Our main specialties are reconstructive arm and hand surgery for individuals with tetraplegia and upper limb spasticity corrections after neurological disorders . We are a unique centre, created for highly specialized functional reconstruction of extremities. We focus on:

• Tetraplegic patients with spinal cord injuries where reconstructive hand surgery restore hand or arm function
• Patients with spasticity in arms/ hands after stroke or brain injuries. Patients with upper limb amputees were implanted electrodes help control the prosthesis. These patient groups have different needs, but they all have one common goal - to increase their quality of life by becoming more independent.
