About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Orthopedics, Trauma Surgery, Foot Surgery at the University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus Dresden offers the full range of diagnostics, conservative and surgical treatment of musculoskeletal diseases and injuries. The department is a certified Endoprosthetics Center – more than 1,000 primary joint replacement surgeries are performed here annually. The surgeons of the Endoprosthetics Center also specialize in particularly complex clinical cases and revision procedures for the replacement of previously implanted artificial joints. In addition, the department has the status of the interregional Trauma Center certified in accordance with the standards of the German Trauma Society. The department has also been awarded a Certificate of Excellence from the German Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (DAF) in the field of foot surgery. A separate area of clinical activity is the treatment of diseases, injuries and congenital malformations of the musculoskeletal system in children. Depending on the severity of the clinical case, both conservative and surgical techniques are used in the treatment of orthopedic pathologies in children. The department's medical team prefers sparing low-traumatic surgery, while open operations are performed only if other therapeutic options are ineffective. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Klaus-Dieter Schaser.
The department's orthopedists pay special attention to the treatment of primary and secondary musculoskeletal tumors. The department most often deals with the treatment of patients with bone tumors, bone metastases and sarcomas. The specialists perform tumor resection surgery followed by bone and soft tissue reconstruction with the use of biological materials, endoprostheses, etc. Conservative therapeutic measures are carried out in collaboration with oncologists, radiation therapists and other specialists. Whenever possible, tumor resection surgery is performed using minimally invasive surgical techniques, which significantly speeds up and facilitates the recovery process after the intervention.
The department also successfully treats shoulder and elbow diseases. The department's medical team specializes in the treatment of shoulder and elbow arthrosis, rotator cuff tear, shoulder joint instability, impingement syndrome, calcific tendinitis, frozen shoulder and other pathologies. At the early stages of the disease, it is often possible to avoid surgery and provide conservative treatment, including drug therapy, manual therapy, physiotherapy, therapeutic exercises, electrotherapy and other techniques. If surgical treatment is indicated for the patient, surgeons always strive to perform arthroscopic or minimally invasive interventions that exclude extensive skin and soft tissue incisions.
The team of traumatologists of the medical facility has vast experience in the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries, including those of high severity. The department deals with the treatment of bone fractures, traumatic brain injuries, ankle sprains, distal radius fractures, dislocations and other traumatic lesions.
An integral part of the department's clinical practice is foot and ankle surgery. The specialists in this medical field admit patients with foot injuries, ankle and toe arthrosis, acute and chronic inflammatory ankle diseases, foot bone congenital malformations, compression syndromes, foot tumors and diabetic foot syndrome. The department's doctors use in their work an individual approach to each clinical case and select the optimal treatment methods based on the diagnostic results of a particular patient. The goal of any treatment is to relieve pain, restore foot function and patient's mobility.
The team of pediatric orthopedists provides treatment of the full range of musculoskeletal diseases and injuries in children and adolescents. The medical facility carries out conservative and surgical treatment of shoulder and elbow pathologies, spinal diseases and chronic back pain, O-shaped and X-shaped deformities of the lower extremities, leg length discrepancy, hip and knee diseases, foot deformities and diseases. The specialists have particular expertise in the treatment of musculoskeletal tumors in children. The department's doctors get along well with young patients and support them in every possible manner on their way to recovery.
