We provide advanced surgical and diagnostic procedures aimed at improving outcomes and ensuring recovery of orthopedic conditions, including,

1. Knee Procedures

• Total Knee Replacement: A procedure where the entire knee joint is replaced with artificial components/ advanced prosthetics to relieve pain and restore mobility.
• Partial Knee Replacement: A less invasive surgery replacing only the damaged part of the knee.
• Robotic Knee Replacement: Precision-guided surgery using robotic technology for enhanced accuracy and outcomes.
• Knee Osteotomy: Realignment surgery for bow legs or knock knees, preserving the natural joint and delaying the need for knee replacement.
• Revision Knee Replacement: Surgery to replace failed knee implants.
• Intra Articular Injections: Steroid, PRP, and Viscosupplementation injections for pain relief and joint function improvement.

2. Hip Procedures

• Total Hip Replacement: Replacement of the entire hip joint with artificial components to restore function.
• Bipolar Hip Replacement: A partial hip replacement, commonly performed for hip fractures in elderly patients.
• Revision Hip Replacement: Replacement of failed hip implants, addressing issues like loosening or infection.
• Ceramic Hip Replacement: Hip replacement with ceramic components for young, active patients.
• Dual Mobility Hip Replacement: Innovative hip replacement design to reduce dislocation risks, especially in revision surgeries.

3. Shoulder Procedures

• Hemiarthroplasty: A partial shoulder replacement procedure, often performed for fractures, where only the damaged part of the joint is replaced to restore shoulder function and reduce pain.
• Reverse Shoulder Replacement: Reversal of the normal shoulder joint structure to improve arm movement for patients with severe shoulder arthritis or rotator cuff issues.
• Total Shoulder Replacement: Replacement of the entire shoulder joint with artificial components to improve mobility and alleviate pain in patients with severe arthritis or joint damage.

4. Sports Procedures/Arthroscopic procedures

   Knee :

• ACL Reconstruction: Repairing torn knee ligaments to restore stability after injury.
• PCL  Reconstruction: Surgical reconstruction of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) to stabilize the knee after injury and restore mobility.
• MPFL Reconstruction: Stabilizing the kneecap to prevent dislocations.
• Meniscal Repair and Meniscectomy: Procedures to repair or remove damaged knee cartilage.
• Osteochondral Autograft Transfer System (OATS): A procedure where healthy cartilage from another area is transferred to a damaged knee area, helping restore knee function and relieve pain.

   Shoulder :

• Bankart’s Repair: A procedure to repair torn ligaments in the shoulder, especially useful for patients with recurring dislocations, to stabilize the shoulder joint.
• Labral Repair: A procedure to repair the labrum, the cartilage ring that supports shoulder stability, often damaged in sports or accidents.
• Cuff Repair: Surgical repair of torn rotator cuff tendons to relieve pain and restore shoulder strength and movement.      
• Subacromial Decompression: A minimally invasive surgery to relieve shoulder impingement, improving mobility by reducing pressure on tendons.
• Capsular Release for Frozen shoulder: A procedure to loosen the tightened shoulder capsule in cases of frozen shoulder, allowing for improved mobility and reducing stiffness.

5. Pediatric Orthopedic Procedures

• Pediatric Trauma Surgery: Specialized treatment for fractures and bone injuries in children.
• Growth Modulation Surgery: Correcting growth-related d deformities like knock knees or bow legs through growth plate management.
• Osteotomy for Deformities: Realignment surgeries for correcting bow legs or knock knees in children.

6. Trauma Surgeries

• Open Reduction and Fixation: Surgical procedures to align and stabilize fractures and dislocations.
• Pelvic and Acetabular Trauma Surgery: Specialized reconstruction and complex procedures to treat pelvic fractures and acetabular fractures.
• Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO): Advanced techniques to repair fractures with minimal tissue damage and small incisions.

The Department of Orthopedics is equipped with advanced technology, ensuring precision and faster recovery for our patients. We offer:

• Robotic-Assisted Surgery Systems: For precision-guided joint replacements.
• Minimally Invasive Surgery Tools: Enabling faster recovery and minimal tissue damage.
• Advanced Trauma Systems: Including titanium implants, locking plate systems, and contoured implants for osteoporotic bone.
• Modern Joint Replacement Implants: Using oxinium, ceramic-on-poly, high-crosslinked polyethylene, and mobile bearing surfaces to ensure durability and mobility.
• Custom-built Prosthesis: For revision surgeries, using advanced materials like trabecular metal and custom prosthetics.
