Orthopaedics is a medical speciality that deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases and injuries of the locomotor system.
This speciality covers a wide range of problems and conditions, from joint and bone injuries to degenerative diseases affecting the musculoskeletal system.
Orthopedists use different diagnostic methods to determine the nature and severity of the problem. These include X-rays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), multi-layer computed tomography (MSCT), ultrasound and clinical examination.
In the Medico Special Hospital, we take an individual approach, which specifically leads to diagnosis and in conversation with the patient we arrange further treatment, taking into account his individual characteristics, clinical characteristics and life needs.
Orthopaedics is constantly evolving thanks to the advancement of technology. In the entire range of treatment options for diseases and disorders of the locomotor system at Specialty Hospital Medico, we perform minimally invasive surgical procedures for shoulder, elbow, knee and ankle arthroscopies, as well as reconstruction of tendons, anterior cruciate ligaments, meniscus, shoulder, tennis elbow operations, as well as surgical correction of all deformities of feet and toes and bunions.
Medico Special Hospital has significantly enriched the offer of surgical services in the field of orthopaedics, as well as its orthopaedic team, which also applies the most modern treatment methods in the field of regenerative medicine, i.e. orthobiology.
Regenerative medicine is aimed at developing new ways of treating tissues and organs that stimulate i.e. use the natural abilities of regeneration (recovery) of the human body. The aim of this treatment is to restore the lost function of the affected tissue or organ that is caused by ageing, disease or damage.
Orthobiology, as part of regenerative medicine, uses biological (natural) substances found in the human body to help treat diseases of the locomotor system. To put it simply, biological drugs applied in orthobiology interact with the human body’s own cells and tissues to stimulate healing mechanisms in various orthopaedic diseases, including parts of the musculoskeletal system that are poorly regenerated or healed by themselves.
At the Specialty Hospital Medico , all the state-of-the-art options for orthobiological treatment are available to our patients.
