Qualifications

Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy is described in the clinic’s materials as a biological method for bone tumor treatment, with tumor cells inactivated at −273°C and liquid nitrogen kept ready in the operating room. Mehmet Baydar is a specialist at the clinic, and his work spans orthopedic oncology under the umbrella of “good tumors” and hand surgery with microsurgical techniques. For benign bone lesions such as enchondroma, the described surgical approach is curettage (scraping) followed by bone cement placement and stabilization with a plate. When symptoms come from nerve compression, his clinic content explains that nerve release can be performed using open or closed endoscopic methods. In the hand, he also addresses complex congenital conditions: syndactyly surgery is described with Z-plasty, full-thickness skin grafts, and flaps, with additional bone resections, tenoplasty, and nail bed revisions in complex cases.

Clinical focus and techniques

Baydar’s clinic materials emphasize surgical precision for tumors, nerve entrapment, and complex hand reconstruction.

Bone tumor treatment using liquid nitrogen — described as a biological approach where tumor cells are inactivated at −273°C and the bone is treated and reintroduced after cryotherapy.
Enchondroma surgery — curettage (scraping) plus bone cement (cement) and plate fixation.
Nerve compression surgery — open or closed endoscopic (endoscopy-assisted) release is described.
Syndactyly surgery — Z-plasty, full-thickness skin graft, flap; complex cases may require bone resections, tenoplasty, and nail bed revisions.
Aneurysmal bone cyst treatment — described as clearing cyst contents, placing bone graft, and stabilizing with a plate.
Glomus tumor of the nail bed — described as marginal excision.
Hemangioma (vascular birthmark) — described as a benign soft tissue tumor treated under orthopedic oncology concepts, often in hand/foot regions.

For international patients, the clinic content describes evaluation and treatment pathways that rely on imaging such as MRI and on surgical planning. His practice combines orthopedic oncology principles with hand microsurgery, including tumor excision and reconstruction, as well as nerve decompression. Consultations are typically arranged around the specific lesion type—benign bone tumors, nerve entrapment, or complex hand anomalies.
