Orthopedics in Turkey

What Is Orthopedic Care?

In orthopedics, we focus on conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system. This system includes bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons. We diagnose, treat, and prevent issues related to these parts of the body. These structures work together to keep you moving, standing, and performing everyday activities. Orthopedic care ranges from non-invasive treatments like physiotherapy and joint injections to surgical procedures that correct, replace, or repair damaged structures. Whether the issue arises from aging, injury, or a chronic health condition, effective orthopedic care can help you reduce pain, improve function, and get back to the activities you love.

Conditions We Treat

Orthopedic conditions can impact your entire body, from your spine and shoulders to your hips, knees, and feet. At Istanbul Med Assist, we help patients manage and treat various musculoskeletal conditions, such as:

• Joint problems, such as arthritis, cartilage loss, and joint stiffness
• Spine conditions, including scoliosis, herniated discs, and spinal stenosis
• Sports injuries, like ligament tears (ACL, meniscus), tendonitis, and overuse injuries
• Bone fractures and trauma, whether from accidents, falls, or repetitive stress

Our focus is to design individualized treatment plans that not only address your current symptoms but also support long-term joint health and mobility.

Orthopedic Procedures We Offer

We provide a variety of orthopedic procedures and treatments. We provide a variety of orthopedic procedures and treatments. Our experienced surgeons use the most modern techniques to provide the best care. Some of the key procedures available include:

• Meniscus Repair – Addressing knee cartilage tears to restore stability and reduce pain
• ACL Surgery – Reconstructing the anterior cruciate ligament for improved knee strength and mobility
• Arthroscopy – A minimally invasive technique that eliminates the need for big incisions by diagnosing and treating joint problems using a tiny camera
• Knee Replacement – Replacing worn-out or damaged joint surfaces with durable implants for lasting relief
• Hip Replacement – Restoring hip function in patients with chronic pain or joint deterioration
• Scoliosis Treatment – Managing spinal curvature with bracing, physical therapy, or surgery when needed
• Bunion Surgery – Correcting foot deformities to relieve pain and improve alignment

These are some of the most common procedures we coordinate, but we also support a wide range of other orthopedic treatments, ensuring that whatever your condition, you receive the care you need.

Modern Diagnostic Tools

Effective treatment begins with a precise diagnosis. Our partner clinics in Turkey use state-of-the-art diagnostic technology to ensure your condition is fully understood before any decisions are made. These tools include:

• MRI and CT scans for clear, detailed imaging of bones, joints, and soft tissues
• Digital X-rays for fast and effective assessments of fractures and joint conditions
• Doctors can use arthroscopic evaluation to look directly inside a joint and find any problems.
• Electromyography (EMG) to evaluate the health of the muscles and nerves, especially useful for complex cases involving muscle weakness or nerve compression

This advanced imaging ensures that your treatment plan is precisely tailored to your needs.

Innovative Treatment Options

Our orthopedic partners in Turkey use both standard surgery methods and modern innovations to achieve the best results for patients. This includes:

• Minimally invasive surgeries, which use smaller cuts to reduce pain, lessen scarring, and speed up recovery
• High-quality implants that are built to last and designed to work as closely as possible to your natural joints
• Personalized rehabilitation programs – Carefully crafted plans that begin soon after surgery to promote healing, rebuild strength, and restore mobility
• Non-surgical therapies – Including physical therapy, manual therapy, and joint injections such as corticosteroids and hyaluronic acid to relieve pain and inflammation without surgery
• In addition to these approaches, we offer regenerative medicine therapies designed to stimulate the body’s own healing processes:
• Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) – Concentrated platelets from your own blood are injected into damaged tissues to encourage repair and reduce inflammation
• Stem cell treatments – Harnessing the regenerative potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to support tissue repair in joints, tendons, and cartilage
• MSC-derived exosomes – These microscopic vesicles, released by mesenchymal stem cells, contain a lot of signaling chemicals and growth factors. They help reduce inflammation, support tissue regeneration, and enhance healing, all without the need for direct cell transplantation. Exosome therapy is an exciting, non-cellular approach showing promise in orthopedic care for promoting natural recovery and improving joint function.

Recovery and Rehabilitation

Your recovery is just as important as the treatment itself. After surgery or therapy, we ensure you have access to:

• A customized rehabilitation plan, tailored to your procedure and physical condition
• Pain management support, to keep discomfort under control while you heal
• Ongoing monitoring and follow-up assessments, to track your progress and make adjustments as needed
• Lifestyle and movement guidance, helping you avoid re-injury and maintain joint health long-term

A structured recovery makes it easier to return to daily activities, like walking comfortably or playing sports again.
