About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Urology at the University Hospital Ulm provides high-precision diagnostic examinations and effective treatment for diseases of the genitourinary system and reproductive system in men and boys. Of particular interest is drug therapy and surgical treatment of prostate, bladder, kidney, testicular, and penile cancers. The department is part of the Comprehensive Cancer Center Ulm (CCCU). For the patient, this means that their clinical case is studied by a multidisciplinary tumor board, which determines the optimal treatment tactics. The department is also certified by the German Cancer Society (DKG), so all therapeutic procedures meet strict national and international standards. The department's team of urologists also has unique clinical experience in the minimally invasive treatment of kidney stone disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia, neuro-urological dysfunction, and all urologic diseases in children. During the surgical treatment, the specialists at the medical facility successfully use minimally traumatic surgical techniques. They perform endoscopic, laser, minimally invasive, and robot-assisted surgery using the innovative Da Vinci system. The department treats about 3,000 inpatients and 9,000 outpatients with clinical cases of varying complexity annually. The number of surgical procedures performed and treatment outcomes are regularly published by the authorized commission of the Initiative Quality in Medicine (IQM).
The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Christian Bolenz. The doctor has over 18 years of clinical experience, during which he has saved thousands of patients with urologic pathologies of varying severity. For three years, the professor worked as the President of the Southwest German Society for Urology, and today he is a Member of this society as well as a Member of the German, European, and American Societies of Urology. Dr. med. Bolenz is actively involved in scientific publications (more than 220 to date). He also lectures and speaks at national and international conferences.
The department enjoys a reputation as one of the best Prostate Cancer Centers in Germany, which is confirmed by the prestigious certification from the German Cancer Society (DKG) in this field. Prostate cancer is the most common and life-threatening oncological condition among men. The department's specialists admit more than 500 patients with this diagnosis every year. As a rule, the first-line treatment for confirmed prostate cancer is surgical tumor resection or radical prostatectomy (the surgical removal of the prostate gland along with its capsule and seminal vesicles). The department's surgeons prefer operations using the Da Vinci surgical system, if possible. Such interventions are characterized by the highest precision and minimal trauma rate. And what is more, the risks of erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence (the most severe and common complications of prostate cancer surgery) are practically equal to zero. The department's team of urologists has performed more than 600 interventions using the Da Vinci surgical system, which confirms their impressive experience in this field. Patients with prostate cancer are treated in cooperation with doctors from related medical specialties using effective systemic therapy methods such as hormone therapy, targeted therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Nuclear medicine specialists, together with urologists, also offer innovative radionuclide Lutetium-177 PSMA therapy.
An integral part of the department's clinical practice is medical care for patients with kidney cancer. This cancer is more prevalent in men than in women. As of today, the department's urologists have highly informative imaging diagnostic methods (ultrasound, CT, and MRI), thanks to which kidney malignancies are detected in the early stages when the patient has a high chance of full recovery. The treatment is based on resection of the neoplasm or removal of the affected kidney. The department's specialists prefer organ-preserving surgery, so a large number of interventions performed in the department allow the doctors to save the affected organ. If clinically indicated, surgeons use minimally invasive and robot-assisted techniques (the Da Vinci surgical system), thanks to which patients recover extremely quickly after surgery. The department also uses radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of small tumors (the procedure is performed in cooperation with interventional radiologists). In advanced stages of kidney cancer, surgery is complemented by conservative methods, including molecularly targeted drugs, immune checkpoint inhibitors (immunotherapy), etc. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy for kidney cancer are rarely used due to their low effectiveness against this type of cancer.
Another important focus of the department's urologists is the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. This pathology significantly increases the size of the organ. The pathological process is accompanied by many unpleasant symptoms, including urinary disorders, hematuria (the presence of blood in the urine), and recurrent urinary tract infections. The treatment regimen depends on the severity of the symptoms. It is determined based on the results of the IPSS questionnaire (International Prostate Symptom Score), clinical examination, and assessment of the degree of enlargement of the organ, palpation of the prostate, and transrectal ultrasound. The department's doctors brilliantly perform endoscopic treatment of prostate adenoma using bipolar and monopolar transurethral resection under video control, thulium laser enucleation, and holmium laser enucleation. The innovative Rezum procedure (water vapor ablation) is also available here. The optimal treatment is determined on an individual basis.
In the field of pediatric urology, the department offers effective treatment for congenital and acquired diseases, developmental disorders, and functional genitourinary disorders in newborns, young children, and adolescents. The specialists in pediatric nephrology and surgery may be engaged in the therapeutic process if required. The team of pediatric urologists conducts conservative and surgical treatment of hypospadias, phimosis, varicocele, hydrocele, cryptorchidism, vesicoureteral reflux, urinary incontinence, and other pathologies. If a child requires surgery, the doctors always aim to perform the intervention using endoscopic or minimally invasive techniques.

- Diagnostics and treatment of malignant urologic diseases
- Diagnostics and treatment of prostate cancer
