Diseases or deformities of the musculoskeletal system affect leisure time, sport and work. The Orthopedic University Hospital makes their patients mobile again: Painless mobility and physical resilience can be restored thanks to state-of-the-art methods.
Artificial Knee Joints
Endoprostheses are so successful today that they reliably restore the ability to walk in the event of arthrosis. At the knee, most patients use a standard prosthesis that replaces the entire knee joint. Rarer are small slide prostheses or large, axle-guided joints.
Spinal Surgery
Almost every person suffers at some point from pain in the spine. Often the intervertebral discs are affected. All necessary interventions, from small intervertebral disk operations to large stiffening of multiple vertebral bodies, are made at the University Hospital Tübingen. Even severe deformities in children, adolescents and adults are treated with us.
tumor orthopedics
Orthopedic tumors can be benign and harmless, or malignant and dangerous. We clarify what kind of tumor is present and what kind of treatment is required together with the experts of the Sarcoma Center.
Rheumatoid orthopedics experts
Rheumatism can affect all joints and cause pain and severe deformities. In addition to drug therapy, surgery is often required, e.g. Artificial joints, distances of the mucous membrane of the joints and occasionally veins of joints. Therein the Oerthopädische hospital has decades of experience.
Pediatric Surgery - Highest Requirements
Our little patients, who come to us especially with illnesses on the hips and the feet, are particularly close to the heart. Our experts recommend if treatment with physiotherapy and splints is possible or if surgery is required.
