About the department

According to the Focus magazine, the Department of Gynecology and Mammology at the University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf ranks among the top German departments specializing in breast cancer treatment!

The department offers the full range of diagnostic and therapeutic services in its areas of specialization. Due to its successful clinical activities, the department has the status of a supraregional Competence Center for Surgical and Conservative Gynecologic Oncology, as well as of the leading Breast Cancer Center. All therapeutic measures meet the modern standards of both national and international specialized societies. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Barbara Schmalfeldt.

The department's competent team of doctors and nurses provides treatment of all gynecologic diseases at the highest level of university medicine. The treatment is provided both on an inpatient and outpatient basis. If surgical treatment is necessary, the preference is always given to organ-sparing and minimally invasive interventions. The department also has an advanced robotic da Vinci surgical system. The department's surgeons annually perform about 1,300 inpatient and more than 1,150 outpatient interventions.

The department's doctors have many effective treatment methods for this pathology, including organ-sparing operations. In especially difficult and neglected cases, when it is not possible to preserve the patient’s own breast, the doctors offer reconstructive plastic surgery (breast reconstruction using implants, nipple reconstruction, etc.).
