About the department
The Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at the University Hospital Muenster offers the full range of diagnostic and therapeutic services in these fields. Over the years of successful clinical activities, the department has gained a reputation as one of the largest pediatric medical facilities of this kind in Germany. The department annually treats more than 1,200 inpatients and about 15,000 outpatients with oncopathologies and blood diseases. The department has stem cell transplantation program. The exceptional quality of the department’s medical services is confirmed by the German Cancer Society certification. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Claudia Rössig.
Special attention should be paid to the productive research activities of the department. The department's specialists take part in all national and international researches on the optimization of the treatment of cancer and hematological diseases (within the Society of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology). In addition, the department implements large-scale international research projects for the treatment of patients with Ewing's sarcoma, germ cell tumors and non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
If conventional therapy does not yield positive results, the patients can participate in clinical trials. The goal of all clinical and experimental researches is to develop new cancer treatments in children and adolescents. In addition, the department’s tasks include the provision of competent palliative care, which helps to improve the quality of life of patients with incurable oncopathology. Since cancer diagnosis in most cases causes a strong emotional shock, psychological support to young patients and their families is also an integral part of the therapy.
The department specializes in autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Most often, allogeneic transplantation is required for children suffering from leukemia and congenital or acquired types of bone marrow failure. In more rare cases, the transplantation may be used to treat metabolic disorders, expressed congenital or acquired immunodeficiency conditions. Before the transplantation, the patient receives prior treatment, the so-called conditioning. The patient’s own bone marrow is destroyed by chemotherapy or total body irradiation, followed by the transplantation of donor stem cells.
The service range of the department includes:
- Diagnostics and treatment of leukemia (acute lymphoblastic and acute myeloid leukemia)
- Chemotherapy (intensive course, which lasts from 6 to 10 months)
- Allogeneic stem cell transplantation
- Diagnostics and treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphomas
- Diagnostics and treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma
