Ankle prosthesis


For ongoing Sprungelenkes of osteoarthritis is often a fusion operation. This is a significant movement and also a strain of the adjacent joints through the amended motion. Despite these glaring drawbacks appeared stiffening operation as a method of choice because of the hitherto only partially satisfactory results with the use of artificial ankle.

hintegra_192x200 The design has now been clearly developed with the aim of improving long-term results:

Unikondylärer knee replacement after Repicci

Arthrosis, ie the premature wear of the articular surface leads to
Destruction of the cartilage layer in the healthy knee. If the conservative 89f9c4f6d1
Treatments and a cartilage therapy is no longer sufficient to remain in some cases only the possibility of a joint replacement, depending on the degree of cartilage destruction as part of prosthesis or total prosthesis.
These treatment procedures differ in the technology, but both have a very high success rate.

Hüftoberflächenersatz (McMinn)


When Hüftoberflächenersatz the injured joint überkront head only and not - as in the hip Totalendoprothese (hip-TEP) - together with the legs neck away.

The procedure is similar to the crowns on a tooth and bone is much more economical than the standard prosthesis. This aspect is especially for young patients, which in later years with a re-intervention and a change of prosthesis must expect significant.

Nucleoplastie

nucleoplastie-small What does Nucleoplastie?

When Nucleoplastie is a minimally invasive procedure to treat spine-related back pain and leg pain. Treat herniated discs are smaller or Bandscheibenvorwölbungen the fixed Fasering of the disc is not broken, and thus an open surgical procedure with surgical removal of vertebral material is not accessible. The principle here is based on a minimal shrinkage of the jelly-like spinal nucleus. Due to the shrinkage effect occurring withdraws to the back for spinal disc back vorgewölbte, restricted the nerve is relieved, leg pain and back pain from the sound.

Racz Catheter

Racz-catheter-klein From the USA since there is a 10-year proven method, the most common and effective back pain
permanently fought - and all without open surgery. The well-known scientists and pain specialist Prof. Gabor Racz has the solution for acute and chronic spinal problems discovered. A specially developed flexible catheter allows pain the first time, the pain directly on the nerve root to combat. This will take the drugs without detours targeted at the pain center.

X-STOP

Over a lifetime, the water content from a disc. This reduces the spinal tissue with time its elasticity, is brittle and shrinks by the continued pressure in the height.

xSTOP

As a result, tissues can be slipped into the spinal canal or penetrate the nerves exit through holes in the vertebral height reduction specialist will be narrowed. In conjunction with bony attachments in the spinal canal, for example by hypertrophy of the vertebral joints leads to the narrowing of the vertebral canal, to the painful Spinalkanalstenose.

Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation

knorpeltransplantationThis fully arthroscopic procedure, known as autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), is a special form of cartilage replacement therapy for the knee and ankle in which the patient's own chondrocytes (cartilage cells) are cultured in a laboratory and then re-implanted in the body. A small sample of cartilage tissue is first removed arthroscopically from a non-load-bearing area of cartilage in the knee and then sent to a special laboratory for isolation and in vitro cultivation.
