About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Otolaryngology at the University Hospital Bonn provides the diagnostics and treatment of all head and neck diseases. It offers the whole range of surgical treatment of otolaryngological disorders, ranging from the removal of tonsils to complex skull base surgery and cochlear implantation. Special attention is paid to cancer and reconstructive surgery. There is maintained close interdisciplinary cooperation, namely the department is part of the Center for Integrated Oncology (CIO) Cologne/Bonn. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Friedrich Bootz.
The department has a modern Diagnostic Center that offers patients all the capabilities of diagnosing the sensory organs. In addition to the standard methods of hearing check-up, the department routinely applies such techniques as differentiated testing of touch and taste, functional testing of the facial nerve, brainstem audiometry (ABR, auditory brainstem response audiometry), otoacoustic emission testing (OAE). Of particular importance is pediatric audiometry for the diagnostics of hearing impairment in infancy, including appropriate hearing rehabilitation with the help of hearing aids. For vestibular assessment, the department uses modern methods of videonystagmography and electronystagmography, as well as caloric testing of the vestibular system. A modern ultrasound machine provides the accurate diagnostics of neck and salivary gland diseases.
The department ranks among the leaders of ENT surgery in Germany. The surgeons have a broad arsenal of the very latest medical technologies. These include, for example, modern surgical microscopes, endoscopes with cameras and high-resolution screens, intraoperative neuromonitoring devices, etc. The surgical procedures on the middle ear, including cochlear implantation, are performed using modern operating microscopes. A large number of laryngeal interventions are performed using a laser. The highest accuracy in the paranasal sinus and skull base surgery is achieved through the use of intraoperative navigation, etc.
Priority is given to surgical oncology and reconstructive surgery. The most common cancers faced by the surgeons of the department include malignant neoplasms of the larynx, as well as ear tumors and other head and neck tumors. Thanks to close cooperation with other Cancer Centers, the doctors are able to develop optimal integrated treatment programs. The decision on the use of primary and adjuvant therapy are made with the participation of radiation therapists, oncologists, and therapists.
The service range is complemented by outpatient care in such fields as allergology, follow-up care after cancer treatment, plastic surgery, cochlear implantation, somnology/ronchopathy, etc.

- Diagnostics of diseases of the ear, throat, nose

About hospital
According to the authoritative Focus magazine, the University Hospital Bonn ranks among the top ten medical facilities in Germany!
The hospital was opened on January 1, 2001, although in fact it inherits the medical facility, which operated at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Bonn. The hospital in Germany combines all the highest standards of modern university medicine of the international level. A highly competent team of experienced physicians, which consists of more than 8,000 employees from various fields, takes care of the patients’ health.
The hospital has 32 specialized departments and 23 institutes, which implement the highest standards of treatment in Germany. On their basis, in addition to the successful clinical activities, the productive research and training of young specialists are carried out. Also, the hospital has 10 intensive care units and more than 30 cutting-edge operating rooms. They are equipped with the advanced surgical, navigation and monitoring systems, which provide sparing and the most effective surgical treatment. The total number of places for hospitalization is 1,250 beds.

For example, in 2007, the Comprehensive Cancer Center of the hospital became one of the four winners at the nationwide competition among Cancer Centers of Excellence. The research focuses primarily on the clinical genetics and genetic epidemiology, neurology, immunology and infectiology, hepatology and gastroenterology, and diseases of the cardiovascular system. The research findings contribute to the development of new therapeutic methods and overall improvement of treatment in Germany.
The main value for all employees of the hospital in Germany is human health, his individual needs and wishes, therefore, despite the high-tech infrastructure, the focus remains on the human attitude and respect for each patient.
