About the department
The Department of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Infectology at the University Hospital Jena offers the full range of diagnostics and treatment for patients with gastrointestinal diseases ranging from the esophagus to the rectum, pancreas, liver, gallbladder and biliary tract. In addition, the treatment of acute and chronic infections is carried out in close cooperation with the specialized Center for Infectious Medicine. The competence also includes the provision of emergency care to patients with all diseases in the field of internal medicine. The clinical practice is based on the use of the very latest technical equipment, innovative treatment methods and high-precision diagnostic options, which in combination with the outstanding professionalism of doctors helps to achieve the best therapy result. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Andreas Stallmach.
As a university medical facility, the department is actively engaged in studying the causes of gastroenterological diseases, particularly chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, as well as chronic liver diseases. It conducts a large number of clinical trials, which makes it possible to offer each patient the best treatment options adapted to the particular clinical case. Another research focus is the improvement of early diagnostics using modern endoscopic procedures.
The department is part of the Endoscopy Center (together with the Department of General and Abdominal Surgery), which has the state-of-art medical equipment for all types of endoscopic examinations of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, biliary tract and pancreas. In addition to the diagnostics, special attention is paid to endoscopic treatment of various diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, pancreas and bile ducts. For example, the department widely uses endoscopic procedures to stop gastrointestinal hemorrhage, remove polyps (precursors of cancer), esophageal or bile duct stent implantation in case of obstruction of various origins. In addition, the spectrum is complemented by photodynamic therapy (for example, for the treatment of esophageal or bile duct tumors). The endoscopic procedures are sparing treatments (help to avoid surgery), but they are no less effective than traditional interventions.
The department specializes in the diagnostics and treatment of the following diseases:
- Gastroenterology
- Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases
- Gastrointestinal tumors
- Biliary tract diseases
- Pancreatic diseases
- Hepatology
- Autoimmune liver diseases
- Infectious liver diseases
- Toxic liver diseases (especially associated with the effects of alcohol abuse)
- Iron overload disorders
- Infectology
- Infection with multi-resistant pathogens
- Pneumonia, tuberculosis and other respiratory infections
- HIV and AIDS
- Other diseases
The diagnostic and therapeutic range in the field of endoscopy includes:
- Esophagogastroduodenoscopy
- Chromo- and video endoscopy
- Urease short-term test for helicobacter pylori
- Treatment of esophageal varices using ligation or sclerotherapy
- Dilatation of benign and malignant stenoses of the esophagus, stomach and upper small intestine
- Treatment of achalasia cardia using pneumatic dilatation
- Treatment of bleeding gastrointestinal ulcers using injections, clamps, fibrin glue
- Mucosectomy in dysplasia/early stages of esophageal and gastric cancer

About hospital
According to the prestigious Focus magazine, the University Hospital Jena regularly ranks among the top German medical facilities!
The hospital has positioned itself as a multidisciplinary medical facility with a long history of more than 200 years. Since its foundation, the hospital has been constantly developing and modernizing, thanks to which nowadays it offers patients the highest level of treatment in Germany based on the use of innovative technologies and the very latest therapeutic techniques. The hospital consists of 26 specialized departments and 25 research institutes. It treats more than 53,600 inpatients and about 274,000 outpatients every year. The staff of the hospital includes more than 5,600 competent doctors.
The extensive resources of the university hospital, high treatment standards, and the introduction of new research developments provide first-class treatment in Germany meeting the stringent international standards. The hospital has an excellent reputation not only in Germany, but also far beyond its borders, due to which it accepts a large number of foreign patients for the diagnostics and treatment.
Despite the technical progress and the availability of accurate computerized systems, the patient’s physical health and emotional state is the main value of each employee of the hospital, since some diagnoses cause emotional distress in patients. The doctors of the hospital believe that the key to a successful result is a comprehensive and individual approach, so they spend a lot of time talking with patients, listen carefully to all their wishes and support at all stages of the therapeutic process. All this in combination with high-precision diagnostic techniques and the very latest types of therapy forms a solid basis for the achievement of an optimal treatment result.
