Surgical treatment

​

Cartisem (Umbilical stem cell therapy)

It is a human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cell,

which is used as treatment agent for injured articular cartilage regeneration.

​

Micro-perforation

It is a remedy for cartilage regeneration that removes damaged cartilage and then punches

a fine hole to induce bone marrow stem cells to activate autologous cartilage regeneration.

​

Autograft cartilage transplantation

It is a cartilage regeneration therapy that takes some healthy cartilage instead

of damaged cartilage and transplants it.

​

Correction osteotomy

It is a surgical procedure that can reduce the load applied to the painful site of

knee joint by correcting the abnormal axis of the leg and reduce the pain.

​

Arthroscopy

Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure inspecting and treating joint diseasing by inserting

a subminiature camera and instrument into the joint through very small incision.

​

Total Joint Replacement Arthroplasty

Arthroplasty deadens the pain and secures the motion range by replacing damaged

joint region with harmless devices.

Sports clinic

​

Cruciate ligament reconstruction

It is possible to perform autogenous or allogenous tendon

reconstruction with considerations of the patient's age,

sex, and occupation. Depending on the type of graft, age, occupation,

and sex of the patient, the rehabilitation process will vary.

It will take at least six months to complete active sporting events after injury.

For patients with mild to moderate (Grade 1 and 2) injuries,

and if it was solitary injury, conservative management is enough as treatment.

For patients with severe degree instability

and for those with moderate Grade 2 injuries combined

with multiple ligamentous injuries, reconstruction

to prohibit further cartilage or meniscus injuries is necessary.

​

Acromioplasty, rotator cuff repair

Acromioplasty is the operation for widening of subacromial space to reduce shoulder

impingement. When rotator cuff is torn it should be repaired.

If not, it goes retracted and the tear size will be widened.

In case of too severely retracted cuff tear, so it’s impossible to repair,

reverse total shoulder arthroplasty is performed.

​

Meniscectomy or meniscus repair

Meniscal injury undergoes resection or repair depending on various factors including the location,

pattern, and the size of the rupture. After a total resection of the meniscus,

reports of the occurrence of arthritis may prompt then it needs meniscal transplantation.

In addition, a tibial osteotomy (HTO, High Tibial Osteotomy)

may be performed if the knee joint alignment is abnormal.

Non-surgical treatment

​

Trigger point injection

TPI Injection therapy is a typical non-surgical treatment to relieve pain by lowering the inflammation level.

​

Prolo-therapy

If muscle, tendon, ligament, cartilage, or tissues around bones and joints are weakened

and the functions are damaged, prolo-therapy strengthens

and regenerates according tissues by inducing cell proliferation.

​

Endoscopic Laser Neuro-Adhesive Peeling

After inserting a tube with a camera with a diameter

of 1 cm or less, proceed the approach while watching the screen.

​

Neuroplasty (Racz, Navi)

Neuroplasty is a procedure that injects medication into inflammatory focus by inserting

special subminiature catheter (a thin tube) after local anesthesia on coccyx.

​

High-frequency nucleoplasty

It is the treatment used to recover the deformed disk by applying

the high frequency thermal energy on the problematic disc.

​

DNA injection

It is a treatment that promotes DNA synthesis using components extracted from salmon.

​

Caudal endoscopy laser neuroadhesive ablatio

It is a treatment that removes the lesion through a laser by confirming the

direct disk and performing the epidural neuroplasty after inserting a laser

and an ultra-small endoscope camera of 1mm in diameter.

​

Neuroprotection

It is a treatment that uses long needles to spread the medications around painful nerves.

​

Epiduro Neucleoplasty

It is a minimally invasive procedure that injects medication into the site of lesion.

It is operated by inserting small catheter with 2mm in diameter and 40-50cm

in length through the coccygeal hiatus under C-arm guide. This catheter is placed at the lesion

site and it releases adhesion, removes inflammation, and reduces edema that makes pain.

​

Spine endoscopy

It is method that removes nucleus pulposus

of protruded disc with microsurgical tools and high-frequency tools

through endoscope after inserting the endoscopic trocar inside of disc.

Surgical treatment

​

Microscope disc removal

This procedure is performed when the degree of disk escape or damage is not severe.

​

Spinal fusion

It is a surgical process that fuses two or more spine (vertebrae) so that they heal into a single, solid bone.

This surgical process is performed to eliminate pain and or to restore stability to the spine.

​

Artificial disc replacement

It is surgery that removes the damaged disc that lost its function and replaces it to artificial disc.

​

Laminectomy

It is a surgical procedure that removes the lamina(the back hymen of the vertebrae covering spinal canal)

to create space, relieving pressure on the spinal cord or nerves.

​

Laminoplasty

This is a spinal cord decompressing technique that is used when spinal cord pressure occurs at multiple levels.

INTERNAL MEDICINE CLINIC

​

Diagnosis and treatment of early gastric and colorectal cancer.

Step-by-step treatment system from diagnosis to follow-up management.

​

Endoscopy Top 2

​

1. Gastro Endoscopic Examination

GI endoscopic examination is performed using an endoscope to screen esophagus,

stomach, and duodenum. This allows diagnosing gastrointestinal diseases,

tissue biopsy when necessary, and treatment as well.

​

2. Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy is an inspection performed to screen colon cancer and to examine the cause

of diarrhea, abdominal pain, blood in stool, or any abnormal findings on colon and rectum.

​

Reasons for early detection of stomach cancer colorectal cancer in Jungdong Hospital

​

A wealth of treatment experience

In the early stage of gastric cancer, the size of lesion is too small

(less than 5mm in diameter) to distinguish cancer from normal.

With rich experience in gastrointestinal endocrinology,

Jungdong Hospital offers endoscopic treatment and screening any

suspicious lesions to prevent further development and for early diagnosis.

​

State-of-the-art medical equipment at university hospital level

Jungdong Hospital utilizes state-of-the-art endoscopic instruments,

which are used only at some university hospitals in Korea, for examination

and treatment. Considering even small wrinkles of the mucous membrane

and characteristic features of blood vessels and using wavelength of light, the state-of-the-art

endoscopic device makes it possible to grasp fine-grained tissue.

​

Thorough hygiene management

Keeping good standards of hygiene and asepsis is vital aspect to prevent HCAIs.

Jungdong Hospital has 2 sterilizers to conduct thorough management

to prevent healthcare associated infection (HCAI) and any other secondary infection.

​

From diagnosis to treatment and management at once

If the polyps are found after the endoscopy, they can be removed immediately,

and you can receive safe treatment without side effects at 0% of the current perforation.

Patients who are likely to develop problems such as inflammation

are managed through inpatient treatment.
