Surgery - Surgical Treatment at Todua Clinic

Surgery, like many other branches of medicine, has made great progress in our century. If earlier only open surgeries were performed, today surgeons are increasingly using new, minimally invasive methods. Less trauma, a short rehabilitation period, and minimal probability of postoperative complications - are the main advantages of laparoscopic surgery. In addition, by means of revolutionary technologies, the surgeon has the possibility to have a much more detailed and cleaner image during the operation, which makes it much easier for him/her to perform the manipulation correctly.

Todua Clinic has always been distinguished by the introduction of new possibilities in modern medicine. The first operating theatre for the Thoracoabdominal Surgery Department started functioning in the clinic in 1995, and later, in 1997, the second operating theatre for neurosurgery was added to it, equipped with a German neurosurgical microscope preferred by the world's leading clinics at that time. 

Over the years, Todua Clinic surgeons have played a major role in the development of laparoscopic surgery in the country.

Today, surgeries of any complexity are performed in the ultra-modern equipped operating theatres of the clinic.
