Cartilagine
Cartilage repair : arthroscopic technique
Cartilage reconstruction techniques by Autologous

Ear surgery has developed in recent decades thanks to the use of the operating microscope, subsequently the techniques of radiological diagnostics, axial tomography and magnetic resonance have enabled timely and accurate diagnostics. Electronic technology then made possible what seemed impossible (cochlear implants).
Knee
Total knee replacement (TKR): standard and minimally invasive technique
Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA): minimally invasive technique
Condrociti
Chondrocyte Implantation (ACI) : minimally invasive and arthroscopic technique
