About the orthopaedics-traumatology unit
Orthopaedics is a branch of medicine concerned with treating conditions affecting bones, joints, tendons and muscles involved with motion. Accidents, diseases, malformations or infections: our teams of specialists with orthopaedic and traumatology experience rely on cutting-edge technologies to offer customised treatments guaranteed to provide the best results and ensure a speedy recovery.

about traumatology
Traffic accidents, along with workplace accidents, sports-related injuries and even the most commonplace household accidents can sometimes have a significant impact on the body: the emergency ward is open 24/7 for admissions relating to soft tissue injuries and bone fractures; the Orthopaedics - Traumatology unit treats these injuries more adequately and as quickly as possible to ensure a full return to the level of activity before the injury was sustained.
