About the department
The Department of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Hand Surgery, Burn Surgery at the Hospital Kassel offers the full range of medical services in the areas of its specialization at the highest level of modern medicine. The department's team of plastic surgeons focuses on surgery to reconstruct large defects in soft and bone tissue after accidents or tumor removal, treatment of chronic wounds, breast reconstruction using autologous tissues in women after breast cancer, as well as surgery for congenital and acquired hand diseases, burn treatment. In addition, the department successfully performs lymphedema surgery. Aesthetic plastic surgery is also very demanded in the department. The patients often undergo breast augmentation, face and neck lift, otoplasty, rhinoplasty, etc. The department's specialists pay due attention to an individual approach to each patient and the selection of the best surgical treatment method for the restoration of aesthetics of the face and body. The doctors use in their clinical practice only advanced surgical techniques, which exclude trauma to healthy adjacent tissues. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Goetz Andreas Giessler.
Before making a decision about the advisability of plastic surgery, the surgeon holds a consultation with a patient, during which he conducts a clinical examination, listens to the patient's wishes and offers him possible options for the elimination of a defect. The next stage of the therapeutic process is comprehensive diagnostics, including assessment of laboratory indicators and the functioning of organs in order to eliminate health risks to the patient during or after surgery. If the clinical parameters are satisfactory, the patient is admitted to surgery. The department has state-of-the-art computer simulation systems, with the help of which the plastic surgeon can reproduce images with the expected result of the upcoming intervention in various projections, for example, a patient who wants to undergo rhinoplasty (nose reshaping) can see and assess his face with a new form of the nose even before the operation. Such an approach is a modern standard in the field of plastic surgery in developed countries with a high level of medicine, as it helps to avoid unsatisfactory results of surgery and repeated corrective plastic surgery.
The department's specialists have successful experience in the treatment of the most complex hand injuries and diseases. The department offers both conservative and surgical treatment methods. With appropriate clinical indications, it is possible to provide outpatient treatment. The key areas of work of the surgeons in this field include the treatment of hand injuries of any severity, including replantation of amputated limbs, treatment of compression syndromes, arthrosis, chronic pain syndromes, treatment of Dupuytren's contracture, correction of congenital hand malformations, restoration of hand functionality after paralysis, etc.
The department's team of plastic surgeons is responsible for the comprehensive treatment of lymphedema. Initially, the doctors use only conservative treatment – complex physical antiedema therapy. This type of therapy is the basis of modern lymphedema treatment. It consists of four key elements: manual lymphatic drainage, compression therapy, intensive skin care and therapeutic exercise. However, in most cases, a combination of conservative measures and a surgical intervention is required. The department's doctors specialize in such effective lymphedema surgical procedures as lymphovenous anastomosis and vascularized lymph node transfer. The interventions are performed using microsurgical techniques.
