Specialties
We treat the full range of conditions, even the most complex ones, with the latest techniques. We specialize in techniques such as: knee arthroscopy, shoulder arthroscopy, (MIS) knee arthroplasty, SuperPath minimally invasive hip arthroplasty, hip fracture treatment, hip arthroscopy, osteosynthesis of upper and lower limb fractures using modern techniques and many more.
Total hip arthroplasty is a common orthopaedic procedure, which is performed to replace damaged or worn hip joints. The standard approach to hip arthroplasty uses a long incision to access the joint surfaces. Minimally invasive hip arthroplasty is a variation of this approach, and can be performed with one or two shorter values and a less invasive technique.
Knee arthroplasty is the surgery replacing the knee that has suffered chronic damage due to knee osteoarthritis. The traditional and most widely used approach is based on a large vertical skin incision in the center of the knee. In contrast, in minimally invasive knee arthroplasty (M.I.S.), the orthopaedic surgeon uses a smaller skin incision and a less invasive technique to reduce postoperative pain and patient’s recovery time.s
Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that treats a large number of shoulder conditions. The surgeon using a small camera (arthroscope) inserted through a small incision will examine the area around and above the joint, i.e. tissues, cartilage, bones, tendons and ligaments. Arthroscopic tools are inserted through one to three smaller incisions and the process of correcting damage to muscles, tendons or cartilage begins.
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that treats a large number of knee conditions. Arthroscopy has almost completely replaced traditional arthrotomy, one of the most common orthopaedic procedures. Using specialized tools and a small camera, called an arthroscope, surgeons can visualize and operate on the joint with minimal disruption to the surrounding tissues.
Intra-articular injections are an innovative and non-invasive method for treating pain and various symptoms. They are most commonly - but not exclusively - used in joints that are subjected to greater daily stress, such as knees and shoulders. Intra-articular injections include substances such as PRP (platelet-rich plasma), stem cells and cortisone. They are safe and relatively simple procedures, with minimal risks of complications or side effects.
