Opportunities, Experiences and Location of the Teaching Center

Scientific Research Opportunities Available:

We understand that replacing joints is a path of no return and therefore before defining the definitive treatment we routinely use teraupeutic methods in order to improve the quality of life of our patients such as viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acids, physical therapy and stimulus for muscle strengthening as well as stretches. From the Surgical point of view, we started to correct the mechanical axis in order to provide joint harmonization through the redistribution of loads during gait, then we use AMIC by videoarthroscopy and in some cases Lipogems. Prosthesis surgeries are performed in Patients with Remactic Disorders and in those whose Arthrosis has reached a high degree of three-compartment degeneration.
