Orthopedics and Traumatology

Diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system.

Department Overview

The Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology provides diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system.

The department treats conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons in patients of all age groups, using modern and minimally invasive techniques.

Diseases and Conditions

The department diagnoses and treats:

  • Traumatic injuries and fractures
    acute injuries of bones and joints.
  • Degenerative joint diseases
    osteoarthritis and arthrosis with reduced mobility.
  • Sports injuries
    injuries of ligaments, tendons, and muscles.
  • Congenital musculoskeletal conditions
    deformities and developmental disorders.
  • Bone and soft tissue tumors
    benign and malignant lesions.
  • Spine and limb deformities
    Scoliosis, kyphosis, deformities of the foot and limb axis.
  • Chronic pain conditions
    Pain in joints, back and musculoskeletal system.

Diagnostics

The department uses modern diagnostic methods for precise assessment of musculoskeletal diseases and injuries.

Detailed clinical assessment that includes medical history, evaluation of symptoms, physical examination, and assessment of mobility, pain, joint stability, muscle strength, and range of motion.

Basic imaging method used for diagnosis of fractures, joint degeneration, deformities, and other bone changes.

Detailed visualization of bones and joints, particularly useful in complex fractures, trauma, and preoperative planning.

Advanced imaging method for precise assessment of ligaments, tendons, cartilage, muscles, menisci, spinal structures, and soft tissue tumors.

Used for assessment of muscles, tendons, ligaments, bursae, and fluid collections, especially in sports injuries and inflammatory conditions.

Blood tests used to assess inflammation, infection, metabolic disorders, rheumatologic conditions, and preparation for surgery.

Performed when indicated in patients with osteoporosis, repeated fractures, or reduced bone strength.

Treatments

The department provides both conservative and surgical treatment, adapted according to the patient’s condition:

  • Fracture treatment
    management of simple and complex fractures with immobilization, fixation, or surgical reconstruction.
  • Arthroscopic surgery
    minimally invasive procedures on the knee, shoulder, ankle, and other joints, used for injuries of ligaments, menisci, cartilage, and tendons.
  • Joint replacement surgery
    implantation of hip, knee, or shoulder prostheses in patients with severe degenerative disease and reduced mobility.
  • Treatment of sports injuries
    reconstruction and repair of damaged ligaments, tendons, and muscles, especially in athletes and physically active patients.
  • Spinal and trauma surgery
    treatment of traumatic and degenerative conditions of the spine and musculoskeletal system.
  • Correction of deformities
    treatment of congenital and acquired deformities of bones and joints.
  • Tumor surgery
    surgical treatment of benign and malignant tumors of bones and soft tissues.
  • Conservative treatment
    medication therapy, joint injections, immobilization, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation.

Technology and Equipment

The department is equipped with modern technology for diagnosis, surgical treatment, and rehabilitation:

  • Modern operating theatres
    equipped for safe performance of orthopedic and trauma procedures, with continuous monitoring and anesthesiology support.
  • Arthroscopic systems
    high-resolution equipment for minimally invasive joint surgery.
  • CT and MRI diagnostics
    advanced imaging systems for detailed assessment and precise planning of treatment.
  • Digital X-ray systems
    fast and accurate imaging of bones and joints.
  • Ultrasound equipment
    detailed evaluation of joints, muscles, tendons, and soft tissues.
  • Orthopedic implants and fixation systems
    modern plates, screws, prostheses, and fixation devices for fracture treatment and joint reconstruction.
  • Rehabilitation equipment
    systems and aids for early mobilization, physiotherapy, and recovery after surgery or injury.
