Helios Hospital Munich West - Departments

The Department of Adult and Pediatric Orthopedics, Traumatology, Hand Surgery, Sports Orthopedics offers the full range of medical services to the patients suffering from musculoskeletal diseases and injuries of any severity. The department's doctors have a perfect command of both conservative and surgical treatment methods. Whenever possible, the specialists try to avoid surgery, but if conservative treatment does not give good results, the doctors still resort to surgery. The department keeps pace with medical innovations, and thus most of the operations on the musculoskeletal system are performed using minimally invasive techniques. After such surgical procedures, the patient can recover in the shortest possible time. The key focus of clinical practice is on joint replacement surgery. The department successfully performs surgery to replace knee, hip, shoulder, elbow and wrist joints, including revision surgery to replace endoprostheses. The department's medical team works in strict accordance with the requirements of the German and European professional societies.
