Joint Replacement

Hip and knee replacements are procedures in example, in an arthritic knee the damaged ends of the bones and cartilage are replaced with metal and plastic surfaces shaped to restore knee movements and functions. In an arthritic hip, the damaged ball (the upper end of the femur) is replaced by a metal ball attached to metal stem fitted into the femur, and a plastic socket is implanted into the pelvis, replacing the damaged socket.

Nowaday, minimal invasive surgery technique is making surgery, recovery, and rehabilitation faster and easier on patient's particular to hip replacement surgery. It uses the same high quality and clinically proven hip implants as traditional hip replacement surgery. This less-invasive approach benefits to the patient, including: less tissue trauma; a faster, less-painful rehabilitation; smaller scars; a shorter hospital stay; and less blood loss during surgery. These benefits result in a faster return to work and daily activities.

 

Spinal Surgery

Minimal invasive lumbar laminotomy / discectomy are the operations performed on the lower spine to relieve pressure on one or more nerve roots. The term is derived from the words lumbar (low back), and discectomy (remove a portion of the intervertebral disc).

When an intervertebral disc ruptures in the lumbar spine, it puts pressure on one or more nerve roots (often called nerve root compression). In this operation, the surgeon reaches the lumbar spine through a small incision in the low back. After the muscles of the spine are spread, the nerve root is exposed by removing part of the bony covering (lamina), which covers the verve root. This is called a laminotomy. If necessary a portion of the intervertebral disc is then removed taking the pressure off of the nerve root.

Successful recovery from a lumbar laminotomy / discectomy requires that you approach the operation and recovery period with confidence based on a thorough understanding of the indications, alternatives, and risks of your procedure.
