Specialist in Surgery Dr. Klaus EMMANUEL at the University Hospital Salzburg -

At your side. At any time.

In my private practice I try to treat people individually, discreetly and holistically.

As an experienced abdominal surgeon and specialist in complex tumor diseases, I can point to thousands of successful operations.

My treatment philosophy

Diagnosis of cancer? We will find a way together.

As a full professor and head of the Salzburg University Hospital for General, Visceral and Thoracic Surgery, I have specialised in the treatment of difficult cancers with a focus on the oesophagus and stomach in my elective surgery.

I follow a customised and individual treatment approach, which means that I go through the decision-making process together with my patients: With a team specialised in the diagnosis of cancer, we take our time and develop a concept that is well tolerated, shows the best possible efficacy and is optimally suited to the personality. All this with the most modern techniques and the most innovative treatment procedures.

My ordination

Competence Center for Thoracic and Visceral Surgery

Operations on the oesophagus and stomach place the most complex demands on an interdisciplinary team and require concepts at the most innovative level of knowledge. This is what prompted me to complete my training at the Klinikum rechts der Isar, one of the world's most renowned centres for oesophageal and gastric surgery, under the direction of Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. mult. Jörg Rüdiger Siewert to complete my training.

In the course of my career, I have been able to acquire an enormous amount of practical knowledge in surgery and today I successfully perform numerous of these operations per year at the University Hospital Salzburg using the most modern minimally invasive or robotic techniques.

My specialisation

Treatment of difficult forms of cancer

Oesophagus

We distinguish between three types of oesophageal cancer, all of which manifest themselves differently. The earlier a diagnosis is made, the higher the chances of being able to cure the cancer.

Stomach

Stomach cancer is one of the malignant diseases of the upper digestive tract. With our interdisciplinary team, we achieve good healing successes.

Liver

Liver cancer is characterised by symptoms that are difficult to recognise. Most liver metastases that we encounter are daughter tumours.

Pancreas

At first, pancreatic tumours hardly cause any symptoms. New, modern procedures help detect them at an early stage.

Large intestine/colon

Our Center for Surgery in Salzburg is specially adapted to the particularities of colorectal cancer. We ensure a painless diagnosis and individual treatment.

Rectum

In the treatment of rectal cancer, we specialise in using the latest technology to preserve continence and avoid an artificial outlet.

Metastatic surgery

We offer individual therapies through an interdisciplinary tumour board and develop a custom-fit treatment concept with our specialised team.

Peritoneal carcinomatosis (HIPEC/PIPAC)

If a carcinoma has invaded the peritoneum, the innovative HIPEC/PIPAC therapies can be used, which can complement systemic drug tumor therapy using liquid/AEROSOL.

Adrenal gland

We specialise in the diagnosis, clarification and minimally invasive treatment of benign and malignant adrenal tumours.
