How program is carried out

Preliminary preparation for hip replacement includes quitting smoking and drinking alcohol; cancelling non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (diclofenac, ibuprofen); cancelling anticoagulants (warfarin); normalization of body mass, if possible.

Preoperative examination, including consultation with an anesthesiologist and necessary related specialists, takes 1-2 days. According to its results, the most suitable endoprosthesis is selected.

Hip replacement. The operation is performed under general anesthesia. The patient lies on his side, the affected leg is bent and fixed in this position. The surgeon makes an incision 15-20 cm long, minimally traumatizing the muscles and nerve endings. Through this incision, miniature instruments are inserted to remove the damaged joint structures. Healthy bone is adjusted for further reliable implant fixation.

The surgeon installs a femoral stem in the center of the upper part of the femur. Ball-shaped head of the joint is fixed on it. The surgeon also implants a special liner that facilitates movement of the leg and protects the structures of the prosthesis. After the primary fixation of the prosthesis components, the doctor assesses the joint range of motion, as well as the length and symmetry of the lower limb.

The implant is fixed with cement or cementless method. The doctor treats the operating field with antiseptics, conducts its final revision and sutures the wound layer by layer. A temporary drainage is installed in the joint, and a bandage is applied on top.

Postoperative care. During the first day after the intervention the patient stays in the intensive care unit, under round-the-clock medical supervision. After that, with a smooth course of the postoperative period, the patient is transferred to a regular ward and the drains are removed. The range of motion expands gradually, from light toes movements to walking. Walking with the use of walking aids is allowed in 3-5 days after the operation.

Rehabilitation. The rehabilitation program begins after the transfer of the patient from the intensive care unit to a regular ward. It includes physical activity (from exercises in bed in the early days to exercises in the gym), physiotherapy, massage (including lymphatic drainage), exercises in the water. The rehabilitation program is constantly being adjusted according to the needs of the patient.

About the department

The Department of Adult and Pediatric Traumatology, Orthopedic Surgery, Hand and Foot Surgery at the Municipal Hospital Karlsruhe offers the full range of modern services to the patients with musculoskeletal diseases and injuries. The key areas of specialization include conservative and surgical treatment of injuries and degenerative changes in the limbs, joints, pelvis and spine. The department is certified by the German Trauma Society (DGU) and has an SAV certificate, which indicates the excellent achievements of the medical facility in the treatment of injuries of any severity. The department performs most surgical interventions using minimally invasive and endoscopic surgical techniques, thanks to which the patients can regain their mobility and return to their usual daily life in the shortest possible time. The department's experienced surgeons perform more than 6,000 operations annually, including particularly complex ones. About 3,000 inpatients and more than 20,000 outpatients receive medical care here every year. The department has 90 beds. The Head Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Christof Müller.

The department is the leading interregional Trauma Center in North Baden, therefore it has unique experience and the highest qualifications in the treatment of patients with severe and multiple injuries. The Central Emergency Care Unit guarantees multidisciplinary and competent care for the patients with minor and severe injuries. Both adults and children can receive medical care here.

The priority focus of the department's clinical activity is the treatment of diseases of the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle joints. For this purpose, arthroscopic surgery is widely used – minimally invasive intra-articular interventions. The department also successfully performs joint replacement surgery. When performing joint replacement surgery, the department's specialists use the very latest and proven surgical implantation techniques, as well as high-quality prostheses from well-known world manufacturers. Computer navigation allows the doctors to perform operations with maximum accuracy, while minimally invasive techniques ensure sparing surgery and a rapid rehabilitation. In addition to the total joint replacement with an artificial prosthesis, the department's surgeons also perform technically complex revision interventions, which are sometimes required during the long-term use of the implanted endoprosthesis and its wear.

The department also performs all modern types of interventions to restore cartilage tissue. Microfracturing and autologous chondrocyte transplantation using special matrices are among the most popular. The interventions are performed arthroscopically, usually under local anesthesia. Both therapeutic techniques help the doctors to effectively eliminate cartilage defects, thereby alleviating pain and ceasing degenerative processes in the joints.

The specialists have more than 10 years of experience in the field of surgical treatment of spinal pathologies. The doctors most often deal with degenerative spinal changes and injuries caused by accidents. With appropriate indications, a sparing thoracoscopic technique is used during the surgical treatment. The range of operations varies from spinal fusion to intervertebral disc replacement in young patients.

The department also includes the Section of Physiotherapy, whose specialists carry out physiotherapy procedures immediately after operations, as well as on an outpatient basis. Such an approach allows the doctors to achieve a rapid mobilization of the patient after the orthopedic surgical procedure.

The department's medical team provides each patient with highly competent medical assistance, pays personal attention and care, and creates the most comfortable conditions for their stay. The specialists strive to find an optimal solution for the patient and provide him with the most sparing treatment.

The department's main clinical focuses include:

  • Traumatology
    • Treatment of injuries of any severity in adults and children (in the certified Center of the German Trauma Society)
  • Orthopedic surgery
    • Arthroscopic interventions on the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle joints
