GICAM IN AFRICA
Our presence in Africa has been a solid one since 2003 at locations that are often complication-ridden on account of the political situation or terrorist threat.
Dr. Stefano Lucchina, often in charge of missions in African countries, has long hands-on experience with GICAM, together with strictly Swiss or Swiss-Italian medical staff, which guarantees healthcare service on a par with European standards.
Over the years, he has been able to determine which are the most recurring congenital hand anomalies and other hand issues.
Among them

BURN-RELATED CONTRACTURES
