Orthopedics – treatment in the best hospitals

Orthopedic services require highly professional physicians and well-equipped hospitals. It is quite difficult to treat musculoskeletal diseases using conservative methods. To fully restore mobility and working capacity, the patients often require orthopedic surgery and long-term rehabilitation. You can undergo treatment in the best hospitals in the world in order to get a good result and avoid complications.

What cases may require the help of foreign doctors?

The musculoskeletal diseases cause chronic pain, limit human activities, significantly reduce the quality of life. They are prone to progression and their treatment is very difficult. There are no pills, which could recover the joints, bones or spine.

The orthopedic diseases are often treated using surgical techniques. Orthopedic surgery is well developed abroad. The patients mostly contact the physician in Germany, Israel or other developed countries to receive orthopedic services in the following fields:

• sports injuries (meniscal injuries, knee cruciate ligament tears, common shoulder dislocation, and others);
• knee and hip arthrosis, which in advanced stage requires an artificial endoprosthesis implantation;
• complex injuries and their consequences;
• congenital abnormalities of the musculoskeletal system in children;
• spinal deformities, including scoliosis;
• aseptic bone necrosis;
• osteoporosis and pathological bone fractures;
• bone tumors;
• orthopedic foot disorders (hallux valgus, hammer toes, flat feet).

People mostly go abroad in the cases when they need the high-tech medical care or want to undergo a comprehensive rehabilitation after various diseases, injuries or surgeries.

Why is it better to undergo treatment abroad?

Despite of the fact that patients can also find orthopedists, undergo surgery and conservative treatment in their home country, many of them still prefer to undergo treatment abroad. So, what is the reason?

The fact is that orthopedics is a high-tech medical field. It requires a good medical equipment and physician’s professionalism. The imaging of bone and cartilage structures, ligaments and tendons requires the high-precision diagnostics.

The benefits of treatment abroad are the following:

• The surgeons perform modern surgical procedures to replace joints through minimal incisions. It reduces the rehabilitation period, postoperative pain, risk of complications (blood loss, wound infection).
• The joints are replaced only with the modern endoprostheses, which serve for decades. In most patients, they provide full motion loads and do not wear out until the end of life.
• The surgeons use the very latest chondrocyte culture (cartilage cells) surgeries and transplantation of the cartilage grown in the laboratory. It is an expensive, but effective method for the restoration of the articular surfaces. It is used only in a small number of hospitals in Germany, Switzerland and other developed countries.
• The preference is always given to minimally invasive operations. They are more sparing, better tolerated by the patient. A camera with lighting and manipulators is inserted inside the joint. With their help, the physician performs the necessary procedures.

The operations abroad are more effective and safer. Every patient is provided with a comprehensive care. After the surgery, one can undergo rehabilitation, which will help a person to recover faster and return to an active lifestyle.
