Orthopedics and Traumatology
It is the branch of medicine in which treatment, follow-up, diagnosis of congenital, acquired or accidental bone-muscle diseases in the musculoskeletal system of each adult or child patient is done with using high and latest technological equipment.
It is the branch of medicine in which treatment and follow-up are carried out.
The orthopedics and traumatology department, which has specialized sub-branches and areas of special interest, achieves satisfactory results that can completely reverse the loss of movement function of the patient with its rich treatment and intervention methods.
Medical Services
Congenital or acquired lateral curvatures of the spine (scoliosis), anterior curvatures (kyphosis), fractures due to osteoporosis and spinal fractures due to accidents are treated.
- Scoliosis
- Kyphosis
- Spine Injuries
- Spinal Tumors and Infections
- Spine Arthrosis (calcification)
- Spondylolisthesis
- Spinal Stenosis
Problems such as SLAP lesion (biceps tendon damage), frozen shoulder, impingement (pain caused by bone elongation), shoulder joint dislocation are treated with arthroscopic (closed) or open surgical operations.
- Rotator cuff repair
- Fractures
- Shoulder joint arthrosis (calcification)
- Shoulder Prosthesis
- Muscle Tears and Compression
- Fractures
- Elbow joint arthrosis (calcification)
- Nerve entrapment
- Deformities
It deals with hand injuries that require vascular nerve repair, tendon repair, bone joint restoration. It also deals with trigger finger, polydactyly (6 fingers), syndactyly (adhesive fingers), hand deformities (tendon transfer) due to CP sequelae.
- Vascular Nerve Tendon Repair
- If the deformity is surgical
- Nerve compressions, endoscopic carpal tunnel surgery
- Dupuytren's disease
- Thumb calcification surgery
It deals with the treatment of diseases such as bone avascular necrosis, congenital hip dislocations, Impingement, (Bone compression), Labral defect, Osteoconphral defect, Osteoarthritis (Calcification) with open surgery or closed (arthroscopic) surgery. In this section, partial and total joint prosthesis is successfully applied. Total joint prosthesis; It aims to replace the damaged joint surface with artificial materials, to restore stability to the joint with function and to eliminate existing pain.
- Congenital Hip Dislocation
- Hip Fractures
- Hip Joint Calcification (Coxarthrosis)
- Hip Replacement
Injuries of areas such as the meniscus, articular cartilage, anterior cruciate ligament and capsule that occur in the knee joint, septic arthritis (intra-articular inflammation), synovitis (thickening of the joint membrane), calcification of the knee joint and fractures occurring in the joint are treated with arthroscopic surgery. In this section, it is aimed to replace the knee prosthesis with artificial materials, to restore function and stability to the joint and to eliminate existing pain.
- Meniscus Tears
- Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair
- Knee Calcification (Gonarthrosis)
- Knee arthroplasty
- Cartilage Problems
It deals with the treatment of ingrown nails, toe deformities, surgical treatment of hallux valgus (big toe protrusion), os trigonum (ankle) syndrome, osteochondral damage in the talus dome, impingement synovitis and tenosynovitis in the tibia distal end anterior.
- Hallux Valgus
- Hallux Varus
- Hallux Rigidus
- Freiberg's Disease
- Little Finger Deformities
- Foot and Ankle Arthritis
- Ankle Instability
- Achilles Tendon Ruptures
Congenital hip dislocation, Perthes disease, clubfoot sequelae, Brachial plexus damage, gait disorders, Torticollis, foot problems and spinal disorders are treated.
- CP Sequelae
- Clubfoot
- Developmental Hip Dysplasia (Congenital Hip Dislocation)
- Congenital Paralysis
- Child Fractures
- Flat Foot
Treatment is performed for benign or malignant tumors that develop in an area of the locomotor system such as muscle, bone, tendon and joint.
- Surgery of benign and malignant soft tissue tumors
- Surgery of benign and malignant bone tumors
Methods in deformity surgery differ according to the age group, location and severity of the deterioration. In bone deformity surgeries, the area to be intervened is determined according to the stages. In the early stages, only the interventions in the relevant region are sufficient, while in the advanced stages, surgical procedures are applied to other areas near that region.
It can be equated with shortening the long leg or lengthening the short leg with the Ilirazov method. On the other hand, treatments for curvature, shortness or soft tissue loss that occur as a result of union in bone fractures can also be performed.
In the Ilizarov method, the bones are fixed with hoops and thin wires, and controlled movement is provided to the bone parts thanks to the added hinges and rods. Bone inequalities that develop after problems such as bone loss, congenital diseases and premature closure of growth cartilage can be treated in both children and adults. With the Ilizarov method, a low-energy fracture is actually created in the bone and 1 mm elongation is achieved per day. Elongation is achieved up to 80% of the bone's own length in the desired area.
