About the department

As part of the Interdisciplinary Cancer Center (IOZ), the Department of Oncology and Hematology at the Marien Hospital Duesseldorf offers the full range of services in the field of diagnostics and drug treatment of malignant tumors of the internal organs, sarcomas, as well as diseases of the blood and lymphatic system (lymphomas, leukemia, etc.). Medical care is provided both on an inpatient and outpatient basis. The department has 44 beds for inpatient treatment, as well as additional 6 beds for patients who require palliative care. Each clinical case is considered by doctors at regular interdisciplinary tumor boards, which allow the specialists to develop an individual treatment regimen taking into account the patient's particular needs and achieve the desired result. In addition to first-class medical care, the focus is on interdisciplinary oncological consultations, psychological assistance and follow-up care for patients upon the completion of treatment. The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Aristoteles Giagounidis.

The department's oncologists have been successfully treating solid malignant tumors and sarcomas for many years. The treatment of certain types of cancer is provided in specialized centers: the Breast Center, the Bowel Cancer Center, the Prostate Cancer Center. The department also successfully deals with the treatment of oncological diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, lungs, kidneys, bladder, brain and other organs. Each case of cancer is unique and requires an individual approach, so the specialists of the medical facility develop a treatment regimen at the tumor board with the participation of doctors of the required specialties. Before starting treatment, the doctor explains the therapeutic regimen to the patient, talks about the expected results and answers the patient's questions.

The department's specialists have a wide range of therapeutic techniques for the treatment of the most complex types of cancer. In most cases, an integral part of the treatment is surgical tumor resection. However, the surgical intervention is not enough to cure cancer. Doctors also resort to various chemotherapy regimens in the form of infusions, pills, and topical agents. Targeted therapy, antihormone therapy, immunotherapy are also carried out. The department also offers palliative care for patients with advanced cancer. This type of therapy does not lead to recovery, but allows the patient to live without pain and other symptoms.

The department specializes in the treatment of the following diseases:

  • Oncology
    • Breast cancer
    • Lung and pleural cancer (bronchial carcinoma, pleural mesothelioma)
    • Esophageal cancer
    • Gastrointestinal cancer (tumors of the stomach, colon, rectum)
    • Pancreatic cancer
    • Cancer of the female and male reproductive systems (for example, cervical, uterine, ovarian, testicular cancers)
    • Kidney and urinary tract cancers (hypernephroma, bladder carcinomas)
    • Bone and soft tissue tumors (bones and soft tissue sarcomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors)
    • Brain tumors
  • Hematology
    • Tumors of the lymphatic system (malignant lymphoma, plasmacytoma)
    • Chronic leukemia
  • Other diseases

The department's range of services includes the following therapeutic options:

  • Drug therapy for tumors (chemotherapy)
    • Intravenous chemotherapy
    • Oral (in the form of pills) chemotherapy
    • Local or regional chemotherapy
    • Antihormone therapy (for example, for breast or prostate cancer)
  • Biochemotherapy methods (the use of antibodies and enzyme inhibitors to suppress the division of tumor cells or kill them)
  • Combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy for local advanced tumors of various origins
  • Regional therapy
    • Chemoperfusion and chemoembolization (in collaboration with the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology)

About hospital

The Marien Hospital Duesseldorf is a modern medical facility in the very center of Duesseldorf and a recognized Research Center. The foundation stone of the hospital was laid back in 1864 with the support of the Catholic Church. The Christian principles of helping and supporting patients have not changed at all over the years, but the level of medical care has become fundamentally different: a small hospital has been transformed into a multidisciplinary medical center with 11 internal departments, institutes and 7 interdisciplinary centers. Thus, patients can receive a comprehensive diagnostic examination and treatment under one roof. The medical facility is an academic hospital, so patients have access to innovative achievements in the field of modern medicine and receive the most effective treatment.

The hospital has 437 beds for inpatient treatment. It provides first-class medical services to 63,000 patients every year. The doctors and nursing staff of the hospital strive to provide each patient with customized treatment, taking into account their wishes and needs. In addition to providing top-class medical care, the specialists pay attention to the humane attitude towards patients and their life situation. Doctors devote enough time to personal communication with patients and support them in every possible way on their path to recovery.

The team of the hospital consists of competent doctors who are the best professionals in their medical field. They all work in interdisciplinary cooperation. In their clinical practice, doctors use state-of-the-art equipment, the very latest technologies, as well as innovative treatment methods, which in combination allows achieving optimal treatment outcomes.
