Orthopaedic Treatment

The various surgical procedures in Pelvic and Acetabular Surgeries are as follows:

• Pelvic Fracture Repair: This surgical intervention involves the use of plates, screws, or rods to realign and stabilize fractured bones within the pelvis.
• Acetabular Fracture Repair: This procedure focuses on mending fractures of the hip joint’s socket (acetabulum) using open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) techniques.
• Pelvic Osteotomy: This surgical method is performed to reshape the pelvic bones, enhancing hip joint stability, correcting abnormalities, and treating conditions like hip dysplasia.
• Total Hip Replacement Surgery: In cases of severe hip joint injury, this procedure entails removing the damaged joint and replacing it with an artificial hip joint

• Severe pelvic fractures resulting from trauma, accidents, or falls
• Fractures affecting the acetabulum (hip socket)
• Pelvic and hip joint deformities
• Advanced hip osteoarthritis and degenerative joint conditions
• Hip dysplasia
• Infections or tumours in the pelvis or hipjoint

• Relief from Chronic Pain: Surgery for Fractures, Deformities, and Joint Conditions
• Enhanced Mobility and Function: These procedures aim to restore joint alignment and stability, boosting mobility and overall function.
• Better quality of Life: Addressing underlying issues enables patients to regain independence and engage in activities with improved comfort and mobility

Before the Surgery:

• Pre-Operative Evaluation: Your surgeon will conduct a comprehensive assessment, which may include imaging tests, blood work, and a review of your medical history.
• Medication Changes: To ensure your safety, your doctor may request a temporarysuspension of certain medications, such as blood thinners, before the surgery.
• Lifestyle Changes: We encourage you to embrace a healthier lifestyle by quitting smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and adopting a balanced diet prior to the procedure.

On the Day of Surgery:

• Preparing for Anaesthesia: Adequate preparation is crucial. You’ll receive guidance on fasting, showering, and dressing. An experienced anaesthesiologist will explain the anaesthesia procedure and address any questions you may have.
• Surgical Technique: The surgical approach varies based on your specific needs. Our skilled surgeon will make precise incisions, realign fractures, repair damaged tissues, or replace joints as required.
• Duration and Recovery: Surgery duration ranges from a few hours to several days, depending on complexity. After the surgery, you will be carefully observed in the recovery room before transitioning to a hospital room.

Recuperation in the Hospital and at home:

• Hospitalization Duration Varies: Depending on the procedure and your individual circumstances, your hospital stay may span a few days to a few weeks. During this time, you’ll receive pain management, physical therapy, and assistance with daily activities.
• Home Recovery: Upon returning home, adhering to your surgeon’s guidelines is crucial. These may include wound care, medication management, and gentle physical therapy exercises. Gradual weight-bearing and mobility will be introduced  under supervision.

Follow-up Care: To ensure your complete recovery and progress, regular follow-up appointments are essential. Our dedicated team will:

• Monitor wound healing and, if necessary, remove sutures or staples.
• Assess joint function and range of motion, ensuring your recovery is on track.• Adjust medications and provide effective pain management strategies.
• Recommend personalized physical therapy or rehabilitation programs to support your healing journey.
