Joint Replacement

Total knee replacements are one of the most successful procedures in Orthopedics.

Knee Joint

The knee is the largest joint in the body and having healthy knees is required to perform most everyday activities. The knee is made up of the lower end of the thighbone (femur), the upper end of the shinbone (tibia), and the kneecap (patella). The ends of these three bones where they touch are covered with articular cartilage, a smooth substance that protects the bones and enables them to move easily.

Details of Surgery

Knee replacement (also called knee arthroplasty) might be more accurately termed a knee "resurfacing" because only the surface of the bones are actually replaced. There are four basic steps to a knee replacement procedure.

Arthroscopy Surgery

Arthroscopy is performed by making small incision in patient’s skin and inserting a pencil sized telescope into the joint space with attached camera and lighting system.

Arthroscopic surgery is usually performed to repair torn ligament or cartilage, for removal of loose body and to promote healing of joint surfaces.

Spine Surgery

The spine is one of the most complicated and significant systems in the human body. Areas of the spine consist of the lumbar region of the lower back, the thoracic region of the middle back, and the cervical region of the neck. The back and neck are the greatest sources of pain and discomfort in the body. In fact, most people will experience back pain in the lumbar region at some point in their life Our spine surgeons strive to offer the highest level of care for the back and neck that helps restore function, reduce discomfort, and prevent further injury. Education, physical therapy, aquatic therapy, medication, exercise, ultrasound, and spinal injections are often utilized as nonsurgical options in relieving spine pain

Trauma

The Trauma Service is a multidisciplinary team of surgeons, nurse practitioners, nurses, registrars, social workers, child life specialists, injury prevention educators, therapists, researchers, and support staff who work together to care for children who have suffered a serious physical injury. The Trauma Service manages the treatment of trauma patients from the moment they are admitted to the hospital, through rehabilitation and entry back into their homes and communities. In this way, the Trauma Service ensures patients receive comprehensive care throughout their recovery.
