Prosthetic Surgery
prosthetic surgery; These are surgical operations performed by placing a special alloy prosthesis that can perform the same function after the removal of the functional surfaces of the damaged joints . It is generally applied in hip, shoulder and knee joints. In particular, severe pain may occur as a result of deformation of the joints due to osteoporosis in advanced ages. When joint limitations accompanying these pains begin, prosthesis surgery is performed if the joint does not function as a result of imaging.
Physical examination is essential for diagnosis in prosthetic surgery.

Today, these surgical applications can also be performed robotically, allowing the patient to return to their social life more quickly. Robotic surgery, which allows the surgeon to see in three dimensions, ensures that the surgery is completed without errors with the help of a device that takes the wrist as a model. Three-dimensional imaging provides a significant convenience in the repair of small tissues and vessels, as it allows the surgeon to see nerves and vessels that are not possible to see with the eye. In addition, it provides serious advantages over traditional operations in terms of complications such as bleeding and pain in the patient, in terms of faster recovery time, and shortening the hospital stay.
