Synovium Removal in Turkey
Synovectomy surgery is done to remove inflamed joint tissue (synovium) that is causing unacceptable pain or is limiting your ability to function or your range of motion. Ligaments and other structures may be moved aside to access and remove the inflamed joint lining. The procedure may be done using arthroscopy.
Synovectomies are commonly performed on the following synovial joints:
- ankle
- knee
- hip
- elbow
- shoulder
- wrist
- finger
Synovectomy can yield dramatic improvement in function and pain relief. Patients whose articular cartilage is largely intact usually experience the best outcomes.
