Clinical activity

Percutaneous surgery, arthroscopic surgery and reconstructive surgery of the foot and ankle, chosen for each injury.

Percutaneous surgery

Percutaneous foot surgery, or MIS (minimal incision surgery), allows operating through small incisions (portals) without directly exposing the deep planes. This damages less soft tissue and shortens operating time.

It is part of minimally invasive surgery.

Arthroscopic surgery

Arthroscopy is a type of endoscopy. It is performed through small incisions (portals) through which a camera and motorised cutting instruments are introduced.

Today it is common to operate on the ankle, the subtalar joint and the metatarsophalangeal joint. Conditions that can be treated include bony impingement, osteochondral lesions and osteoarthritis.

Reconstructive surgery

Reconstructive surgery of the ankle and foot aims to restore the anatomy as close as possible to its state before the injury. In these cases there are bone and soft-tissue defects that must be filled.

Procedures are divided into prosthetic (total and partial prostheses, including 3D-printed ones) and non-prosthetic (autograft or allograft, realignment osteotomies, ligament reconstruction, among others).
