Arthroscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves inserting a small camera and specialized instruments into the joint through small incisions. It is commonly used to diagnose and treat various joint problems, such as torn ligaments, cartilage damage, and meniscal tears.

The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint and facilitate arm movement. Tears to the rotator cuff can occur due to repetitive overhead movements, age, or trauma. It can cause pain and make your daily activities difficult to perform. 

In addition, calcium deposits may form on tendons, resulting in severe shoulder pain. During rotator cuff surgery, our surgeons can remove damaged tissue and calcium deposits and reattach the torn tendon to the bone to restore shoulder function.

The labrum is a cartilage ring around the shoulder joint socket. A superior labrum anterior and posterior (SLAP) injury involves damage to the labrum. We can perform surgery to remove or reattach the torn part of the labrum.

The labrum may also get damaged with a shoulder dislocation. In such cases, we can surgically reattach and properly position the labrum to stabilize your shoulder.

Recurrent shoulder dislocations or instability may require surgical intervention to repair the soft tissues surrounding the shoulder joint. Surgical procedures are performed to restore stability and prevent future dislocations.

The meniscus is a C-shaped cartilage structure in the knee that can tear due to injury or aging. It is also common in athletes involved in sports that require pivoting or twisting movements. 

Depending on the type and location of the tear, surgery involves removing the damaged meniscus to prevent rough edges from irritating the joint or repairing the torn edges of the meniscus with stitches.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are common in athletes, especially those involved in sports requiring sudden stops and direction changes. A ruptured ACL can result in knee instability or arthritis. 

During ACL reconstruction surgery, the torn ligament is replaced with healthy tissue grafted from a different part of your body. The graft is usually taken from your hamstring tendon. 

It is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat various hip conditions. We perform this surgery to smooth or repair torn cartilage or trim excess bone.

Osteotomy of the knee is a surgery designed to realign the bones of the knee joint, typically to relieve pain and improve function. It is performed for certain types of knee conditions, such as osteoarthritis or ligament injuries. 

During this procedure, our surgeon removes or reshapes a small part of the bone around the knee to help decrease pressure on the affected area of your knee joint. 

Surgical intervention for knee cap (patellofemoral) disorders is typically considered when conservative, nonsurgical treatments are ineffective in alleviating symptoms and improving function. We decide on this procedure as a suitable surgical option based on the underlying cause of the patellofemoral disorder and your condition.

The quadriceps, patellar tendons, and thigh muscles help straighten the leg. Repair or reconstruction of the quadriceps and patellar tendons is necessary in cases of tendon tears or ruptures. It involves reattaching the tendon to the kneecap for partial or complete tears to restore strength and stability to the knee joint. 

Before surgery, you will undergo a thorough physical evaluation, including a review of your medical history, imaging tests, and blood tests to assess your overall health and determine the appropriate surgical approach.

You may receive pain medications or anesthesia depending on the type of surgery and your medical condition. Surgery may be performed using:

• Local anesthesia - Used to numb the surgical area
• Regional anesthesia - Administered to numb the surgical site and surrounding areas
• General anesthesia - Administered to make you unconscious

During the procedure, we closely monitor your vital organs and their function, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels. 

After the surgery is complete, you will be closely monitored for the effects of anesthesia. Our surgeon may recommend rehabilitation and physical therapy to help restore function, strength, and range of motion in the affected areas. Additionally, you may need follow-up appointments to examine your condition and treatment progress.
