    What are the advantages of surgical treatment in Asklepios?

    The Asklepios concern includes a specialized center for abdominal medicine — «DARMZENTRUM». It was founded and headed by the gastroenterologist Prof. Dr. med. Thomas von Hahn and oncosurgeon Prof. Oldhafer. The center brings together the best specialists in the field of surgery for diseases of the stomach, intestines, gallbladder, and pancreas. One of the main tasks is the treatment of oncology of these organs.

    Professor Karl Oldhafer, chief physician of the Department of General and Oncological Visceral Surgery, annually performs more than 100 operations on the pancreas and about 150 operations on gastric oncology. The doctor annually receives prestigious awards and prizes as one of the best specialists in minimally invasive surgery of gastrointestinal oncology.

    The Asklepios Barmbek Liver Surgery Center is recognized as «a center of excellence in liver surgery». It is the only clinic to have received this certification from the German Society for Visceral Surgery. Based on the Liver Surgery Center, minimally invasive and laparoscopic surgeries, as well as ultrasound surgery, are performed to safely remove liver metastases the size of sunflower seeds.

    The Asklepios Alton Robotic Surgery Clinic provides a wide range of surgical treatments in the following areas:

    • Head and neck surgery, otorhinolaryngology
    • Urology
    • Vascular, general and abdominal surgery
    • Gynecology
    • Robot-assisted operations using the latest generation da Vinci XI device allow doctors to shorten the time of surgery and reduce the size of the incision, which significantly affects the patient’s postoperative rehabilitation and his return to normal life.

    The Lung Center, which since 2013 brings together a team of experienced pulmonologists and thoracic surgeons, treats lung tumors and other diseases of the respiratory system. Thoracic surgeons prefer operations without opening the chest. One of these techniques is video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery — VATS. With this approach, the removal of the tumor is performed through small incisions with diameters of only a few centimeters. This significantly reduces the risk of developing postoperative infectious complications, shortens the rehabilitation time, and increases the prognosis of complete recovery.

    Why do patients choose Asklepios hospitals for oncology treatment?

    In the city of Hamburg alone, 7 Asklepios clinics specialize in oncology treatment. They are united in the Asklepios Tumor Center in Hamburg. This opens up a unique opportunity for patients to receive effective treatment, based on the opinion of more than 200 specialists. Medical oncologists, surgeons, and radiation therapists discuss the therapy plan at weekly conferences. The multidisciplinary approach ensures that the patient is treated according to the latest clinical protocols and reduces the likelihood of medical error. In the Department of Oncohematology 50 patients are simultaneously treated under the constant supervision of a team of 18 doctors-oncologists who treat the following diseases:

    • Acute and chronic forms of leukemia.
    • Myeloproliferative and myelodysplastic syndromes.
    • Aplastic anemia of severe severity.
    • Multiple myeloma.
    • Malignant lymphomas.

    At the same time, doctors use both classical chemotherapy protocols, as well as more modern immunotherapy. Since 2019, doctors have been using an innovative method of CAR-T-cell therapy (Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-CeII) to combat blood cancer, in which the patient’s own T-lymphocytes are extracted and modified. After the introduction of T-lymphocytes back into the patient’s bloodstream, they are able to recognize tumor cells and fight them on their own.

    At the Center for Radiation Medicine, patients undergo radiation therapy for all types of tumors, including tumors in the head and neck region, sarcomas, glioblastomas, esophageal carcinomas, etc.

    The main task of modern radiotherapy is to control the accuracy of radiation and preserve healthy tissue. The clinic’s doctors managed to achieve an accuracy of 1 mm, using in their practice new methods of radiation therapy: VMAT (volume-modulated rotary irradiation) and IGRT (image-guided radiation therapy).
