Minimally Invasive Hip and Knee Surgery
Minimally invasive hip and knee replacement surgery (MIS) continues to receive coverage in both the popular press and scientific literature. The cited benefits include a smaller scar, less soft tissue trauma, faster recovery, reduced hospital stay, decreased blood loss and reduced post-operative pain.
There is no single way to perform a minimally invasive hip replacement. Because of the limited research available, all minimally invasive techniques are grouped in this section. Typically, minimally invasive hip replacement surgery requires a single 3- to 6-inch incision or two smaller incisions.

Key Hole Surgery
Arthroscopic surgery (keyhole surgery of the knee) involves a minimally invasive technique usually done as day case surgery and is conducive to a remarkably quick recovery.
Loose bodies, fragments, and pieces of bone and cartilage floating in the knee can be removed and washed out. Rough surfaces causing Osteoarthritis and inflammation can be made smoother. As the incision in the knee is so small, scarring is minimal and trauma is reduced, giving a consequent reduction in pain and postoperative complication.
Arthroscopic cartilage and meniscus repair remove roughness, friction, and “wear and tear” in the cartilage. For more info contact Dr Amit Singh, one of the Best Orthopaedic Doctor in Kalina.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
In general, the goal of minimally invasive spine (MIS) surgery is to stabilize the vertebral bones and spinal joints and/or relieve pressure being applied to the spinal nerves — often a result of conditions such as spinal instability, bone spurs, herniated discs, scoliosis or spinal tumors.
As opposed to open spine surgery, minimally invasive surgical approaches can be faster, safer and require less recovery time.
Knee Replacement
Knee replacement surgery also known as knee arthroplasty can help relieve pain and restore function in severely diseased knee joints. The procedure involves cutting away damaged bone and cartilage from your thighbone, shinbone and kneecap and replacing it with an artificial joint (prosthesis) made of metal alloys, high-grade plastics and polymers.
In determining whether a knee replacement is right for you, an orthopedic surgeon assesses your knee's range of motion, stability and strength. X-rays help determine the extent of damage. For more info contact Dr Amit Singh, one of the Best Orthopaedic Doctor in Kalina.
Fracture Fixation
A broken bone must be carefully stabilized and supported until it is strong enough to handle the body's weight and movement. Until the last century, physicians relied on casts and splints to support and stabilize the bone from outside the body. The advent of sterile surgical procedures reduced the risk of infection, allowing doctors to internally set and stabilize fractured bones.
During a surgical procedure to set a fracture, the bone fragments are first repositioned (reduced) into their normal alignment. They are held together with special implants, such as plates, screws, nails and wires.
Internal fixation allows shorter hospital stays, enables patients to return to function earlier, and reduces the incidence of nonunion (improper healing) and malunion (healing in improper position) of broken bones.
The implants used for internal fixation are made from stainless steel and titanium, which are durable and strong. If a joint is to be replaced, rather than fixed, these implants can also be made of cobalt and chrome. Implants are compatible with the body and rarely cause an allergic reaction.

Partial Knee Replacement
Partial knee replacement is where the bone surfaces of only one compartment of the knee joint are removed and replaced with implants, as compared to that of multiple compartments in the case of a total knee replacement. It is a common treatment for unicompartmental arthritis.
“Patients with unicompartmental knee arthritis have cartilage degeneration in only one section or compartment of the knee. In cases where nonsurgical techniques do not provide symptom relief, surgeons can remove damaged cartilage and bone in the diseased area only, while preserving the ligaments that help support the knee joint”. For more info contact Dr Amit Singh, one of the Best Orthopaedic Doctor in Kalina.
Shoulder & knee Arthroscopy
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a camera to look within a joint, rather than opening it completely. Orthopedic surgeons use arthroscopy to diagnose, treat, and repair numerous conditions and diseases that may cause joint pain or mobility problems. Are you suffering from knee, shoulder, or ankle pain or stiffness? Arthroscopic surgery may be an option for you.
Arthroscopic surgery first became known to the public through its use in treating sports injuries sustained by high-profile athletes — for example, meniscus tears in basketball players, severe cases of runner's knee in marathoners, or rotator cuff tears in football players or baseball pitchers.
