Are you suffering from shoulder pain??? We can help you to get out of it....

Our shoulder is made up of upper arm bone (humerus), shoulder blade (scapula) and collarbone(clavicle).  Arthroscopy is a treatment procedure used to inspect, diagnose and repair problems inside a joint.  
Shoulder Arthroscopy that performed with RathiMed Specialty Hospital is the best shoulder arthroscopy treatment in Chennai. The hospital is very particular in providing quality care to the patients.  



When Shoulder Arthroscopy needed?

Arthroscopy will be suggested if the painful condition of the shoulder does not respond to non-surgical treatments.  The reason behind most of the shoulder problems is injury, overuse and age-related problems.  Shoulder arthroscopy may relieve painful conditions that damage the rotator cuff tendons, labrum, articular cartilage and other soft tissues surrounding the joint.  
Common Arthroscopic Procedures
  • Bone spur removal
  • Rotator cuff repair
  • Repair of ligaments
  • Removal or repair of labrum
  • Removal of inflamed tissue or loose cartilage

Diagnosis of Shoulder Problems

Performing physical examination and viewing medical images and asking to perform certain simple movements to assess muscle strength, joint motion and stability are the most common methods to evaluate the shoulders.  

How is Arthroscopy Performed?


After giving general anesthesia, the surgeon inserts the arthroscope into the shoulder through a small incision.  The arthroscope is connected to a     video monitor in the operating room.  Inspects for all tissues of the shoulder joint and area above the joint and repair the damaged tissues.  

Recovery after Arthroscopy


Several weeks are needed to heal from surgery and restricted arm movements for some time.  An arm sling will be provided at that time.  The physical therapist will help to move the arm at first and suitable exercises will be suggested.  After about six months the functional movement and strength will be regained.  

Prevention

Avoiding repetitive overhead movements may help to prevent certain conditions from worsening.  It is better to follow the doctor’s suggestion for weightlifting or motion restriction.
RathiMed Specialty Hospital is known for its orthopedic services.  Dr. Ragunathan is the founder and the chief surgeon of the hospital.  He is famous for his expertise as a surgeon.  The hospital is aided by latest infrastructure and facilities.

How to Treat your cartilage damage effectively?

Cartilage is a connective, soft tissue found in joints between the bones comprising knee, elbow and ankles. If the joints are not damaged severely, self care can be incorporated to nullify the damage. Common remedies like using a support, giving proper rest, compressing the affected area can be considered.
For severe cartilage damage, surgery is recommended. Surgery is usually performed using Arthroscopy – a type of keyhole surgery where special instruments are inserted into the joint through small cuts (incisions), although sometimes larger incisions need to be made.

http://www.rathimedhospital.com/contact-us.html




  • Lavage and Debridement – Procedure used to remove unnecessary tissues.
  • Marrow Stimulation (microfracture) – Damaged cartilage are drilled from which marrow is discharged that helps in cartilage reconstruction.
  • Mosaicplasty – Small plugs of healthy cartilage are removed and attached to the affected cartilage.
  • Osteotomy – Shine or thigh bone is cut short to alter the alignment.
  • Joint Replacement – If the damage is particularly severe, the whole knee is replaced using an artificial knee.
  • Allograft Osteochondral Transplantation (AOT) –Similar to mosaicplasty, but the replacement cartilage is obtained from a recently deceased donor, and it is used to repair larger damaged areas
  • Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (ACI) – A sample of cartilage is taken and new cells are developed in the laboratory, which is then used to replace the damaged cartilage.
  • Artificial Scaffolds – A special patch or gel is used to repair the damaged cartilage; it may be used in combination with marrow stimulation or on its own.
Consult the surgeon for the suitable surgery procedure, the possible risks and time involved in recovery. In usual cases, for few months strenuous activities will not be advised.

Physiotherapy 

Physiotherapy is helpful for difficulty in moving the joint. Post surgery, it is recommended to have a physiotherapy for fast recovery. Physiotherapist advises exercises to strengthen the muscles supporting the joint. It effectively reduces the pain and pressure on the joint.

Shoulder Pain Treatments – relieving pain and stiffness

Our shoulder joint is one with a wide range of versatile motion. It is also one of the most complicated of the joints in our body. Shoulder pain can be quite disturbing not just because of severity or discomfort caused due to the pain, but due to its effect on free mobility.
Shoulder disorders highly limit movement or mobility, thus interfering with our daily life activities. Shoulder pain treatment depends on the cause, intensity and duration of the pain involved.
Anatomy of shoulder
Our shoulder consists of a number of joints that connects the muscles and tendons, enabling a wide range of flexible motion. A ball and socket joint, it consists of three bones, namely humerus which is the long arm bone, clavicle also called collar bone and scapular better known as the shoulder blade. An irregularity occurring in the normal working of these or the associated cartilages are known to cause shoulder pain.

