About the Department of Vascular Surgery at University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf

The Department of Vascular Surgery at the University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf offers all the modern options for the diagnostics and treatment of vascular diseases. The activities of the department are based on an integrated approach to the treatment, therefore, the experts in the field of vascular surgery, interventional treatment and conservative therapy work hand in hand here. An important role in the department's clinical practice plays the use of sparing minimally invasive techniques. The department annually serves about 4,000 outpatients and more than 1,500 inpatients. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Eike Sebastian Debus.

Of particular interest to department's physicians is the treatment of carotid artery stenosis, aortic aneurysms, peripheral arterial occlusive disease, varicose veins, thromboses and vascular malformations. In addition, the scope of competence covers the treatment of chronic wounds and wound healing disorders (within a specialized center), rare diseases, such as compression syndromes or malignant vascular tumors.

The diagnostic and therapeutic options of the department include:

  • Diagnostics
    • Color duplex sonography of the entire vascular system
    • Treadmill ergometer
    • Oscillography
    • Percutaneous measurement of oxygen partial pressure
    • Capillary microscopy
    • Angiography
  • Therapy
    • Conservative therapy (drug treatment, modification of the risks of development of vascular disease)
    • Catheter interventional therapy (stent implantation, balloon angioplasty)
    • Open surgical interventions
    • Emergency medical care (24 hours) in the following cases:
      • Aortic rupture or dissection
      • Acute stroke
      • Bleeding from large vessels
      • Acute arterial occlusion
      • Traumatic vascular lesions
    • Dialysis access formation
  • Other medical services

The department specializes in the treatment of the following diseases:

  • Carotid stenosis in the case of development of risk or previous stroke
  • Intracranial and subclavian artery stenosis
  • Thoracic or abdominal aortic aneurysms
  • Aortic dissection
  • Stenosis, occlusion and aneurysms of the arteries of the internal organs
  • Stenosis, occlusion and aneurysms of the aorta, pelvic vessels and lower limbs
  • Vascular tumors
  • Congenital vascular malformations
  • Varicose veins
  • Deep vein thrombosis
  • Diabetic foot syndrome
  • Chronic wounds
  • Prosthetic infection
  • Compression syndromes (for example, Dunbar syndrome, thoracic outlet syndrome)
  • Rare vascular diseases
  • Other pathologies of the circulatory system
