Medical facilities in Poland have reported significant surgical innovations. In Słupsk, a surgical team at the Wojewódzki Szpital Specjalistyczny, led by Dr. Daniel Maliszewski, performed Poland’s first microsurgical procedure aimed at supporting Alzheimer’s disease treatment. This experimental surgery targeted the glymphatic system to assist the brain’s natural detoxification by clearing harmful metabolites like tau proteins and amyloid.

Additionally, the Pomnik Chrztu Polski Hospital in Gniezno prepared to perform one of Europe’s first shoulder endoprosthesis implantations utilizing augmented reality (AR) and intraoperative navigation. This technology uses head-mounted displays to provide surgeons with real-time parameters to increase precision and recovery speeds.
