Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology
Beijing Tiantan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University is a clinical and teaching department integrating medicine, teaching and research in obstetrics and gynecology. The department has 81 beds. In the past five years, the number of average annual outpatient visits has passed 100,000, with 6,000 patients admitted. The number of average annual emergency visits has reached 5000, with more than 5000 surgeries. The Obstetrics and Gynecology Department is a designated hospital for the high-risk maternal rescue, for consultation of pregnancy with craniocerebral disease. The department has a doctoral program in obstetrics and gynecology at Capital Medical University and is a professional base for standardized training of obstetrics and gynecology residents in Beijing.It was awarded as the qualification of Endoscopic Diagnosis and Treatment Technology Training Base and National Pharmacology Base by the Ministry of Health. It is a four level endoscopic base for gynecology along the the Belt and Road.
The department has 36 doctors, including 14 PhD or MD, 21 master’s degree. There are seven chief physicians, ten chief physicians, 12 attending physicians, and 7 resident physicians; including two professors, five associate professors.There are one doctoral supervisor, and 4 master's supervisors. We have strong clinical diagnosis, treatment, teaching, and research capabilities, and have made significant progress in the past decade.
Gynecology department has three professional groups: general gynecology, gynecological oncology, and reproductive surgery. Admission of common benign gynecological diseases (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, endometrial hyperplasia, uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, ovarian tumor, endometriosis, pelvic floor dysfunction), malignant tumor (staging surgery for endometrial cancer, debulking surgery for ovarian cancer, radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer, chemotherapy for malignant tumors, and preservation of fertility function for early malignant tumors). Minimally invasive surgery has become a prominent feature of gynecology, accounting for over 90% of ward surgeries. In the past 20 years, doctors completed more than 50,000 cases of hysteroscopies and laparoscopes, the complication rate is less than 1%. Hysteroscopic surgery has reached advanced domestic and international levels, such as hysteromediastinoplasty, removal of uterine fibroids lager than 5 cm, lysis of severe uterine adhesions, which have enabled many infertile women to successfully conceive after surgery. The unique "one hole method gasless laparoscopic surgery" , the "vaginal sealing surgery" for elderly patients with uterine prolapse, and the diagnosis and treatment of vaginoscopy for asexual patients have brought minimally invasive surgery into a more miniature and non-invasive realm.
Minimally invasive surgery owns the advantages of minimal damage, faster recovery, fewer complications, and shorter hospital stay. At present, outpatient hysteroscopy and day surgery have been carried out, allowing patients to receive "see and treat" modality without hospitalization.
Gynecological endocrinology is not only related to women's health and fertility, but also to their quality of life. Therefore, managing gynecological endocrinology well plays a crucial role throughout patients’ entire life. Tiantan Hospital has established a gynecological endocrinology professional group to diagnose and treat various diseases, including menstrual related diseases, polycystic ovary syndrome, abnormal uterine bleeding, hyperprolactinemia, infertility, perimenopausal related diseases, recurrent miscarriage. A multidisciplinary management team has been established in collaboration with neurosurgery, psychology, cardiology, nutrition, and health management and pharmacy, providing comprehensive health management for patients.
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women globally,recently, the incidence rate of cervical disease has increased with rising incidence trend of younger age. Standard Comprehensive cervical cancer control includes primary prevention (vaccination against HPV), secondary prevention (screening and treatment of pre-cancerous lesions), tertiary prevention (diagnosis and treatment of invasive cervical cancer) and palliative care. Department of Tiantan Hospital has always been committed to the standardized diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of cervical lesions, and strives to improve the knowledge and health awareness of cervical diseases among female friends.
The obstetrics department of Tiantan Hospital is the consultation Center for pregnancy with craniocerebral disease in Beijing.; municipal high-risk maternal rescue center. The hospital has a fast track for emergent pregnancy and rescue. There have been no maternal deaths for more than ten years, receiving awards from the Municipal Health Commission. We successfully treated maternal critically ill, including amniotic fluid embolism, pregnancy complicated with severe pancreatitis, and pregnancy complicated with craniocerebral diseases under the cooperation of neurosurgery, neurology, anesthesiology, ICU, and internal medicine. The medical level of obstetrics is among the top in the city.
The obstetrics department of Tiantan Hospital has implemented 24-hour "painless delivery", to ensure the safety of the mother and fetus, without affecting the regular contraction of the uterus, and blocking the transmission of pain nerves during delivery. “Painless delivery "is medically known as “labor analgesia”. Anesthesiologists insert a catheter in the epidural space, and anesthetic drugs are pumped into the mother's body by a pain relief pump connected to one end of the catheter. The concentration and dosage of anesthetic drugs are low, and the amount of medication that enters the fetus through the placenta is very small. Not only will it not affect the baby, but it can also reduce the pain during childbirth and improve the natural delivery rate.
With the improvement of medical technique, as well as the enhancement of service awareness among medical staff, the patient visits has significantly increased in recent years.After entering new hospitals, the number of visits has increased by 50%. Gynecology department receives domestic and foreign patients.
