University Hospital provides ORIF (Open Reduction and Internal Fixation) using contemporary fracture fixation techniques and evidence-based orthopaedic care. Founded in 1842, the SAC accredited hospital is based in Basel, Switzerland, with 773 beds and services for domestic and international patients.

During ORIF, the surgeon manually repositions the fractured bone fragments and uses internal fixation devices to maintain proper alignment while the bone heals. The technique can be used for fractures involving the limbs, joints, or other bones when stable alignment cannot be achieved through conservative treatment. Imaging and clinical assessment help determine the appropriate approach.
