About the clinic
Robotic knee replacement surgery at the Medical Center in Solingen helps patients regain mobility through precise implant fitting. The clinic is located in Solingen, Germany, and serves as an Academic Hospital of the University of Cologne. It holds the EndoCert certification, which marks it as a specialized center for joint replacements since 2014.
Advanced Surgical Methods
The surgical team performs over 100 knee implantations every year. They use a ligament-preserving surface replacement technique. This method helps maintain the natural stability and function of the knee joint. Patients receive a thorough therapeutic examination before the operation. Doctors also perform a CT scan to determine the exact axis of the leg for better accuracy.
Implant Options and Materials
Surgeons choose the best fit for each person from two main types of prostheses. Options include a partial replacement for one side of the knee or a total surface replacement. The implants are made from durable titanium or a chromium-cobalt alloy. A polyethylene sliding inlay sits between the metal parts to act as artificial cartilage.
Fixation and Recovery
The clinic uses two ways to secure the new joint. The cemented method is the standard for most patients. For younger individuals, doctors may use an uncemented fixation. This allows the natural bone to grow directly into the implant over time. Recovery begins quickly to help the body adapt to the new joint.
- Full weight-bearing is allowed starting from the first day after surgery.
- Inpatient care lasts for about 2 weeks at the hospital.
- Physiotherapy starts immediately to improve joint movement.
- Pool exercises begin 2 to 3 days after surgery once drains are removed.
Safety and Quality Standards
The hospital carries the TÜV RHEINLAND safety certification. Regular external audits through the EndoCert program check that the clinic meets high quality standards. These reviews look at surgical results and patient care protocols. Being an Academic Hospital means the facility stays current with modern medical practices.
