The Department of Paediatric and Adolescent Surgery is the largest university unit in this discipline in Austria.
Our range of treatments includes emergency care for all acute symptoms, neonatal surgery, pediatric traumatology, pediatric urology and abdominal and thoracic surgical procedures for patients up to eighteen years of age.
The department is divided into teams of outstanding specialists who are active in national and international networks. Our goal is to guarantee that all families have access to pediatric surgery that is as gentle as possible, safe treatment pathways and a child-friendly environment.
We seek answers to "tomorrow's questions" today. As a department, we learn, teach and conduct research every day so we can identify and shape the "therapy of the future" in good time.
"Children have entirely different needs than adults! That is why they deserve child-friendly specialists with expertise and empathy when surgical treatment is required. We want to find the best therapy for every child of every age, today and in the future!"
Holger Till, Head of Department
