Johannes Hoffmann (born 1968) is a German medical specialist in vascular surgery. Furthermore, he is professor and director of the clinic for vascular surgery and phlebology of the Elisabeth-Hospital Essen as well as head of the clinic for vascular surgery Essen. He is especially well known for his works on the key research areas of dialysis-shunt-surgery, hybrid surgery, endovascular procedures, postoperative management of coagulation, sepsis and ischemia.
Biography[edit]
After Hoffmann had finished his simultaneous studies in the subjects transverse flute and human medicine at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich and the University of Music and Performing Arts Munich, he worked as doctor and scientist at the clinic for surgery and polyclinic of the LMU-Großhadern from 1995 until 2012.[1] In 1996 he became scientific assistant at the surgical clinic of the university of Munich. From 1999 on he completed multiple research stays at the institute for clinical and experimental surgery of the Saarland University, where he had been senior physician as of 2003. In 2002 Hoffmann performed his first independent transplantations of kidney and pancreas. In 2003 he became specialist for surgery and received the additional title of surgical intensive care medicine and emergency medicine. From 2009 until 2011 he was deputy head of vascular surgery at the Klinikum Großhadern.[1] In 2009 he became medical specialist for vascular surgery and received an extraordinary professorship at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. In 2010 Hoffmann became medical specialist for visceral surgery and special visceral surgery. From 2011 until 2012 he led the visceral surgical science LMU as well as the section of visceral surgery at the LMU-Munich as executive senior physician.[1] In 2012 he awarded the title of endovascular surgeon (DGG) and was entrusted with the management of the new established section of visceral surgery at the university hospital Essen. Since 2014 Hoffmann has been head of the clinic for vascular surgery and phlebology in Essen.[1][2][3]
Scientific contribution[edit]
Hoffmannscientifi work is focussed on ischemia Reperfusion Injury, Sepsis, Transplantation, vascular access surgery, bypass surgery, microperfusion in arteriosclerosis and diabetes.[4] The focal areas of Hoffmann's scientific work as vascular surgeon are the endo-vascular aortic surgery and complex revision procedures. As an expert he is operating for the arbitration body of the medical association of Nordrhein, the arbitration body of the state chamber of medicine in Munich as well as for different courts. He is author of numerous publications and teaching book and co-editor of the journal "Gefäßchirurgie" (visceral surgery) and "Gefäßmedizin Scan" (vascular medicine scan).[4]
