The Orthopedics Department of ELEFTHO polyclinic started its function in 2010. Our surgeons are experienced and cover most of the spectrum of the specialty, effectuating small interventions, like:
- Carpal Tunnel
- Fracture reductions
Medium size interventions like:
- Internal Osteosyntheses
- Tendinoplasties
- Bursectomies
- Hallux Valgus corrections
And important interventions like
- Knee joint replacement
- Hip joint replacement
The excellent collaboration between surgeons and anesthetists allows several interventions to be done under local anesthesia (Epidural / Spinal).
This is very beneficial for older patients with other co-morbidities, and raises the levels of security and comfort.
In terms of prevention, our Radiology department offers the possibility of Bone Densitometry, and thus an early diagnosis and treatment of the major issue of Osteoporosis.
