Orthopedics and traumatology is the department that includes diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Diagnosis and treatment of congenital, growth-induced, and trauma-induced pathologies are included in this field. Atlas University Hospital, with its experienced team in this field, takes advantage of the advanced possibilities of technology and carries out the treatment of musculoskeletal system diseases with the most up-to-date methods.

Arthroscopy in Knee Joint Diseases
Arthroscopic surgery is often used for meniscal tears and anterior cruciate ligament injuries in the knee joint. Apart from this, it is also preferred in cartilage damage, posterior cruciate ligament tears, common rat, joint membrane inflammation (synovitis), damage to the joint caused by rheumatic diseases, and limitation of motion caused by previous knee and surrounding diseases.
Arthroscopy in Hip Joint Diseases
Arthroscopic surgery is often used in the hip joint for tears, compression, and cartilage injuries in the tissue (labrum) of the hip joint roof, similar to the knee meniscus tissue.
Arthroscopy in Shoulder Joint Diseases
Arthroscopic surgery is often used in shoulder impingement syndrome, repair of rotator cuff tears, and recurrent shoulder dislocations. It is also one of the preferred methods in cartilage damage, lip lesion, tendinitis, and joint membrane inflammation. In particular, arthroscopic shoulder surgeries shorten the hospital stay, significantly reduce the need for post-operative rehabilitation and return to everyday life.
Sports Injuries
Our Medicine Hospital Orthopedics and Traumatology department offers special services to all amateur and professional athletes. Injuries related to other joints, ligaments, and muscles injuries are also successfully treated. In addition, ankle arthroscopy is also performed in our hospital.
