Spe­cia­list for hip re­pla­ce­ments, knee re­pla­ce­ments and par­tial knee replacements

Se­nior Phy­si­cian at the De­part­ment of Or­tho­pe­dics at the Evan­ge­li­cal Hos­pi­tal Vi­enna
Spe­cia­list for hip re­pla­ce­ments, knee re­pla­ce­ments and par­tial knee re­pla­ce­ments
IOC Sports Physician

I am a se­nior phy­si­cian in the De­part­ment of Or­tho­pe­dics and Trau­ma­to­logy at the Evan­ge­li­cal Hos­pi­tal Vi­enna and spe­cia­lize in the im­plan­ta­tion of hip re­pla­ce­ments, knee re­pla­ce­ments and par­tial knee re­pla­ce­ments (uni­com­part­mental joint re­pla­ce­ment). I also treat sports in­ju­ries and di­se­a­ses of the mus­cu­los­ke­le­tal sys­tem using mi­ni­mally in­va­sive techniques. 

Spe­cia­liza­tion in endoprosthetics

My fo­cus is on ar­ti­fi­cial joint re­pla­ce­ment for hip and knee os­teo­ar­thri­tis. When­ever pos­si­ble, I uti­lize mo­dern, mus­cle-spa­ring sur­gi­cal tech­ni­ques to op­ti­mally pre­serve func­tion and mo­bi­lity. For sui­ta­ble in­di­ca­ti­ons, I rely on the uni­com­part­mental knee re­pla­ce­ment, which al­lows for the pre­ser­va­tion of he­althy joint struc­tures and ac­ce­le­ra­tes rehabilitation. 

In my prac­tice, hip re­pla­ce­ments are fre­quently im­plan­ted using the so-cal­led bi­kini in­cis­ion (an­te­rior ap­proach – AMIS tech­ni­que). This mi­ni­mally in­va­sive tech­ni­que en­ables a mus­cle-spa­ring ope­ra­tion via a trans­verse skin fold in the groin area. The in­cis­ion is cos­me­ti­cally in­con­spi­cuous and ge­ne­rally al­lows for par­ti­cu­larly ra­pid mo­bi­liza­tion af­ter the procedure. 

I per­form both pri­mary im­plan­ta­ti­ons and com­plex re­vi­sion sur­ge­ries (re­vi­sion ar­thro­plasty).

About me – in­ter­na­tio­nal edu­ca­tion & research

I was able to deepen my spe­cia­list know­ledge in en­do­pro­sthe­tics th­rough a Re­se­arch Fel­low­ship at the Hos­pi­tal for Spe­cial Sur­gery in New York City (USA) – the lea­ding or­tho­pe­dic hos­pi­tal in the United Sta­tes. I com­ple­ted an­o­ther guest fel­low­ship at the Cha­rité Ber­lin, sup­ported by a sci­en­ti­fic grant. 

My re­se­arch re­sults have re­cei­ved se­ve­ral awards. With my ha­bi­li­ta­tion the­sis “In­no­va­tions in En­do­pro­sthe­tics,” I was gran­ted the aca­de­mic tea­ching li­cense by the Me­di­cal Uni­ver­sity of Vi­enna. Since then, I have been working as a pri­vate lec­tu­rer and spea­ker at in­ter­na­tio­nal conferences. 

In­s­truc­tor for hip and knee prostheses

I am ac­tive as an in­s­truc­tor for hip and knee pro­sthe­sis im­plan­ta­ti­ons and train col­le­agues as part of trai­ning cour­ses and sur­gi­cal trai­ning. A par­ti­cu­lar fo­cus here is the mi­ni­mally in­va­sive AMIS tech­ni­que in hip ar­thro­plasty and the ro­bot-as­sis­ted to­tal knee ar­thro­plasty.

Tre­at­ment of sports injuries

In ad­di­tion to en­do­pro­sthe­tics, the tre­at­ment of sports in­ju­ries is one of my main areas of fo­cus. I rely on mi­ni­mally in­va­sive pro­ce­du­res such as ar­thro­sco­pic pro­ce­du­res on the knee or shoulder joint, as well as mo­dern con­cepts for frac­ture care.
By suc­cessfully com­ple­ting the in­ter­na­tio­nally re­now­ned IOC Sports Me­di­cine Di­ploma, I am li­cen­sed as a sports phy­si­cian for the Olym­pic Games.

My ap­proach

My goal is to help pa­ti­ents re­gain their mo­bi­lity, qua­lity of life, and in­de­pen­dence – th­rough in­di­vi­dual care, mo­dern sur­gi­cal me­thods, and a clear fo­cus on func­tion and sus­taina­bi­lity. Ex­pe­ri­ence, pre­cis­ion, and per­so­nal dia­lo­gue are at the core of my work.
