About the Department of Pediatric Surgery at University Hospital Oldenburg

The Department of Pediatric Surgery at the University Hospital Oldenburg offers the full range of services in this focus. The department has been operating since May 1998, and therefore has many years of experience and is proud of the successful treatment results. The department treats children of any age, ranging from premature babies weighing 500 grams, young children and to adolescents. The surgical treatment is provided in modern operating rooms equipped with all the necessary medical technologies. The department is headed by Dr. med. Jose Morcate. 

The main goal of the department is to provide optimal medical care and restore the child’s health. Much attention is paid to interdisciplinary cooperation with other departments of the hospital, for example, with the Departments of Pediatric Oncology, Neonatology, Pediatric Gastroenterology, Pulmonology, Cardiology, etc. Many surgical interventions are performed using a minimally invasive method ("keyhole surgery"), which facilitates rapid recovery and minimal pain. 

Of particular interest is the treatment of oncological diseases, in particular, tumors of the liver, kidneys, adrenal glands, sympathetic trunk, lymph nodes, muscles, as well as the removal lung and liver metastases. Each clinical case is discussed at an interdisciplinary consultation with specialists from the Department of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology, after which an individual treatment plan is developed.

  • Surgical treatment of congenital head and neck malformations (for example, lateral and medial cysts, neck fistulas)
