General Procedures

The various state of the art procedures being conducted to alleviate a variety of disorders:

• Revision total joint replacement (for patients suffering from failed implants due to loosening or fracture)
• Osteotomies (joint preserving operations of the hip and knee)
• Core decompression and bone grafting procedures
• Hip impingement procedures
• Arthrodesis (for end-stage degenerative disease in young adults)

Fracture and Trauma Care Centre Procedures:

• Total joint replacements (hip replacement surgery and knee replacement surgery ) - Joint Preservation and Replacement - Arthroscopy and Arthroplasty)
• Revision total joint replacement (for patients suffering from failed implants due to loosening or fracture)
• Mini-incision unicondylar knee arthroplasty (MIS UKA)
• Bone Sparing Arthroplasty

• Arthroscopic Ligamentary and Meniscal repairs

Bone and soft tissue cancers Procedures:

The collaboration of knowledge and experience of our Orthopedic Surgeons that specilise in bone and soft tissue cancers, Reconstructive Surgeons, Radiologist, and Radiation Oncologists ensures you get the complete care. We will help you in not only getting the diagnosis but also providing personalized treatment protocols based on the latest research and limb sparing surgery options. Not all treatments require surgery and we offer patients state-of the-art non-surgical techniques including:

• chemotherapy
• radiation therapy
• radio-frequency ablation (heat cautery)
• cryosurgery (freezing)

We have a dedicated Orthopedic Oncologist involved full time with treating bone and soft tissue tumors. Our surgeon works closely with some of India’s best engineering talent from IIT Mumbai and NFTDC Hyderabad (Non Ferrous Technology Development Corporation) towards developing world class implants and instruments. We offer the whole gamut of reconstructive options varying from prosthetic and biological options. Wherever possible, joint sparing surgery is done and not just limb sparing.

For children, we have the country’s largest experience in the use of expandable prostheses, including the non-invasive expandable which can be lengthened without any surgical procedure. Other sophisticated surgeries like extracorporeal radiation and re-implantation as well as pelvic resections and reconstructions are also now available. All our efforts are directed to ensure minimum adverse impact in your quality of life and productivity

Day Care Surgeries and procedures:

Precision Orthopaedic Care at P. D. Hinduja Hospital

At P. D. Hinduja Hospital & Medical Research Centre, we are committed to bringing the latest global innovations in orthopaedic surgery to our patients.
Our orthopaedic surgeons now use the advanced CORI Surgical System, to perform robotic-assisted knee / hip replacement surgery with exceptional accuracy and control.
This technology allows surgeons to plan and perform joint replacement procedures with greater precision, personalized to each patient’s anatomy.

What is this this new Robotic System 

The CORI Surgical System is a handheld robotic technology designed to assist surgeons during joint replacement procedures.
Personalized Surgical Planning: The intelligent system maps your knee or hip during surgery, allowing the surgeon to create a custom plan tailored to your unique anatomy.
Exceptional Precision: Robotic assistance helps surgeons remove damaged bone with millimetre-level accuracy, ensuring optimal implant placement.
Protection of Healthy Tissue: The system enables controlled bone preparation, helping protect surrounding ligaments and healthy bone.
Improved Joint Balance: Real-time data allows surgeons to fine-tune the joint alignment and movement, helping achieve a more natural feel after surgery.

What is the benefit to patients of this new Robotic System?

Patients undergoing robotic-assisted joint replacement may experience:
✔ Greater surgical precision
✔ Improved implant positioning
✔ Better joint balance and stability
✔ Smaller and more controlled bone removal

•    Image-free technology, no CT required

✔ Potentially quicker rehabilitation
✔ Enhanced long-term implant performance

Every patient is different, and your orthopaedic surgeon will guide you on the most suitable treatment approach.
