The Quirónsalud Vitoria Hospital has taken a significant step in modernizing its Traumatology Service with the recent addition of doctors Nicolás Fiz and Ane Miren Bilbao. Both specialists, with a doctorate from the University of the Basque Country and a Cum Laude qualification, bring extensive experience in areas such as arthroscopic surgery, biological therapies, and advanced prosthetic surgery.
The primary focus of these new members is the development and implementation of innovative techniques aimed at preserving patients’ joints. Dr. Nicolás Fiz has highlighted that his methodology includes procedures such as hip arthroscopy and periacetabular osteotomy, designed to prevent the progression of initial injuries towards osteoarthritis. “Preserving the patient’s joint is fundamental,” stated Fiz, emphasizing that they have implemented methods such as capsule management without opening and hip ligamentoplasty, which promise to optimize the functional recovery of patients.
Meanwhile, Dr. Ane Miren Bilbao has emphasized the recent advances in prosthetic surgery, which now leans towards a less invasive approach. This shift allows for reduced damage to surrounding tissues, resulting in a faster and safer recovery for patients. In this regard, Bilbao mentioned the team’s accreditation in MAKO robotic surgery, cutting-edge technology that ensures greater precision in the placement of hip and knee prostheses.
Another highlighted aspect of the new service is the correction of deformities through osteotomies guided by personalized models. According to Dr. Bilbao, these surgical guides not only increase precision in interventions but also reduce patient damage, promoting faster recovery and significant improvement in functionality.
With these additions, the Quirónsalud Vitoria Hospital establishes itself as a leader in advanced traumatology, integrating clinical experience, applied research, and innovative technology to offer its patients comprehensive and high-quality service.
