Latest Approach to Minimally Invasive Surgery - Until recently, patients needing surgery had to choose between traditional “open” surgery with a large incision or laparoscopy, which uses small incisions but cannot be used for all procedures. Now there is an innovative new option -- the da Vinci Surgical System uses breakthrough technology to provide a minimally invasive alternative that can be used for many complex surgical procedures.

Platelet Therapy -- Inflammation of the tendon, or tendonitis, is a painful condition that is common among both recreational and professional athletes.   Traditional treatments concentrate on reducing inflammation with medications or steroid injections.  BCH now offers a safe, effective alternative treatment - Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy - that uses a person’s own blood to accelerate healing.  To learn more, CLICK HERE.

Heart Valve Surgery no longer has to mean a large chest incision and a lengthy painful recovery. Surgeons at BCH can now repair or replace heart valves through a small incision between the ribs. This means less pain, faster recovery and dramatically less scarring. To learn more, CLICK HERE.

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) – A quick, safe and gentle laser surgery – is the latest advancement in the treatment of open angle glaucoma.

Journey Deuce Knee System - There is an exciting new alternative for active adults with debilitating knee arthritis. Instead of traditional total knee replacement, surgeons at BCH now offer the Journey Deuce Knee System, a resurfacing procedure that preserves the knee’s healthy bone and cartilage, replacing only the diseased portion of the joint. This can mean less post-operative pain, and quicker recovery. To learn more, CLICK HERE.

iMRI Guides Precise Brain Surgery -- BCH neurosurgeons utilize Colorado’s first (and only) intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) system to obtain detailed images of the brain during and immediately after surgery, while the patient is still in the operating room.  Surgeons use iMRI to locate hard-to-find tumor fragments and remove them without damaging other brain structures.  This advanced technology can improve the safety and efficiency of the surgical procedure and lessens the likelihood that a patient will need repeat surgery or radiation treatment.  To learn more, CLICK HERE.
