Cornea Transplant

Cornea is the transparent front part of the eye which allows the entrance of the light rays inside of the eye and transports them to the retina and from there it is transmitted to the brain where the perception of the image is realized. The normal cornea is a polished, aspherical, square-shaped asphalt surface, centered in the center and comes flat on the periphery. The cornea is constructed from collagen fibers mainly oriented in parallel way. Its transparency depends on the operation of a single cell layer that wears its inner surface and is not able to regenerate.

 

Cornea transparency, as well as its precision bargaining depends the most on the ability of the eye to convey the image to the retina.

 

For a successful cornea transplant it is necessary to use a healthy cornea from a dead donor. Corneas is selected, taken, certified and made available to surgeons by the "eye banks". One important point to be aware of concerning this procedure is that the result of the transplantations operation depends on the chosen cornea  as well as the techniques used and the professionalism of the physician.

 

If your cornea can not be cured or repaired, your ophthalmologist may recommend the cornea transplant.

 

All donated corneas are carefully tested to make sure they are healthy and safe to use.

There are different types of cornea transplants. In some cases, only the front and middle layers of the cornea are replaced. In others, only the inner layer is removed. Sometimes, the entire cornea should be replaced.

 

Planet Health will make sure to use their best experts in that field to help you returned home satisfied, safe and healthy.

Radiotherapy

Intraoperative Radiotherapy (IORT)

IORT is a type of advanced radiotherapy, unlike standard radiation therapy, which is applied to cancer surgery. IORT's objective is to provide direct radiation treatment to the tumor area, protecting healthy surrounding tissues. IORT shows perfect advantages when used in the stomach, pancreas, intestines, colon, breast, soft tissues, lungs, pediatric and gynecological tumors.

Standard radiation therapy requires a 6 week treatment, approximately once every 5 days.

While the advantage of IORT is that in this type of advanced radiotherapy technology, only a single IORT application dose is needed.

The hospitals with whom we cooperate have the latest technology in the field of medicine.

Regenerative Medicine-Stem Cells

Regenerative medicine is a procedure to create living and functional tissues to repair or replace some tissues or organs that lose their function due to their age, illness, injury or birth. Success in regenerative medicine can be achieved in two ways:

1. Encouraging some organs or tissues previously untreated in a way that they heal and treat themselves with stimulation of stem cells located in these tissues and organs through communicative or surgical communicative mechanisms.

2. Where the body can not repair itself, stem cells are obtained from a suitable donor, processed under laboratory conditions for re-transplantation or 3D transplantation of the cells produced by these cells and use of the technologies engineering for the tissues.

This new discipline of medical and life sciences summarizes all scientific research, including applications in immunology, cell biology, chemistry, tissue and biomaterial production, molecular biology, and regenerative and genetic medicine.

Rheumatology

It studies rheumatism, arthritis and other disorders of the articulations, muscles and ligaments.

Robotic Surgery

In robotic surgery, the robot is armed with a very high movement capability that is controlled remotely and which is used rather than the hand instruments controlled by the physician. Thanks to these arms, the robot imitates all motions of a human wrist and allows movement capability more than it does.

 
Clearer images can be obtained by the robotic surgery systems. Operations are performed by very small-sized incisions and better aesthetic results are obtained. Side effects such as bleeding and leakage that might be occurred in post-operative period and extend the hospital stay can also be reduced.

Varicose Veins

Veins have the task of returning the blood to the heart. When they become visible and swollen they are called varicose veins.

 
The blood passes from the surface veins to the deep veins, and when the muscles are in activity, they push the blood to the heart. The veins have a valve of one direction and when the vein walls lose elasticity, the valves do not function properly and the blood flows back to the surface veins by swelling them.


Varicose vein treatments:


Sclerotherapy - Treatment consist in injecting a chemical solution into the vein to achieve the blockage of the vein in order not to carry blood anymore. Mainly used for spider veins and small varicose veins.


Laser Therapy and Radio frequency - These are new, minimal invasive treatments methods for varicose veins, which work by applying heat to the veins, forcing the veins to shrink and close. The blood can not pass through these veins and will look for other healthy veins.


Surgery - a classic form of varicose vein treatment.
