The two branches of the hospital, in Giessen and Marburg, treat more than 500,000 patients every year. The hospital is part of the Justus-Liebig-University Giessen. This means that new medicines, as well as diagnostic and surgical methods, are available at the clinic earlier than ever before.

The hospital has 80 departments. The hospital’s main specialities are anaesthesiology, transplantology, robotic surgery, oncology and oncological surgery, neurosurgery, ophthalmology and paediatrics.

Features of the Clinic

Oncology Department of the Giessen and Marburg Univeristy Hospital

Cancer treatment with modern chemotherapy drugs is available at the Department of Oncology at the University Hospital Giessen and Marburg. At the same time, the doctors take care of the unpleasant side effects of the treatment. Patients have been prescribed medication for nausea and undergo cryotherapy to preserve their hair.

The Radiotherapy Centre at the German clinic in Giessen and Marburg meets the strict requirements of the German Society for Radiation Oncology (DEGRO) and the German Society for Medical Physics (DGMP).

Radiation therapy takes place on state-of-the-art linear accelerators IMRT and IMAT / VMAT. The system allows the radiation to be pinpointed to preserve healthy cells. Accuracy of action is improved by the fact that the machine adapts to the person’s breathing. Each year, 1,500 patients receive radiation therapy at the hospital.

University Hospital of Giessen and Marburg

A unique method of treating cancer with ion therapy is available at the Ion Therapy Centre. Its principle is similar to that of radiotherapy: the patient’s tumour is exposed to radiation. However, instead of X-rays, the machine uses ions and protons.

This therapy is faster and less harmful to the patient. For example, after particle therapy at the Gießen and Marburg University Hospital, dry mouth and stomach diseases were less frequently diagnosed among patients.

There are only 3 clinics in Germany where this treatment is available.

More than 200 patients have successfully undergone ion-proton therapy. In 2016, the clinic performed proton therapy on an infant for the first time. Ion-proton therapy can be used to treat:

  • soft tissue sarcoma;
  • brain tumours;
  • prostate cancer;
  • pancreatic cancer.

Department of Neurosurgery at Giessen and Marburg Hospital

University Hospital of Giessen and Marburg

At the neurosurgery department of the Gießen and Marburg Hospital, patients can be diagnosed with neurological disorders at an early stage. Doctors will make an accurate diagnosis using modern methods:

  • computed tomography (CT) scan;
  • magnetic resonance imaging (MRI);
  • myelography (X-ray of the spinal cord);
  • angiography (vascular examination);
  • fluorescence imaging.

Patients with severe epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, trigeminal neuralgia and chronic pain come to the clinic. The diseases are treated with:

  • thermocoagulation;
  • vascular decompression;
  • transcranial magnetic stimulation;
  • surgical removal of the epilepsy focus.

The neuro-oncology department, which is certified by the German Cancer Society (DKG), deserves special attention. The treatment programme is drawn up by a panel of oncologists, radiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons and oncologists on an individual patient basis.

The operating theatres at the Gießen and Marburg clinics are equipped with intraoperative navigation and multimodal imaging. The modern technical equipment reduces the risk of medical errors and enables tumours to be removed precisely, even in areas of the brain that are difficult to reach.

The Gießen and Marburg Hospital is one of the few in Germany to be equipped with the modern da Vinci robotic system. With it, doctors can perform precise and minimally traumatic operations after which the patient recovers more easily and within 3-4 weeks.

The Da Vinci System is a robotic surgeon that is remotely controlled by a doctor. The operating console gives the surgeon a three-dimensional microscopic vision system and allows the surgeon to see small vessels in 10x magnification. And the motion scaling system allows for unmistakable precision actions. This is particularly important in brain surgery.

The da Vinci robot is used extensively in adult and paediatric urology, otolaryngology, oncology, gynaecology and in the departments of visceral, thoracic and vascular surgery.
