Areas of clinical work

Below are the operations and treatments Dr. İnar Seidov performs, with the patient followed from diagnosis through surgery and recovery. Which approach fits a given case is decided only after examination.

01
Arthroplasty

Joint replacement

Replacing a destroyed joint with an implant, to remove the pain and give movement back. This is also the subject of Dr. Seidov's doctoral research.

Primary hip replacement

For coxarthrosis, avascular necrosis of the femoral head and hip dysplasia. The PhD dissertation dealt specifically with proximally fixed femoral components.

Primary knee replacement

Total or partial (unicompartmental) replacement in advanced gonarthrosis, depending on how much of the joint is destroyed.

Bilateral knee arthroplasty

Planned replacement of both joints in severe bilateral gonarthrosis.

Revision arthroplasty

Repeat surgery when an earlier implant has loosened, worn, migrated, or become infected.

Arthroplasty for femoral neck fracture

In older patients, a joint replacement rather than osteosynthesis, so the patient can be back on their feet as early as possible.

Replacement of smaller joints

Shoulder and other smaller joint replacement.

02
Arthroscopy

Minimally invasive joint surgery

A few small incisions and camera guidance — less trauma and a shorter recovery.

Knee arthroscopy

Meniscal tears, cruciate ligament injuries, loose bodies and cartilage defects.

Cartilage surgery

Restorative procedures for damage to the cartilage surface.

Sports injuries

Diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment of ligament and meniscal injuries.

03
Foot surgery

Foot and ankle

Foot deformities build up over years and are never only cosmetic — they change how load travels through the leg.

Hallux valgus correction

Surgical correction of valgus deformity of the great toe — the familiar protruding bunion.

Flat foot

Structural correction when the arch of the foot has collapsed.

Heel spur

Surgery when conservative treatment has not worked.

Toe deformities

Correction of toe deformities in children and adults.

04
Traumatology

Fractures and osteosynthesis

A fracture that is properly reduced and securely fixed is what allows the bone to heal straight and the joint to keep working.

Femoral osteosynthesis

Reduction and fixation with metalwork in fractures of the femur.

Humerus and clavicle fractures

Surgical repair of comminuted and displaced fractures.

Distal radius fracture

The most common wrist fracture: closed reduction and wire fixation.

Pelvic osteosynthesis

Structural repair in complex pelvic fractures, including the symphysis and the sacroiliac joint.

Fractures with bone loss

Bone grafting and extracortical metal osteosynthesis where bone stock has been lost.

Complications of fractures

Malunion, non-union (pseudarthrosis) and the consequences of old injuries.

05
Without surgery

Conservative treatment and pain management

Not every pain needs an operation. In many cases treatment starts here.

Intra-articular injections

Reducing pain and preserving joint function in osteoarthritis, arthrosis and arthritis.

Paravertebral blocks

For pain originating in the lower back and spine.

Osteoporosis assessment

Treatment of fragility fractures and prevention of further ones.

Frequently asked questions

About hip and knee arthroplasty

When is joint replacement surgery actually needed?

Surgery is usually considered when conservative treatment — physiotherapy, medication, intra-articular injections — no longer relieves pain or restores mobility. The decision is always individual, based on examination results.

How long does recovery take after surgery?

Initial mobilization usually begins 1–2 days after surgery. Full recovery, depending on individual factors, can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.

How long does an implant last?

With proper use, modern implants can last for decades. The exact lifespan depends on the implant type and the patient's physical activity level.

What should I bring to the first consultation?

Existing ultrasound, X-ray, or MRI results, if available, are helpful. You can send them ahead of time via WhatsApp.
