Course of treatment
Firstly, a diagnostic clarification takes place in the consultation hours of the outpatient clinics.
- Detailed medical history
- Careful vaginal examination
- Ultrasound with state-of-the-art ultrasound equipment,
- Radiological imaging procedures (MRI, CT, PET CT) depending on the clinical picture and therapeutic consequences
- Possibly multidisciplinary colonoscopy, gastroscopy, cystoscopy
- Dysplasia consultations to clarify abnormal pap smears, tissue damage to the vagina, cervix and external genitalia.
In the case of malignant diseases, all patients are discussed in the tumour board.
Therapies and surgical procedures
- Conservative therapy (medication, regular check-ups)
- Surgery: The range of minimally invasive surgery ranges from hysteroscopy (uterine endoscopy) and laparoscopy (abdominal endoscopy) to robot-assisted laparoscopy. In the latter, we have the latest generation of DaVinci Xi robots at our disposal. The advantages of laparoscopy for patients are the small skin incisions and the faster recovery.
- Hysteroscopy and scraping to clarify bleeding disorders and the unfulfilled desire to have children, as well as the treatment of bleeding, polyps and fibroids in the uterine cavity
- Laparoscopy with Da Vinci assistance for the removal of the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, fibroids and sampling, stage-appropriate surgery for uterine cancer with the removal of lymph nodes as well as clarification of the unfulfilled desire to have children and testing the patency of the fallopian tubes
- Abdominal incision surgery: major interdisciplinary debulking surgery for ovarian cancer, fallopian tube and peritoneal cancer, radical removal of the uterus for cervical cancer
- Multivisceral surgery with the aim of complete tumour reduction with bowel resection and anastomosis, as well as resection of the ureters and urinary bladder by urologists
- Radical vulvectomy (removal of the external genital organs) with plastic reconstruction
- Conisation and scraping for precancerous lesions (dysplasia)
- Removal of benign diseases of the vagina and external genitalia, e.g. Bartholin's cyst/abscess, lesions in the genital area and removal of conspicuous inguinal lymph nodes
