Balloon Pulmonary Valvuloplasty Abroad  A valvuloplasty, also known as balloon valvuloplasty or balloon valvotomy, is a procedure to repair a heart valve that has a narrowed opening. In this valve condition, the valve flaps (leaflets) may become thick or stiff, and they may fuse together (stenosis). This causes the valve opening to be narrowed and results in reduced blood flow through the valve. A valvuloplasty may improve blood flow through the valve and improve your symptoms. In a valv

Knee Ligament Surgery (PCL) treatments abroad  Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injury happens far less often than does injury to the knee's more vulnerable counterpart, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The posterior cruciate ligament and ACL connect your thighbone (femur) to your shinbone (tibia). If either ligament is torn, it might cause pain, swelling and a feeling of instability.  

Tendon Repair treatments abroad Tendon repair is surgery done to treat a torn or otherwise damaged tendon. Tendons are the soft, band-like tissues that connect muscles to bone. When the muscles contract, the tendons pull the bones and cause the joints to move. When tendon damage occurs, movement may be seriously limited. The damaged area may feel weak or painful.  

Elbow Replacement abroad The elbow is the joint between the arm and the forearms and is composed of three bones: the humerus (upper arm bone), the ulna (forearm bone on the pinky finger side) and the radius (forearm bone on the thumb side). The reasons why this joint needs to be replaced when other therapies to relieve the pain and discomfort have failed, are very similar to the ones that affect hips and knees. One of these is osteoarthritis, in which the cartilage that serves as cushion betw

Osteotomy treatments abroad Knee osteotomy is a surgical procedure that your doctor might recommend if you have arthritis damage in just one area of your knee. Osteotomy is also performed in combination with other types of knee surgery, such as cartilage surgery, if your leg is bowed or knock-kneed. Why it's done Slick cartilage covers the ends of the bones in a healthy knee and this allows the bones to move smoothly against each other. Osteoarthritis damages and wears away the cart

Ankle Replacement treatments abroad Ankle replacement surgery is the replacement of a damaged ankle joint with an artificial implant. The ankle joint (tibiotalar joint) is where your shinbone (tibia) rests on top of a bone of your foot, the talus. Arthritis can affect this joint as well as other joints in the foot. Over time, the smooth cartilage on the surface of the bones wears away. This can result in pain, inflammation, and swelling of your joint.  

Elbow Arthroscopy treatments abroad Arthroscopy is a procedure for diagnosing and treating joint problems. A surgeon inserts a narrow tube attached to a fiber-optic video camera through a small incision — about the size of a buttonhole. The view inside your joint is transmitted to a high-definition video monitor. Arthroscopy allows the surgeon to see inside your joint without making a large incision. Surgeons can even repair some types of joint damage during arthroscopy, with pencil-

Shoulder Stabilization abroad,

Shoulder Labrum Surgery abroad The three bones that make up the shoulder are the scapula (shoulder blade), clavicle (collarbone), and humerus (upper arm bone). A shallow, flat portion of the shoulder blade called the glenoid is where the labrum, a rubbery tissue, is found. The labrum's role is to create a cup-like shape known as the shoulder socket. The shoulder socket allows the arm to move normally.

Ulnar Nerve Decompression abroad,

Ankle Surgery abroad Ankle surgery may be an option when more-conservative treatments don't relieve ankle pain caused by severe arthritis. The type of surgery that's right for you depends on your age, your level of activity, and the severity of your joint damage or deformity. Severely damaged ankle joints may need to have the bones fused together or even replaced with an artificial joint.  

Dislocated Shoulder Treatment abroad  A dislocated shoulder is an injury in which your upper arm bone pops out of the cup-shaped socket that's part of your shoulder blade. The shoulder is the body's most mobile joint, which makes it susceptible to dislocation. If you suspect a dislocated shoulder, seek prompt medical attention. Most people regain full shoulder function within a few weeks.

Revision Joint Surgery abroad,

Some rotator cuff problems are easily treated at home. But if yours is severe, or lingers for more than a few months, you may need surgery.  

Synovium Removal abroad,

Acromioclavicular Joint Repair abroad,

Fracture Treatment abroad  A bone fracture is a medical condition where the continuity of the bone is broken. A significant percentage of bone fractures occur because of high force impact or stress.  However, a fracture may also be the result of some medical conditions which weaken the bones, for example osteoporosis, some cancers, or osteogenesis imperfecta.  

Hip Fracture Surgery abroad A hip fracture is a serious injury, with complications that can be life-threatening. The risk of hip fracture rises with age. Older people are at a higher risk of hip fracture because bones tend to weaken with age. Multiple medications, poor vision and balance problems also make older people more likely to trip and fall — one of the most common causes of hip fracture.  

Clubfoot Treatment abroad Clubfoot describes a range of foot abnormalities usually present at birth (congenital) in which your baby's foot is twisted out of shape or position. In clubfoot, the tissues connecting the muscles to the bone (tendons) are shorter than usual. Clubfoot is a fairly common birth defect and is usually an isolated problem for an otherwise healthy new-born.  

