Traumatology

“Minimal access surgery” the name itself is self explanatory; it means exploring and managing the bony and soft tissue pathologies using minimal incision. The advantages of doing so are to minimize both the size of surgical incisions as well as the trauma to surrounding soft tissues while accomplishing the same surgical goal.

In orthopaedics, this can mean the difference between exposing the entire joint through a large, open incision and using small, targeted incisions to address only the problem area. This results in less risk during surgery, less post-operative pain and shorter recovery times.

After anaesthesia and asepsis, the introduction of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is called the third patient-friendly revolution in surgery. Through continuous development of arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgical techniques, instruments, and implants paired with sophisticated digital navigation technologies, minimally invasive trauma surgery will be reaching gold standard of treatment in the near future.
