Ankle and Foot Surgery

Ankle and foot surgery at Gruppo San Donato carries forward the tradition of excellence in orthopedic innovation. Building on the groundbreaking contributions of Ospedale Galeazzi-Sant’Ambrogio, this specialty is internationally recognized for its pioneering advancements in surgical techniques.

Among its remarkable achievements are the medializing calcaneal osteotomy (MCO) and oblique osteotomy of the first metatarsal, both developed by the renowned Prof. Francesco Malerba. Additionally, the AMIC (Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis) technique, designed for arthroscopic treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus, has set a new standard in minimally invasive care.

This legacy of innovation ensures that patients receive cutting-edge solutions for foot and ankle conditions, delivered with precision and expertise.
