Personalised solutions to improve shoulder mobility and reduce pain, even in the most complex of cases.
the shoulder prosthesis eliminates chronic pain caused by arthrosis or severe injuries, restoring freedom in daily movements.
where possible, arthroscopic techniques make it possible to restore the majority of mobility, enabling a return to daily activities.
reduces recovery time and complications, ensuring a faster and less painful post-operative experience.
Wear and tear of cartilage leads to chronic pain, stiffness and limited mobility. Over time, the joint loses its ability to move, making even the simplest of actions such as dressing or combing one's hair more difficult.
Rotator cuff injuries can cause weakness and pain, impairing the normal use of the arm. When tendons cannot be repaired, prosthetic surgery is the only way forward.
Severe or poorly consolidated fractures of the humerus can cause deformity and a limitation in function. In these cases, prosthetic surgery is often the only solution to recover mobility.
Shoulder prosthetic surgery is an effective solution for patients suffering from these problems and who have not responded to conservative treatment. With surgery, joint function can be restored, the pain reduced and quality of life improved.
In clinically suitable cases, Dr Trevisan uses state-of-the-art surgical techniques
to ensure that surgery is less invasive and recovery is faster.
This method allows injuries and fractures to be treated with small incisions, reducing trauma to the surrounding tissues and accelerating the healing process. Ideal for patients with degenerative diseases or tendon injuries.
An innovative technique that is implemented by inserting a biocompatible "balloon" into the shoulder. The aim is to create space and improve movement in patients with severe rotator cuff injuries, particularly in cases where complete repair is not possible.
Dr Trevisan offers two main types of prosthesis, selected according to the patient's specific condition:
We perform a thorough assessment of your case, using diagnostic tests such as X-ray and MRI. We then choose the most suitable type of surgery and prosthesis based on the results.
After anaesthesia (local or general), surgical access is undertaken. In most cases, arthroscopy is undertaken using small incisions. For more severe cases, however, an open approach is necessary.
The damaged parts of the joint are removed, and the prosthesis (anatomical or inverted) is implanted with precision. During the procedure, we check the stability and functionality of the prosthesis.
Once the surgery has been completed, the shoulder is immobilised with a brace. From this point on, you will begin a rehabilitation programme to gradually regain mobility, with full recovery expected within 3–6 months.
• Because I use state-of-the-art techniques and materials, offering customised solutions to suit the clinical picture and the specific needs of each patient.
• Because I have over 20 years of experience in the field of orthopaedics, during which I have worked with the best orthopaedic institutions in Italy and throughout Europe.
• Because I always place the patient at the centre, explaining every step of the procedure in a clear and comprehensive manner, to ensure that the treatment process is smooth and transparent.
• Because I keep up-to-date with the latest techniques and best practices in orthopaedics, integrating innovation to deliver excellent results and rapid recovery.
Thanks to local or general anaesthesia, you will feel no pain during the procedure. Normal post-operative pain is managed with pain-relieving drugs, and is gradually reduced during rehabilitation.
Recovery varies from patient to patient, but typically lasts between three and six months. After surgery, you will follow a rehabilitation programme to improve mobility and shoulder strength.
As with any surgery, there are risks, although these are rare. These include infection, nerve injuries, joint stiffness and problems with the prosthesis. Nevertheless, modern techniques minimise these risks.
Modern prostheses can last for many years. On average, more than 90% of shoulder prostheses are still functional after 10 years, and 80% after 20 years, depending on use and patient care.
Prosthetic shoulder surgery is suitable for patients who suffer from severe pain, that interferes with their everyday quality of life and are unable to find relief with conservative treatments such as physiotherapy or injections.
Done this too! Shoulder repaired, now a long rehabilitation and off we go. I sincerely thank the
OSS, NURSES, DOCTORS AND THE STAFF OF THE ORTHOPAEDICS OPERATING ROOM AND IN PARTICULAR THE DIRECTOR MICHELE TREVISAN of the Legnago hospital!!! Competent, kind and human people!!! REALLY
On August 2nd I was operated on by the exceptional team of Dr. Michele Trevisan at the orthopedic department of Legnago for a prosthetic hip resurfacing. I have no words for the results.....after two days standing without crutches. After 8 days able to drive a car.... crazy.... Dr. Trevisan is the only surgeon who performs this operation with anterior access, therefore without sectioning muscle groups. My thanks go to him.
My husband has just undergone hip replacement surgery and we were able to see the excellent medical staff, first and foremost Dr. Michele Trevisan and the professionalism, cordiality but above all the passion of the nursing staff and the social health workers!!!
When you encounter such excellence, it is obligatory to make it public: a standing ovation for all these professionals: THANK YOU!
It is easy to talk about Dr. Michele. His skills, his commitment, his innovative means, his dream of bringing the orthopedic department to the forefront are there for all to see. It is the human side of the person that strikes, he remembers the patient after a long time, always with a smile, if you meet him he stops for a word. I am grateful and thankful to Dr. Trevisan. Thanks to his patience and encouragement I faced knee and hip replacement surgery; I returned to walking as always, keeping in mind that I am 78 years old.... I recently attended one of his lectures, at the university for the elderly, he introduced himself as a doctor and not as a head physician.
My gratitude towards him is great: humanity and empathy are his characteristics: he cares about the person before the patient.
Does shoulder pain restrict your daily activities or prevent you from sleeping peacefully? Now is the time to take action. Thanks to Dr Trevisan's experience, together we can find the ideal solution to improve your quality of life.
