What is Orthopedics & Traumatology?
Orthopedics & Traumatology focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of complex fractures, non-unions (failure of a fractured bone to heal properly), and mal-unions (incomplete healing or improper healing position). Traumatic injuries to the musculoskeletal system—including bones, joints, and ligaments—are often the result of vehicular accidents, falls, sports injuries, or industrial incidents. At Asta Medical Group, we specialize in providing expert care for these challenging conditions.

Advanced Surgical Techniques
This minimally invasive technique allows for the diagnosis and treatment of joint conditions using fiberoptic instruments. With just a few small incisions, patients experience reduced scarring and quicker recovery times. Most arthroscopic procedures take about an hour, and patients can often be discharged a few hours post-operation. Many can resume normal activities within days.
Sports injuries are common and can affect various body parts, with the knee being the most frequently injured joint. Our Sports Traumatology Department provides emergency diagnosis and treatment for all types of sports-related injuries.
Utilizing the Ilizarov method, we address functional disorders caused by leg discrepancies and short stature. This innovative technique allows for the gradual lengthening of bones, helping to equalize leg lengths and improve overall function.
