Welcome to Martina Orthopedics

At Martina Orthopedics, we have extensive experience in orthopedic assessment and treatment as well as surgery for both children and adults.

We accept all referrals and treat patients of all ages. We work closely with physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and orthopedic technicians.

We assess and treat conditions including:

  • Fractures
  • Hip problems
  • Musculoskeletal pain (including knee, back, and foot pain)
  • Deformities (e.g., flat feet, hallux valgus, and bow legs)
  • Abnormal gait patterns
  • Sports injuries
  • Growth problems
  • Day surgery

Surgery

At our day surgery unit, we perform operations under local anesthesia. We perform procedures including:

Trigger finger occurs when one or more fingers lock or catch when making a fist. This is caused by local inflammation or swelling of the flexor tendon. Due to the tendon being thickened by inflammation, it becomes too tight within the tendon sheath, leading to clicking and locking of the finger. The surgeon makes an incision of approximately 2-3 cm in the palm at the finger and divides the ligament so that the tendon has more space.

With carpal tunnel syndrome, patients experience numbness/tingling in some fingers, thumb, index, and middle finger. This is due to compression in the carpal tunnel where the nerve passes at the palm. The doctor makes a longitudinal incision at the wrist and cuts through the band covering the carpal tunnel. This reduces pressure on the nerve and gives it more space. The operation is performed under local anesthesia and takes approximately 20-30 minutes.

Ganglion is a round protrusion connected to a joint or tendon. The protrusion consists of a hernia in the tendon sheath or joint capsule filled with synovial fluid. A mucoid cyst is a ganglion on the top of the finger over the outermost joint. The surgeon makes an incision of approximately 3-5 cm in connection with the ganglion/mucoid cyst and then surgically removes it.

The operation is performed under local anesthesia and takes approximately 20-30 minutes.

Hammer toe is a deformity in one of the smaller toes. It is common to simultaneously have a deviated big toe, called hallux valgus. The deformity develops slowly and the risk of developing hammer toe increases with age. Hammer toe can also occur when the front arch of the foot has collapsed. The shoe then presses on the part of the toe that protrudes. The doctor removes part of the skeleton in the toe and a flexible joint is formed. Initially, the toe becomes “loose” but soon stiffens. The toe also becomes slightly shorter. The operation is performed under local anesthesia and takes approximately 20-30 minutes.

Hallux valgus is a deviation of the big toe. Sometimes the toe joint is pushed out, creating a bump on the side of the foot. This can make it difficult to find shoes that fit and do not pinch the foot. Most women develop these problems, and it usually begins in middle age. The operation is performed under local anesthesia; there are different techniques for this and your orthopedist will assess what is best for you.

Hallux rigidus refers to arthritis in the innermost joint of the big toe. Arthritis means that the cartilage that normally covers the bone surfaces in the big toe joint has been damaged and become thinner. In severe arthritis, the cartilage is completely absent, so that the bone is exposed. This causes problems with pain and reduced mobility.

Exostosis is a bone growth on the skeleton that can occur after an injury to the skeleton; often the cause is unknown. It can occur anywhere on the body. The operation involves removing the growth. The operation is performed under local anesthesia and takes approximately 15-30 minutes. You will rest for a short while before going home.
