From sports injuries, arthritis, or joint wear and tear due to age, our experienced orthopaedic surgeons give individualized treatment incorporating the newest medical and surgical treatments.

What Is Orthopaedic Surgery

Orthopaedic surgery specializes in diagnosing and treating the conditions of the musculoskeletal system — bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and the spine. Our team provides the treatment for a large variety of orthopaedic issues, including:

• Bone fractures and deformities
• Joint disorders such as arthritis and dislocations
• Injuries to muscle, tendons, and ligaments
• Spine disorders such as herniated discs and scoliosis

We provide surgical as well as non-surgical treatment options according to your condition's severity and your lifestyle requirements.

Common Orthopaedic Procedures in Echelon Hospital

Our orthopaedic surgeons carry out numerous procedures such as:

• Fracture Repair: Alignment and immobilization of fractured bones with the aid of plates, screws, or rods.
• Arthroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure involving a little camera to diagnose and treat joint problems.
• Spinal Surgeries: Cure for slipped discs, spinal stenosis, or spinal deformities through surgical procedures like laminectomy or spinal fusion.
• Rotator Cuff Repair: Designed to recover shoulder strength and function by restoring torn tendons.

Specialized Joint Replacement Surgery

Joint replacement surgery is considered one of the most successful therapies for persistent joint pain and loss of motion. It entails replacing worn joints with artificial prosthetic components that imitate the normal function of joints. Our most frequently performed replacements are:

Hip Replacement (Total Hip Arthroplasty)
Best suited for patients with severe hip fracture or arthritis. The affected hip joint is replaced by a prosthetic ball-and-socket joint to restore function and alleviate pain.

Knee Replacement (Total Knee Arthroplasty)
Suitable for patients with advanced trauma or arthritis damage. The knee joint is replaced by an artificial implant for smooth and stable motion.

Shoulder Replacement
Used to fix arthritis or rotator cuff damage that has significantly impaired shoulder function. The injured joint surfaces are replaced with metal or plastic implants.

We also perform joint replacements of the ankle, wrist, elbow, and fingers when required.

When Is Joint Replacement Necessary?

Joint replacement usually becomes a consideration when non-surgical treatments like medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications no longer work. Some of the most common conditions that result in joint replacement include:

• Osteoarthritis
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Post-traumatic arthritis
• Avascular necrosis (death of bone tissue due to insufficiency of blood supply)

Recovery & Rehabilitation

Recovery from joint replacement is individual. At Echelon Hospital, we walk you through every step — from pre-surgery planning to post-op rehabilitation. Our physiotherapy team closely coordinates with you to rebuild strength, restore range of motion, and ensure a seamless return to daily activities.

We also offer prehabilitation programs (pre-surgery therapy), online education sessions, and personalized rehabilitation plans to maximize your outcome and reduce recovery time.