Causes of shoulder pain
Shoulder pain is commonly caused due to the following problems: -
  • Instability which results in recurrent dislocation of the shoulder
  • Tendon irregularities such as inflammations as in tendinitis or bursitis, tendon tears and so on
  • Arthritis, mainly osteoarthritis which is usually found in aged patients due to wear and tear, rotator cuff tears and so on.
  • Fractures or broken bones caused due to injuries from fall or accidents.
  • Frozen shoulder which results in stiffness and pain
Shoulder pain treatment is planned after diagnosis tests to ascertain its cause and intensity. The various diagnosis tests include physical examination, X-rays, MRI or CT scans, arthroscopy and so on.
The treatment methodology followed for shoulder pain includes medications for managing pain and inflammations caused due to the disorder. In cases where the pain is not manageable by medications, surgery is performed. Surgical procedures like arthroscopy, which is a minimally invasive surgical procedure helps in effective treatment of shoulder pain.
Rathi Med Specialty Hospital based in Anna Nagar, Chennai, is specialised in advanced and latest treatment technologies for various orthopaedic disorders.

    Hip Arthroscopy which combines the benefits of Minimally Invasive Procedure and a short rehabilitation period, is one of the most rapidly evolving arthroscopy techniques. Over the past years, Hip arthroscopy is leading to a hugely improved technique. The greater understanding of the arthroscopic anatomy of the hip joint which leads to explosive increase in  the frequency of Hip Arthroscopies.
    By hip arthroscopy the conditions which are previously treatable only by open procedures  or the conditions which are unrecognized previously can be treated successfully. The technological innovations have made the procedure more accessible and reproducible.
http://www.rathimedhospital.com/impingement-resection.html


    In this surgical procedure the surgeon inserts a small camera called arthroscope in to hip joint which helps him to guide instruments into the joint to tackle the problem. Comparing with traditional open surgeries Hip arthroscopy is much better because of its advantages like faster recovery, smaller incisions and reduced stay in the hospital. The procedure can treat both the younger and the elderly who come in with arthritis, sports-related injuries and so on.
    Hip arthroscopy has revolutionized treatment for Femoral Acetabular Impingement (FAI). In addition to FAI, Hip Arthroscopy is beneficial to other hip conditions, the following are some conditions treated:
  • Biopsy - Tissue specimens can be taken to aid the diagnosis of certain conditions
  • Articular Cartilage damage
  • Synovitis - Inflammed tissue around the hip can be removed (ie, Synovectomy)
  • Psoas tendino pathy - The inflame tendon can be lengthen to reduce the irritation and inflammation
  • Abductor tendinopathy - Radio Frequency tenoplasty can be performed to stimulate neo vasulatisation.
  • Trochanteric bursitis - The inflammed bursa is removed (ie, Bursectomy)
  • Washouts - For the treatment of hip infections.

Spinal Injury Management

An injury to spine is always considered life threatening, so immediate medical attention is critical to minimize the effects of any head or neck trauma. People always have an image of open surgery with long incisions and deformations when they think about spine surgery.

With the vast development in technology, minimally invasive spine surgeries are made possible. This is done by making small incisions that does not cut or rupture tissues surrounding the bone, facilitating early healing.

Types of Spine Surgery:
Spine surgery has various forms such as micro discectomy, scoliosis correction, spine stabilisation, fracture stabilisation and decompression. Micro discectomy is done in cases of extreme persistent and disabling pain which are not cured by rest, medicine or by physiotherapy rehabilitation. This is used for speedy recovery of nerve root pain.
Spine stabilisation is done for treating vertebrae degeneration that occurs because of its inability to bear physiological load. This causes an increased movement in between vertebrae. This can be cured by a spinal fusion surgery that would take about three months for the bones to fuse together. Stability is ensured by wearing a brace. Simplified spine surgeries are now done even in the case of fractures, tumours and osteoporosis.
Scoliosis refers to a condition where an abnormal bending in the spine is detected. Scoliosis correction is done by performing a surgery that attaches screws and bones taken from other parts of the body like thighs, to straighten the bend bone. This surgery is performed when the spine is bend at an angle of 40 degree or more and continues to progress. It is effective in reforming bend spine.  


Rathi Med Specialty Hospital, Anna Nagar, Chennai, offers effective treatment in orthopaedic and gynaecology. Started in 2008, they specialise in management of spine injury, arthritis and arthroscopic management, sports injury management and joint replacement.

Restore Your Normal Life Back Through Joint Replacement Surgery

Joint Replacement Surgery is a highly effective way of eliminating joint pain, correcting a deformity, and helping improve the patient’s mobility (movement). Joint replacement surgery is also performed to treat advanced arthritis.

People who are considered for joint replacement surgery often have severe joint pain, stiffness, limping, muscle weakness, limited motion, and swelling. Depending on the joint that is affected and the amount of damage that has already taken place, the patient may have trouble performing day-to-day activities such as walking, putting on socks and shoes, getting in and out of cars, and climbing stairs.

