About the department

The Department of Joint Surgery at the Schoen Clinic Duesseldorf provides the full range of medical services in its area of specialization. A team of highly qualified orthopedists with extensive clinical experience performs surgical procedures on joints of any complexity. The department's surgeons operate on patients with hip, knee, shoulder, elbow, and ankle diseases. The surgeons are committed to providing each patient with the most effective and sparing treatment possible, and therefore all surgical procedures are performed using arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgical techniques. In the advanced stages of knee and hip arthrosis, the department's doctors perform joint replacement surgeries in collaboration with the specialists from the certified Arthroplasty Center (EndoCert). The department's medical team always devotes sufficient time to personal consultations and carefully examines the patient's clinical case because surgery is the last-line treatment. The department's doctors follow high international standards of medical care and current clinical protocols in their work, which facilitates excellent results. The Head Physician of the department is PD Dr. med. Hinnerk Baecker.

The department offers a wide range of services for patients with knee diseases. Of particular interest to the department's team of orthopedists is the provision of medical care to patients with knee arthrosis, patellar instability, knee cartilage lesions, cruciate ligament ruptures, meniscal tears, and O-shaped and X-shaped deformities of the lower extremities. The specialists mostly treat patients with knee arthrosis, which causes gradual cartilage destruction. As arthrosis progresses, patients suffer from severe pain and serious movement restrictions. The department's orthopedists use only conservative treatments for the early stages of knee arthrosis, such as therapeutic exercises, physiotherapy, and drug therapy with painkillers. The second-line treatment may include arthroscopic procedures, corrective osteotomies, or surgery to correct cartilage defects. If these surgical procedures do not give the desired results, the department's doctors decide to perform knee arthroplasty. The specialists may perform partial or total knee replacement surgery using low-traumatic surgical techniques on an inpatient basis. Already on the day of the operation, the patients get to their feet with the use of auxiliary aids, and experienced physiotherapists constantly work with them in the postoperative period.

The department's team of doctors is highly skilled in using advanced techniques to correct knee cartilage defects, which often help patients avoid arthroplasty. The department's surgeons successfully perform surgical procedures such as chondroplasty (physical correction of cartilage defects), microfracture (surgery to create tiny holes in the bone to stimulate the growth of new cartilage), cartilage allograft transfer (MCI technique), and autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT technique). All of the above surgical interventions are performed using minimally traumatic arthroscopic techniques. The optimal surgical option for the patient is determined based on the severity of damage to the knee cartilage tissue.

The department is also in demand for surgery to treat hip diseases. The surgeons at the medical facility almost daily operate on patients with hip arthrosis, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, hip impingement, and hip dislocations. Hip arthrosis can be treated with conservative therapy (in the early stages), femoral osteotomy, or cartilage tissue transplantation. The last-line treatment is hip arthroplasty, an operation to partially or totally replace the patient's own joint with an artificial prosthesis. Surgery for avascular necrosis of the femoral head, hip impingement, and hip dislocation are usually performed using arthroscopic techniques. The department performs hip arthroplasty and hip arthroscopic procedures on an inpatient basis.

The department's range of surgical options is complemented by the treatment of shoulder diseases such as arthrosis, avascular necrosis of the humeral head, frozen shoulder, shoulder tendonitis, biceps tendon ruptures, shoulder impingement, shoulder instability, and rotator cuff tears. For the treatment of these pathologies, the department's orthopedists perform low-traumatic arthroscopic procedures, the results of which are comparable to those of classical open surgery.

  • Surgery for knee diseases
    • Surgery for knee arthrosis
