Foot treatment

A) Keyhole Hip Surgeries:

Keyhole hip surgeries, also known as minimally invasive hip surgeries, are advanced techniques used to treat various hip conditions. Some common keyhole hip surgeries include:

  • PFN (Proximal Femoral Nail): PFN is a surgical technique used to stabilize fractures of the proximal femur, including hip fractures. It involves the insertion of a metal nail into the femur, allowing for stable fixation and facilitating healing.
  • ILN (Intramedullary Hip Screw): ILN is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat certain types of hip fractures. It involves the placement of a hip screw and a specially designed plate within the femur to stabilize the fracture and promote healing.

 

B) Hip Partial and Total Replacement Surgeries for Hip Fractures:

Hip replacement surgeries are commonly performed to treat severe hip fractures. In partial hip replacement, only the damaged portion of the hip joint is replaced, while total hip replacement involves the complete replacement of the hip joint. These surgeries aim to relieve pain, improve mobility, and restore functionality.

C) Complicated Distal Femur and Proximal Tibia Surgeries:

Complex fractures of the distal femur and proximal tibia may require surgical intervention. These surgeries involve meticulous realignment and fixation of the fractured bones using techniques such as open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) or external fixation. The goal is to promote proper healing and restore optimal function.

D) Keyhole Surgeries of Tibia Fractures (ILN):

Keyhole surgeries, specifically intramedullary nailing (ILN), are commonly used to treat tibia fractures. This minimally invasive procedure involves the insertion of a metal rod into the intramedullary canal of the tibia to stabilize the fracture and facilitate healing.

E) Keyhole Sports Injury Surgeries:

Keyhole surgeries are frequently employed to address sports-related injuries in the lower extremity. These surgeries may involve procedures such as arthroscopy, ligament repair, or cartilage restoration to treat conditions like meniscal tears, ligamentous injuries (such as ACL or PCL tears), or cartilage damage.

F) Ankle Fractures and Ligament Surgeries:

Ankle fractures and ligament injuries are common in sports or accidents. Treatment options include surgical intervention to realign and stabilize the fractured bones or repair the damaged ligaments. Procedures may involve the use of screws, plates, or other fixation devices to promote proper healing and restore ankle function.

G) Foot Trauma Surgeries:

Foot trauma surgeries encompass a range of procedures to address injuries to the foot. Some common foot trauma surgeries include:

  • Lisfranc Injury (Open and Closed Management): Lisfranc injuries involve damage to the midfoot region, specifically the Lisfranc joint complex. Surgical management may be necessary to realign and stabilize the affected bones and joints.
  • Metatarsal and Phalanx Fractures (CMR and K-wiring): Closed manipulation and reduction (CMR) and K-wiring are surgical techniques used to treat fractures of the metatarsals and phalanges. These procedures involve aligning the fractured bones and securing them using wires or pins to promote healing.
  • Open Reduction and Fixation Using Mini Plating: Open reduction and fixation with mini plating may be performed to stabilize complex foot fractures. This technique involves using small plates and screws to fixate the fractured bones, allowing for proper healing and restoration of foot function.

Conclusion:

Orthopedic surgeries for lower extremity conditions aim to restore function, alleviate pain, and improve quality of life. Keyhole hip surgeries, hip replacement for fractures, complicated femur and tibia surgeries, keyhole tibia fracture surgeries, keyhole sports injury surgeries, ankle fractures and ligament surgeries, and foot trauma surgeries offer customized treatment approaches tailored to individual patient needs. Consultation with an orthopedic specialist is essential for accurate diagnosis and the development of a personalized treatment plan.
