The Nardini Klinikum Landstuhl is a renowned facility that is characterized by excellent care in the field of orthopedics and trauma surgery. Over 550 hip replacements and around 250 knee replacements are implanted here every year. The clinic has been using computer-assisted surgical techniques for over 15 years, which have been further improved by the introduction of hand-guided robotics. This modern technology, in particular the CORI OR system, allows precise planning and completion of knee surgeries. With this system, surgeons create virtual, personalized surgical plans based on the patient's individual anatomy to determine the ideal size, alignment and position of the implants. This ensures precise placement and increases the safety and longevity of the prostheses. StylianosToumasis and his team have undergone special training in order to be able to use robotics-assisted surgery. The surgical staff have also been trained accordingly in order to meet the high standards required by the Nardini Clinic as a maximum care endoprosthetics center according to EndoCert. This certification, which the clinic has held since 2013 and was last confirmed in 2023, guarantees compliance with strict quality standards and comprehensive patient care. The interdisciplinary team at the Nardini Clinic, consisting of experts in orthopedics and trauma surgery, anaesthesia, radiology, vascular surgery, physiotherapy, nursing staff and technical orthopedists, works closely together to ensure optimal care. This collaboration makes it possible to provide patients with comprehensive care, from initial treatment, pre-operative planning and surgery through to aftercare and rehabilitation.
A particular focus of Stylianos Toumasis and his team is the treatment of osteoarthritis of the hip and knee.
When conservative measures are no longer sufficient, state-of-the-art procedures are used to alleviate the symptoms. For example, the minimally invasive AMIS method, which is characterized by its gentle and effective approach, has been used to treat hip osteoarthritis for over fifteen years. Partial or full prostheses are also used for knee osteoarthritis, knock knees and bow legs, depending on the degree of wear and tear. Computer-assisted and navigated surgery, which has been used almost exclusively in the knee area since 2007, improves mobility and minimizes the risk of complications. Stylianos Toumasis and the Nardini Klinikum Landstuhl stand for patient-oriented, high-quality care that includes state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment procedures. Close cooperation between the various specialist departments and the use of advanced technologies make it possible to offer patients safe and effective treatment. The goal is to maintain or restore patients' mobility and quality of life and to provide them with comprehensive support from the initial diagnosis to full rehabilitation.
