Hip Surgery

Hip prosthetic surgery represents one of the most important excellences present within Gruppo San Donato, thus IRCCS Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi boasts a long tradition in this kind of surgery for almost 60 years.

GSD is a leader on a national and international scale and is continuously proposing the most advanced and proven treatment methods: from the most modern and reliable surgical techniques, tissue- and bone-saving, to the use of biocompatible materials such as titanium alloys and ceramics that guarantee minimum wear of the prosthesis and its longer duration over time, up to the use of bone cements or highly stable prostheses in the elderly.
