. Cochlear implantation is an innovative treatment for adults and young patients with severe sensorineural hearing loss. The essence of the minimally invasive intervention is the implantation of a special electronic device (a cochlear implant), consisting of an internal and external part. The operation is performed under general anesthesia and lasts about 2 hours. Following the operation, the department's patients undergo rehabilitation, including setting up the device and adapting its speech processor so that a person can hear sounds and distinguish them. Rehabilitation is carried out on an outpatient basis.
The department also successfully performs surgical interventions to improve hearing, such as stapedoplasty and tympanoplasty. The first version of the operation involves the replacement of the stapes with a prosthesis using microsurgical techniques, which allows for the restoration of hearing in a patient with otosclerosis. Tympanoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to repair a damaged eardrum. The intervention is performed under general anesthesia; a surgical approach is provided through the external auditory meatus using a special microscope or through a small skin incision in the postauricular area.
An integral part of the work of the department's otolaryngologists is the treatment of head and neck tumors. For this purpose, a certified center operates here, which is certified by the German Society for Haematology and Medical Oncology (DGHO). Patients are treated by experienced doctors who have saved thousands of lives. Interdisciplinary tumor boards are regularly held here to develop an optimal treatment regimen, in which otolaryngologists, oncologists, radiation therapists, radiologists, and other experts take part. Therapy is selected individually. As a rule, the treatment is based on tumor resection surgery. Minimally invasive techniques are preferred whenever possible. After extensive resections,the department's patients are offered reconstructive plastic surgery. In many cases, the treatment process is quite complicated, so patients receive competent psychological care.
It should be noted that the use of advanced equipment, including endoscopes, microscopes, laser systems, intraoperative neuromonitoring devices, and intraoperative navigation systems, contributes to the outstanding success of surgical treatment. All these devices allow doctors to provide patients with the most sparing and safe surgical treatment.
