University Hospital Bonn: International Awards and Achievements
Specialization of the University Hospital Bonn
University Hospital Bonn specializes in all areas of medicine. Doctors carry out diagnostics and treatment at the highest level for all diseases. However, among all specializations, the leading areas can be distinguished: ophthalmology, endocrinology, pediatric and adult cardiology and cardiac surgery, gynecology, gastroenterology, otolaryngology, pediatric urology, neurourology, neurology and neurosurgery, orthopedics and traumatology, pediatric and adult hematology and oncology.
Oncology
The Department of Comprehensive Oncology at the University Hospital Bonn is part of the Center for Integrated Oncology (CIO). Here, doctors diagnose and treat, give recommendations and advice, adjust nutrition and lifestyle after a cancer diagnosis.
Experienced oncologists of all disciplines create an individual plan of examination and therapy for each patient. Experts work as a team to prescribe the necessary and effective, in each case, techniques.
In the Department of Comprehensive Oncology, doctors deal with pancreatic cancer, acute leukemia, eye tumors, breast, colon, ovary, cervix, uterus, bladder, skin, testicles, liver, lungs, lymph nodes, stomach, oropharynx, neuroendocrine neoplasia, kidneys, prostate, thyroid, salivary gland, esophagus, soft tissue sarcomas, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, brain tumors, multiple myeloma, neuroblastoma. Highly specialized subdivisions have been created in the department as well.

Doctors at University Hospital Bonn diagnose both early and advanced breast cancer. Conservative therapy is used (chemotherapy, radiation, targeted, hormonal therapy) and organ-preserving operations are performed if possible. If the tumor is large, complex therapy (chemotherapy, radiation or hormonal therapy) is performed before the surgery. It reduces the size of the tumor and makes it possible to save the breast. If it is not possible to save the mammary gland, plastic reconstructive surgery is performed after tumor resection.
An interdisciplinary team of experts provides effective care at University Hospital Bonn in the Colon Cancer Center. Doctors collaborate with colleagues from related fields to achieve the most positive result. Colon cancer is diagnosed with the help of colonoscopy and abdominal ultrasound. Sometimes other diagnostic methods are needed. In the later stages of the disease. CT, MRI and PET / CT can accurately diagnose the size of the tumor and the presence of metastases. Surgeons-oncologists perform operations to remove colon cancer using the latest equipment which helps avoid complications and a long rehabilitation period.
The Center for Malignant Tumors of the Endocrine System at University Hospital Bonn treats patients with thyroid carcinomas, neuroendocrine tumors and cancers of other hormone-producing organs. The most advanced diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities are available here to guarantee comprehensive and optimal care, accurate diagnosis, effective therapy and safe operations.
The center provides comprehensive and integrative care: high-precision diagnostics, interventional, drug therapy and surgical interventions are carried out. University Hospital Bonn offers patients primary supportive care which includes individual and timely care in the department of psycho-oncology, social services, diet therapy, pain management and palliative care.

Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery
The Cardiology Center at University Hospital Bonn has become the largest center for cardiology in Germany. It consists of 7 emergency stations, 2 ICUs, 3 operating rooms and 6 cardiac catheter laboratories.
UKB deals with:
Non-invasive:
Invasive:
Treatment
UKB deals with:
- heart defects (aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, mitral valve stenosis, mitral insufficiency, tricuspid valve stenosis, tricuspid regurgitation);
- ischemic heart disease;
- acute and chronic heart failure;
- pathologies of the aorta;
- vascular pathologies;
- lung diseases resulting from cardiac pathologies;
- cardiac arrhythmias.
Non-invasive:
- duplex sonography;
- 3D sonography;
- contrast-enhanced ultrasound;
- CW dopplerography;
- treadmill ergometry;
- capillary microscopy;
- arterial and venous stepping and occlusal plethysmography;
- acral light plethysmography;
- oscillography.
Invasive:
- digital subtraction angiography of the vessels of the pelvis and legs, as well as supraortal vessels;
- intravascular ultrasound.
Treatment
- Drug therapy (drugs that lower or increase blood pressure, beta-blockers, cardiac glycosides, etc);
- Implantation of event recorders in cases of unclear unconsciousness and for the detection of atrial fibrillation;
- Cardiac systems (artificial pumps for highly effective blood circulation support): in case of sudden cardiovascular failure, ECLS (Extracorporeal Life Support System, sometimes also called ECMO) is used to stabilize blood circulation in the short term and start further treatment. If long-term circulatory support is required, a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is usually implanted, and normal function must be achieved for many years.
- Pacemaker therapy: implantation and aftercare (regular use of MRI-enabled devices, implantation of leadless pacemakers through a cardiac catheter through the groin);
- Defibrillator therapy: implantation and postoperative care (MRI-enabled devices, subcutaneous defibrillators without probes in the vessels and heart);
- Cardiac resynchronization therapy: implantation and rehabilitation (CRT) for heart failure (MRI-enabled devices, so-called quadripolar sensors);
- Cardiac beat modulation: implantation and follow-up (CCM) in heart failure (additional therapy in patients with heart failure despite optimal medical therapy);
- Home monitoring and telemetry surveillance and surveillance in front of patients at risk.
Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery
The Department of Pediatric Cardiology at University Hospital Bonn treats infants, children and adolescents with congenital and acquired heart defects. Doctors also successfully perform surgeries on heart defects.
Cardiologists collaborate with the department of prenatal medicine and obstetrics, which allows for multidisciplinary care for babies in the womb. Both premature babies and newborns with heart disease are treated in a state-of-the-art intensive care unit, in collaboration with colleagues from the neonatology department.
It is worth noting interventional catheter therapy — simplification of heart surgery or complete replacement of the operation. This avoids complications and a long rehabilitation period. This method does not leave scars and marks on the body as well.
University Hospital Bonn has special outpatient centers for congenital heart disease, for patients after pacemaker or defibrillator implantation, a prenatal cardiac consultation center, research laboratories and psychosocial care centres.
