It was an amazing week!
At the invitation of Prof. Xuxingquan Xu and Prof. Qing Jiang from the Jiangsu Orthopaedic Association in Nanjing, China, we had the honor to participate in the International Knee Days Summit China as representatives of Europe: Tomasz Piontek (Poland), Prof. MUDr. Petr Zeman, Ph.D., MBA (Czech Republic), and Prof. Dr. med. Sven Scheffler (Germany).
The main topics included reconstruction and knee instability treatment.
Our session was a true example that medicine is global and knowledge knows no borders.
Many thanks to the organizers for their warm hospitality and excellent event! Many thanks to our host and representative from Promedica, Petra Ghanem, for her support and guidance throughout the event.

t was a great day in the OR!
At the invitation of Biovico, two orthopedic surgeons — Piotr Neyman and Wojciech Zacha — spent the entire day with us in the operating theatre.
They came to observe our surgical techniques, including cartilage reconstruction, meniscus regeneration with membrane Geistlich Ortho in complex injuries, as well as ACL reconstruction, meniscus reconstruction with autograft, hip arthroscopy, and hamstring reattachment after avulsion injury.
It was a truly busy and productive day. Spending a full day in the OR is one of the best and most effective forms of education.
A huge thank you to my colleagues Jakub Naczk and Patrick Buliński, my fantastic nursing and anesthesia teams, our OR and ward staff, and the administrative team for making this possible.
Rehasport — teamwork, precision, and shared knowledge.

As a former President of this organization, I feel truly proud and deeply believe that educating younger generations makes a real difference. The more we know, the more we can help our patients. A huge thank you to the organizers and the Board PTArtro for their incredible work — and to , without whom this event wouldn’t have been possible! 🙌
A huge thank you to all participants and speakers, especially those who traveled from far away — from many continents, including Mexico, China, and all around the world.

53-year-old patient with a degenerative meniscal tear — so-called “cleavage tear” with associated meniscal cysts.
This type of lesion often leads to meniscal extrusion, complex tears, and eventually tissue degradation.
But there is an option for biological repair.
Using AMMR (Arthroscopic Matrix-based Meniscus Repair) with membrane ( ), bone marrow injection, and meniscus stabilization, we can support and enhance healing.
In this case, MRI and arthroscopy confirmed the formation of scar tissue within the tear — goal achieved ✅
What was once considered “untreatable” due to poor healing potential can now be successfully managed with biological augmentation.
📊 In our clinical series, we’ve demonstrated 88% good outcomes many years after surgery.
👉 Save the Meniscus!

Orthopedics is a field full of innovation
Here is my version of a technical anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, presented within the concept developed by Robert Śmigielski, Rainer Siebold, Christian Fink.
Our paper published in 2023 demonstrates a simple yet precise technique using: standard arthroscopic instruments, 1–2 drill bits (5 and 5.5 mm),
aiming guides available in any ACL reconstruction set. Smith+Nephew, Marc Chamieh , Wassim Mourad
The use of the Ultra Star system by Smith & Nephew enables graft fixation on the cortices, allowing for anatomical reproduction of the flat femoral footprint and the C-step in the tibia.
This technique leads to improved clinical outcomes and more stable results.

Last week was a truly busy and inspiring time — two capitals in just a few days: Rome and Istanbul.
First, I attended a conference on cartilage, and then I had the honor of being an invited guest at the XVII Turkish Congress of Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, and Knee Surgery.
I shared our achievements, methods, and techniques developed at Rehasport Clinic | Poznań in the treatment of , , and joint injuries.
Meeting friends and colleagues in these two beautiful cities of the world gives me new energy and motivation for further creative work.
Many thanks for the invitation!

✨ Sharing a milestone from my surgical journey ✨
Several years ago, together with Ciemniewska-Gorzela MD PhD, and later modifying the technique alongside Paweł Bąkowski, MD PhD, we developed a surgical method that has saved the function of many patients.
This technique allows us to reconstruct the tendon in the most challenging situations – repeated ruptures, lack of tendon continuity, severe atrophy – when traditional options offer no solution.
We proved that patients can walk without crutches and start exercising as early as 2 weeks after surgery, while in other techniques they remain immobilized for months.
Today, together with Bartosz Kiedrowski and Jakub Kaszyński MD PhD, Paweł Bąkowski, MD PhD , Naczk MD PhD Rehasport TEAM we are proud to present the functional outcomes as well as the rehabilitation protocols we designed. These methods ensure that patients not only recover but can also return to sport.
💪 This outstanding teamwork at Akademia Rehasport gives us effective tools to treat even the toughest cases. I am grateful to work in such a great TEAM.

This week we had the pleasure of welcoming distinguished scientists Artur Banach and Ross Crawford from The Prince Charles Hospital, Brisbane (Australia) to our operating theatre at Rehasport.
A year ago, we jointly published the first article in a series in Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, addressing one of the major causes of patellar cartilage injuries. Our ongoing collaboration now focuses on finding the most effective treatment strategies for patients.
Our work is bringing tangible results – both in the form of successfully treated patients and the development of innovative surgical techniques that address the underlying biomechanical challenges.
Spending time together in the operating theatre was truly inspiring. For us as scientists, such collaboration and discussion are the best ways to exchange ideas, challenge perspectives, and seek the truth.

Silnik gigantycznego statku zepsuł się i nikt nie mógł go naprawić, więc zatrudnili inżyniera mechanika z ponad 30-letnim doświadczeniem.
Bardzo dokładnie obejrzał silnik, od góry do dołu. Po obejrzeniu wszystkiego, inżynier wypakował torbę i wyciągnął mały młotek.
Delikatnie w coś uderzył. Wkrótce silnik znów ożył. Silnik został naprawiony!
Tydzień później inżynier wspomniał właścicielowi statku, że całkowity koszt naprawy gigantycznego statku wyniósł 20 000 dolarów.
„Co?!” powiedział właściciel. „Prawie nic nie zrobiłeś. Daj nam szczegółowy rachunek".
Inżynier odpowiedział mu: „Odpowiedź jest prosta:”
Pukaj młotkiem: 2 dolary
Wiedza, gdzie pukać i ile: 19 998 dolarów
Ważne jest docenianie czyjejś wiedzy i doświadczenia... ponieważ są one wynikiem zmagań, eksperymentów, a nawet łez.
Jeśli wykonam pracę w 30 minut, to dlatego, że spędziłem 20 lat, ucząc się, jak to zrobić w 30 minut. Jesteś mi winien lata, a nie minuty.

This weekend, we held another SNACE cadaver course — this time for doctors from the Czech Republic. 🇨🇿
It was a great pleasure to lead the course for our Czech colleagues together with my friends from Plzeň, Petr Zeman, and from Prague, Jakub Kautzner.
A big thank you, as always, for the excellent organization and cooperation to the Czech team — Petra Ghanem and Ivona Felbingerová, to the Warsaw LAB team, and of course to Dorota Wojciechowska, the brain behind the operation.
