When women notice a breast lump, it evokes a serious concern at first. Nevertheless, causes of breast changes or lumps are numerous. In a very rare case, this is a cancer.

At Helios Amper-Hospital Dachau, the head physician of the Clinic for Gynecology and Obstetrics of the Upper Bavarian Hospital Association, Dr. Sabine Keim, removes lymph nodes in the area of the abdominal aorta and the female pelvis with robotic assistance. This minimally invasive surgical technique is performed using a state-of-the-art robotic system and is considered one of the latest advances in surgical gynecology.

The gynecology team at Helios Hospital München West can be pleased about three awards at once. The German Cancer Society recommends the facility both for the treatment of breast cancer and for cancers of the female genitals. The Working Group for Cervical Pathology and Colposcopy also recommends treatment at the Pasing Women's Clinic due to the particularly high quality standards in the early detection of changes in the cervix and external genitalia.

There is a change in medical leadership at the Breast Center of Helios Hospital Bad Saarow. As of June 1, Dr. med. Grigorij Nesterov will assume the position of chief physician at the Breast Center and continue the existing commitment to excellent breast health. He succeeds experienced mammography expert Dr. med. Harry Brunzlow who is taking well-deserved retirement at the end of May after 21 years as chief physician.
