Injuries of bones and joints Treatment in Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Hand Surgery
About the clinic
Treatment for injuries of bones and joints is available at the clinic of Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır in Ankara, Turkey. The center focuses on complex hand surgery and microsurgery, led by a surgeon who performed the second full face transplant in Turkey. Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır uses specialized techniques like free tissue transfers and microsurgical nerve repair to restore function after severe trauma.
Advanced diagnostics and surgical care
Successful recovery starts with precise imaging to assess the damage to bones, ligaments, and nerves. The clinic provides several diagnostic tools to create a personalized surgical plan.
- Imaging scans. These include X-ray, CT, and MRI to view bone breaks and soft tissue damage.
- Electromyography (EMG). This test checks the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them.
- Ultrasound. This helps doctors look at joints and tendons in motion.
Specialized treatment for bone and joint trauma
Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır has over 20 years of experience in reconstructive surgery and leads a team that manages complex injuries. The clinic achieves a success rate of over 95% for microvascular free flaps. This technique moves living tissue to cover large wounds.
- Fracture fixation. Surgeons use plates and screws to restore bone alignment and stability.
- Microsurgical nerve and vessel repair. This procedure uses vein grafting and fine sutures to restore blood flow and sensation.
- Free tissue transfer (flap). This surgery covers large defects using tissue from another part of the body. It typically requires a hospital stay of 3 to 7 days.
- Replantation. This emergency microsurgery saves amputated fingers or hands by reattaching nerves and vessels.
- Joint reconstruction. Doctors use implants or fusion techniques to reduce pain in damaged joints. Patients usually stay in the hospital for 1 to 3 days.
- Tendon repair. This surgery restores hand movement and is often performed as an outpatient procedure.
Expertise of Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır
Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır is a highly skilled surgeon who led the first quadruple limb transplant in the world. He completed research at the Cleveland Clinic and earned a doctorate in hand surgery in 2023. With over 20 years of experience, he focuses on restoring both the look and function of injured limbs. The clinic integrates physical therapy into the recovery plan to help patients regain strength after surgery. You can request a consultation for your injury through Bookimed.

Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Hand Surgery: more details about the clinic
Surgical Expertise and Statistics
Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır attained Professor status in 2019. He received Associate Professor status in 2011. His career includes research on composite tissue transplantation at the Cleveland Clinic. This experience shapes his work in face and limb reconstruction.
The practice reports high success rates for microvascular free tissue transfers. These complex procedures maintain a success rate of 95% or higher. Dr. Nasır also performed notable face transplant work in Turkey. This background supports both aesthetic and functional patient goals.
Plastic and Reconstructive Specialties
The clinic provides a variety of aesthetic and restorative surgeries:
- Rhinoplasty – addresses both aesthetic shape and functional breathing.
- Facial Rejuvenation – includes facelifts, blepharoplasty, and chin aesthetics.
- Body Contouring – offers lipoabdominoplasty, combining tummy tucks with liposuction.
- Gynecomastia Surgery – uses VASER or laser-assisted liposuction for male breast enlargement.
Specialists use the Simon Classification to stage gynecomastia. This helps determine whether surgical excision or liposuction is needed. Tummy tuck options are personalized based on patient needs. These range from mini-abdominoplasty to extended techniques.
Reconstructive and Hand Surgery
Reconstructive care focuses on tissue loss from trauma, burns, and tumors. The clinic uses a "reconstructive elevator" approach. This method matches surgical options to specific patient needs. Surgeons perform microvascular free tissue transfers for complex defects.
Hand surgery addresses conditions involving nerves, tendons, and bones. Surgeons treat acute fractures and nerve lacerations. They also perform toe-to-hand finger transfers to restore movement and sensation.
Gender-affirming pathways are available for transfeminine and transmasculine patients:
- Phalloplasty – uses the gold-standard Radial Forearm Free Flap (RFFF) technique.
- Metoidioplasty – creates functional structures using natural anatomical tissues.
- Facial Feminization (FFS) – involves planning across multiple facial regions.
- Chest Masculinization – includes mastectomy and chest contouring.
Specialists emphasize medical safety during these transitions. Patients must pause hormone therapy before surgery to reduce blood clot risks. Nurses monitor tissue color and temperature every hour after flap transfers.
Technology and Diagnostic Capabilities
The clinic uses several diagnostic tools to plan surgeries. Electromyography (EMG) measures nerve conduction velocity for hand injuries. MRI and CT scans help map tissue structures. For gynecomastia, breast ultrasound or mammograms confirm tissue health.
Treatment technologies include modern energy-based systems. Surgeons use VASER, laser-assisted, and power-assisted liposuction. They also apply radiofrequency tools and ultrasonic-wave devices. These technologies liquefy fat cells while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.
Complex wounds are managed with Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (VAC). This system reduces edema and increases blood flow to support healing. All microsurgery is performed under operating microscopes.
International Patient Services
The clinic treats international patients with a health-tourism-oriented approach. Staff provide medical guidance in English and German. This means clear communication throughout long rehabilitation periods. Postoperative care includes detailed dressing and medication instructions.
Rehabilitation accounts for 50% of total treatment success. The clinic coordinates with therapists for customized splints and physiotherapy. Early mobilization is encouraged to prevent joint stiffness. Surgeons also provide sensory re-education programs for nerve repair patients.
