Visceral surgery abdomen Hamburg

Visceral surgery

Visceral surgery - also abdominal surgery and abdominal surgery - is the surgical treatment of the abdominal organs. The expertise of gastroenterology for diagnostics and treatment is also frequently required, as is practiced in our interdisciplinary work.

Visceral surgery in our Hamburg practice includes not only the surgical treatment of the digestive tract including the oesophagus, stomach, small and large intestine, rectum, liver and pancreas. Ursula Strate, MD, is a member of the German Society for Visceral Surgery. Publication by Dr. Strate on the topic: Reflux disease and surgery (PDF document)
