About the department

The Department of Adult and Pediatric General, Abdominal Surgery at the Hospital Neuwerk Moenchengladbach offers the full range of surgical treatment in its areas of specialization. The key attention is paid to the treatment of the abdominal diseases with the focus on cancer and minimally invasive surgery. All surgical interventions are performed in the progressive operating rooms in compliance with the highest standards. The department is certified as the Competence Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery, the Competence Center for Bariatric Surgery, and is also the specialized Center for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.

The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Frank Granderath. He has earned the reputation as a highly skilled specialist in the treatment of benign and malignant diseases of the upper gastrointestinal tract, particularly, esophageal and stomach diseases. In 2018, the doctor was ranked among the top German surgeons specializing in hernia repair (according to the Focus magazine).

The department specializes in the treatment of the abdominal cancers. The therapeutic process is based on an interdisciplinary approach. The department regularly holds tumor boards with the participation of therapists, specialists in radiation therapy and chemotherapy, oncologists, and surgeons. Each patient receives an individual treatment regimen and further monitoring.

In most cases, the department's surgeons use minimally invasive techniques. Such operations are carried out using small probes, which are inserted into the abdominal cavity through small incisions along with the camera. To carry out this approach, the department is equipped with the cutting-edge equipment and a special operating room with high-resolution cameras. The benefits of minimally invasive surgery are reduced postoperative pain, rapid recovery, and shorter duration of hospital stay. The department's specialists perform cholecystectomy, as well as inguinal, umbilical and incisional hernia repair procedures only using minimally invasive techniques. Thanks to the department's particular experience, the operations on the esophagus, stomach, as well as ob the liver, spleen and adrenal glands can also be performed endoscopically. In some cases, such operations can also be possible for malignant colorectal diseases. In addition, the department's specialists offer another technique, in which the operation can be performed through an incision in the navel area. This technique has been used since 2008, mainly for gallbladder interventions.

The department's surgical service range includes:

  • General surgery
    • Surgery to treat inguinal, umbilical and incisional hernias in adults and children
    • Soft tissue surgery
    • Gallbladder removal
    • Surgery to treat varicose veins
