Different Types of Orthopedic Surgery

The musculoskeletal system comprises of ligaments, muscles, joints, and tendons. An operation performed on the musculoskeletal system is known as orthopaedic surgery. Top orthopaedic hospitals in India, offers three key types of orthopaedic surgery:

· Traditional surgery
· Open surgery
· Arthroscopic surgery

The most common types of orthopaedic surgeries performed by top orthopaedic hospitals in India, today are:

1. Knee Joint Replacement

The operation is performed to mitigate pain, increase mobility and overcome feebleness. Intensifying arthritis, trauma, and other joint-related diseases severely damage the knees. In such cases, a knee joint replacement surgery is recommended.

2. Shoulder Replacement

During a shoulder replacement surgery, the surgeon replaces humerus commonly known as upper arm bone with a metal ball or plastic prosthesis. The shoulder replacement not only gives relief from shoulder pain but also increases the range of shoulder motion.

3. Ankle Repair

During surgery, bones are repositioned and held together with the help of the implants. After the operation, the patient must wear the boot for a couple of months, per the doctor's suggestion. To regain the full range of motion, the patient must do a couple of exercises under the guidance of a trained physiotherapist.

4. Spinal Surgery

When back pain begins influencing the day-to-day life of an individual, then spinal surgery is one of the key alternatives. During spinal surgery, surgeons join vertebrae (spinal bones) together. After the surgery, the patients experience significant changes in the body, such as better physical fitness, increased activity, and increased productivity.

5. Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

ACL plays a substantial role in the human body; it acts as a stabilizing ligament in the knee. With anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery, the ruptured ligament is reconstructed by the orthopaedic surgeons. The ligament is generally ruptured because of excessive/abrupt twisting or during sports. Surgeons use the tissue of the patient’s body to make a new ACL. Screws and other binding devices are used to connect the new ligament.

From the top drawer, she retrieves a deli강북출장샵cate handkerchief with a single violet embroidered in its center. With materials in the city now so scarce, she has had to use the dark blue thread from her skirt’s hem to stitch the tiny flower on a swatch of white cotton cut from her petticoat.
