  • I deal with locomotor surgery, within which I would highlight endoprosthetic (hip, knee) and arthroscopic (joint mirroring) surgeries for shoulder and knee joints, which we perform in large numbers. Also, degenerative, wear-and-tear orthopedic diseases, acute and chronic sports injuries play a prominent role. A very important part of our profession is the careful examination of patients, the application of conservative treatment if necessary, and the planning and control of rehabilitation following surgery.
