The Department of Adult and Pediatric Otolaryngology at the University Hospital of Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich offers the full range of services in this medical field. The priority focuses of the department's clinical practice include the treatment of hearing impairment and hearing loss, diseases of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, and skull base, as well as speech, voice, and swallowing disorders, and dizziness. The team of ENT doctors at the medical facility successfully copes with the treatment of malignant head and neck neoplasms. In cooperation with plastic surgeons, the department performs several types of facial plastic surgery, including rhinoplasty, otoplasty, blepharoplasty, scar revision, wrinkle treatment with Botox, and autologous adipose tissue injections. Thanks to outstanding specialists in their field and state-of-the-art medical equipment, the department is one of the leading medical facilities of this kind in Germany. The department has 102 beds and two large outpatient clinics. All diagnostic and therapeutic measures meet current national and international standards. Surgical interventions are performed using laparoscopic, endoscopic, and microsurgical techniques. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Martin Canis.
The department successfully conducts diagnostics and treatment of hearing, speech, voice, and swallowing disorders in adults and children. A highly specialized AUDIOMUC Center was created here for this purpose. The specialists at the center carry out ENT examinations to detect pathological changes, after which they prescribe the most effective treatment. Drug therapy is preferred whenever possible, while surgery is the last-line treatment. A special focus of the AUDIOMUC medical team is regular check-ups and monitoring of patients with previously implanted hearing aids and cochlear implants. The specialists also perform cochlear implantation for adults and children. Today, cochlear implantation is a true medical breakthrough that allows for the treatment of the most complex forms of hearing loss, including unilateral hearing loss.
An integral part of the work of the department's ENT doctors is the treatment of nose and paranasal sinus pathologies. Patients with difficulty nasal breathing often seek medical help from the department. The reason for this may be enlarged turbinates, for example, due to an inflammatory process. The diagnostic stage involves endoscopic procedures and rhinomanometry. Radiofrequency procedures or laser interventions can be performed (on an outpatient basis) to eliminate the pathology. Difficulty nasal breathing can also be caused by a deviated septum. In this case, the department's specialists perform a septoplasty (with minimally invasive techniques), which makes it possible to eliminate not only breathing problems but also some aesthetic defects.
The medical facility also provides the full range of diagnostics and treatment for malignant head and neck tumors: cancer of the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, and paranasal sinuses, as well as malignant neoplasms of the skin of the head and neck and malignant tumors of the salivary glands. Patients with head and neck cancers are treated in cooperation with the specialists from the Comprehensive Cancer Center Munich and the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. To achieve a good therapeutic result, surgical resection of the malignant tumor is usually required. The team of the department's doctors works in state-of-the-art operating rooms adapted for operations of any complexity. They have technical options for microsurgical, laser, and robot-assisted interventions. The primary goal of doctors is to completely remove the tumor, but it is also important to ensure a satisfactory aesthetic result, and therefore, if necessary, reconstructive plastic surgery may be performed. It should be noted that small head and neck tumors in the early stages are removed mainly with the help of laser techniques. Cancer treatment also often includes chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy, as well as other types of conservative therapy.
