Shoulder surgery Surgical wound
The bulk of private surgeries is mainly including knee replacements (total, unicompartmental, revisions - revision, minimally invasive - MIS) and hip replacement (total, surface - resurfacing, minimally invasive) and less knee and shoulder arthroscopy, sports injuries. My biggest interest is in the knee and hip. The last five years I combine my practical minimal invasiveness in hip and knee replacements in conjunction with protocols and programs of quick recovery and fast exit of patients from the hospital or clinic.
