GURGAON, HARYANA, INDIA, September 15, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- With the advances in the techniques of doing knee and shoulder surgeries for ligament and sports injuries, the hospital stay for the patients has dramatically decreased, thus ensuring faster recovery and, at the same time, decreasing the financial burden on the patient by reducing the length of stay in the hospital.— Dr Yugal Karkhur, Senior Arthroscopy Surgeon
"We have been using the advanced minimally invasive technique called Arthroscopy for treating the knee and shoulder problems, which ensures minimum cuts, quicker recovery with extremely low complication rate", said Dr Yugal Karkhur, Senior Consultant, Orthopaedics, Joint Replacement & Arthroscopy surgery at Orthocure Clinics & Surgical Centres, Gurugram. Dr Yugal Karkhur also emphasised the positive shift technology has brought into patient recovery and rehabilitation.
"Most of my meniscus & ACL surgery patients are discharged on the same day while in some cases on the next day of surgery", says Dr Yugal Karkhur. He adds, "Professional cricketers, wrestlers, badminton players visit us with common knee and shoulder injuries where they cannot participate in competitive sports due to persistent pain and disability even after medications and physiotherapy. In the selected cases, we perform Arthroscopic surgeries for ligament reconstruction, labral repair, meniscus repair and patient return to strenuous activities in 50% less time than conventional treatment techniques, which is a huge moral booster for the active sportsperson."
Arthroscopy is a technique involving small cuts to access the joint viewed with a camera's help. All the instruments and implants are designed to be used through these cuts. This process results in minimum tissue and muscle damage and faster healing. The Arthroscopy technique has found its immense utilisation in ACL, PCL and meniscus knee joint injuries and in case of shoulder injuries like recurrent shoulder dislocation, rotator cuff tear, shoulder impingement etc.
ACL (Anterior Cruciate ligament) is one of the most important stabilisers of the knee joint and also one of the common ligaments to get injured in the knee. The injury can happen following a twisting or sideward force over the knee while playing or a fall and road traffic accident. The patient usually presents with a swollen and painful knee. MRI helps to confirm the diagnosis of an ACL tear. Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction occurs in patients with a complete tear or a non-functioning ligament. It involves harvesting tendon grafts from the behind the knee, ankle or front of the knee. The tendon graft is fashioned in size and dimensions to match that of the torn ligament and fixed with small buttons and screws to the bone.
"Patient is encouraged to walk from the very same day of surgery, and an extensive rehabilitation program is initiated as per our protocols and experiences from the past", says Senior Arthroscopy Surgeon Dr Yugal Karkhur.
With the advances and innovations in medical science, there has been a massive improvement in the quality of surgical care, functional independence and quicker recovery of the patients, thus cutting down physical, mental and financial agony.
