Pelviacetabular Surgery
Introduction to Pelviacetabular Surgery
- Overview of Pelviacetabular Surgery: Pelviacetabular surgery addresses complex injuries and conditions affecting the pelvis and acetabulum (hip socket). These procedures aim to restore stability, function, and relieve pain in the hip and pelvic region.
- Common Indications for Surgery: Traumatic fractures, congenital deformities, hip dysplasia, arthritis, and avascular necrosis.
- Importance of Specialized Care: The intricate anatomy of the pelvis and hip requires advanced surgical expertise for successful outcomes and minimized complications.
Conditions Treated with Pelviacetabular Surgery
- Traumatic Injuries:
- Pelvic Fractures: Breaks in the pelvic bones often resulting from high-impact trauma.
- Acetabular Fractures: Fractures of the hip socket, which can affect hip stability and function.
- Congenital and Developmental Conditions:
- Hip Dysplasia: Improper formation of the hip joint, leading to dislocation or arthritis.
- Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease: A condition where blood supply to the femoral head is temporarily interrupted, leading to bone death and regrowth.
- Degenerative Conditions:
- Osteoarthritis: Wear-and-tear arthritis causing pain and reduced mobility.
- Avascular Necrosis: Death of bone tissue due to lack of blood supply, commonly affecting the femoral head.
Advanced Diagnostic Services
- Comprehensive Clinical Evaluation: Detailed physical examination and patient history to assess symptoms and functional limitations.
- High-Resolution Imaging: Use of X-rays, CT scans, and MRI to accurately diagnose fractures and other conditions affecting the pelvis and hip.
- 3D Reconstruction: Advanced imaging techniques to create three-dimensional models for precise surgical planning.
Surgical Techniques and Approaches
- Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF): Surgical technique to realign and stabilize fractures using metal plates, screws, or rods.
- Periacetabular Osteotomy (PAO): Procedure to correct hip dysplasia by reorienting the acetabulum to improve joint stability.
- Total Hip Replacement (THR): Replacement of the damaged hip joint with a prosthetic implant to relieve pain and restore function.
- Hip Resurfacing: An alternative to total hip replacement that preserves more of the patient’s natural bone.
- Minimally Invasive Surgery: Techniques that involve smaller incisions, reducing recovery time and minimizing tissue damage.
Postoperative Care and Rehabilitation
- Immediate Postoperative Care: Close monitoring in the recovery room, effective pain management, and prevention of complications.
- Physical Therapy: Tailored rehabilitation programs focusing on restoring strength, mobility, and function.
- Long-Term Follow-Up: Regular check-ups to monitor healing and the condition of implants, ensuring long-term success of the surgery.
