Non-ma­li­gnant ha­ema­to­lo­gy

Diagnostics, therapy and aftercare in the area of non-malignant haematology includes, among other things

  • Haemolytic anaemia
    Haemolytic anaemia occurs when red blood cells are destroyed or broken down too early. There are many causes for this. Typical symptoms are paleness, tiredness, yellowing of the skin and mucous membranes and an enlargement of the spleen
  • Iron deficiency anaemia of unknown origin
  • Haemochromatosis
    Haemochromatosis is an abnormal, increased deposition of iron (or iron-containing compounds such as haemosiderin) in the body as a result of an increased iron concentration in the blood. There are congenital (hereditary) and acquired haemosideroses.
  • Haemoglobinopathy / thalassaemia
  • Coagulation disorders
  • Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and other thrombocytopenias
  • AL amyloidoses
    AL-type amyloidosis is caused by the deposition of subunits of defence proteins, the so-called immunoglobulin light chains. These light chains are formed by pathologically altered immune cells in the bone marrow or lymph glands (plasma cells/lymph cells). The development of AL amyloidosis is closely related and partly linked to tumorous diseases of the bone marrow and lymph glands, such as multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
  • Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS)
  • Monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis
