About the department
According to the Focus magazine, the Department of Adult and Pediatric Urology at the Charite University Hospital Berlin ranks among the top German medical facilities specializing in prostate cancer treatment!
The department offers all types of modern diagnostic and therapeutic services for patients with urologic diseases. Of particular interest is the treatment of urogenital tumors in men and urogynecological diseases. The department also specializes in kidney transplantation, which is carried out within the specialized center. This center is the largest in Germany and Europe and annually demonstrates high treatment success rates. In addition, the department's competence covers the treatment of urological problems in boys of all age groups.
The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Thorsten Schlomm. The doctor enjoys a reputation as a highly competent expert in minimally invasive and da Vinci robot-assisted surgery for prostate cancer. For more than 15 years of his clinical practice, he has performed more than 3,000 of the above-mentioned surgical procedures. It is very important for the doctor not only to perform the operation as efficiently as possible but also to maintain potency. In addition to successful clinical activities, Prof. Thorsten Schlomm works on scientific publications (he has almost 350 of them) and books and is a member of the German, European, and American Societies of Urology.
The department's doctors have a perfect command of all conservative and surgical treatment methods of urological cancer pathologies, benign prostatic hyperplasia, penile and testicular diseases, erectile dysfunction, urinary incontinence in men and women, hormonal disorders and infertility in men. In the field of pediatric urology, the department treats all malformations of the urogenital system in boys, for example, phimosis, cryptorchidism, etc.
It is worth noting that the department has a reputation of the leading Laparoscopic Urological Center. A large number of operations are performed using laparoscopic techniques (for example, nephrectomy, pyeloplasty, ureteral interventions, and others). However, some clinical cases require classic open surgeries and the department's surgeon can also perform them very well. In addition, the department's technical base and the professionalism of doctors allow them to achieve outstanding results even in particularly complex cases.
