Minimal invasive surgeries in foot & ankle
What are Minimally Invasive Surgeries in Foot & Ankle?
With our deep roots in Orthopaedic care, we aim to improve the living standards of the people of Ahmedabad and surrounding cities. Our Amble Foot and Ankle Centre in Ahmedabad is renowned for ankle trauma treatment. We prioritize your health and deliver the best services for your minimally invasive foot and ankle surgery.
The surgeries performed with the help of advanced surgical techniques and unique instruments and incisions in the foot and ankle are termed Minimally Invasive Surgeries. This surgery focuses on leaving less impact on the tissues surrounding the impacted area.
Signs and Symptoms
- Cones and Collosites under Farefoot
- Deformities such as bunions or hammertoes
- Flat foot deformity
Types of Diagnosis We Offer
Osteotomy with Shannon burr
In certain conditions like bunions or hammertoes, Minimal invasive surgeries do not work out. Hence, osteotomy with Shannon Burr is recommended. Shannon burr is a unique tool that is used to make precise cuts in the bone to realign and stabilize it. Since the surgery involves small incisions, the surrounding tissues are less damaged, and the recuperation time is reduced.
Fixation with minimal invasion approach
A fixation with less invasion treats and stabilises broken or fractured foot or ankle bones. Small incisions are used in this procedure. For the same, specialized tools and imaging methods are used to determine where the rods, screws, or plates should be placed. This treatment works best for quick healing, fewer side effects, and minimal harm to the surrounding tissues. It is often utilized for fractures and injuries.
Minimally Invasive Flat foot deformity correction (Hyprocure) (EOTTS)
This is a sickness where the foot can pain and become flattened (pes planus). This could happen for several reasons, but most of the time, it’s because of the Tibialis Posterior muscle and ligaments on the foot and ankle. In some cases, arthritis is to blame.
A tiny titanium stent is inserted during the minimally invasive HyProCure operation to assist in the alignment of the ankle and heel bones. Hyperpronation, often known as flat feet and irregular gait, causes foot discomfort and exhaustion and is caused by misalignment of these bones.
General Treatment for Minimally Invasive Surgeries
Following foot and ankle minimally invasive surgery, the standard course of
treatment consists of:
- Medicines to ease the pain of surgery recovery.
- Ensuring surgical incisions are kept clean and dry to avoid infection.
- Exercises to restore strength, flexibility, and function.
- Scheduled checkups to assess progress and make course corrections as necessary during treatment.
Recovery
Each patient responds to this treatment differently; hence, their recovery period is wholly based on it. Pills and medication will be prescribed after the surgery and supervision of doctors. The experts will suggest precautions to keep your wounds dry and prevent infection. Physical therapy works best for strength and flexibility.
