Shock in the clinic on the right side of the Isar: Another top doctor dead - clinic boss comments. Professor Hanns-Henning Eckstein succumbed to a serious illness.

He headed the vascular surgery clinic at the Rechts der Isar Clinic for almost 20 years. He was one of the most experienced experts in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms - these are potentially life-threatening enlargements of the main artery. With Eckstein, the renowned model hospital of the Technical University of Munich has lost its third clinic director in just a few years.
