With a much more sensitive diagnosis, an increasing number of rheumatic diseases can be diagnosed today.
Due to the improved and earlier therapy (so-called "window of opportunity") a remission or low disease activity can be achieved in many affected patients.
In young adulthood, patients often enjoy good health, complete vocational training and start a family.
However, some of those affected suffer from late effects of the disease or immunosuppressive therapy. On the other hand, reactivation of the underlying disease can occur even many years after successful treatment. Therefore, a regular medical consultation is necessary in the long term. While care in childhood and adolescence is provided in the paediatric clinic, in young adulthood medical issues are increasingly added to the scope of duties of internal medicine.
In order to ensure the maintenance of remission or low disease activity during the transition and to take into account age- and disease-specific to answer questions adequately, we offer an interdisciplinary Consultation hours of the Pediatric and Adolescent Clinic and Medical Clinic 3 - Rheumatology and Immunology.
In our interdisciplinary consultation hours we offer:
