Cancer treatment in the University Cancer Center Leipzig
This large cancer center, which was certified by the German Cancer Society in 2015, treats all types of cancer, including cancer of unknown primary site (CUP) and rare malignant tumors.
Each type of cancer is treated by a specialized team of oncologists in the respective specialized department. Oncologists use advanced hybrid imaging methods:
- PET-CT (positron emission computed tomography);
- PET-MRI (positron emission magnetic resonance imaging);
- SPECT-CT (single photon emission computed tomography).
These informative and gentle examinations are carried out to clarify the stage of the cancer, plan radiation therapy, and evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment. Treatment protocols are developed by an interdisciplinary board, which includes leading experts in each type of cancer treatment.
The therapy includes advanced and innovative treatments:
- minimally invasive tumor surgery, including robotic surgery for the initial stages of some types of cancer;
- radiotherapy using innovative radiation technologies, including intensity modulated (IMRT), intraoperative and selective internal radiation (SIRT), and radionuclide therapy;
- targeted and immune therapy, cell therapy, and high-dose polychemotherapy with stem cell transplantation.
All patients with oncology receive specialized psychological assistance and professional care.
TCM and cell therapy at University Hospital Leipzig
Since 1980, the hospital has performed all options for autologous and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) and stem cells. Since 2009, the Cell Therapy Department has been internationally certified by EBMT.
University Hospital Leipzig has a long history of successful cooperation with donor registries in Germany and around the world. All patients, in the absence of a related donor, are matched with a donor or donor cell material using these registries.
Before BMT from unrelated donors and partially compatible related donors, a special procedure is performed. It is called depletion (selection) of certain types of T-cells, which guarantees engraftment of the bone marrow. In addition to TCM, innovative therapy with CAR-T cells is being carried out.
The department has extensive experience in conducting successful stem cell transplantations in elderly patients who cannot be fully prepared for standard BMT. In these difficult cases, University Hospital Leipzig gives them a chance for a cure.
Cochlear Implantation in University Hospital Leipzig
In the ENT clinic of University Hospital Leipzig, there is a specialized Cochlear Implantation Center, which has been approved by the corresponding German certification TÜV Thüringen. Here, adults and children with congenital and acquired deafness who are not helped by a hearing aid are restored to hearing with the help of an artificial implant. The implantation of electronic hearing prostheses in the inner ear is on stream, so the success rate of operations is, according to the clinic, more than 90%.
Also, in the Cochlear Implantation Center, after surgery, you can pass various outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation programs. They are aimed at the complete restoration of hearing and speech. It is designed for children of all ages and adults, including people with severe comorbidities and cognitive impairment. They involve many specialists including otolaryngologists, audiologists, speech therapists, psychologists, and technologists.
If you are interested in this particular clinic, leave a request on the Experts Medical website. You will be contacted by a coordinating doctor who will provide complete information about the treatment at University Hospital Leipzig and fully organize the trip.
