Traumatic Surgeries

Trauma and fracture surgery, including the management of all types of bone fractures, often utilizes the minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique. MIPO is a surgical approach that aims to stabilize fractures using small incisions and specialized implants, minimizing soft tissue damage and promoting faster recovery.

In MIPO surgery, fracture fragments are aligned and stabilized using specially designed plates and screws inserted through small incisions near the fracture site. This technique allows for adequate fracture fixation while preserving the surrounding soft tissues and blood supply.

MIPO is commonly used to treat various types of fractures, including long bone fractures (such as those in the femur, tibia, and humerus), as well as fractures of the pelvis and extremities. Benefits of MIPO surgery include reduced risk of infection, less postoperative pain, faster healing, and quicker return to function compared to traditional open surgery techniques.

Overall, MIPO technique is a valuable approach in trauma and fracture surgery, offering effective fracture stabilization with minimal tissue disruption and optimal patient outcomes.
