Upper Extremities

Armprothesen & Handprothesen


The Basler Orthopädie René Ruepp has been your reliable partner in the field of prosthetics for arms and hands for several decades. In our orthopedics in Basel, prostheses for arms and hands are a constantly developing branch of care with ever new technologies and the highest quality standards. Prostheses can essentially be divided into passive prostheses such as decorative prostheses (habitus), active prostheses and myoelectric prostheses, each for the different parts of the body as finger prostheses, partial hand prosthesis, hand prosthesis and forearm prosthesis, as well as upper arm prosthesis.


Advice on Prostheses for Arms and Hands


In the prosthetics of the upper extremities, high functionality and a natural look are the top priorities. The aids in the field of prosthetics that we have adapted and individually manufactured are intended to help you to be able to actively shape your private and professional everyday life. Our technically experienced employees are state-of-the-art and are personally at your side throughout the entire process.

Hand prostheses should not only enable the most important basic functions such as gripping, they should also complement the cosmetic aspects such as the external appearance. Our area of ​​orthopedic technology for prostheses works with well-known manufacturers and offers you, the patient, a range of individually manufactured aids from passive habitus prostheses for a natural appearance to myoelectric prostheses for controlling movement through muscle impulses. In an interdisciplinary consultation, we determine which type of prosthesis the patient needs and, with modern prostheses, offer intensive training on safe and proper use for more security when dealing with the new prosthesis.
