About the department
The Department of Endocrinology, Diabetology, Angiology and Internal Medicine at the Hospital Neuperlach Munich offers the full range of diagnostic and therapeutic services for patients suffering from endocrine disorders, including type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus, vascular diseases and various internal diseases. The department is certified by the German Diabetes Society as a specialized Diabetes Center, so the patients can be sure that they will receive highly effective treatment here. In the field of endocrinology, the specialists provide both diagnostics and treatment of thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, pituitary, ovarian and testicular disorders. Angiology focuses on medical care for patients with chronic wounds and vascular stenosis of the lower limbs, but the doctors also deal with the treatment of occlusive peripheral arterial disease of the lower limbs, vascular stenosis, aneurysms, inflammatory vascular lesions, thrombosis, varicose veins and lymphedema. Angiologists cooperate closely with radiologists and vascular surgeons. The specialists cooperatively provide conservative, endovascular and surgical treatment of vascular diseases. More than 2,500 patients undergo treatment in the department every year.
The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Klaus-Dieter Palitzsch. The doctor enjoys a reputation as a highly professional endocrinologist and diabetologist. He is a member of several Examination Boards of the Bavarian State Medical Association, as well as a member of professional German and European societies. In addition, according to the prestigious Focus magazine, Prof. Klaus-Dieter Palitzsch ranks among the best doctors in Germany.
The key to successful treatment is high-quality and accurate diagnostics, and therefore the department has modern laboratories and diagnostic rooms. Should hormonal imbalance be suspected, the specialists conduct hormone tests and functional tests, while high-resolution duplex sonography is used for the assessment of the condition of blood vessels. In cooperation with the Department of Radiology, CT or MR angiography, digital subtraction angiography and other vascular tests are also carried out. In addition, the department has special angiography systems for the assessment of vascular patency.
The department's endocrinologists mostly deal with the diagnostics and treatment of hypothyroidism, nodular goiter, osteoporosis, disorders of calcium and phosphorus metabolism, etc. In most cases, some laboratory tests and ultrasound scanning are sufficient to make a diagnosis. In especially complex cases, functional tests, elastography, radiography, CT and MRI, thyroid scintigraphy (in cooperation with the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology) may be required. The department's medical team specializes in drug treatment of endocrine disorders. The doctors individually select for each patient the most effective medications, which will help to completely get rid of the disease or achieve compensation. If the patient requires surgical treatment, endocrine surgeons will be involved in the therapeutic process. Whenever possible, operations are performed using sparing surgical techniques.
As a certified Diabetes Center, the department is proud of its outstanding success in the treatment of various types of diabetes mellitus, including type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, gestational diabetes and rare types of the disease. In addition, the department's medical team specializes in the treatment of diabetic foot syndrome, which is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus. The treatment of any type of diabetes mellitus is based on the control of blood glucose levels using an optimally selected regimen of insulin therapy, diet therapy and physical activities. The patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus are also offered combination therapy using insulin injections and tableted antihyperglycemic drugs. Particular attention is paid to consultations and special training aimed at teaching patients with diabetes mellitus a new way of life.
The department's service range is complemented by the diagnostics and treatment of vascular diseases. Of particular interest for the specialists in this field is the treatment of occlusive peripheral arterial disease of the lower limbs, stenosis, aneurysms and inflammatory arterial lesions, thrombosis, varicose veins, lymphedema and other peripheral vascular diseases. The department is proud of its excellent diagnostic options, which range from capillary microscopy, duplex sonography and angiography to oscillography, pulse wave velocity measurement and rheography. After receiving diagnostic results, the department's angiologists jointly with radiologists and vascular surgeons develop an individual treatment regimen for the patient. Whenever possible, the preference is given to conservative methods, such as drug therapy, compression therapy, etc. If the patient suffering from vascular pathology requires endovascular or surgical treatment, then it is provided by the highly specialized experts.
