About the department

The Department of Dermatology, Allergology and Venerology at the Hospital Kassel offers the full range of modern diagnostic tests and effective therapeutic procedures for the treatment of skin diseases, allergic skin manifestations, as well as sexually transmitted diseases. The department is one of the five largest Dermatology Clinics in Germany, so patients can count on the high quality treatment using cutting-edge medical advances. The department's doctors successfully apply conservative and surgical treatments, as well as use state-of-the-art laser systems for the treatment of skin pathologies. One of the department's priority focuses is skin cancer treatment, which is provided within a specialized center. The department treats over 3,700 inpatients and about 10,000 outpatients every year. The department has 82 beds for inpatient treatment. The team of dermatologists working in the medical facility is distinguished by high professionalism and an individual approach to each patient, which allows the doctors to achieve the best treatment results. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Rainer Rompel.

The surgical treatment of dermatological diseases is at the highest level in the department. The surgical treatment methods for skin diseases are most often required for patients with benign and malignant skin neoplasms, congenital and acquired skin defects, as well as inflammatory skin lesions. The doctors of this medical field also specialize in cosmetic procedures for the elimination of varicose veins, pigment spots, including age spots, scars and the consequences of accidents. Prior to the operation, the department's dermatologists thoroughly study the patient's medical history and prescribe the necessary set of diagnostic procedures, according to the results of which they develop the optimal treatment tactics, taking into account not only medical factors, but also the aesthetic aspect.

The most important structural unit of the department is the specialized Skin Cancer Center. The patients with skin cancer receive optimal treatment in accordance with current international protocols, based on the latest medical and scientific advances. Skin cancer is one of the most common types of oncology in the world and every year the number of patients with this pathology grows. The department carries out early diagnostics and prevention of all types of skin cancer. During the diagnostics, the department's specialists use standardized skin cancer screening, epiluminescence microscopy, lymph node ultrasound, photodynamic examinations, radiography, CT and MRI scans. After receiving comprehensive diagnostic results, an individual treatment regimen is developed at an interdisciplinary tumor board. Depending on the stage, localization and aggressiveness of the tumor, the doctors may appoint a surgical intervention for tumor resection, alternative non-surgical methods (for example, photodynamic therapy, cryosurgery, radiation therapy), drug treatment, or several types of treatments combined for maximum efficiency. In most cases, the patient has to undergo chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy or targeted therapy after surgery. The department also provides qualified psycho-oncological care, since such a diagnosis can cause a serious emotional shock for patients and their loved ones, provoke depressive states in the patient, which prevent the achievement of a successful treatment outcome.

The department also includes the Emergency Care Unit, which admits patients with urgent dermatological conditions, such as acute drug and anaphylactoid reactions, acute skin infections, etc. All therapeutic procedures are carried out by a highly professional medical team with long clinical experience.
