University Hospital provides specialised Retroperitoneum Surgery with a focus on precise disease removal, preservation of critical anatomical structures, advanced surgical planning, and individualized postoperative care. Established in 1842, the SAC accredited hospital is located in Basel, Switzerland and operates 773 beds, with modern surgical oncology, urology, vascular surgery, diagnostic imaging, minimally invasive, and critical-care infrastructure.
Retroperitoneum Surgery can provide an important treatment option for appropriately selected patients with localized or complex diseases affecting the retroperitoneal space. Treatment planning considers the underlying diagnosis, size and location of the lesion, involvement of surrounding organs or blood vessels, previous abdominal surgery, and overall health. A multidisciplinary assessment helps determine whether surgery is appropriate and whether open, laparoscopic, or robotic-assisted techniques may be suitable for the individual patient.
At Paracelsus Clinic, Retroperitoneum Surgery is performed using specialized retroperitoneal and abdominal surgical techniques with comprehensive diagnostic and imaging assessment. Established in 1953, this accredited hospital in Lustmuhle, Switzerland has 95 beds and offers advanced oncology, urology, gastrointestinal, vascular, and minimally invasive surgical services.
Retroperitoneum Surgery may be considered for patients with tumors or other conditions involving structures located behind the abdominal cavity. Before treatment, CT, MRI, PET imaging, biopsy, blood tests, and other investigations may be used to characterize the disease and assess its relationship with nearby organs and major blood vessels. The procedure may involve removal of a localized mass or more extensive resection of involved tissues when necessary.
