ISTITUTO ORTOPEDICO GALEAZZI IN FIGURES

JOINTS SURGERY IN ISTITUTO ORTOPEDICO GALEAZZI

Minimally invasive and arthroscopic surgeries of the shoulder, knee, elbow, ankle, wrist, and foot are also available in Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi.

Since the hospital establishment, orthopedists have performed 13,000 joint replacement procedures.

Galeazzi doctors conduct high-quality minimally invasive orthopedic surgery. The patient's joint restores quickly and completely reactivates in 2-3 weeks after the replacement.

Hip surgery

Hip reconstruction, revision, conservative and traditional surgeries are available in Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi.

About 550 patients come to Galeazzi each year to treat hip diseases. Orthopedists perform over 350 hip replacement procedures annually.

75% of patients, who go for hip revision in Italy, choose Galeazzi Orthopedic Institute. According to the hospital's data, specialists carry out over 400 reconstructive and revision hip surgeries each year.

Knee surgery

Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi is No.1 medical facility in Italy regarding the number of knee replacements performed. Orthopedists carry out 300 knee replacements every year.

Orthopedists perform knee replacement using PSI (Patient Specific Instrumentation), an innovative technology for joint prosthetics. PSI is computed-assisted which aims to facilitate the knee prosthesis implant.

Specialists develop a treatment plan for a patient using CT scan and PSI. This approach increases the accuracy of the knee replacement by several times.

Shoulder surgery

Surgeons perform arthroscopic operations (through small incisions) to treat shoulder degenerative diseases and traumas. They also perform reconstructive and open surgeries to help patients with severe shoulder diseases.

1,000 outpatients with shoulder problems visit Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi every year. 560 of them undergo surgery.

SPINE EXAMINATION

The unique 3D dimensional orthopedic visualization is applied in Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi. The method is called EOS.

EOS is an innovative radiographic equipment that provides images with a much lower dose of radiation than traditional X-Ray.

This method also allows creating 3D images without any deficiencies that helps an orthopedic surgeon to determine the disease stage and choose the most appropriate therapy.

Why is EOS better than X-Ray?

  1. EOS is faster — it takes a photo for 20 seconds.
  2. EOS produces lower radiation dose — a patient may undergo up to 120 examinations per day without harm to health.
  3. EOS creates a high-quality image — over 65,000 colors for precise diagnostic.
  4. EOS has no contraindications — patients with disabilities may undergo this screening.

SPINE SURGERY IN GALEAZZI ORTHOPEDIC INSTITUTE

Spine surgeons of Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi focus on the treatment of degenerative spine diseases and spine deformities. They prefer performing minimally invasive and reconstructive methods. Doctors accept patients and adults.

Orthopedists perform over 1,300 spinal fusion surgeries annually. During the operation, a doctor permanently connects 2 or more vertebrae in the spine that eliminate motions between them.

Doctors of Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi use XLIF surgical method. This surgery is performed to reduce the back pain caused by the degenerative disease.

XLIF surgery is minimally invasive. During the operation, surgeons make an incision in the patient's body side. It helps to skip major muscles of the back and keep them undamaged.

Patients with benign and malignant tumors in spine choose Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi because of the highest success rates in Italy. Over 400 tumors removals are performed at the center every year.

  • surgical therapy of craniofacial anomalies

  • post-traumatic reconstruction of the jaws
  • salivary gland removal
  • thyroid gland removal
  • maxillary neoplasms removal.

ORTHOPEDIC REHABILITATION IN ISTITUTO ORTOPEDICO GALEAZZI

Orthopedists provide shockwave therapy as one of the most effective methods of physiotherapy.

A doctor performs shockwave session under ultrasound guidance to observe pain zones. A patient undergoes a cycle of 3 courses each week. One session takes 6-9 minutes depending on the affected area size and energy density.

Shockwave therapy reduces pain and local inflammatory foci. After the therapy, a patient may notice some side effects (hematomas, acute pain).

Shockwave physiotherapy shows 60-90% success rate depending on the patient's pathology and medical history.

STEM CELL THERAPY

RE.GA.IN (Regenerative Galeazzi Institute) works on the premises of the Institute. Specialists provide stem cell therapy for joints, ligaments, tendons and bones diseases.

90% of patients are satisfied with stem cell therapy results according to Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi data. Stem cells or their derivatives are used to repair damaged cells and treat orthopedic injuries.

RE.GA.IN is among a few European medical facilities that have government permission to apply stem cells for treatments.

Privacy is an essential factor why patients prefer Galeazzi Orthopedic Institute for treatment with stem cells. The Institute carries out this innovative therapeutic method under the General Data Protection Regulation (EU law for patient's data protection and privacy).
