About the Department of Adult and Pediatric Orthopedics, Traumatology at Medicana International Ankara Hospital

The Department of Adult and Pediatric Orthopedics and Traumatology at the Medicana International Ankara Hospital offers the full range of diagnostics and treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system. The special areas of specialization include spinal surgery and endoprosthetics. The high-precision medical equipment, robotic surgical devices and navigation surgery systems combined with the unique competence of the department’s doctors provide excellent treatment results of pathologies of any severity. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Alpaslan Şenköylü, who ranks among the best specialists in Turkey in orthopedics and spinal surgery.

One of the priority focuses of the department is spinal surgery. Here are available all the latest conservative and surgical techniques for the elimination of spinal pain, posture disorders and development of accompanying problems with the joints, as well as neurological symptoms, which may occur at the progressive stages of the disease.

In addition, the department is proud of its outstanding achievements in the field of knee and hip replacement surgery. The department's surgeons perform both partial and total joint replacement using sparing minimally invasive techniques and modern endoprostheses made of metal or biological materials similar to human tissues. The final stage of treatment after surgery is physiotherapy. The patient performs a set of physical exercises under the guidance of the physician. It is also possible to use hardware therapy to restore mobility, for example, after knee replacement doctors use a special device, which moves the patient's knee when he is lying in bed.

  • Spinal surgery (in close cooperation with the Departments of Neurosurgery, Neurology, Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation)
