Specialized in: adult and pediatric traumatology About the Department of Adult and Pediatric Traumatology at University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Traumatology at the University Hospital Rechts der Isar Munich offers the full range of services in this medical field and is one of the leading medical facilities in Germany. The department enjoys an excellent reputation in Munich and Upper Bavaria. The department's doctors specialize in the treatment of bone fractures, soft tissue injuries and joint diseases. The specialists of the medical facility are distinguished by exceptional competence in the treatment of polytrauma and high severity injuries. In addition, the department's traumatologists have a wealth of experience in the treatment of patients with abnormally healing bone fractures. The department provides emergency medical care around the clock. It has state-of-the-art technical resources to assess the patient's condition with trauma during the admission to the department and to provide the most effective treatment. All therapeutic measures meet the requirements of the current treatment guidelines of the German Trauma Society. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Peter Biberthaler.
The department has 40 beds, two operating rooms for the surgical treatment of musculoskeletal injuries and one specialized operating room for the treatment of hand injuries. The operating rooms have state-of-the-art diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, which ensures optimal results even in severe clinical cases. The department provides medical care to more than 2,300 inpatients and more than 23,000 outpatients every year. All medical interventions are performed at the highest level of university medicine.
The department admits not only adults, but also children with various injuries. The experienced doctors with deep knowledge of pediatric anatomy take care of the health of young patients. When planning a treatment regimen, the age of the child is always taken into account, since it is important for the department's specialists not only to save him from injury, but also to ensure normal physical development after therapy.
