With the help of the Da Vinci robotic surgical unit, the clinic performs the following operations:
The latest Da Vinci Xi surgical robot is used in Helios Krefeld. This makes it possible to perform sparing operations on elderly patients who have been denied conventional operations.
The interdisciplinary pediatric oncology center certified by the German Cancer Society (DKG) provides complex treatment of the following diseases:

Bone marrow and stem cell transplantation is widely used. In severe cases, innovative and experimental treatment methods are used by oncologists.

Treatment of each type of cancer is carried out in certified highly specialized departments. For all types of cancer there are the following procedures:
Also, foreign patients have access to all the latest types of cancer therapy and drugs in the framework of clinical trials.
Many heart surgeries that are successfully performed by the center’s cardiac surgeons are the latest modifications of existing interventions. These innovative interventions minimize operational risks for patients and provide a shorter rehabilitation period.
In coronary artery bypass grafting, cardiac surgeons use the internal mammary and radial arteries, which provides the best long-term results. During the operation, a modern, more gentle heart-lung machine (HLM) is used. In many patients, surgeries are performed on the beating heart (OPCAB) using myocardial stabilization devices. MIDCAB (minimally invasive coronary artery bypass) procedure through a 5 cm incision is carried out.
Since 2010, the center’s cardiac surgeons have been performing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The success rate of the procedure, according to Helios Krefeld, is 99%.
The center’s leading cardiac surgeon, Associate Professor Dr. Jaroslav Benedik, successfully performs the innovative Ozaki operation, which is available only in a few cardiac surgery centers in the world. The Ozaki operation is an innovative method for reconstructing the aortic valve using your own tissue from the pericardium (the outer lining of the heart). This technique for correcting aortic valve disease provides a more natural and reliable result than the use of an artificial valve. The Ozaki operation is especially suitable for young and middle-aged patients, as it has a number of advantages:
In addition, the most complicated Ross operation, in which the patient’s own valve of the pulmonary artery is installed in place of the aortic valve, and the donor valve takes the place of the pulmonary valve, is carried out in the center. Such an operation is usually performed for lesions of the aortic valve in patients under 55 years of age, in women planning a pregnancy, in children and adolescents. At Helios Krefeld, the Ross operation is performed by cardiac surgeons who have performed more than 500 of these interventions with a success rate of about 100%.
At Helios Hospital Krefeld, spinal surgery is performed by the center’s leading spinal surgeon, of the national (Master’s certificate from the German Spine Society (DWG)) and international level, Prof. Dr. Michael Stoffel. He specializes in minimally invasive surgery for degenerative diseases (herniated discs, stenoses), tumors, metastases, anomalies in the development of the spinal cord and spine, and revision (repeated) operations for these pathologies.
