Department of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology
The Department of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology provides the full range of medical services in the areas of its specialization. The department's doctors diagnose and treat solid malignant tumors and benign and malignant pathologies of the hematopoietic system. Pediatric oncologists and hematologists focus on young patients with gliomas, glioblastomas, medulloblastomas, Ewing's sarcomas, osteosarcomas, retinoblastomas, leukemias, and lymphomas. The department's medical team admits children and adolescents up to the age of 18. Many diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, making the treatment process easier for the child. The medical care in the department meets the requirements of the Society for Pediatric Oncology and Hematology (GPOH). A treatment regimen for each child is developed during an interdisciplinary tumor board, and the doctors strive to prescribe the most effective and sparing therapy. The most commonly used treatment method in the department is chemotherapy. Surgical interventions for the resection of solid malignant tumors are performed by highly specialized pediatric surgeons. Children and their parents receive psychological support throughout the entire treatment process.
