Our Hand Microsurgery Options
At GMS Cyprus, we provide an extensive selection of hand microsurgery procedures to effectively treat a wide range of hand injuries, deformities, and conditions. Here’s an overview of our hand microsurgery options:
Trigger Finger Release
Trigger finger (stenosing tenosynovitis) occurs when a finger gets stuck in a bent position and suddenly snaps straight. Our surgeons release the affected tendon to alleviate stiffness and restore normal finger movement.
Trigger Thumb Release
Similar to trigger finger, trigger thumb causes the thumb to get caught in a bent position. We offer a trigger thumb release procedure that focuses on relieving the tendon tension in the thumb.
Dupuytren's Surgery
Dupuytren’s contracture is a condition where the tissue under the skin in the palm thickens and forms nodules, leading to finger deformities. Dupuytren’s surgery can remove the affected tissue, improving hand function and reducing the risk of permanent contracture.
Suturing Tendons
When tendons in the hand are injured, they may require precise suturing to restore their function. Suturing tendons is a highly specialized procedure that helps the hand regain strength and mobility, especially after trauma or surgery.
Suturing Nerves
Nerve injuries in the hand can lead to numbness, weakness, and loss of function. Our nerve suturing procedures aim to repair the damaged nerves, providing improved sensation and movement after the injury heals.
Hand Raising
Hand raising is a procedure to treat certain forms of hand paralysis or weakness, helping to restore movement and prevent deformities caused by muscle imbalance or nerve damage.
Carpal Tunnel Release
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that causes numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. Carpal tunnel release surgery relieves pressure on the median nerve, reducing symptoms and improving hand function.
Ganglionectomy
Ganglion cysts are noncancerous lumps that commonly form on the wrist or hand. Ganglionectomy involves removing these cysts to relieve pain and improve hand function, particularly when they restrict movement.
Removing a Tumor from the Hand
Whether benign or malignant, tumors in the hand can cause pain and affect hand function. We offer tumor removal surgery to eliminate growths and restore the appearance and functionality of the hand.
Fracture Repair
Fractures in the hand and fingers can impact daily activities and cause long-term disability if not treated properly. Our expert surgeons perform fracture repair surgeries to realign bones and promote proper healing.
Nail Repair
A traumatic injury to the nail bed can cause deformity or permanent damage. Nail repair surgery aims to restore the nail to its natural shape and appearance, improving both function and aesthetics.
Stump Design
For patients who have undergone amputation, stump design surgery can help create a functional and cosmetically acceptable stump, improving prosthetic fitting and hand function.
Broken Finger
A broken finger can be a painful and limiting injury. We provide specialized treatments to repair broken fingers, including realignment, fixation, and rehabilitation to ensure full recovery.
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is a painful condition caused by overuse of the forearm muscles. Tennis elbow surgery may be recommended when conservative treatments fail, to release tension and relieve pain.
Golf Elbow
Similar to tennis elbow, golf elbow (medial epicondylitis) is caused by repetitive motion and overuse of the forearm muscles. Surgical intervention may be needed to treat persistent symptoms that don’t respond to physical therapy or other treatments.
Radius Fracture
A radius fracture involves a break in one of the two bones in the forearm. Our team specializes in repairing radius fractures using advanced surgical techniques to ensure proper healing and function.
Glomus Tumor
Glomus tumors are rare, benign growths that can develop in the hand, often causing intense pain. Our surgeons are skilled at removing these tumors while preserving the surrounding tissue and functionality of the hand.
Scaphoid Fracture
The scaphoid is one of the bones in the wrist, and fractures in this area can be difficult to treat. We use precision surgical techniques to repair scaphoid fractures and prevent long-term complications such as arthritis or chronic pain.
Understanding Glomus Tumor at GMS Cyprus
A glomus tumor is a rare, typically benign tumor found beneath the nail or in the fingertip, causing sharp pain, especially in response to cold or touch. These tumors affect the glomus body—a component that regulates temperature. Treatment often involves precise removal of the tumor, which relieves pain and restores function.

Testimonials
After a consultation with Dr. Amir, I was surprised to learn that my health insurance does not guarantee that he will be the surgeon to perform the procedure.
That is when I contacted GMS, who explained how I could have the surgery performed by the physician of my choice - which gave me peace of mind.
It is very important for me to share my experience as the service I received through GMS exceeded any similar experience in Israel:
From the beginning I was assigned a GMS representative from Israel, who explained in detail what my experience would be and answered all my questions about the operation and the treatment process. (Thanks, Roy!)
All I had to do was fill out the application form.
GMS representatives took care of everything themselves!
They contacted the insurance company on my behalf and even had them check the status of the application until the financial commitment for the surgery was received.
We agreed with on the surgical date, booked the flights at a convenient time for me and also dealt with the hotel reservation. The GMS staff even reviewed the menu and took any dietary restrictions into consideration on my behalf.
We were picked up from the airport in Larnaca, Cyprus where we met the wonderful Oria, who accompanied us throughout the entire visit and took care of every detail; from registration to preparation for the operation.
This is essentially a VIP service that made the entire experience relaxed and stress free. The assigned coordinators continued caring after my return to Israel. They were interested in my recuperation post operatively and also ensured all financial matters were dealt with; all this, by the way, without any commissions or payouts on my part, but directly with my insurance. In a word - an amazing experience! In short - I recommend it!
Thank to GMS, thank you Roy, thank you Uriah and thank you Dr. Oron.
I needed a unique procedure which is not performed in Israel and I turned to them.
Over a telephone conversation with GMS representative Roy, I felt caring attention and confidence that he would help in everything. He accompanied us throughout the entire process, before the flight and even after.
In addition to Roy, we would like to sincerely thank Oriya, our allocated Israeli speaking patient coordinator of the company in Cyprus.
Even before our departure, Oriya was in touch with us helping with any issues and made sure that we arrived fully prepared - taking into account the smallest details; even to the point of finding out our food preferences, and despite the late hour of our arrival at the hotel, she ensured an exquisite meal was waiting for us in the room. Oriya greeted us upon arrival and truly made us feel like we were her personal guests. She accompanied us throughout the entire day of the operation - attentively, with endless care and continued patience.
I felt like I had a good friend with me in the hospital. This kind of treatment doesn’t happen very often... At the end of the day we parted, hugging each other, and Oriya gave recommendations on where to go and what to do in the time remaining before returning home.
I just don't have enough words to thank GMS and Oriya for everything. I can only recommend with a reassurance that those who need it should use their services.
Roy – thank you for your patience, quick responses (minutes!), availability, caring and clear explanations! You are inimitable! Oriya - you are amazing! Thank you for every smile, hug, help, guidance, explanation... really! You are simply amazing!
Every time I was asked by friends and family about the surgery, I immediately started talking about your amazing service! I felt warmth and love, and everyone who was with me felt the same! We never stop talking about you, and really, only good things!
You have entered our hearts! Thank you very much for everything! I hope to see you in the future, under different circumstances.
