The spectrum of activities of the department covers the surgical treatment of all types of injury and degeneration (wear and tear) of the musculoskeletal system in adults and children, including the spinal column and pelvis. The areas of focus here are arthroscopic operations on the knee, shoulder, hip, hand and ankle joints as well as the implantation of artificial joints in the hip, knee and shoulder. State-of-the-art instruments and materials (e.g. titanium) are used in these procedures.

The Trauma Surgery Department is a member of the North-West Trauma Network.
