Minimal Invasive Spine/Disc Surgeries

Our Minimal Invasive Spine/Disc Surgeries utilize advanced techniques to treat spinal disorders and conditions. These procedures, such as endoscopic discectomy and lumbar decompression, involve making smaller incisions, resulting in minimal tissue disruption, reduced postoperative pain, and faster recovery. Our expert surgeons employ state-of-the-art technology to precisely target the affected area, ensuring optimal outcomes. We understand the importance of your recovery, and our dedicated team will provide comprehensive postoperative care and guidance throughout the healing process.

Types of procedures offered under Minimal Invasive Spine/Disc Surgeries
  • Endoscopic Discectomy: This procedure involves the use of an endoscope to remove a herniated or damaged disc in the spine, relieving pressure on the nerves and reducing pain.
  • Lumbar Decompression: Also known as minimally invasive decompressive laminectomy, this procedure aims to relieve spinal stenosis by removing a portion of the lamina to create more space for the nerves.
Recovery Process

After Minimal Invasive Spine/Disc Surgeries, the recovery process may vary depending on the specific procedure and individual factors. Generally, patients can expect a shorter hospital stay, reduced postoperative pain, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgeries. You may experience some discomfort or soreness at the incision site, which can be managed with pain medications prescribed by your surgeon. Physical therapy and rehabilitation exercises will play a crucial role in your recovery, helping to restore strength, flexibility, and range of motion. It's important to follow your surgeon's postoperative instructions and attend scheduled follow-up appointments for monitoring and guidance throughout the recovery period.

Potential Risks

While Minimal Invasive Spine/Disc Surgeries offer several benefits, there are potential risks involved. These may include infection, bleeding, nerve injury, blood clots, or adverse reactions to anesthesia. Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you prior to the procedure and take necessary precautions to minimize them. It's important to communicate any concerns or unusual symptoms to your healthcare team during the recovery process.

Hip & Knee Replacement

Chord Road Hospital specializes in Hip & Knee Replacement procedures, offering effective solutions to improve joint function and alleviate pain caused by conditions like arthritis or joint degeneration.

  • Partial Hip Replacement: In this procedure, only the damaged part of the hip joint is replaced with an artificial implant, preserving the healthy portions of the joint.
Recovery Process

The recovery process following Hip & Knee Replacement procedures typically involves a hospital stay followed by a comprehensive rehabilitation program. You will be provided with pain management strategies to help control any discomfort during the initial postoperative period. Physical therapy will play a crucial role in your recovery, focusing on strengthening the muscles around the joint, improving mobility, and facilitating a gradual return to normal activities. Your surgeon will provide specific guidelines for weight-bearing, movement restrictions, and follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.

Potential Risks

While Hip & Knee Replacement procedures are generally safe and effective, there are potential risks associated with any surgery. These may include infection, blood clots, implant loosening, joint stiffness, nerve or blood vessel injury, or allergic reactions to anesthesia or implants. Your surgeon will explain these risks to you and take appropriate measures to minimize them. It's important to closely follow your surgeon's instructions, attend follow-up appointments, and promptly report any concerns or complications during the recovery period.

Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeries

Our Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeries are designed to address a range of shoulder conditions, including rotator cuff tears, labral injuries, and instability. Using minimally invasive techniques, such as arthroscopy, our surgeons can visualize and repair the affected structures with precision. This approach minimizes trauma to the surrounding tissues, resulting in quicker recovery times and improved outcomes. Our multidisciplinary team will support you throughout the rehabilitation process, offering specialized exercises and therapies to restore shoulder function and strength.

Types of procedures offered under Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeries
  • Rotator Cuff Repair: Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is performed to repair a torn rotator cuff tendon in the shoulder using small incisions and specialized instruments.
  • Labral Repair: This procedure involves the repair of a torn labrum in the shoulder joint using arthroscopic techniques, aiming to restore stability and function.
Recovery Process

Following Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeries, the recovery process often involves a period of immobilization followed by a gradual rehabilitation program. You may need to wear a sling or immobilizer for a specific period to protect the surgical site and promote healing. Physical therapy will be an essential component of your recovery, focusing on restoring shoulder range of motion, strength, and stability. Your surgeon will provide specific guidelines regarding activity restrictions, exercises, and the timeline for resuming daily activities and sports.

Potential Risks

While Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgeries are generally safe, there are potential risks involved. These may include infection, bleeding, stiffness, nerve injury, shoulder instability, or failure to completely resolve the underlying shoulder condition. Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you prior to the procedure and take appropriate measures to minimize them. It's important to follow your surgeon's postoperative instructions, attend physical therapy sessions, and promptly report any concerns or complications during the recovery period.

Trauma/Fracture Management

Chord Road Hospital's Trauma/Fracture Management services are dedicated to the treatment of acute injuries and fractures. Our expert orthopedic surgeons are experienced in managing complex fractures using both non-surgical and surgical approaches. Procedures such as closed reduction and open reduction internal fixation are performed with utmost precision to promote proper healing and restore function. We understand the urgency of trauma cases and have a specialized team available round-the-clock to provide immediate care and support.

Types of procedures offered under Trauma/Fracture Management
  • Closed Reduction: This non-surgical technique involves realigning fractured bones without making an incision, usually through manual manipulation or traction.
  • Open Reduction Internal Fixation: In this surgical procedure, fractured bones are repositioned and stabilized using implants such as plates, screws, or rods.
Recovery Process

The recovery process following Trauma/Fracture Management procedures depends on the nature and severity of the injury. After surgery, you may need to immobilize the affected area using a cast, splint, or brace. Physical therapy and rehabilitation will be crucial in restoring strength, flexibility, and function to the injured area. Your healthcare team will guide you through exercises and activities to promote healing, regain mobility, and prevent complications. The duration of the recovery process can vary, and your progress will be closely monitored through follow-up appointments.

Potential Risks

Trauma/Fracture Management procedures carry potential risks, including infection, bleeding, nerve or blood vessel injury, nonunion (failure of the bones to heal properly), malunion (bones healing in a misaligned position), or post-traumatic arthritis. Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you prior to the procedure and take necessary precautions to minimize them.
