About the department
The Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine at the University Hospital of Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich offers the full range of diagnostics and treatment for various diseases in newborns, children, and adolescents. The priority focuses of the department's clinical activities include the treatment of diseases of the respiratory system, endocrine glands, infectious diseases, diseases of the digestive system, liver, kidneys, and rheumatic pathologies. The department's doctors have excellent qualifications and easily cope with even the most complex clinical cases. The specialists use modern diagnostic methods in their work to make an accurate diagnosis and effective conservative treatment methods. Pediatricians work in collaboration with pediatric surgeons, and therefore if a child needs surgery, he will receive medical care as soon as possible. About 50,000 young patients receive medical care both on an inpatient and outpatient basis in the department every year. The medical facility has a friendly and pleasant atmosphere in which children feel as comfortable as possible. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Christoph Klein.
A large number of patients who come to the department are children with gastrointestinal diseases such as gastritis, gastroenteritis, peptic ulcer, constipation, diarrhea, chronic cholecystitis, pancreatitis, and others. Pediatric gastroenterologists have excellent diagnostic options to detect the causes of gastrointestinal disorders. The specialists carry out laboratory tests, ultrasound scans, and functional diagnostics. With appropriate indications, young patients undergo endoscopic diagnostics, including colonoscopy, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, ileocolonoscopy, and video capsule endoscopy. Based on the results of comprehensive diagnostics, a child is prescribed an optimal treatment regimen. In most cases, doctors prescribe only modern drugs. The specialists also successfully perform endoscopic therapeutic procedures, such as vascular ligation and other types of hemostasis, or dilation to eliminate stenoses.
The department's pediatric endocrinologists treat hormonal imbalances caused by diseases of the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, adrenal glands, and gonads. Of particular interest is the provision of medical care to children with growth disorders (short stature and gigantism) and congenital metabolic disorders (phenylketonuria, galactosemia, maple syrup urine disease, MCAD deficiency, and LCHAD deficiency). Laboratory tests are usually sufficient to detect hormonal imbalances. As for treatment, it is mostly based on the correction of hormonal levels with the help of medications. In most cases, children undergo their treatment on an outpatient basis.
The department admits young patients with infectious diseases and their complications. Doctors have vast experience in providing medical care to children with tuberculosis, pneumonia, sepsis, urinary tract infections, fever syndromes, HIV, and others. Depending on the specific clinical case, young patients are prescribed antibiotics, antiviral drugs, interferon drugs, immunomodulators, antipyretic drugs, etc.
The department's therapeutic offer is complemented by the diagnostics and treatment of respiratory diseases in children. The team of the department's pediatric pulmonologists successfully cures patients with cystic fibrosis, interstitial lung disease, primary ciliary dyskinesia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The diagnostic stage involves laboratory tests, X-ray scans, lung diffusion capacity measurement, lung clearance index test, stress tests, spirometry, bronchoscopy, bronchoalveolar lavage, transbronchial biopsy, and other examinations. When the diagnosis is confirmed, an attending physician proceeds to develop a treatment regimen. A child receives only drug therapy whenever possible, and in complex cases, the specialists perform bronchoscopic interventional procedures.
The department's main clinical activities are as follows:
- Diagnostics and treatment of allergic reactions and bronchial asthma
- Diagnostics and treatment of congenital metabolic disorders
- Diagnostics and treatment of congenital malformations of the lungs and respiratory tract
- Diagnostics and treatment of muscle dysmorphia, skeletal diseases, and growth disorders
