Aleksandr Lopanitsyn • Habitual dislocation of the shoulder

"If I knew that everything could pass so easily and naturally, I would have performed the operation 3-5 years ago
Operation Laterzhe to eliminate habitual dislocation For 10 years I suffered from the usual dislocation of the shoulder joint - damage to the card. In early March of 2019, after another dislocation, I decided that it was time to get rid of this ailment and immediately began searching for the clinic. Moreover, I wanted to find the best surgeon and the best clinic where I would receive high-quality care. Bookimed Somewhere in 2-3 hours after I left a request on the bookimed site, Maxim Voloshin contacted me and we discussed my situation in great detail with him - we talked, I must say, for about 20-30 minutes. After the conversation, I began to collect all the necessary analyzes - MRI and CT. On readiness, he sent them to Maxim, and he, in turn, sent requests to pre-arranged clinics. During the week, plans of operations and their cost from all clinics were received. Maxim and I chose the most adequate clique in our opinion, which showed a truly individual approach exactly to my shoulder. I want to note that Maxim was always in touch, even on Sunday he gave me 15-20 minutes of communication, which I must say is very nice. About Helios Krefeld in more detail: room I went to the operation with a girl, so we chose a comfortable room with additional accommodation. Extremely comfortable, with its own toilet, shower, sink. Very reminiscent of the standard hotel room Hilton :) Food A huge range of dishes, you choose what you eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In addition, in the lobby there is a coffee machine and tea with fruit, sometimes there are desserts. Care I liked very much that they are really watching you. No need to run around the clinic to pass some kind of analysis and stand in queues. Upon arrival, right in my room they took blood for analysis, checked the pressure and temperature. Then I was recorded for a conversation with an anastasiologist and for regentgen. No queues - you are called to the appointed time. Later there was a conversation about the operation, where they explained to me what they would do and how. The next morning, I had an operation, but after that I was also observed for 4 days. At the moment, 3 weeks have passed since the operation, and I can already draw some conclusions about its quality. Already now I can do those exercises that according to the plan only after 3-4 weeks, which is very cool in my opinion. The pains of the movements go away and the freedom of movement returns. If I knew that everything could pass so easily and naturally, I would have performed the operation 3-5 years ago. Thanks to Professor Clayton N.Kraft and Operating Surgeon Klaus Sternemann

"I was very pleased
He underwent a replacement of the t / b joint. The clinic is good, the rooms are comfortable and spacious. I was with my wife, both were satisfied with the accommodation. Professor Kraft operated, it was at the highest level, he was very pleased, there were no complications, they put him on his feet that evening, on the third day he was already walking along the corridor, on the 5th day he was sent for rehabilitation. healed quickly, the pain from the suture didn’t really bother, after 3 weeks everything went away. Professor Kraft is very attentive, he came in person, answered questions, told the nuances. The junior staff did not speak English well, which caused problems. Rehabilitation is very intense and sensible. Gymnastics, fitness equipment, massages, walks, procedures - everything was selected individually and contributed to a quick recovery. Thank you Bookimed, everything is organized well, quickly and on time. I was very pleased.

Everything went at the highest level. From the meeting to the discharge no complaints. A highly qualified team led by Professor Rüdiger Gerlach brilliantly conducted the operation. Thank you so much !!! We also thank the STATION 36 nurses and staff at Helios Clinic for their responsiveness, kindness, and impeccable work.

"Thank you BUKIMED for their professionalism in this noble cause to help people cope with the disease
Good day! It so happened that my daughter, after the postponed treatment with radiation, needed an endoprosthetic replacement surgery.  Given her young age, there was a need to find a clinic that could deliver an endoprosthesis with a maximum period of use. On the Internet, I found reviews about treatment abroad and submitted an application for treatment. Almost the very first day, the coordinator Svetlana answered me and offered several treatment options in clinics that interested me in Germany. Medical coordinator Leonid competently picked up the doctor advised on all issues despite the Christmas holidays. Then, Bookimed led the coordinator Polina, who took maximum efforts to speed up our visit to the Clinic and was always in touch with all the issues that arose. Medical translator Maxim also did not let his team Bookimed, was for us a good assistant in communicating with doctors, polite is ready to help at any time. There were very good impressions about the clinic: the ward is good with all the comforts, the staff is polite in communication, it is accurate in performing the procedures, monitoring the state of health after the operation. There are no more words of admiration from the operation performed by the professional Doctor from God, Daniel Kendoff. We would never have believed before that, on the second day after the operation, TBS arthroplasty can be walked, and on the seventh day we can return home, and not close with two changes (Krasnoyarsk) Around us were honest noble people, THANKS to everyone who was with us in this difficult time for us. Thank you BUKIMED for their professionalism in this noble cause to help people cope with the disease. Respectfully, Lyudmila Shevtsova and her daughter Olga

Our Ankle replacement Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Ankle replacement, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Ankle joint replacement

Ankle joint replacement, also known as ankle arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure where a damaged ankle joint is replaced with a prosthetic ankle.

Pros: Provides better mobility and reduced pain compared to arthrodesis of the ankle joint. Approximately 90% of patients report significant pain relief and improved function post-surgery.
Cons: The lifespan of the artificial ankle is limited, sometimes requiring revision surgery in 10-15 years. Risk of infection and prosthetic loosening is higher compared to ankle arthroscopy.
Effectiveness: 90% success rate in improving pain and function.
Duration: 2-3 hours.
Recovery: 3-6 months.
Best for: Patients with severe arthritis or degenerative joint disease in the ankle. Suitable for individuals seeking improved mobility and pain relief.

Arthrodesis of the ankle joint

This procedure involves fusing the bones of the ankle joint to eliminate pain and improve stability in cases of severe arthritis or injury.

Pros: Offers a 90% success rate in pain reduction and improved stability. Long-lasting results without the need for future replacements, unlike total ankle replacement.
Cons: Limits ankle movement permanently, which can affect walking. Recovery time is longer compared to ankle arthroscopy, which is less invasive.
Effectiveness: Success rate of 90% in pain relief and stability.
Duration: 2-3 hours.
Recovery: 6-12 weeks.
Best for: Severe arthritis, degenerative joint disease, or significant ankle injury. Suitable for patients who do not benefit from ankle joint replacement.

Ankle Arthroscopy

Ankle Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems in the ankle joint.

Pros: Minimally invasive with smaller incisions, leading to faster recovery and less scarring compared to ankle joint replacement and arthrodesis. Approximately 90% of patients report significant pain relief and improved function.
Cons: Limited to addressing specific issues within the joint and may not be suitable for severe arthritis or extensive joint damage. Approximately 10% of procedures may not fully resolve symptoms.
Effectiveness: Success rate of around 90% for improving joint function and reducing pain in targeted conditions.
Duration: 1 to 2 hours.
Recovery: 2 to 6 weeks.
Best for: Addressing cartilage damage, removing bone spurs, and treating ligament injuries within the ankle joint.
