Microscopic reconstructive surgery

 Microscopic reconstructive surgery at Al Kindi Hospital

The following treatment services are performed at Al Kindi Hospital for microscopic reconstructive surgery:

• Hand surgery

Microscopic reconstructive surgery doctors who perform hand surgery seek to restore hand, limb and finger function. Hand repair surgery is performed for a variety of reasons, including hand injuries, rheumatic diseases (such as osteoporosis) and arthritis, which changes and damages the bones of the hand.

Surgeons perform many operations, such as fracture repair, tendon release and repair, repair of injured limbs, treatment of hand deformities caused by birth defects, reconnection of fingers and amputated limbs and reconstructive surgeries of soft tissues, bones and nerves using microsurgery techniques.

In addition, hand and wrist fracture surgery is performed at Al Kindi Hospital to help the patient start moving better after the operation.

• Peripheral neurosurgery

Reconstructive microsurgery doctors deal with peripheral nerve diseases in the upper and lower extremities, and these problems are addressed with microsurgery techniques. Direct repair of the injured nerve, nerve grafting and reconstruction are performed through microsurgery techniques using a surgical microscope. Delayed detection of neurological deficit can be treated by moving tendons and muscles.

Peripheral nerve problems can also lead to chronic neurological pain, which can be treated surgically by removing neuron tumors, reshaping or transferring the rest of the nerve.

Chronic nerve pressure syndromes are treated by relieving pressure on the nerve using minimally invasive surgical techniques.

• Treatment of congenital limb deformities

Repairing congenital limb deformity requires precise surgical skill because it is a complex condition that needs to be treated and corrected for all affected bones, nerves and muscles in order to get functional and aesthetic treatment at the same time.

• Breast restoration

When one or all of the breast is removed due to breast cancer, reconstructive surgery doctors reconstruct the missing breast. This procedure can be performed using breast tissue brought from a person’s abdomen, or by using breast implants. If there is not enough tissue, the tissue extender is first placed in that area and is replaced by a transplant after 1-2 months.

• Osteoarthritis and arthritis

Degenerative joint diseases (osteoarthritis) and inflammation (arthritis) are often painful and hinder the movement of the hand and prevent its normal function. When medications cannot control pain or when the joint degeneration phase is advanced, there is a wide range of surgical procedures such as laparoscopic joint damage repair, the integration of the total or partial joint, the implantation of an artificial joint to relieve pain and restore function.

Reconstructive microsurgery goals

Microscopic reconstructive surgery is a complex process that requires high accuracy.  And it aims for:

• Maintaining limbs
• Restoring party function

For the leg, reconstructive surgery aims to maintain a weight-bearing and walking function. As for hands, this includes movement and the ability to do things.

Our treatment does not stop when the patient leaves al-Kindi Hospital, but when we ensure that the patient returns to normal and improves the function of his or her injured limbs.

After discharge, patients may need rehabilitation, depending on their health, type of injury and their family’s ability to provide care.
