About Prof. MD O. Kilian
Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of Zentralklinik are lead by Chief Physician, Professor and MD Olaf Kilian. Dr. Kilian is a talented surgeon and orthopaedist, who willingly shares his experiences and knowledge with colleagues. A Department team includes many highly skilled professionals, who help patients with a wide range of problems supporting them to cope with both the acute traumas and chronic diseases of the musculoskeletal system.
The Department solves almost any problem related to the limbs and spine diseases. It is certified in the field of hip and knee joint replacement and annually conducts a large number of operations on joint replacement with transplant. Also clinic is engaged in revision surgery to replace the old type of prosthetic and reconstructive surgery. The surgeons successfully perform cartilage transplant, use techniques to speed up a tissues fusion; the clinic has a bone material bank.
In the department of orthopedics and sports medicine, whenever possible, sparing techniques are applied, those reduce the recovery time after surgery and minimize damage. Arthroscopy could be used both as diagnostic and correction method. It is performed under local or general anesthesia depending on the complexity of the operation. With arthroscopy you can scrutinize the injured tissues and ligaments and reconstruct them immediately or, based on the data, to draw conclusions on the more radical methods, which need to be taken.
Nowadays, joints replacement surgery has become more common. Often this is the only way to regain the ability to move normally for people who are not recovered with conservative medicine. This area of medicine is constantly being improved, and the specialists of Zentralklinik always strive to use the best technology: cement free, with light alloys and protective coatings to allow the patient to feel the newfound joint as their own part of the body. The prosthesis now is not a clumsy device but transplant implanted into the body in almost natural way.
Rehabilitation after joint replacement is also a part of programs implemented in the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of Zentralklinik. Physiotherapy, complexes of specially designed exercises, fitness equipment, developing a correct posture – all of those is only a small part of offered to the patients by department personnel.
