Research areas of interest:
There are many research interests, ranging from biotechnology to meniscal transplants and osteochondral grafts, from allogeneic grafts for reviews from failures of ligamentous reconstruction to patella stabilization.
He practiced his specialty in the US in some of the world-renowned medical institutions along with internationally famous doctors: the University of Pittsburgh (Dr. Freddie Fu, Dr. Harner, Dr. Savio Lee Wo), the Intermountain Hospital in Salt Lake City (Dr. Rosemberg, Dr. Paulos), Dr. E.

Prof. Guido Grappiolo is Orthopedics Hip and Prosthesis Unit Director in Humanitas Research Hospital. Since 1991, Prof. Guido Grappiolo began working as a researcher dedicated mainly to hip surgery in cooperation with internationally renowned authors such as: Prof. Ganz Prof. T. Gruen, Prof. D. Blaha (U.S.A.), Prof. H. Wagner (Germany), Prof. E. Morscher (Switzerland).
He collaborates with major international schools in the research of new and modern strategies in the field of minimally invasive prosthetics, computer-assisted surgery and conservative surgery. To encourage research in orthopedics is the main scientific goal of the establishment and organization of the "Foundation Livio Sciutto – NPO", an organization of which Prof. Grappiolo is the scientific director. Playing this role, Prof. Grappiolo has been creating and maintaining contacts with other national and international research institutes, which trained thousands of surgeons coming from every country of the world.
The organization has one of the largest hip replacement database of the world: more than 45.000. Dr. Grappiolo is mentored by Dr. Spotorno (a master and pioneer in prosthetic surgery), and their group studied and developed some of the bestselling prosthesis in the world. His research led him to contact the major international schools with which he collaborates in the search for new strategies of improvement in prosthetic minimally invasive and computer-assisted conservative surgery with the development of new prosthetic models and exploration of new materials.
To date, he has attended over 170 meetings, both national and international, almost every time in the role of speaker or chairman. His name appears as author, in more than 60 publications and articles. He has performed more than 2600 prosthetic surgery (hip, knee and ankle).

Dr. Lorenzo Di Mento is the Head of the Traumatology Unit in Humanitas Research Hospital. He is also part of the council of AO Trauma Italy with the role of Community Development.
He specialized in Orthopaedics and Traumatology at the University of Milan (2000-2005), completing several internships abroad:
He also completed a Fellowship of AO Trauma International at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vadois (CHUV) in Lausanne (Switzerland) in 2016, at the center of pelvic surgery and treatment of septic complications in orthopedics and traumatology, directed by Dr. Borens.
He surgically treats fractures, both acutely ongoing ones (with intervention of reduction and synthesis as soon as possible, in accordance with soft tissues and the patient’s conditions) and as psthumous traumas (pseudoarthrosis, bad or non consolidation). He handles polyfractured and polytrauma patients. Dr. Di Mento also treats infections in a traumatic environment, such as septic psedutoarthrosis and surgically the minor tumoral bone localizations, such as osteolysis, impending fractures and pathological fractures.
