Foot

Fuss

The foot consists of 26 bones as well as numerous tendons, muscles and ligaments. They work together with every step and form a stable three-point support with the heel and the inner and outer ball of the foot. This allows the entire body weight to be supported on one leg.

Through the interaction of many small joints, the foot allows a variety of movements. It makes walking, running, and jumping possible and ensures a smooth and stable movement pattern.

Prostheses:
For irreparable foot damage, prosthetics offer an effective solution. Modern prosthetics enable pain-free walking and are aesthetically designed to match the natural shape of the foot.

Minimally invasive surgery:
Minimally invasive surgery uses small incisions to treat foot deformities and bone issues. This technique promotes faster healing, reduces scarring, and minimizes postoperative pain, accelerating recovery.

Arthroscopic keyhole surgery:
For joint problems in the foot, arthroscopic surgery is performed through small incisions, using a specialized instrument (arthroscope) for diagnosis and treatment. This method is particularly effective for inflammation or cartilage damage, offering a gentle and rapid recovery with minimal risk.
