Details of Work Experience and Post Graduate Training

 

During the last 10 years I’ve worked as a full time consultant in urology, paediatric urology, transplant urology, reconstructive urology, neuro-urology and female urology. This included working as a staff member at the University Hospitals Stellenbosch (South Africa), Leicester (UK) and Innsbruck (Austria) being involved in the whole spectrum of urology dealing with and treating patients both as out-patients and in-patients. My work also included student and registrar teaching and training. I was also involved in examining medical students and urology and surgery registrars. I love teaching and in Innsbruck I also lecture at the School of Nursing the subjects of pathology and general surgery. The main focus of my activities is operative urology in its whole spectrum.

 

Most of my initial energies went into the good practice of surgery. The basics in surgery I learnt from Don F. Du Toit, an extremely experienced surgeon from the Medical University Stellenbosch, who guided me well through my beginnings in “big” surgery. Gustav Witters- Vansteenkiste taught me to do renal transplantations after being on standby transplant call for a whole year in 1990. The good basis in conservative and invasive urology I was glad to receive from Martinus L.S. de Kock, Chris Heyns and Abrie Schmidt at the Tygerberg Hospital covering the whole spectrum of urology. Having surgical experience for over 20 years now, I believe that an operation can only be repeatedly successful if the indication to do surgery is correct. Surgery is invasive and its performance an art. To be good at surgery one needs a special love for humanity and detail to be able to first of all “do no further harm”.

 

As visiting guest urologist I had the privilege to train with Rudolf Hohenfellner in Mainz, Germany, Peter Alken in Mannheim, Germany, and also Mohamed Ghoneim and Hassan Abol- Enein in Mansoura, Egypt.

 

During this period I had additional training in paediatric urology (13 months full time with Marcus Riccabona in Linz, Austria) including a workshop with Alberto Peña (The 26th workshop: Surgical treatment of anorectal malformations, New York, USA, November 16-18,1998). I successfully completed the European College of Transplantation Course (Hesperis) in Madrid, Spain in November 1999. In Leicester, as well as at the Tygerberg Hospital (Medical University Stellenbosch) I was actively invloved in the renal transplant team being responsible for the vascular and peritoneal dialysis access surgery. Over a period of more than eight years I was involved in more than 200 kidney transplantations, having done 88 as the senior surgeon.

 

In Klagenfurt I learnt to do the perineal radical prostatectomy from Klaus Jeschke, and assisted in various laparoscopic procedures. The big regional hospital of Klagenfurt is one of the busiest urology centres in Austria.

 

Working with Helmut Madersbacher intensified my knowledge of neuro-urology tremendously. Having established a neuro-urology unit of quality well known all over the world, Madersbacher demonstrates the need for special units caring for patients with these challenging problems. In this unit I had the opportunity to treat and operate patients with very involving pathology, including patients after multiple previous surgeries.

 

Georg Bartsch has built up a urology department at the Medical University Innsbruck with an exceptional infrastructure. In this department as a staff member for four years my work concentrated on reconstructive urology, oncology, female urology, neuro-urology, pelvic surgery and urological traumatology. The presence of the uro-radiologist Ferdinand Frauscher during specialist out-patient clinics increased my understanding of urologic ultrasound examination tremendously. This resulted in my special interest in the dynamics human sphincter function. During this time I had the privilege to visit and learn from Don Skinner and John Stein at the USC/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Centre (Los Angeles) for a period of one month in 2001.

 

My surgical spectrum covers the whole field of open surgical urology, endourology and basic laparoscopy. In 1994 I attended a Laparoscopy Course at the European Surgical Institute (Ethicon®, Norderstedt, Germany: Laparoscopic Surgery of the Urogenital Tract) by Jens Rassweiler.

 

As the senior surgeon at the operating table I’m comfortable to perform from a radical cystoprostatectomy, radical prostatectomy, incontinent and continent urinary diversion, partial nephrectomy, pyeloplasty right through to gender reassignment (male to female) also including the whole spectrum of male and female incontinence surgery. Concerning endourology I can perform a transurethral resection of the prostate (also more than 100g at 2g/min with the continuous- flow resectoscope) with accuracy. I have performed all forms of stone treatment including ESWL, ureterorenoscopy and endoscopic stone extraction, percutaneous nephrolithotomy and anatrophic nephrolithotomy.
