ROC in Aschheim revolutionizes hand surgery with Spirecut technology for snap finger & carpal tunnel syndrome

The ROC in Aschheim near Munich is once again setting new standards in orthopedic care: The Regenerative Orthopedic Center (ROC) is the first practice in Germany to offer a state-of-the-art, minimally invasive method for treating carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger —using the innovative Spirecut. This new technology from Switzerland enables procedures without incisions, without scars, and without extended downtime.

Spirecut: High-Tech Solutions for Scar-Free Hand Surgery

The Spirecut method was developed by the Swiss medical technology company Spirecut and marks a turning point in modern hand surgery. Using patented Sono-Instruments® and high-resolution , real-time ultrasound guidance, pathological structures in the carpal tunnel or finger tendons can be precisely treated—through just a tiny puncture in the skin. This completely eliminates the need for a skin incision, sutures, or postoperative dressings. The result: no visible scars, no stitches, no wound care—and a return to daily life as early as the next day. Activities such as typing, washing hands, or office work are usually possible again immediately.

Effective Treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Trigger Finger

This new technology is currently being used primarily to treat two common hand conditions:

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Division of the flexor retinaculum to relieve pressure on the median nerve.
• Trigger finger: Percutaneous division of the A1 ligament to relieve the tendon blockage—can also be performed multiple times or bilaterally.

Both conditions can be treated quickly, precisely, and virtually painlessly with Spirecut—a real breakthrough for affected patients.

Minimally invasive, precise, and without an operating room—ROC in Aschheim leads the way

Another advantage: The Spirecut procedure takes only a few minutes, is performed under local anesthesia without the need for a tourniquet, and requires neither a full surgical set nor surgical assistance. As a pioneer in Germany, the ROC in Aschheim is the first facility to implement this procedure on a widespread basis, thereby offering a forward-looking alternative to traditional hand surgery.

Focus on Patient Benefits: Fast, Scar-Free, Compatible with Everyday Life

Spirecut technology offers new possibilities, particularly for patients with demanding careers and those with high aesthetic expectations. No bandages, no rehabilitation, no time off work—often, just one night is all it takes for complete recovery.

ROC in Aschheim Sets New Standards in Hand Surgery

Spirecut stands for “Swiss Percutaneous Instruments for Rapid and Efficient Surgery”—and lives up to this promise in every respect. The method is not only efficient, but also safe, gentle, and leaves virtually no trace. This sets the ROC in Aschheim apart from conventional surgical options and sets new standards for patient-centered treatment of hand disorders.
