About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Otolaryngology at the University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf offers all the possibilities of modern medicine for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the ear, throat, and nose in patients of all ages, including children. Surgical treatment of head and neck tumors with special emphasis on salivary gland tumors, skull base tumors, and head and neck skin cancer occupies an important place in the daily work of the medical facility. The department's specialists perform over 100 surgical resections of salivary gland tumors annually, earning the medical institution a reputation as one of the most competent in this field in the country. The department is certified by the German Cancer Society (DKG) and the German Cancer Aid Foundation (Deutsche Krebshilfe) as a leading Head and Neck Cancer Center in Germany. The department successfully treats middle and inner ear pathologies, performing more than 700 such surgeries annually, including cochlear implantation followed by comprehensive hearing and speech rehabilitation. In addition, more than 800 surgical procedures are performed annually for pathologies of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, and skull base. The surgical options are complemented by a wide range of aesthetic facial plastic surgery. Every year, the department treats over 13,000 patients, many of whom come from abroad. The physicians work in accordance with the recommendations of the German Society of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, Head and Neck Surgery (DGHNO-KHC) and adhere to the quality standards of the ClarCert certification system. The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Christian Betz.
The department is part of the Head and Neck Cancer Center where otolaryngologists, oncologists, radiologists, and radiation therapists work hand in hand for the benefit of the patient. Each clinical case is reviewed by a team of physicians, allowing the most effective treatment regimen to be developed based on the patient's individual needs. If a head or neck tumor is detected, the first-line treatment is its surgical resection. In most cases, surgery is followed by radiation therapy and/or drug therapy (chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy). If surgery is contraindicated due to high surgical risks, the physicians of the department offer an alternative treatment method called radiochemotherapy. The department's team of otolaryngologists also provides innovative treatment of throat and oral malignancies using robotic surgical techniques: the manipulator arms of the da Vinci robotic system have unique maneuverability that allows complex surgical manipulations to be performed in hard-to-reach areas. The department is one of the first centers in Germany to practice da Vinci robotic surgery for the removal of throat and oral tumors, so the medical facility is virtually unparalleled in the country in this medical field.
The department's team of doctors has extensive experience in cochlear implantation, which is currently the only effective treatment method for bilateral sensorineural hearing loss and severe hearing loss where hearing aids do not provide the desired result. A cochlear implant replaces the function of the sensory cells of the inner ear. The device consists of an internal and external part. The internal part is implanted under the patient's skin during surgery, while the external part with a processor is placed on the patient's ear and/or head. The cochlear implant has an unlimited lifespan, so there is no need to replace the device after a certain period of time. Cochlear implant surgery is the first step in the treatment of bilateral severe sensorineural hearing loss and is followed by auditory and speech rehabilitation, a set of measures designed to develop the ability to hear and recognize sounds and speech with the help of a cochlear implant. Auditory and speech rehabilitation for adults includes adjustment of the cochlear implant processor and sessions with a specialist in the development of auditory perception. During rehabilitation of children after cochlear implantation, doctors also perform activities to develop speech, understand other people's speech, and teach parents how to develop the child's hearing and speech at home.
The range of medical services provided by the department is supplemented by the treatment of nasal and paranasal sinus diseases. The specialists in the department most often treat rhinitis, sinusitis, traumatic nasal injuries, nasal breathing disorders caused by deviated septum, and nasal polyps. Drug therapy is the treatment of choice whenever possible. Surgical procedures are performed when clinically indicated. All operations on the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses are performed in the medical facility using minimally traumatic endoscopic techniques, often on an outpatient basis. The otolaryngologists of the department have additional qualifications in the field of facial plastic surgery, so they also successfully perform rhinoplasty, a plastic surgery to reshape the nose.
The department is one of the leading medical institutions in Germany for the treatment of salivary gland diseases. The department provides medical care for patients with sialadenitis (inflammatory lesion of the salivary glands), salivary stones, and benign and malignant salivary gland tumors. The department has state-of-the-art equipment for sialendoscopy, a highly accurate diagnostic procedure to assess the condition and function of the salivary glands. If necessary, therapeutic manipulations can be performed during the endoscopic examination, such as stone removal or dilatation of salivary duct stenosis.

- Diagnostics and treatment of head and neck tumors
