In our polyclinic we run a special consultation hour for children with congenital bleeding disorders (headed by Prof. Dr. med. N. von der Weid). Children with hemophilia A or B, rare factor deficiencies, von Willebrand syndrome or thrombocytopathies are cared for here. We attach great importance to interdisciplinary treatment, including hemophilia nurses and specialized physiotherapists.
University Children’s Hospital Basel (UKKB) Hematology/Oncology
If necessary, pediatric orthopaedists, dentists or pain specialists can be consulted. The Hematology-Oncology team offers a 24/365 emergency on-call service for this group of patients. In close cooperation (clinic, laboratory, research) with the hemostasis team at the University Hospital Basel (USB, headed by Prof. Dr. med. D. Tsakiris) we meet the requirements of the World Federation of Hemophilia for a national hemophilia center.
The same team also treats the smaller group of patients with congenital or acquired thrombophilia, patients (from neonates to adolescents) with thrombo-embolic events and monitors anticoagulation therapy.
