About the department
According to the Focus magazine, the Department of Adult and Pediatric Orthopedics, Trauma Surgery, Foot Surgery and Hand Surgery at the Charite University Hospital Berlin is one of the best medical facilities in Germany in its areas of specialization!
The department offers its patients modern conservative and surgical treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system. The department's priority specialties include knee and hip surgery, including primary and revision arthroplasty, surgical interventions on the spine, shoulder and elbow surgery, operations for musculoskeletal malignancies, and treatment of traumatic injuries of varying severity. The department enjoys a reputation as one of the largest and most reputable medical complexes of its kind in Germany, where more than 8,200 inpatients are treated every year. The department's medical team successfully performs more than 8,500 surgical procedures each year in 8 high-tech operating rooms, which testifies to the excellent qualifications and vast experience of the healthcare facility's specialists. The department also provides medical care for young patients with special emphasis on the treatment of hip dysplasia, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, Perthes disease, scoliosis, osteomyelitis, and benign bone neoplasms. The medical institution has exceptional competence in the treatment of bone and soft tissue sarcomas – certification as a specialized center by the German Cancer Society (DKG). In addition, the department has the status of an interregional Trauma Center in the Berlin and Brandenburg area, certified by the German Trauma Society (DGU). The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Carsten Perka.
The department provides the full range of conservative and surgical treatment of knee pathologies with the very latest medical developments. Of particular interest to the department's specialists are arthroscopic procedures and partial and total knee replacement surgery. Patients are cared for by a highly qualified team of 15 specialized surgeons. With advanced knowledge, expert experience, and the most advanced surgical technologies, the specialists perform more than 2,000 knee surgical procedures annually. The majority of procedures are performed for knee arthrosis (gonarthrosis). As the pathology progresses, the cartilaginous tissue of the knee joint is destroyed, which threatens impaired mobility and loss of limb support, up to disability. The treatment plan is developed on an individual basis after studying anamnesis and a comprehensive diagnosis: in the early stages, the orthopedists of the department use only conservative treatments or perform arthroscopic procedures, and in the advanced stages, partial or total knee arthroplasty is prescribed. Partial arthroplasty involves replacement of the part of the joint affected by the degenerative process. It is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anesthesia. The hospital stay is 6-8 days. In the case of total knee replacement, the surgeon replaces all of its elements, both the medial (inner) and lateral (outer) parts of the knee joint. Total knee replacement is also minimally invasive. The hospital stay for a total knee replacement is 7-10 days. After arthroplasty, a highly professional team of physiotherapists works with the patient, whose task is to restore mobility in the postoperative period.
The medical facility has an excellent record in hip surgery, and operations for this range of pathologies are performed here on an almost daily basis. The department provides medical care for patients with hip arthrosis (coxarthrosis), femoral head avascular necrosis, hip dysplasia, femoroacetabular impingement, hip labral injuries, acetabular and femoral neck fractures, hip inflammation, and other conditions. The department's orthopedic surgeons have access to the full range of modern treatment options, from physiotherapy to arthroscopic procedures and hip replacement surgery. Before prescribing treatment, the patient undergoes a complete diagnostic examination. Throughout the therapeutic process, the department's specialists strive to preserve hip joint function and eliminate pain with the least invasive treatment: conservative therapy or arthroscopy is considered first, with hip replacement surgery as the last resort. Hip arthroplasty is performed here using minimally invasive techniques and computer navigation, which is a great advantage for the patient.
The medical team of the department is competent in the diagnosis and treatment of children's orthopedic diseases and injuries, including their consequences in adulthood. In the case of such pathologies, the doctors strive not only to cure the young patient, but also to ensure the normal development of the growing organism. The most common conditions in the department's clinical practice are hip dysplasia, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, Perthes disease, foot deformities, axial deformities of the lower extremities, and leg length discrepancy. Therapeutic options in pediatric orthopedics and traumatology include drug therapy, physiotherapy, and surgical treatment. Almost all operations are performed using minimally traumatic surgical techniques. The treatment plan is always developed on an individual basis, taking into account the specifics of the clinical case.
The department has a competent team of specialists in foot surgery. The doctors of this profile consult patients with traumatic injuries and congenital and acquired foot deformities. Special experience has been gained in the treatment of severe forms of ankle arthrosis and rheumatoid arthritis with ankle involvement. Arthroscopic procedures and arthroplasty are successfully performed here to treat the above conditions. In addition, the department's specialists are highly professional in the treatment of foot dysplasia. The healthcare facility also provides medical care to patients with diabetic foot syndrome, ankle cartilage lesions, and sports foot injuries.
Hand surgery is also an important part of the daily clinical practice of the department's medical team. This area is responsible for the comprehensive care of patients with acute injuries of the hand, wrist and elbow joints, as well as degenerative pathologies of the wrist joint and hand deformities. Treatment is provided in both inpatient and outpatient settings, depending on the severity of the clinical case. Surgical procedures for hand pathologies and injuries are performed using arthroscopic and microsurgical techniques.
