Disc Replacement Surgery
Disc Replacement Surgery

Any persistent Lower Back Pain lasting for at least six months and unresponsive to Medication may necessitate Disc Replacement Surgery to restore functionality. During Disc Replacement Surgery, the Painful Disc is replaced with a Prosthetic Implant, aiming to alleviate discomfort and improve mobility. However, not everyone is a candidate for this procedure. Certain health conditions, such as Osteoporosis, Spinal Tumor, Pregnancy, Vertebral Body Fracture, and Allergies to Implant materials, may preclude individuals from undergoing Disc Replacement Surgery.

Our team at Sharda Care - Healthcity , is dedicated to providing comprehensive care and personalized treatment options tailored to each patient's unique needs and circumstances. We prioritize patient safety and well-being throughout the treatment process, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients.

At Sharda Care - Healthcity, we offer advanced Surgical options for Disc Replacement to address Spine-related issues:

  • Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF): ACDF is a well-established Surgical procedure for Cervical Spine issues. Regarded as the gold standard in Spine Surgery, it boasts a long history of efficacy and positive outcomes. This surgery is considered safe, effective, and relatively straightforward, with favourable recovery potential. The procedure involves two stages: first, the damaged Cervical Disc is completely removed (discectomy), followed by the placement of a Bone Graft to facilitate fusion with the adjacent Vertebrae.
  • Cervical Disc Replacement: Also known as total Disc Arthroplasty or Artificial Disc Replacement, this procedure involves replacing a damaged Cervical Disc with a Metallic or Polymeric Prosthetic. Surgeons make an incision in the side of the neck to access the affected area and carefully remove the damaged Disc along with any Tissue or Bone Spurs. The prosthetic disc is then precisely inserted, and the incision is closed. Patients typically recover within three to four weeks and can resume work and light activities. More Strenuous activities may need to be postponed for six to eight weeks.
  • Artificial Disc Replacement in the Lumbar Spine: In this procedure, Worn or Damaged Disc material between the Vertebrae in the Lumbar Spine is replaced with a Synthetic Disc. The goal is to alleviate Back Pain while preserving motion, a benefit that sets it apart from procedures like Spinal Fusion.

At Sharda Care - Healthcity, we strive to provide cutting-edge Surgical interventions for Disc Replacement, tailored to each patient's unique needs, ensuring optimal outcomes and improved quality of life.

Total Hip Replacement Surgery
Total Hip Replacement Surgery

At Sharda Care - Healthcity, we specialize in Total Hip Replacement Surgery, designed to alleviate Hip Pain and enhance functionality by resurfacing the Bones within the Hip Joint. Our skilled Surgeons Replace the damaged femoral head with a Prosthetic ball-shaped component, which seamlessly integrates with a cup-shaped prosthesis to form the new socket of the Pelvis.

During the procedure, our Surgeons meticulously remove the affected sections of the Hip Joint and Replace them with durable components typically made of Metal, Ceramic, and High-Grade Plastic. This Artificial Joint, or Prosthesis, effectively reduces Pain and improves overall Hip function, allowing patients to regain mobility and enjoy a better quality of life.

Reasons for Hip Replacement Surgery

  • Osteoarthritis: Also known as wear-and-tear Arthritis, Osteoarthritis damages the smooth cartilage covering the ends of Bones, leading to Joint Pain and Stiffness.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune condition, Rheumatoid Arthritis causes inflammation that can damage cartilage and underlying Bone, resulting in Joint deformity and dysfunction.
  • Osteonecrosis: Insufficient Blood supply to the Hip Joint's Ball Portion, often due to dislocation or fracture, can lead to Bone collapse and deformity.

Total Knee Replacement Surgery
Total Knee Replacement Surgery

At Sharda Care - Healthcity, we offer Total Knee Replacement Surgery as a solution for individuals with injured or deteriorating Knee Joints. This Surgical procedure aims to alleviate Pain and improve Knee Function by replacing damaged Bone and Cartilage with Metal and Plastic components.

Before recommending Knee Replacement Surgery, our experienced Surgeons thoroughly assess your Knee's range of Motion, Stability, and Strength. Diagnostic tools such as X-rays are utilized to evaluate the extent of damage and determine the most suitable course of action. The selection of Artificial Joints and Surgical Techniques is personalized to each patient's unique characteristics, including Age, Weight, Activity Level, Knee Size and Shape, and Overall Health. Our team ensures that every aspect of the procedure is tailored to optimize outcomes and enhance patient satisfaction.

At Sharda Care - Healthcity, we offer various types of Total Knee Replacement Surgeries to address Knee-Related issues:

  • Conventional Technique: The conventional method of Knee Replacement, which has been practised for decades, involves making an 8 to 12 - Inch incision on the Knee using standard tools and equipment. While this approach has benefited many individuals, advancements in the field have led to the development of more convenient and effective procedures. These modern techniques build upon the traditional method, offering added benefits and improved outcomes.
  • Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement: Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement Surgery represents a significant advancement in Orthopaedic Care, providing precise and accurate results for individuals suffering from Knee problems. Using Robotic Technology, Surgeons can operate with minimal errors, shaping the surrounding bone with Handheld Robotics before inserting the Knee Implant. By utilizing a 3D representation of the Knee Profile, Surgeons can determine the optimal size and position of the implant, leading to more accurate and reliable outcomes. This approach can be applied to both Partial and Total Knee Replacement Surgeries.

Partial Knee Replacement: Also known as Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty or Unicondylar Knee Arthroplasty, Partial Knee Replacement targets only the diseased portion of the Knee, removing and replacing damaged Cartilage and Bone. This procedure differs from Total Knee Replacement, where the entire Joint's Bone and Cartilage are Replaced.

At Sharda Care - Healthcity, we are committed to providing cutting-edge Knee Replacement Surgeries tailored to each patient's needs, ensuring optimal outcomes and improved quality of life.

Spondylitis
Spondylitis

Spondylitis encompasses a group of chronic arthritis-related conditions that affect the Joints of the Spine and the Sacroiliac region. At Sharda Care - Healthcity , we provide comprehensive treatment for all types of Spondylitis, addressing inflammation in the Joints, Tendons, and Ligaments. Tendons, which connect Muscles to Bones, and Ligaments, which connect Bones to other Bones, are both affected by this condition. Inflammation in these areas can lead to the fusion of Bones and excessive Bone growth in the Spine. In severe cases, Spondylitis can result in abnormal curvature of the Spine.

We prioritize non-surgical interventions, striving to enhance patients' posture and mobility through tailored treatments and medication. Surgery is only considered when all other options have been exhausted. We meticulously evaluate each patient to ensure they are suitable candidates for surgical intervention, considering factors such as Medical History, Spinal Health, and overall well-being. At Sharda Care - Healthcity , we provide comprehensive care from consultation to discharge, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients.
