Orthopedics

Orthopedic Surgery focuses on the diagnosis, correction, prevention, and treatment of skeletal deformities. These may arise congenitally, with age, through trauma, or due to disease. Corrective orthopedic surgeries are essential to restore function, mobility, and help patients perform their daily activities with ease.

Orthopedic surgery is a broad field, covering several subspecialties and procedures. The following are some of the most common orthopedic surgeries performed by specialists around the world:

• Joint Replacements: Performed for patients with damaged joints (hip, knee, or elbow) to restore mobility and relieve pain.
• Osteotomy: A procedure to correct bone deformities by cutting, trimming, and repositioning bones to align properly.
• Fusion / Internal Fixation Surgeries: Involves bone grafts and the use of metal supports such as titanium plates or rods to stabilize broken bones for proper healing.
• Soft Tissue Repair: Reconstructive surgery of soft tissues such as tendons and ligaments that are damaged due to injury or overuse.

These procedures are often highly expensive in Western countries like the United States, discouraging many patients from getting timely treatment. In contrast, India offers world-class orthopedic care at a fraction of the cost — with internationally accredited hospitals, modern surgical techniques, and experienced specialists.