When your joints or cartilage get worn out or damaged, the doctor will recommend a joint replacement surgery. The damaged one will be replaced by a new one, thus allowing getting back to an active lifestyle and carrying out routine activities. Acute pain in the knee, hip, and shoulder can be eliminated when these joints are replaced through this surgery.

http://www.rathimedhospital.com/joint-replacement-surgery/


Joint Replacement Surgeries

1) Minimal Invasive Joint Replacement
In this surgery, an incision of length less than 10 centimetres is made along the knee. Minimally invasive knee replacement surgery also spares the quadriceps muscles by mid or sub vastus approach. As a result, this type of surgery has its own advantages such as smaller incisions, minimal blood loss, and reduced pre and post operative pain. It requires only a minimum of one to two days of hospital stay and rehabilitation periods.

2) Partial Joint Replacement – Patella ( Knee Cap ), Uni Compartment

Uni compartmental knee replacement also known as partial knee replacement is a procedure where only the damaged compartment is replaced and the healthy bone and cartilage are left untouched. This is beneficial to patients with osteoarthritis as only one part of the knee is being operated at a particular given time. In future, if total joint replacement is needed, it is easier to revise it, thus avoiding bigger revision surgeries.

3) Minimally Invasive Total Hip Replacement

In this case, the hip joint is replaced with an implant or prosthesis enabling improved mobility and regular activities of the patient. In a minimally invasive procedure, a short incision is made and muscle conservation approach is done. This type of procedure is ideally suitable for individuals who are not obese and have a BMI less than 30 and for patients using uncemented femoral prosthesis.

At  Rathi Med, a skin incision of less than 10 cms is made and a muscle conserving approach is made to reach the deeper hip joint. This approach allows early recovery and mobilization due to less pain and better muscle function.

4) Modular Hemi Arthroplasty and Total Joint Replacement

The articular cartilage is a smooth substance that allows easy frictionless movement.

The Joint Replacement is divided into these three categories based on the patient's need
  • Hemiarthroplasty – Half joint replacement, where only the humeral head is replaced, is carried out in fracture involving humeral head where the head is too damaged to save.
  • Total shoulder joint replacement- It involves replacement of humeral head and glenoid articular surface. When a patient is suffering from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or broken bones near the arm or shoulder, torn tissues, and tumour in and around the shoulder this type of surgery is recommended. The best possible function of the arm is restored and damaged joint surfaces are replaced with artificial surfaces.
  • Reverse Shoulder Arthritis secondary to long standing rotator cuff damage may undergo reverse Shoulder replacement. Where the patient is unable to lift the arm freely, a condition which is called pseudo-paralysis of the shoulder is identified. The overhead motion of the arm is restored and pain is relieved with a reverse shoulder replacement. In a reverse shoulder replacement, the position of the ball and socket are reversed in each other’s places.

Knee Replacement Surgery is the common solution that provides complete pain relief. This modern surgical procedure is also known as Knee Arthroplasty. Knee replacement surgery can be performed as partial or total knee replacement surgery.

In traditional knee replacement surgery a 15-20 cm long incision made in the center of the knee to access the joint. The surgery takes longer recovery time.

Benefits
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Smaller incisions
  • Limited blood loss
  • Shorter rehabilitation periods
  • Less perioperative pain

In this procedure, the knee is divided into three compartments
  1. the inside or medial compartment
  2. the outside or lateral compartment
  3. kneecap or the patellofemoral compartment

In unicompartmental knee replacement only the damaged compartment is replaced. Healthy bone and cartilage are left untouched.

Benefits

  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • If total knee replacement surgery is needed in future it becomes easier to revise it.
  • Preserves healthy part of the knee.

First Time In India - Kinematic Knee Replacement In Chennai



Kinematic knee replacement technique is the latest technology which was introduced for the first time in India by Rathi Med Hospital. The hospital is best for performing knee replacement in Chennai.
What is Kinematic knee replacement?
This is the technique which uses customized and precise alignment methodologies to suit the anatomy of each person. Thus this replacement technique does not cause any changes to the natural alignment of knee. If we are using conventional knee replacement surgeries, it will take more time to get recovered and also the patient need to use painkillers to alleviate postoperative pain. Nevertheless, some surgeries can also cause instability. Kinematic knee replacement keeps away all these consequence. 
http://www.rathimedhospital.com/knee/
  • Postoperative pain is less
  • Patient can walk without any support
  • This procedure is free from complications
  • The knee can be bended properly within 2 weeks from the surgery
  • No need to use pain killers
  • Optimum functionality of the knee can be achieved
  • Recovery period is very low
Various studies have made it clear that patients can achieve good flexibility and better functionality by undergoing this Kinematic knee replacement.
