About the department

The Department of Pediatric Surgery and Urology at the Children's Hospital Amsterdamer Cologne offers the widest range of surgical interventions for children, except for heart surgery. The department's team of surgeons excellently performs operations for congenital diseases and malformations in newborns and premature babies, genitourinary malformations, foot and hand malformations, benign and malignant tumors, fractures, and general diseases in children, including hernia, appendicitis, and gastroesophageal reflux disease. The department also provides medical care to young patients with severe burns. With 80 beds, the department is one of the largest Pediatric Surgery Centers in Germany. The department's specialists perform more than 5,500 surgical interventions every year. In most cases, treatment is provided using sparing minimally invasive techniques. The department's doctors and nursing staff get along well with children, surround them with care, and strive to establish a trusting relationship. In addition, the department has play areas, and children can distract from the therapeutic process during their free time. The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Dr. h.c. Thomas Boemers.

The department's specialists have unique experience and are highly competent in the treatment of pathologies of the urinary system, such as kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, and male genitalia. Congenital pathologies such as cryptorchidism, hypospadias, vesicoureteral reflux, and varicocele, as well as functional disorders, including voiding dysfunction, are treated here. During diagnostics and treatment, the department cooperates closely with other departments at the hospital, including physicians specializing in pediatric and adolescent medicine and pediatric radiology. A special focus in the field of pediatric urology is on urinary incontinence therapy. A surgical intervention is most often required to repair congenital malformations of the reproductive system in boys. As a rule, operations for cryptorchidism, hypospadias, varicocele, and other malformations are performed using minimally invasive techniques on an outpatient basis.

The department's surgeons have unique competence in the treatment of complex congenital pathologies, including bladder exstrophy, anal atresia, cloacal malformations, cloacal exstrophy, etc. The department's doctors admit children not only from all over Germany but also from abroad. In addition, children with urethral or genital malformations, as well as malformations of the external genitalia, are treated here. Whenever possible, minimally invasive interventions are performed. Recovery after such operations is fast, and the child experiences almost no pain in the postoperative period.

The medical facility is one of the few in all of Europe where surgeons have accumulated impressive experience repairing congenital and acquired hand and foot malformations in children. The surgeons regularly treat young patients with polydactyly, syndactyly, symbrachydactyly, macrodactyly, clinodactyly, camptodactyly, clubfoot, pes cavus, and pes equinus. In most cases, surgery is required to repair the above-mentioned malformations. The department's specialists prefer sparing microsurgical techniques, which ensure excellent therapeutic and aesthetic results.

  • Surgical treatment of abdominal diseases, including surgical repair of malformations in children
