UPDATES IN PROGRESS...

"The Hand is the Visible Part of the Brain - Immanuel Kant"

Welcome to my website, which is designed for my patients and for those interested in exploring common hand and upper extremity injuries, conditions, and treatments.

The human hand is an anatomically and functionally complex structure that enables us to interact with the environment. The wrist, elbow, and shoulder position and stabilize the hand for its precise function. We don't truly appreciate our hands until pain or injury limits our ability to perform daily activities.

As a fellowship-trained and board-certified orthopedic surgeon specializing in hand, wrist, and elbow surgery, I have the expertise to treat traumatic, acute, and chronic orthopedic conditions of the upper extremity. I am deeply committed to providing the highest quality of personalized care to my patients through up-to-date surgical techniques. In my office, patient care and satisfaction are of utmost importance. I pride myself on an unparalleled attentiveness to my patients and the art of orthopedic surgery.

​Thank you for visiting my website, and I look forward to meeting you.

Orthopedic Hand, Wrist & Elbow Specialist

Surgical Innovations: Carpal Tunnel Release

Imagine having surgery over your lunch hour and being able to return to work - immediately.

Patients of Kayvon Izadi, M.D., orthopedic hand and upper extremity surgeon at MD WEST ONE, have done just that after undergoing carpal tunnel release.

After administering a local anesthetic, making a 1-to-2-centimeter incision, then cutting the transverse carpal ligament – Dr. Izadi has his patients on their way and no longer suffering from carpal tunnel symptoms. The entire visit takes about one hour. 

Dr. Izadi's patients enjoy the ease of the experience and the ability to return to work the same day. "All carpal tunnel operations involve cutting the transverse carpal tunnel ligament to relieve pressure on the median nerve," Dr. Izadi said. The incision size and use of local anesthetic are what's different. This procedure is minimally invasive, and patients like the convenience of a local anesthetic. For cosmetic purposes, many of them prefer small incision." ​

​Wide Awake Hand & Wrist Surgery (WALANT)

Wide awake hand surgery is surgery of the hand and wrist is done without sedation, tourniquet, or general anesthesia. 

This new surgical approach involves injecting local anesthetic around specific nerves in hand and wrist. There is no need for general anesthesia, hospitalization, and the associated risks, expenses, and inconveniences. After wide awake hand surgery, you can immediately walk out of the operating room, go home, or back to work - just like you would after a dental procedure. 
​
As patients seek to minimize their medical costs and time away from work, wide-awake hand surgery is highly demanded. The technique is safe, effective, efficient, cost-effective, and increases patient and surgeon satisfaction.​

Worker's Compensation

When an employee sustains a work-related injury, the employer's work comp insurance (also known as workman's compensation or worker's compensation) pays for lost wages, medical costs, and rehabilitation for the injured employee. 

Most worker's compensation claims are orthopedic and require comprehensive, personalized evaluation and treatment plans. An injured employee may undergo evaluation and treatment by the employer's doctor of choice or one they choose. According to Nebraska law, injured workers have the right to select their evaluating and treating physicians, but specific rules do apply.

As an experienced orthopedic hand, wrist, and elbow specialist, I understand the unique challenges of work-related injuries and injured workers' needs. I firmly believe that early diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries are the keys to returning an injured worker to his job as soon as possible. 

At the same time, I have to make the worker's compensation documentation process efficient and timely for both the worker and the worker's compensation case manager. If you are a patient or a case manager searching for the right orthopedic specialist, I assure you that your care and satisfaction are my top priorities.
