Orthopedic Care

The worn cartilage and bone at the end of the femur and top of the tibia are resurfaced with metal and polyethylene implant components that recreate a smooth, pain-free joint.

Performed for advanced osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic joint damage where pain, stiffness and reduced mobility no longer respond to medication, injections or physiotherapy.

Under spinal or general anaesthesia, the surgeon removes the damaged joint surfaces, shapes the bone ends, and fits metal femoral and tibial components with a plastic spacer in between; robotic or navigation-assisted techniques are increasingly used for precise alignment. Surgery generally takes 1-2 hours.

The vast majority of patients report dramatic pain relief and significantly improved range of motion and walking ability, with modern implants lasting 15-20 years or more.

The damaged femoral head and hip socket (acetabulum) are removed and replaced with an artificial ball-and-socket implant made of metal, ceramic or high-grade polyethylene.

Recommended for severe hip osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, hip fracture or dysplasia causing chronic pain and limited mobility that has not improved with conservative treatment.

Under spinal or general anaesthesia, the surgeon accesses the hip joint (via posterior, anterior or lateral approach), removes the damaged bone surfaces, and implants a prosthetic stem into the femur along with a socket liner in the pelvis; minimally invasive and anterior approaches can reduce muscle disruption. The operation typically takes 1-2 hours.

Most patients experience near-complete pain relief and restored walking ability within weeks, with modern hip implants commonly lasting 15-25 years.

A torn anterior cruciate ligament in the knee is reconstructed using a graft, commonly taken from the patient's own hamstring, patellar tendon, or a donor tissue, to restore knee stability.

Recommended for athletes and active individuals with a complete ACL tear causing knee instability, giving-way episodes, or associated meniscal damage that limits sports or daily activity.

Performed arthroscopically through small key-hole incisions under general or spinal anaesthesia; the torn ligament remnants are removed, tunnels are drilled in the femur and tibia, and the graft is threaded through and fixed in place with screws or anchors, usually taking 1-1.5 hours.

Most patients regain a stable, functional knee and can return to pivoting sports, though full ligament strength and confidence typically take 9-12 months to develop.

The damaged head of the humerus and/or shoulder socket is replaced with prosthetic components; in reverse shoulder replacement, the ball-and-socket positions are switched to compensate for rotator cuff deficiency.

Indicated for severe shoulder osteoarthritis, rotator cuff tear arthropathy, avascular necrosis or complex fractures causing persistent pain and restricted arm movement.

Under general or regional anaesthesia, the surgeon removes the damaged joint surfaces and implants a prosthetic humeral stem with a matching socket component (standard or reverse configuration depending on rotator cuff condition), typically completed in 1.5-2.5 hours.

Most patients achieve substantial pain relief and meaningfully improved shoulder function, with reverse replacements particularly effective for restoring overhead motion in cuff-deficient shoulders.
