In Germany, more than 70,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. In order to detect and treat the disease optimally, we act according to high quality criteria. In March 2004, we were one of the first breast centers to receive certification from the German Cancer Society (DKG) and the German Society for Senology (DGS).

Our center is reviewed at annual intervals and the certificate is renewed.

The Head and Neck Tumor Center at the University Cancer Center Hamburg (UCCH) has been certified by the German Cancer Society (DKG) since 2011.

Here, we work together with other tumor experts on an interdisciplinary basis to determine the optimal, individual tumor therapy for tumor diseases. In our treatment, we are committed to organ- and function-sparing and restorative tumor therapy.

Sarcomas are malignant changes in the soft tissue, i.e. the connective and supporting tissue as well as the peripheral nerves and bones. With over 50 different subtypes, they can occur almost anywhere in the body, but are very rare overall.

Due to this very specific clinical picture, precise diagnosis and close interdisciplinary collaboration in centers with sufficient experience are important for successful treatment. To this end, the Sarcoma Center Hamburg was founded in 2012 and is one of the largest sarcoma centers in Germany.
