As an experienced shoulder specialist, Stefan Buchleitner, MD focuses in particular on minimally invasive joint surgery (arthroscopy) and endoprosthetic procedures.

The implantation of artificial shoulder joints – similar to knee or hip prosthetics – has long been a successful standard procedure offered at Confraternität Private Hospital. Here, modern, very durable, and extremely well-tolerated artificial shoulder joints are used. By applying the PSI technique (Patient Specific Instruments), shoulder prostheses can be completely customized to the individual patient and inserted precisely using 3D surgical planning. This particularly gentle and modern surgical method ensures that patients are without pain and mobile again within a short period of time.

All shoulder treatments are performed at Confraternität Private Hospital in close cooperation with experienced anesthetists and physiotherapists.
