The 'Brustzentrum der Universitätsmedizin Göttingen' treats more than 250 patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer a year. It is a team of experts of different medical disciplines, dedicated to give patient-centered care and cure on the best scientific standard. We offer diagnostic and pre-and postsurgery clinics and special clinics (genetic counselling, psycho-oncological support, follow-up, advanced tumor clinic). Diagnose is given mostly in one day only and surgery can be performed within one week. We prefere tumorectomy and sentinel-node-biopsy whenever possible, but offer breast-reconstruction as well. Our multidisciplinary tumor-board generates individual treatment plans for each patient, our protocols respect international guidelines and are regularly updated. Adjuvant therapy (Chemotherapy and Radiation) are given in the outpatient section of the Unit. Psycho-oncological and social support are offered. We take part in multi-centre studies and do research on endocrine regulation of breast cancer growth, targeted chemotherapy and resistence to antiestrogenic therapy. We organise conferences for cooperating physicians, for patients and public.
