Injuries of bones and joints Treatment in Orthopedics Istanbul

Orthopedics Istanbul is a specialized orthopedic and trauma center in Istanbul, Turkey, opened in 2023. Its 7-specialist team lists imaging, fracture care, joint surgery, and regenerative treatments, working with Medical Park Maltepe Hospital.

MRI and orthopedic assessment

Assessment options include an online screening test, specialist examination, imaging, and remote review. ACL checks can include the Lachmann, pivot shift, and anterior drawer tests.

• Imaging: X-ray, MRI, CT, fluoroscopy, and other radiology imaging.
• Remote assessment: Online medical second opinions, video consultations, and online appointment scheduling.

Arthroscopy, fracture care, and joint repair

• Fracture and dislocation surgery: Options include casts or splints, plates and screws, nails for long bones, and external fixation for severe injuries. Femur fracture stays are often 1–2 days; crutches may be used from day one.
• ACL reconstruction: Arthroscopic surgery is followed by a 1-day hospital stay. Walking can start the next day; sports may resume around 6 months later.
• Meniscus surgery: Arthroscopy can repair a tear with stitches or remove part of the meniscus. Recovery is around 3 weeks after removal or 6 weeks after repair.
• Shoulder arthroscopy: Small portals, a camera, implants, and sutures are used for rotator cuff or Bankart repair. The procedure averages 1 hour.
• Hip arthroscopy: A traction table, camera, and instruments treat impingement, labral tears, loose bodies, and cysts. Surgery takes 1–1.5 hours.
• Hip replacement: Ceramic-ceramic or ceramic-polyethylene implants are used with spinal anesthesia. Walking may begin the same or next day.
• Knee replacement: Metal and polyethylene implants replace damaged joint surfaces. Surgery takes about 1 hour, with a hospital stay of around 2 nights.
• Avascular necrosis surgery: Early-stage treatment can include bone drilling and stem cell injection from belly fat. Later cases may be treated with hip replacement.
• Regenerative orthopedics: PRP, bone marrow, belly fat, or placental stem cells, and exosomes may be used for tendon, cartilage, ligament, and joint problems.
• Exosome therapy: Sterile exosomes are injected into a joint as an outpatient procedure for cartilage damage or arthritis.
• Sanakin therapy: Blood is incubated for 3–4 hours to activate anti-inflammatory factors, then used for joint, muscle, tendon, or ligament injuries.
• Intraosseous bioplasty: Biological materials, such as stem cells or PRP, are injected into damaged bone under anesthesia.
• Cartilage repair: Arthroscopic microfracture creates small holes in bone. Mosaicplasty transfers cartilage and bone cylinders from another area.
• High tibial osteotomy: A controlled bone cut corrects leg alignment, secured with a plate and screws. Hospital stay is 1 day.
• Patella fracture surgery: X-ray, CT, or MRI can guide care; fixation uses a 5–6 cm incision.
• Foot, ankle, and hand surgery: Procedures address ankle injuries, navicular bone problems, and complex hand or upper-limb trauma.
