Specialist in Hand Surgery

Hand surgery deals with all disorders that affect the function of the hand. It includes the conservative and surgical treatment of diseases, trauma sequelae and malformations of the upper extremity. The treatment principles correspond to those of general surgery, orthopaedic and plastic-reconstructive surgery as well as physical medicine and rehabilitation. Microsurgery is an integral part of hand surgery. The close proximity of the anatomical structures in the complex functional anatomy of the hand requires specific diagnostic, therapeutic and rehabilitative skills.
