Hip & Knee

Total Knee Replacement (TKR) is a highly effective surgical procedure designed to alleviate pain and restore function in patients with severely damaged knee joints due to arthritis or injury. In this procedure, the damaged surfaces of the knee are replaced with artificial components, resulting in improved mobility and significant pain relief.

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols are an integral part of modern TKR procedures, ensuring that patients experience a faster, smoother recovery.

Hip fractures are a common and serious concern for ageing women, particularly those with osteoporosis, as well as women who have experienced the physical stresses of pregnancy and childbirth. These fractures can significantly impact mobility and quality of life.

Hip Fracture Repair involves surgical interventions aimed at stabilising the fracture and restoring function to the hip joint.

Carpal Tunnel Release Treatment for Pregnant Women

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is common among pregnant women due to fluid retention and hormonal changes, leading to symptoms like numbness, tingling, and pain in the hand and fingers.

Carpal Tunnel Release is a surgical procedure to relieve these symptoms by reducing pressure on the median nerve. This treatment is particularly beneficial for pregnant women with severe or persistent symptoms.

Spine

Women may experience various spine-related conditions due to factors such as osteoporosis, hormonal changes, and physical stresses from pregnancy and childbirth. Our key orthopaedic spine services include:

Spinal Fusion

Joining vertebrae to treat conditions like scoliosis, spondylolisthesis, and degenerative disc disease.

Laminectomy

Removing part of a vertebra to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, often for spinal stenosis.

Vertebroplasty/Kyphoplasty

Minimally invasive procedures to stabilise compression fractures caused by osteoporosis. Kyphoplasty involves inflating a balloon before cement injection.

Discectomy and Micro-discectomy

Removing herniated disc material to relieve nerve pressure, with micro-discectomy using smaller incisions for faster recovery.

Spinal Disc Replacement

Replacing a damaged or herniated (slipped) spinal disc with an artificial one to maintain motion, as an alternative to fusion.

Scoliosis Surgery

Correcting abnormal spinal curvature using spinal fusion and instrumentation like rods and screws.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS)

Techniques using smaller incisions to treat various spinal conditions, resulting in less tissue damage and quicker recovery.

Facet Joint Injections and Medial Branch Blocks

Injections to diagnose and relieve pain from facet joint arthritis or inflammation.
