Treatment options include traditional insulin therapy with a syringe or an insulin pump. There is the possibility of continuous glucose measurement.

The most common pediatric blood diseases are anemias (for example, in iron or vitamin B12 deficiency, hemolytic anemias, hemoglobinopathies, such as thalassemia and sickle cell anemia), thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, etc.

In addition, the department provides the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases, such as urinary tract infections, urination disorders, kidney malformations, polycystic kidney disease, kidney dysfunction, kidney inflammations, kidney failure, high blood pressure due to kidney dysfunction, urinary incontinence, congenital and acquired nephropathies.
