ARTHOSCOPY
Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure in which a camera is inserted into a joint through a small incision to allows a doctor to look inside a joint to diagnose and treat issues. Arthroscopy is commonly used for problems in the knee, shoulder, elbow, ankle, hip, and wrist, and may be done under anaesthesia. Common conditions treated with arthroscopy include torn cartilage, arthritis, inflammation and more.
Knee arthoscopy
Your doctor may recommend a knee arthoscopy if you have a persistent knee problem that is not responding to standards treatments such as rest, physiotherapy, medication and more.
Common problems diagnosed and addressed by knee arthoscopy are as follows -
Meniscus damage: The meniscus is a piece of cartilage that acts as a cushion between the thigh bone and the shin bone. Tears in the meniscus can cause pain and stiffness, and they can be repaired or removed using arthroscopy.
Ligament tears (ACL / PCL): The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) are two major ligaments in the knee. Injuries to these ligaments can cause instability in the knee and can be repaired or reconstructed using arthroscopy.
Bone, cartilage or growth removal: If the knee experiences discomfort due to damaged bone or cartilage, bone spurs or cysts, your doctor may perform an arthoscopy procedure to remove damaged matter to bring relief to the knee.
Shoulder arthoscopy
During shoulder arthoscopy your doctor will insert a camera into your shoulder through small incisions in order the view and treat the inside structure clearly.
Typical problems addressed by shoulder arthoscopy are as follows -
Recurrent shoulder dislocation: In instances where the shoulder joint becomes unstable and experiences frequent dislocations, your doctor may perform an arthoscopy procedure to either repair labral cartilage tears or repair bone loss in order to bring relief to the joint.
Rotator-cuff tears: The rotator cuff is made up of muscles and tendons that attach the upper arm bone to the shoulder blade. Damaged to these can severely hamper shoulder and arm movements, cause pain and inhibit the person from carrying any weight. Arthoscopy may be performed at such times to remove damaged matter and reconstruct interior structures to provide support and relief.
Frozen shoulder: This is a condition characterised by pain, stiffness and perhaps limited mobility of the shoulder joint. Your doctor may perform an arthoscopy to surgically release the adhesions and tensions in the shoulder structure causing this discomfort.
ANKLE ARTHOSCOPY
Ankle arthoscopy may be recommended by your doctor as a minimalist invasive surgical procedure to address issues such as chronic ankle pain, limitations in range of able movement, complex fractures, ligament tears, inflammations and more. Such procedures typically have a short recovery time and high success rates.
ELBOW ARTHOSCOPY
Elbow arthoscopy may be used by your doctor to visualise the inside of the joint, remove damaged tissue, repair or reconstruct ligaments, or smooth out rough surfaces of bones. It's a less invasive procedure than traditional open surgery, which can help to reduce recovery time and minimize scarring.
JOINT REPLACEMENT
A joint replacement is done when a joint is damaged joint to the point it is hampering everyday activities and quality of life. During the procedure your doctor may replace a joint such as a hip or knee, with a prosthetic joint. The artificial joint, or implant, is typically made of metal or plastic and is designed to mimic the movement and function of a natural joint. Recovery time and success rates of the procedure vary depending on the joint being replaced and the patient's overall health.
Knee replacement
Knee replacement surgery or knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure in which the damaged or worn out parts of the knee joint are removed and replaced with an artificial joint (prosthesis) made of metal and plastic components. The surgery is typically recommended for individuals who have severe knee pain and perhaps even disability due to advanced osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or some other knee conditions that cause the knee joint to degenerate. Post the surgery patients typically resume activities they had to forgo on account of their knee related discomfort.
Shoulder arthroplasty
Shoulder replacement surgery, is a surgical procedure in which the damaged or worn out parts of the shoulder joint are removed and replaced with artificial joint (prosthesis) made of metal and plastic components. The surgery is typically recommended for individuals who have severe shoulder pain and/or disability due to advanced osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, and other conditions that cause the shoulder joint to degenerate.
Hip arthroplasty
Hip replacement surgery, also known as total hip arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure in which the damaged or worn parts of the hip joint are replaced with a prosthetic implant. The goal of the surgery is to relieve pain and improve hip function in people who have been suffering from chronic hip arthritis or other conditions that have damaged the joint. The surgery can be done as a traditional open surgery or as a minimally invasive surgery. Your doctor will provide you with options, based on your condition.
Fracture management
Breakages or changes in the outline of the bone which can be treated in numerous ways as determined by your doctor’s examination and prognosis. Bone traumas can be treated by using one or a combination of the following methods -
Immobilization - This involves using a cast, splint, or brace to keep the broken bone in place while it heals.
Surgery - In some cases, surgery may be necessary to repair the fracture or to realign the bones.
Physical therapy - After the affected bone has healed, your doctor may put you on a physical therapy regimen may be used to help regain strength and range of motion.
Medication - Pain medication may be prescribed to help manage pain and inflammation based on the type, location, and severity of the fracture.
Elbow arthroplasty
Elbow replacement surgery is a procedure which is considered complex in nature since the elbow has several moving parts that may be damaged due to rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic injuries or some other chronic issue. The surgery is typically recommended for people who have severe pain and loss of function in the elbow and have not responded to non-surgical treatment options. Post the procedure patients can expect greatly improved function of the elbow joint.
Sports injuries
In certain instances athletes may need mobility and flexibility training and/or sports injury rehabilitation and conditioning while others may need to address stability and motor control disorders/dysfunctions. Your doctor will create a personalised treatment plan for based on your particlar issue to get you back to desired levels of functioning. The typical steps of approaching diagnosis and treatment are as follows -
Screening - tests and screenings to understand current levels of alignment, posture, range of motion, balance and strength.
Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA): It examines seven fundamental movement patterns not to just find the source of the problem but to find the cause of the problem(s).
Functional Movement Screen (FMS): It recognizes limitations with patterns of movement that are key to the quality of movement in individuals who have no complaints of pain and/or any known injury.
