We offer innovative treatments for shoulder and knee joints to help athletes and active individuals return to full fitness as quickly as possible.
Shoulder – Treatment Spectrum
Our range of services includes shoulder joint replacement, rotator cuff repairs, and treatment of shoulder dislocations. Using state-of-the-art technologies such as 3D printing and minimally invasive techniques, we ensure precise and effective surgical outcomes.
Knee – Treatment Spectrum
We treat patellar instability, ACL and collateral ligament ruptures, and meniscus injuries. Our arthroscopic and minimally invasive procedures enable rapid recovery and long-lasting joint stability.

An anatomical shoulder replacement is a suitable option in cases of bone necrosis or degenerative joint disease when the rotator cuff is still intact. If tendons are torn or severely degenerated, or if the joint is already deformed, an excellent treatment outcome can be achieved using a reverse shoulder prosthesis (also called a "delta prosthesis").
Both techniques can restore pain-free function using durable metal and plastic implants. The choice of procedure depends on the individual case. Based on symptoms and imaging studies, we create a personalized treatment plan for every patient. In complex situations, we produce a three-dimensional digital simulation to assist the surgeon with 3D-printed models and patient-specific instrumentation (PSI), ensuring optimal component positioning.
We use modern short-stem implants that enable bone-sparing implantation, typically without the need for bone cement. Even in severe shoulder injuries, such as complex fractures of the humeral head, reverse shoulder arthroplasty offers a reliable and effective solution.

Many painful shoulder conditions can be treated conservatively by an orthopaedic specialist. However, if symptoms persist, structural damage such as tendon tears may be the underlying cause. In these cases, we offer surgical options focused on anatomical tendon reconstruction.
For more complex or extensive damage, minimally invasive procedures such as superior capsule reconstruction are available. Timely repair or replacement of torn tendons can prevent premature joint wear and preserve function.
Shoulder dislocation requires immediate attention. MRI and evaluation by a specialist help determine if surgery is necessary based on the type of injury. Ideally, surgical intervention should occur within the first few weeks. Minimally invasive reconstruction is performed using narrow nylon and plastic implants.
In cases of recurrent dislocation or failed previous surgery, we offer extended stabilization procedures such as the Latarjet transfer, which involves relocating a bony prominence to stabilize the joint. These surgeries have a high success rate and often fully restore joint function. For urgent inquiries, please contact us at +49 201 87788-17 or akut@procelsio.clinic.
Patellar instability causes pain and impairs mobility in daily life, work, and sports. Anatomical variations such as knock-knees, femoral torsion, or malformations of the patellofemoral joint must be identified prior to treatment.
We specialize in corrective surgeries to address misalignment and stabilize the kneecap. Each case requires careful assessment to create a customized treatment plan. Procedures are performed arthroscopically and minimally invasively, enabling rapid recovery even in combined surgeries.
Because patellar instability often leads to cartilage damage, surgical repair or cartilage regeneration may be necessary. We aim to combine interventions for efficient rehabilitation.
Whether surgery is advisable after an ACL tear depends on the patient's age, activity level, and degree of instability. Alongside MRI, a targeted knee exam helps assess instability severity. Concomitant injuries to the meniscus, cartilage, or other ligaments must be considered and treated during ACL reconstruction if necessary.
We typically use autologous tendon grafts from the same leg, which are anchored to bone through minimally invasive procedures. In complex cases, tendons from the opposite leg or synthetic materials may be used. Early mobilization and physiotherapy begin immediately post-op under physician supervision. We develop a personalized rehabilitation plan to ensure optimal recovery.
In complex or revision cases, detailed anatomical evaluation (e.g., alignment, deformity) is crucial to prevent further joint damage. For acute or complex injuries, feel free to contact us for prompt consultation.
The medial and lateral meniscus are essential for proper knee function. Meniscal injuries should always be evaluated for possible reconstruction, as preserving meniscus tissue is key to joint longevity.
Additional factors such as ligament instability or biomechanical issues (e.g., strong varus deformity) must be addressed in treatment planning. Previously resected meniscus tissue may result in cartilage degeneration, leading to recurrent symptoms. When conservative measures fail, surgery may be necessary.
Leg alignment (varus/valgus) significantly affects knee joint function and may cause pain and degeneration. After a detailed clinical exam, we perform radiographic imaging and digital analysis to assess alignment.
Based on findings, a customized treatment plan is developed. Osteotomy is performed during a short inpatient stay using minimally invasive techniques and titanium implants, allowing immediate post-op mobilization and weight-bearing.
Additional procedures such as ACL reconstruction or cartilage transplantation can be combined in a single operation. At Procelsio Clinic, personalized rehab begins directly after surgery, supervised by the operating surgeon. Osteotomy can significantly improve chronic knee conditions and is a valuable alternative to total knee replacement, which is also a key specialty of our clinic.
