Hip Prosthesis

The hip prosthesis is the surgical regeneration of the damaged tissue of people whose hip joint is severely calcified (osteoarthritis) or damaged. Thanks to the developing technology, this implementation has been applied very successfully for years in the hospitals we are working with. Hip Prosthesis surgery is usually performed in middle age and beyond. At the same time, the surgery is very successful in young people with dysplasia of avascular necrosis disorders between the ages of 20-40 .

Surgery steps:

Necessary blood tests are performed before the operation.
The operation is performed with general anesthesia or local anesthesia.
Damaged bones are removed and replaced with prostheses.
The skin and underlying tissues are closed by suturing.

Sports Injuries

Two main reasons of sports injuries ;

Personal Factors: Psychological factors, previous injuries, undertreated injuries, physical deficiencies (muscle weakness, joint limitation, insufficient flexibility), fatigue and overload, anatomical problems, muscle stiffness (due to excessive exercise or infection), age, gender .

Environmental factors: Doing sports without training, using poor quality materials, unfavorable weather conditions , unfavorable floor, breaking the rules.

Knee Arthroplasty

The aim is to make the patient's joint painless and mobile. It is preferred to apply to the patient who is 65 years or older but it can be applied to the other age groups if there is pain and deformity, trouble walking and climbing stairs, limitation of movements, restriction in daily activities.

Osteoarthritis can occur in the knee joints for a variety of reasons. The most important causes are aging, overweight, meniscus injuries, rheumatological diseases, traumatic cartilage lesions, etc.

Apart from prosthesis ,surgical methods may also be a part of the treatment process in some cases. As an example of these situations, starting sports without warming up and pushing the knees excessively can cause damage to the cartilage tissue in this area, rupture of the ligaments or tear in the meniscus, which leads to knee disorders. Meniscus which appears in the knee joint, intra-articular inflammation, thickening of the joint membrane, osteoarthritis of the knee joint and fractures occurring in the joint, articular cartilage, anterior cruciate ligament and a capsule that occur in the knee joint are treated with arthroscopic surgery.

What should be considered to avoid sports injuries?

The person's health and physical condition must be suitable for the sport to be performed. Warming up and stretching before doing sports makes the body ready for sports and reduces the risk of injury and disability. Resting before and after sports, doing sports on the appropriate ground with appropriate clothes and shoes, not keeping the sports time too long, not doing sports on a full stomach and adequate water consumption are the important factors that reduce the risk of sports injuries and disability.
