Pediatric orthopedics deals with congenital and acquired diseases and malpositions of the musculoskeletal system and treats infants, toddlers and adolescents as outpatients and inpatients. Of course, a parent can stay by their child's side during an inpatient stay. Our parent-child rooms are available for this purpose.
In our pediatric orthopedic department, we treat orthopedic clinical pictures from head to toe. These include congenital deformities of the feet or hip joint in infants, as well as developmental disorders that develop during the course of growth, e.g. bow legs or knock knees, bone cysts or exostoses, deformities of the joints or a curved spine.
