The Division of General Otorhinolaryngology, which is well-known beyond the region, offers our patients the complete range of diagnostics services and holistic, conservative and surgical treatments.
Our division is a national and international reference center in conservative and surgical treatment of diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses. For several decades, it has played a pioneering role thanks to the Messerklinger-Stammberger approach to functional endoscopic sinus surgery that was established here. This approach led to the development of a certified skull base surgery center that has provided our patients with optimal interdisciplinary care for years.
The division also provides oncological care with state-of-the-art surgical and conservative therapeutic procedures. The division's broad range of other services includes microscopic middle and inner ear surgery, implants, pediatric otorhinolaryngology and therapy for sleep-related breathing disorders.
To facilitate state-of-the-art therapy, our division makes research and teaching two of its top priorities and participates in a great number of national and international cooperations. In addition, individual staff members hold key positions in professional societies.
"Our goal is holistic care for patients at the highest academic level according to the latest findings from research and teaching."
Dietmar Thurnher, , Head of Division
