Card

Dr Markus Rohrbach is a specialist in MAKO robot-assisted hip replacement and arthroscopy at his practice in Bern.

Dr Rohrbach, the experienced FMH specialist in orthopedic surgery, treats all hip joint disorders following a thorough diagnosis. Hip arthroscopy is used as a minimally invasive method for diagnosis and treatment. If hip replacement is necessary due to severe pain and restricted movement, Dr Rohrbach offers robot-assisted prosthesis implantation. This ensures maximum precision during surgery, rapid recovery, and improved joint function.

Minimally Invasive Hip Surgery: Specialist in Hip Arthroscopy in Bern

Dr Markus Rohrbach is one of Switzerland's leading specialists in hip arthroscopy. Thanks to his extensive training and many years of experience, he is able to respond sensitively to the individual needs of his patients. Hip arthroscopy makes it possible to remove deformities of the thigh and pelvic bones, rebuild damaged cartilage, and naturally reconstruct torn labrum structures.

The Swiss hip specialist can treat hip impingement to correct misalignments in the joint and thus prevent long-term damage caused by incorrect weight bearing.

This minimally invasive technique ensures faster healing, reduces postoperative pain, and facilitates an early return to sporting and everyday activities - a decisive advantage over open surgery.

Gentle Hip Replacement: High-Tech Prosthesis for Maximum Quality of Life

When hip osteoarthritis causes severe pain and restricted movement, joint replacement is often the only way to restore the quality of life that patients hope for.

Dr Rohrbach relies on the robot-assisted MAKO system, which ensures maximum precision during hip prosthesis implantation. This state-of-the-art technology uses detailed 3D planning of the hip joint based on radiological imaging to tailor the procedure to each patient's anatomical and biophysical characteristics.

A robotic arm assists the surgeon during the procedure, ensuring the prosthesis is positioned with millimeter precision. This results in improved joint function, increased durability of the implant, and faster recovery after hip replacement surgery.

In addition, the precise incisions minimize the risk of soft tissue injury, reducing postoperative pain and enabling a quick return to normal mobility.

Hip Replacement Surgery Using State-of-the-Art Technology

Over time, artificial hip joints can become loose or worn. In such cases, hip replacement surgery is necessary. The challenge here is often to preserve the remaining bone substance as much as possible and ensure that the new prosthesis is securely anchored.

Dr Rohrbach can offer customized solutions using innovative techniques such as tailor-made implants, special cementing procedures, and stabilizing metal alloys.

This maximizes the long-term stability of the new prosthesis and minimizes the risk of further complications such as dislocation or loosening. In addition, healing is sped up so that patients can get back on their feet faster and enjoy a high quality of life in the long term.

Relieve Joint Pain Without Surgery Using Injection Therapy

Surgery is not always the first or best solution. Dr Rohrbach, a hip specialist, offers a wide range of conservative treatment options for early joint problems or overuse syndromes. Injection therapy, in which anti-inflammatory and regeneration-promoting substances are injected directly into the affected joint or surrounding soft tissue structures, has proven particularly effective.

These include hyaluronic acid, which improves joint lubrication, and other biological preparations that reduce inflammation and support healing. The treatment can reduce symptoms and help tendons and cartilage tissue regenerate. This type of therapy is considered a conservative treatment option for many orthopedic conditions before surgery becomes necessary.

Joint Preservation Instead of Prosthesis: Many Years of Experience in Arthroscopic Cartilage Therapy

Preserving the natural joint is always Dr Rohrbach's top priority. Targeted cartilage therapy can help slow the progression of the disease and reduce symptoms in the long term, especially in younger patients or in the early stages of arthrosis.

Dr Rohrbach relies on modern procedures such as chondrocyte transplantation, in which the body's cartilage cells are removed and implanted into the affected area for regeneration. Microfracture, a minimally invasive method, stimulates the formation of replacement tissue, while hyaluronic acid injections improve joint fluid and protect the cartilage.

In cases of more severe damage, cartilage transplantation may also be used, in which healthy cartilage is removed from less stressed areas of the joint surface and transplanted to the defective areas. These therapies aim to preserve the body's joint structure for as long as possible and to delay or avoid joint replacement by supporting the body's healing mechanisms.
