Prof. Dr. med. Axel Hillmann is a leading specialist in orthopedics and traumatology, specializing in rotationplasty, a surgical procedure for removing tumors from the leg that allows greater mobility and a problem-free everyday life. Rotationplasty is an alternative to limb-sparing surgery, and Prof. Hillmann has experience with this procedure in the hip, shoulder, and distal femur locations. After the procedure, there is the need to train both the body and the brain, as the impulse that would normally control the ankle now moves the prosthesis that replaces the lower leg.
