Trauma, Orthopedics, Endoprothetics and Hand Surgery at Helios
We want our patients to become mobile and pain-free again quickly. We create the conditions for this with precise preparation and modern, minimally invasive surgical methods that are gentle on the tissue and shorten the healing process.
Helios offers endoprosthetics and rehabilitation from a single source in one place. Instead of switching to a rehabilitation clinic after the operation, you continue the subsequent rehabilitation with us. Your operating physician is at your side from the consultation and decision on joint replacement to the operation and the completion of rehabilitation. We offer you also the ideal conditions to quickly get back on your feet with a new hip or knee joint.
The department headed by professor Kraft is one of the best orthope-dic practices in Germany. Its team provides diagnostic and treatment services across the entire spectrum of musculoskeletal disorders, in-cluding trauma, congenital joint dislocation, and acute and chronic spine and joint diseases, such as arthritis, carpal syndrome, as well as infections that affect bones and soft tissues, for example, in os-teomyelitis patients.
Trauma patients are treated in the Shock Trauma Unit by an interdis-ciplinary team consisting of anesthesiologists, traumatologists, and neurosurgeons. Spiral CT helps the attendant physicians to scan the entire body and quickly localize fractures and internal hemorrhages.
When it comes to joint diseases, modern technology and years of experience make minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery increasingly common. "Arthroscopic" means that surgical instruments and a tiny camera are inserted through two small incisions. The camera lets sur-geons see the inside of the joint and ensures surgical precision.
