Shalo-Lysenkov Operation

The Shalo-Lysenkov operation is a surgical intervention that is used to treat fractures of the bones of the lower extremities. This operation was developed by Soviet surgeon Nikolai Konstantinovich Lysenkov in the 1930s.

The Shalo-Lysenkov method involves the surgeon making an incision in the skin and muscles, and then removing the damaged areas of bone and replacing them with metal implants. After this, the surgeon sutures the wound and fixes the implants using special metal structures.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia, so the patient does not feel pain during the procedure. However, complications such as infections, bleeding, and nerve damage may occur after surgery.

In general, the Shalo-Lysenkov operation is an effective method for treating fractures of the lower extremities, but its use should be justified and performed only by experienced surgeons.



Shalo-Lysenkovsky operation is a surgical operation to amputate the foot or lower leg below the knee joint. Most often prescribed for the treatment of severe forms of chronic diseases, such as ingrown toenails, osteomyelitis of the foot. In the USA, this procedure is performed according to individual indications for each individual clinical situation. It differs from traditional amputation and has several advantages over other surgical interventions. Over the past two decades, this operation has been used throughout the world.
