Orthopedics and Traumatology

The Department of Orthopedics Traumatology, which is one of the broadest departments of medicine, includes many special branches. Each of these branches requires separate features, techniques and experiences. Orthopedics and traumatology department within Gazi Hospital is structured on the basis of these ideas.

Trauma; Most of the time, we come up with a surprise due to factors such as falls, sports injuries, work accidents or traffic accidents. The resulting damage can range from a simple soft tissue crush to comminuted fractures in large bones, depending on the severity of the trauma. Being able to treat a severely traumatized patient requires good equipment, serious organization and teamwork. Since it is not known when the trauma patient will come, the trauma center should be prepared at all times. Gazi Hospital has at least one orthopedic and traumatology specialist for 24 hours. After the trauma patient is welcomed and the first interventions performed by this specialist, radical treatment is performed by the orthopedic trauma subspecialist as soon as possible.

Approaches and surgical methods in the treatment of fractures are constantly being renewed. Better, more modern and more harmless treatment methods and equipment are constantly being developed in line with technological developments. The aim is to return the patient to his / her daily life as soon as possible and without any problems.
