About the department

The Department of Gynecology, Mammology and Obstetrics at the Helios Hospital Berlin-Buch offers the full service range in these fields. The department specializes in the treatment of benign and malignant diseases of the female reproductive organs, breast, as well as comprehensive pregnancy management, childbirth and postpartum care. A treatment regimen is developed for each patient individually. Most surgical interventions can be performed using sparing surgical techniques. The department is certified by the German Cancer Society as the Center for Gynecologic Oncology, which indicates strict adherence to national treatment protocols and high quality of treatment. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Michael Untch.

In the field of gynecology, the focus is on the treatment of precancerous conditions (cervical dysplasia), benign and malignant pathologies of the uterus and ovaries. Thanks to many effective treatment methods available in the department, each patient receives an individual treatment plan corresponding to her specific clinical indications, stage of pathology, etc. The department annually treats about 5,000 patients, as well as performs more than 3,000 surgical interventions every year. These figures confirm the high effectiveness of treatment and the tremendous experience of doctors. It is also worth noting that during surgical treatment, the surgeons make every effort to preserve the affected organs as much as possible.

The department's mammologists specialize in breast cancer treatment. The scope of their competence also includes the treatment of benign breast changes, such as cysts, fibroadenomas, lipomas, mastopathy, abscesses. To diagnose breast diseases, the department has such modern imaging techniques as ultrasound, mammography, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, positron emission tomography. In addition, it performs all types of breast biopsies, including needle biopsy, vacuum-assisted biopsy, biopsy of the normal and sentinel lymph nodes. To treat the advanced stages of breast cancer, which require radical resection, the doctors carry out reconstructive interventions to restore the aesthetic appearance.

Obstetrics is also a priority in clinical practice. The experienced doctors, obstetricians and nurses work around the clock and do everything possible to make the childbirth as safe as possible for the mother and baby. The department delivers about 3,000 babies annually. The department has three maternity rooms equipped with water baths, which are an excellent alternative to classical childbirth.
