Orthopaedics: Hip join surgeries, knee surgeries
Hip joint surgeries (cemented and uncemented prostheses, "Bilateral Hip Replacement")
The hip joint surgery involves removing the damaged hip joint and replacing it with endoprosthesis. Endoprostheses are made of very resistant, precious metals, plastics and ceramics. They are composed of two parts: an acetabular cup that is inserted in the pelvis and a head which is fixed in the femoral bone. Depending on the way of inserting the cup into the iliac bone (it is either cemented or screwed), two types of endoprostheses can be identified: uncemented (more expensive and resistant, used in younger patients) and cemented (cheaper option of lesser resistance, used in older patients).
Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR) is a novel procedure developed and promoted by British scientists. The head of the femoral bone is reinforced with a metal cap and the articular cavity is left untouched. This prosthetic method does not require removing natural bone parts of the hip joint, and helps restore natural movement in the hip.
This method was developed and promoted by British scientists.
The patient's hospitalisation including preoperative preparation for surgery, surgery itself and initial postoperative rehabilitation should not exceed 8 days.
The necessary follow-up of several weeks' rehabilitation may be commenced in one of our hospitals. Transport and accommodation will be arranged the Clinic.
Knee joint surgeries
Arthroscopic treatments
Our clinic employs the latest modern endoscopic therapeutic methods using knee joint arthroscopy. It involves a micro-camera and surgical tools inserted into the interior of the joint in order to repair the damaged part of the knee. Recovery from knee arthroscopy is much faster than recovery from traditional open knee surgery.Knee joint endoprostheses
We also implant knee joint endoprostheses made of highest quality materials and CE certified. The patient undergoing the surgery will stay in our hospital from 2 to 8 days. Our patients may receive follow-up rehabilitation in one of our Wroc³aw centres. The initial intensive rehabilitation takes about 14 days and involves specialised equipment. Patients are advised to continue rehabilitation after their return home.

Obesity treatment
Modern and non-surgical aid in the treatment of obesity consists of inserting a soft expandable balloon in the stomach. The balloon is constructed of special silicone that is resistant to gastric acidity making it one of the most effective and safest obesity treatment methods. The balloon is introduced through the mouth with no need for surgery. The swallowing process via gastroscopy is made painless with the help of anaesthetics. The main action or mechanism of the balloon filled with saline fluid consists in partially filling the stomach, thus inducing satiety and restricting food intake. After 6 months of treatment the balloon is painlessly removed via gastroscopy. If used in conjunction with a diet prescribed by our doctors, a patient can lose from 15 to 25 kg. The patient is required to stay in hospital for 3 days.
Hernia treatment
Our surgeons have many years of experience in using synthetic mesh implants for tension-free hernia surgery. A small piece of mesh is used to repair the defect in the muscle tissue. With time the tissue and mesh integrate to form a firm structure preventing the relapse of hernia. The patient is required to stay in hospital for 2 days.
Rehabilitation
We perform all medical services in the scope of kinesio- and physiotherapy. Our staff constantly improves their qualifications (PNF, McKenzie).

Preventive examination II
Check up (Programme "Overhaul after Thirty") -
This programme is mainly addressed to busy over-30 year olds who have no time for bouncing from one doctor to another and want to avoid waitlists. It is recommended that every healthy individual should undergo a comprehensive medical check-up to confirm their good health or identify any abnormalities at an early stage as it is far better to prevent rather than cure. Check-up plans are customised. If identified early, a disease can be cured more effectively.
Having examined a patient during the first interview, the doctor decides upon the scope of lab tests to be performed. These may include:
- Laboratory Tests
- Blood cells count with smear
- electrolyte metabolism ( Na, K, Mg, Ca)
- Biochemical examination
- AsPAT. AIAT, FA, bilirubin, amylase, GGTP, urea, creatinine, total protein, lipid profile, glucose, urine acid
- TSH, fT3, fT4
- other, according to doctor's decision (depending on the questionnaire) - Cancer and virus markers (according to doctor's decision)
- General urine tests markers
- Imaging diagnostics
- Chest x-ray in A-P projection with description + mammography
- USG of abdominal cavity and pelvis minor
- USG of the so-called "small organs"- thyroid
- breast
- prostate
- ECG
- Endoscopic diagnostics
- Gastroscopy in premedication
- Colonoscopy (according to doctor's decision) in premedication
- Specialist consultations
- Cardiologist
- Gastrointestinal surgeon
- Ophthalmologist
- Gynaecologist
- Urologist
- Dermatologist
- E.N.T. specialist
- Lung disease specialist
Having undergone all prescribed test, the patient is assigned to his individual therapeutic path. The entire procedure takes about 9 hours. Upon request, the patient may be accompanied by an interpreter guide.
PillCam capsule endoscopy*
PillCam Capsule Endoscopy enables our doctor to examine the three portions (duodenum, jejunum, ileum) of your small intestine. The doctor will use a vitamin-pill sized video capsule as an endoscope, which has its own lens and light source. While the video capsule travels through your body, images are sent to a datarecorder you will wear on a waistbelt. Afterwards the doctor will view the images on a video monitor.
PillCam Capsule Endoscopy helps the doctor determine the cause for recurrent or persistent symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, bleeding or anemia after a gastroscopy and a colonoscopy has been performed without revealing a diagnosis. In certain chronic gastrointestinal diseases the method can also help to evaluate the extent to which your small intestine is involved or monitor the effect of therapeutics. The doctor might use PillCam Capsule Endoscopy to obtain motility data such as gastric or small bowel passage time.
