The Hand Surgery Unit of the Orthopedics and Traumatology Department at Medical Park specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of injuries and conditions affecting the hands, fingers, and wrists. Our goal is to restore functionality and appearance using advanced micro-surgical techniques while ensuring the best possible quality of life for our patients.
Conditions Treated in Hand Surgery
Hand and Finger Amputations
Partial or complete amputations require urgent medical attention. While complete amputations need immediate replantation to restore blood flow, partial amputations may allow limited time due to preserved circulation. The success of treatment largely depends on how quickly the severed part reaches the hospital.
Tendon, Nerve, and Vessel Injuries
Workplace and traffic accidents can cause severe injuries to tendons, nerves, and blood vessels in the hands. Untreated damage may lead to permanent functional loss or tissue death. Early surgical intervention is crucial for preserving mobility and organ health.
Hand and Finger Fractures
Due to their complex structure, hands and fingers are prone to fractures from falls, crushing, or twisting injuries. Symptoms include swelling, pain, and limited movement. While finger fractures usually heal more easily, hand fractures require careful treatment to prevent long-term impairment.
Nail Injuries, Ingrown Nails, and Deformities
Trauma or constant pressure may cause nail injuries, ingrown nails, or deformities. These conditions can result in pain, infection, or cosmetic concerns. Prompt treatment helps prevent complications and restore comfort.
Congenital Hand Anomalies
Extra fingers, fused fingers, or abnormal finger positioning can be corrected surgically. Treating congenital hand anomalies not only improves appearance but also supports better daily functionality.
Nerve Compression Syndromes
Carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel syndromes are common examples of nerve compression affecting the hands, wrists, or elbows. Symptoms include numbness, weakness, and reduced mobility. Micro-surgical techniques are highly effective in restoring function and relieving symptoms.
Hand Tumors
Benign and malignant tumors, including glomus tumors, ganglion cysts, and wrist tumors, may cause swelling or discomfort. Surgical removal is usually recommended, with regular follow-up to reduce recurrence risk.
Trigger Finger
Trigger finger, or stenosing tenosynovitis, causes locking, snapping, and pain in the fingers. If medication is not effective, micro-surgery can provide permanent relief and restore hand function.
Dupuytren’s Contracture
This condition causes tissue thickening in the palm, resulting in finger stiffness and bending. Mild cases may be managed with injections, while advanced stages require surgical removal of the thickened tissue and physical therapy for recovery.
Surgical Excellence in Hand Surgery
Due to the complex structure of the hand, surgical treatment requires exceptional precision. At Medical Park, our experienced specialists apply advanced micro-surgical techniques to achieve the best possible outcomes. Early evaluation by a specialist is essential to prevent progression and preserve long-term functionality.
