The synovial membrane secretes synovial fluid (a clear, sticky fluid) around the joint to lubricate it. Ligament. A type of tough, elastic connective tissue that surrounds the joint to give support and limits the joint's movement. Tendon. A type of tough connective tissue that connects muscles to bones and helps to control movement of the joint. Meniscus. A curved part of cartilage in the knees and other joints that acts as a shock absorber, increases contact area, and deepens the knee joint.

Description

Knee Treatment by Dr. Darshan Sonawane. In arthritis, Joints behave like a rusted door hinge Arthritis makes the patient feel old even though they are still in the prime of life making them to curb or to quit the activities they want to enjoy Ligament Injuries There are 4 major ligaments in the knee. Ligaments are elastic bands of tissue that connect bones to each other and provide stability and strength to the joint. The four main ligaments in the knee connect the femur (thighbone) to the tibia (shin bone), and include the following: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The ligament, located in the center of the knee, that controls rotation and forward movement of the tibia (shin bone). Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). The ligament, located in the back of the knee, that controls backward movement of the tibia (shin bone). Medial collateral ligament (MCL). The ligament that gives stability to the inner knee. Lateral collateral ligament (LCL). The ligament that gives stability to the outer knee. Knee Replacement Knee replacement, also called knee arthroplasty or total knee replacement, is a surgical procedure to resurface a knee damaged by arthritis. Metal and plastic parts are used to cap the ends of the bones that form the knee joint, along with the kneecap. This surgery may be considered for someone who has severe arthritis or a severe knee injury. The goal of knee replacement surgery is to resurface the parts of the knee joint that have been damaged and to relieve knee pain that cannot be controlled by other treatments.

Arthroscopy Surgery

Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure in which an arthroscope is inserted into a joint. Arthroscopy is a term that comes from two Greek words, arthro- meaning joint and – scope meaning to examine. Arthroscopy is performed in a hospital operating room under general anesthesia. The arthroscope is a small fiber-optic viewing instrument made up of a tiny lens, light source and video camera. The surgical instruments used in arthroscopic surgery are very small (only 3 or 4 mm in diameter), but appear much larger when viewed through an arthroscope. The television camera attached to the arthroscope displays the image of the joint on a television screen, allowing the surgeon to look, for example, throughout the knee-at cartilage and ligaments, and under the kneecap. The surgeon can determine the amount or type of injury and then do the repair. Usually, this procedure is performed on a patient under spinal or general anesthesia. Often, Arthroscopic surgeries for sports injuries are used in a blend with other methods or open surgeries. The most common condition, whereArthroscopysurgery is used, is to treat tendon tears in the knee. Other conditions include torn ligaments & cartilage, carpal tunnel syndrome, inflammation of the joint lining, tears in rotator cuffs & loosening of cartilage and bones.

Rehab & Physiotherapy

Rehab & Physiotherapy Physical therapy exercises can improve the ability to use parts of the body that have been affected by disease or injury. For example, arthritis is a long-term condition that causes pain and stiff joints. Physical therapy can help to keep the joints mobile (able to move) and strengthen the surrounding muscles. Physiotherapists may work in hospitals, private practices, or with social services. people are increasingly resorting to physical therapy as a holistic healing method to achieve a healthier life. The entire process involves diagnosis, prognosis & treatment which results in promoting mobility, flexibility & pain relief, or cure. All have expert experience physiotherapists in our team.

Total Knee Replacement

Total Knee Replacement A total knee replacement (TKR) or total knee arthroplasty is an operation to replace a knee joint that is affected by arthritis. Total Knee Replacement surgery replaces the arthritic knee joint with highly specialized metal and plastic implants. The artificial knee joint is made from a surgical-grade metal alloy with a special wear resistant plastic insert. Total Knee Replacement is one of the most successful operations available today with over 90% still functioning well at 15 years. Prior to surgery you will usually have tried some conservative treatments such as simple analgesics, weight loss, anti-inflammatory medications, modification of your activities, walking aids, or physical therapy.
