Consultation Session for Biliopancreatic Tumor Patients
This consultation session is specialized in the interdisciplinary treatment of tumors of the pancreas and the biliary tract. In addition we also treat other gastrointestinal tumors, preferably according to clinical trial protocols. Nursing care and administrative support will be carried out within the Outpatient Clinic for Hematology and Oncology. This consultation session cooperates closely with the general oncology consultation session, the Colon Cancer Center with the gastrointestinal tumor consultation session, and the gastroenterological Outpatient Clinic of the I. Medical Clinic, the Consultation Session for Phase I Study Patients, and the Consultation Sessions of the University Cancer Center Hamburg (UCCH) for the prevention of cancer, hereditary tumor diseases and cancer care.
The close cooperation with the Departments of General, Visceral and Thoracic Surgery, Hepatobiliary Surgery, Radiotherapy, Radiology, Gastroenterology, and the Institute for Pathology as well as the regular patient presentations in our tumor board allows oncological treatment at the highest level and the best possible sequence of therapeutic options:
- Tumor surgery
- Chemotherapy
- Radiotherapy
- New drug therapies within the framework of clinical trial protocols
- Innovative personalized therapy approaches
- Local ablative procedures such as transarterial chemoembolization und microwave ablation
A good and trusting cooperation with our established network partners composed of regional primary care physicians and other specialists in private practice allows for further oncological care close to the patient’s home as well as inclusion in to clinical trials at the Cancer Center and within in the Network.
