About the department

The Department of General, Abdominal and Minimally Invasive Surgery at the HELIOS Clinic Krefeld offers the full range of services in these medical fields. The department specializes in the surgical treatment of abdominal organs: esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine, liver, pancreas, gallbladder and bile ducts, thyroid gland. Here are used only proven and sparing surgical treatment methods, which guarantee a rapid recovery of patients. The department is headed by PD Dr. med. Christoph Wullstein.

The specialists of the department have many years of experience and expertise in performing minimally invasive interventions ("keyhole surgery") that help the patient avoid severe pain, prolonged hospitalization, the risk of infection and loss of blood.

The department shows excellent results in the treatment of oncological diseases. It performs successful operations to treat esophageal, stomach, intestinal, liver and pancreatic cancer. The department holds weekly tumor boards, during which gastroenterologists, radiologists, oncologists and radiation therapists jointly discuss each case and develop an optimal treatment plan.

In addition, the department specializes in the diagnostics and treatment of proctologic diseases (hemorrhoids, anal fissures, fecal incontinence, etc.). After a comprehensive diagnosis, the doctor prescribes the necessary course of therapy. Treatment can be both conservative and surgical.

A separate focus of the department is surgical treatment of the endocrine organs. There are performed many operations on the thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands and pancreas.

The department’s scope of tasks also includes the treatment of obesity. Should conservative obesity treatment not yield positive results, the doctors of the department offer safe operations that will help to cope with the problem, for example, sleeve gastroplasty, gastric bypass surgery and others. The operation is preceded by a special individual consultation, during which the doctor informs about the possibility of performing certain interventions and the risks that they may entail.
