Minimally Invasive & Computer-Assisted Surgical Techniques in Knee Joint and Hip Joint Replacement

Описание: Orthopaedic University Hospital Heidelberg | Interview with Prof. Dr. Tobias Renkawitz

What is artificial hip replacement and knee replacement surgery? How painful is hip replacement surgery or knee replacement surgery? What advantages do "minimally invasive" surgical procedures and bone-saving implant systems offer the patient? How does knee replacement surgery or hip replacement surgery proceed? How long does it take to recover from hip replacement and knee replacement surgery?

Professor Dr. habil. Tobias Renkawitz: Medical Director of the Clinic for Orthopedics, Head of the Endoprosthetics Center of Maximum Care (EPZmax) and Chair of Orthopedics at the University of Heidelberg answers all these questions about artificial replacement of the hip joint and knee joint in an interview.

Professor Renkawitz is considered an international pioneer in minimally invasive and computer-assisted surgical techniques for knee and hip joint replacement. Together with his team, he has developed surgical procedures with which artificial joints can be inserted individually for each patient with the highest precision. In the "quick hip" procedure, the joint specialist goes in between two muscles, pushing the muscles to the side but not injuring them. As a result, patients are quickly mobile and pain-free again, and the precise fit of the prostheses reduces the need for replacement operations. Professor Renkawitz has received a number of awards for his work, including the 2014 "Medicine Oscar" from the Oskar Helene Heim Foundation in Berlin - one of the most highly endowed science prizes for physicians in Germany. His team at the Orthopedic University Hospital in Heidelberg is intensively involved, both clinically and scientifically, with artificial replacements of the hip and knee joints. More than 1,000 joint replacement operations are performed annually at the highly specialized Heidelberg Endoprosthetics Center. Patients are treated individually, with the highest quality and according to the latest clinical and scientific findings. In every operation, the surgical result for the individual patient is the focus of attention.
