Helios St. Elisabeth Clinic Hünfeld

Doctors use painless, highly effective methods to treat vascular diseases, making the medical center the most advanced in the region for varicose vein treatment. PIN-stripping and mini-phlebectomy under ultrasound control are inserted through a millimeter incision and don't require long rehabilitation.

The medical center specializes in treating early carcinomas using endoscopic methods. Modern equipment determines the boundaries of the formation and precisely cuts out the critical areas through a tiny cut. As a result, time is not wasted on long preparation, and the risk of infection is reduced.

Thanks to various surgical techniques, the hospital is considered one of the best centers in the region for the treatment of pelvic floor weakness and urinary incontinence. Highly experienced doctors perform laparoscopic colposuspension, TVT, vaginal plastic surgery, and mesh implantation in the pelvic area.

What is the primary focus of the expanded vascular surgery department at the clinic?

The department is heavily divided into an interventional/arterial branch for minimally invasive stent placements in peripheral arterial occlusive disease and a specialized venous/lymph center. The lymph center specifically utilizes complex physical decongestive therapy, combining manual lymphatic drainage and compression to treat severe lipedema and lymphedema.

The gastroenterology team focuses on early detection and endoscopic resection of gastrointestinal carcinomas, as well as the long-term management of chronic inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. They also treat acute pancreatic diseases and perform endoscopic gallstone removal using advanced imaging techniques.

The trauma, surgery, and orthopedics department specializes in sports traumatology, complex fracture management, and joint replacements (endoprosthetics) for the hip, knee, and shoulder. They also perform highly specialized arthroscopic surgeries for rotator cuff tears and meniscal lesions, aiming for rapid postoperative mobilization.

As part of the vascular surgery division, the lymph unit addresses severe lymphatic fluid retention that causes limb swelling by using a holistic, combined approach of manual drainage, movement therapy, and medical skin care. This targeted therapy prevents chronic tissue damage and significantly improves mobility in patients with lipedema or chronic venous insufficiency.

The hospital utilizes a multimodal pain therapy framework that includes targeted, image-guided nerve blocks and medication infusions directly at the nerve roots, particularly in the lumbar spine. This medical intervention is strictly combined with intensive physiotherapy and psychotherapeutic support to break the chronic pain cycle.

Surgeons primarily use minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques (keyhole surgery) for procedures involving the stomach, gallbladder, pancreas, and intestines. This approach drastically minimizes surgical trauma, reduces the risk of wound healing disorders, and accelerates the patient's overall recovery time.

Palliative medicine is structurally integrated within the Internal Medicine department to provide specialized symptom control and pain management for patients with advanced, incurable diseases. The multidisciplinary team focuses on improving quality of life, providing both medical stabilization and psychological support to patients and their families.

The cardiology division is equipped to rapidly diagnose acute cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and arrhythmias using advanced echocardiography and continuous telemetry monitoring. They act as the crucial first point of contact for acute chest pain, stabilizing patients before transferring them to a larger cardiac catheterization center if emergency bypass or stenting is required.

The ENT department operates as a specialized, affiliated doctor's ward, providing both conservative and surgical treatments for acute and chronic conditions of the head and neck. Procedures range from the surgical removal of nasal polyps and tonsils to the treatment of severe inner ear infections and hearing loss.

The interdisciplinary team merges the expertise of the vascular surgery and foot surgery units to aggressively treat diabetic foot syndrome and severe arterial blockages. By combining modern endovascular balloon dilations with localized surgical debridement, they restore blood flow and heal chronic ulcers, saving the extremity.
