• Arthroscopy: Arthroscopy is a type of surgical procedure that allows orthopedic surgeons to view, diagnose, and treat problems within the joints. The word “arthroscopy” comes from the Greek words “arthro,” meaning joint, and “skopein,” meaning to look. Arthroscopic procedures are typically performed using a small camera, called an arthroscope, which is inserted into the joint through a small incision. This camera gives the surgeon a clear view of the inside of the joint, allowing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
• ORIF: Open Reduction and Internal Fixation is a type of surgery used to fix a bone that has been broken in more than one place. It is also used to treat fractures that are severe, such as those that involve the bones of the hip, pelvis, or upper arm. The goal of ORIF surgery is to restore the bone to its original position and alignment so that it can heal properly.
• Implant Removal: From hip replacements to knee replacements, implants are becoming increasingly common. However, as with any surgery, there is always a risk that something can go wrong. In some cases, patients may experience complications that require the removal of their implant.
