Orthopaedics

Orthopaedics involves the treatment of congenital or acquired disorders of the organs of locomotion. It includes deviations from the infant hip screening, through disorders developing during the course of growth (scoliosis, funnel breast, etc.), to abrasion and degenerative deviations of soft parts developing due to ageing. To put it differently, the diseases of the bones and joints of the extremities, a part of muscle diseases and the deviations of the soft parts surrounded the spine and the vertebras belonging to this area.
If the medicinal or other non-operative methods (articular lift, injection, remedial gymnastics, infusion series, etc.) are not adequate to solve the problem, surgery interventions should be considered.
The most often performed orthopaedic surgeries are orientated to solve the cartilage and joint problems of the limbs and/or to cease and ease the pain of the limbs which can cause inconveniences (arthroscopy, partial and full replacement of hip and knee joint, etc.). The treatment of bone deformations (knot/hammer finger, bone deformation around the knee, etc.), joint, mutation of the soft parts around tendon sheath (ganglion, baker cyst, trigger finger, accumulation of the articular internal membrane, serous cyst inflammation under the top of the shoulder, etc.) deformation of the hand (dupuytren contractura, etc.), batch releases (carpal tunnel), bone and soft part mutation left due to accidents, sport injuries (meniscus injury, garter, achilles-torn tendon, torn ligament in the ankle, etc.) all fall under this particular field.
Some of our orthopaedic surgeries can be performed by applying the arthroscopic method which requires only a small incision. Cartilage damage and joint mousse occurs often in the knee joint, which provide an opportunity to use arthroscopy as a solution without having to make a big incision in the joint.

Arthroscopic Surgeries
This involves leading a camera into the knee-joint by using a round 1 cm small incision device, after then the joint is filled up with liquid. Another surgery device is then inserted from another angle, which also makes a 1 cm incision and removes the damaged parts of the cartilage. With a similar method the torn frontal cross ligament can also be replaced. The objective of the surgery method is not to significantly damage the soft parts of the knee joint, which results in a shorter conventional surgery technique and quicker recovery and rehabilitation of the knee. If it turns out during the course of the surgery that the problem cannot be solved by applying the scopic method, then other techniques will be explored and suggested to reach the required results.

Orthopaedic Surgeries
Shoulder
- The surgical treatment of the sub acromial impingement syndrome by applying arthroscopic and direct techniques: debridement, acromion surgery
- Surgical treatment of the torn rotator tendon with arthroscopic or opened method: acromion surgery, debridement, biceps tenotomy, refixation, if no other options remains, we recommend the Rockwood surgery
- Surgical attendance of sport injuries of the shoulder joint
- Surgical treatment of the instability of the shoulder joint with arthroscopic and direct method: i.e. during the course of repeated shoulder sprain labrum refixation, shrinking of the capsular ligament, skinny fenders
- Arthrolysis because of the frozen shoulder, arthroscopic surgical preparation, debridement
- Surface replacing treatment of the cartilage damages of the shoulder joint with implanting prosthesis

Elbow
- Removal of the free articular body of the elbow joint, articular surface treatment, removal of the thickened articular internal membrane by applying arthroscopic techniques
- Extermination of the elbow-bursa

Wrist
- Carpal tunnel syndrome: preparation of the medianus
- Articular synovectomy
- Removal of the ganglions around the wrist

Hand
- Trigger finger: incision of the tendon sheath
- Synovectomy on small articular cartilage
- Dupuitren syndrome (shrinking of the palm fascia): aponeurectomy (removal of the palm fascia).
- Implantation of articular prosthesis

Hip
- Core decompression, because of initial upper thigh mortification
- Implantation of full articular prosthesis because of abrasion

Knee surgery
Arthroscopic interventions
- Attendance of meniscus injuries: resection, stitch work
- Attendance of the damages of the fovea dentis cartilage surface: debridement, micro-facture, mosaic surgery
- Arthrolysis of the knee joint – movement promoting surgical interventions

Arthroscopic and exploration interventions
- Surgical treatment of the patellofemoral diseases: arthroscopic lateral release, tuberositas tibié transposition
- Surgical treatment of sport injuries of the knee joint
- Arthroscopic or direct attendance of the injuries of the ligament

Direct surgeries
- Synovectomy of the knee joint
- Magastibia-osteotomia, because of curvedness of the shin bone, partial articular cartilage abrasion
- Insertion of knee prosthesis

Ankle
- Arthroscopic articular surface treatment: debridement, microfracture, mosaic surgery
- Synovectomy (partial removal of articular internal membrane), removal of the free articular body of the elbow joint
- Surgical treatment of sport injuries
- In case of serious abrasion and deformation articular stiffening in middle position
Leg
- Correction surgery of the deformations of the foreleg (knot, hammer toe, pain in the sole)
- Surgical treatment of the Haglund heel
