High-class medicine requires top-tier specialists, and this is exactly what the team of the Department of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery at the Sana Clinical Complex<\/a> in Duesseldorf consists of. The doctors of the department have achieved remarkable scientific successes, winning five prestigious awards at the 39th annual meeting of the German Society of Senology (DGS), held in Berlin in June 2019.<\/p>\n

“This is a significant achievement. No other department has reached such a level of recognition,” noted Professor Dr. Christoph Andree<\/a>, Chief Physician and Medical Director of the Sana Clinical Complex in Gerresheim<\/a>, one of the award winners, along with his team.<\/p>\n

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in industrialized countries, accounting for more than 30% of all cases of malignant tumors. In Germany, around 70,000 cases of breast cancer are diagnosed each year, with nearly 18,000 women dying from the disease (according to the German Cancer Society). The German Society of Senology (DGS) brings together medical and scientific disciplines focused on the health of the female breast and conducts research, training, and dissemination of knowledge about its normal and pathological functions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

“Our goal is to restore the quality of life of breast cancer patients in the gentlest and most natural way possible, using the latest scientific advancements,” explains Professor Andree<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The department has earned an outstanding national and international reputation in the fields of breast surgery, reconstructive microsurgery, lymphatic surgery, as well as aesthetic and reconstructive facial surgery. For instance, since 2013, under the leadership of Professor Andree, the International Mammological Congress (IBSD) has been held in D\u00fcsseldorf, which in 2019 brought together more than 600 doctors from 24 countries. This is the only interdisciplinary English-language congress in Germany dedicated to breast health issues.<\/p>\n

Since 2013, Professor Andree<\/a> has consistently been ranked among the best specialists in Germany in the field of breast surgery according to the authoritative Focus ranking. Performing over 1,200 surgeries per year, the clinic\u2019s team ensures that patients receive treatment based on cutting-edge medical and scientific standards. In the field of breast reconstruction using autologous tissue, Duesseldorf surgeons are among the top five clinics in Europe and set national standards in this area.<\/p>\n