Elbow Surgery abroad Our orthopedic surgeons specialize in diagnosing a wide range of elbow conditions causing discomfort and pain. These conditions can be related to overuse or repetitive movements or from an injury or a disease of the elbow.

Exostosis Treatment abroad An exostosis, also called a bony spur or osteoma, occurs when a bony growth extends beyond a bone's usual smooth surface. Exostosis can cause chronic pain or irritation, depending on its size and location. Sometimes, cartilage will grow over an area of exostosis, which is called osteochondroma.  

External Fracture Fixation abroad,

During hip surgery, a surgeon removes the damaged sections of your hip joint and replaces them with parts usually constructed of metal, ceramic and very hard plastic. This artificial joint (prosthesis) helps reduce pain and improve function. Also called total hip arthroplasty, hip replacement surgery may be an option for you if your hip pain interferes with daily activities and more-conservative treatments haven't helped or are no longer effective.  

Treatment for Achilles Tendinitis abroad,

Dislocated Hip Treatment abroad When there is a hip dislocation, the femoral head is pushed either backward out of the socket, or forward. Posterior dislocation. In approximately 90% of hip dislocation patients, the thighbone is pushed out of the socket in a backwards direction. This is called a posterior dislocation. A posterior dislocation leaves the lower leg in a fixed position, with the knee and foot rotated in toward the middle of the body. Anterior dislocation. When the thighbone sl

Knee Cartilage Surgery abroad Cartilage tissue’s ability to repair itself is severely limited because it does not contain blood vessels, and bleeding is necessary for healing. A surgeon can encourage new cartilage growth by making small cuts or abrasions in the bone underneath the injured cartilage. The hope is that the blood from the damaged bone will facilitate new cartilage cell growth.  

MPFL (Medial Patellofemoral Ligament) Surgery abroad,

Morton's Neuroma Treatment abroad Morton's neuroma is a painful condition that affects the ball of your foot, most commonly the area between your third and fourth toes. Morton's neuroma may feel as if you are standing on a pebble in your shoe or on a fold in your sock.  

Abscess Debridement abroad,

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome abroad Cubital Tunnel Syndrome is a condition that involves pressure or stretching of the ulnar nerve (also known as the “funny bone” nerve), which can cause numbness or tingling in the ring and small fingers, pain in the forearm, and/or weakness in the hand.   The ulnar nerve runs in a groove on the inner side of the elbow.   

Knee Sprain Treatment abroad A knee sprain is an injury of the ligaments, tough bands of fibrous tissue that connect the bones of the upper and lower leg at the knee joint. The knee joint has four major ligaments. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) Medial collateral ligament (MCL) Lateral collateral ligament (LCL)

Scaphoid Fracture Treatment abroad A scaphoid (navicular) fracture is a break in one of the small bones of the wrist. This type of fracture occurs most often after a fall onto an outstretched hand. Symptoms of a scaphoid fracture typically include pain and tenderness in the area just below the base of the thumb. These symptoms may worsen when you try to pinch or grasp something.  

Shoulder Arthroplasty abroad The shoulder complex, composed of the clavicle, scapula, and has sacrificed stability for mobility,which makes it vulnerable and susceptible to injury, dysfunction and instability. The most common indication for an arthroplasty is pain that has not responded well to conservative management or a severe fracture. Depending upon the mechanism of dysfunction or injury a shoulder arthroplasty can either be a partial or total replacement.  

Shoulder Impingement Syndrome Treatment abroad Shoulder impingement is a common cause of shoulder pain. It’s also known as impingement syndrome or swimmer’s shoulder, since it’s common in swimmers. It’s also common in other athletes who use their shoulders a lot, such as baseball or softball players.  

Joint Injection abroad In medicine, a joint injection (intra-articular injection) is a procedure used in the treatment of inflammatory joint conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, gout, tendinitis, bursitis, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and occasionally osteoarthritis. A hypodermic needle is injected into the affected joint where it delivers a dose of any one of many anti-inflammatory agents, the most common of which are corticosteroids. Hyaluronic acid, because of its h

Baker's Cyst Treatment abroad,

Congenital Hip Dislocation Treatment abroad Congenital hip dislocation (CHD) occurs when a child is born with an unstable hip. It’s caused by abnormal formation of the hip joint during their early stages of fetal development. Another name for this condition is “developmental dysplasia of the hip.” This instability worsens as your child grows.   

Dislocated Elbow Treatment abroad A dislocated elbow occurs when the bones that make up the joint are forced out of alignment — typically when you land on an outstretched hand during a fall. The elbow is the second most commonly dislocated joint after the shoulder in adults, and the most commonly dislocated joint in children.  

Fractured Shoulder Treatment abroad Trauma may cause a fracture of the humerus (ball) or the glenoid (socket) of the shoulder joint. The majority of these injuries can be treated without surgery with a good, long-term result. Some fractures are better treated with surgery because they may carry a high risk of arthritis if left alone. Some are unlikely to heal or may heal in the wrong position if not treated surgically.  

Hand Joints Synovectomy abroad,

Osteomyelitis is an infection in a bone. Infections can reach a bone by traveling through the bloodstream or spreading from nearby tissue. Infections can also begin in the bone itself if an injury exposes the bone to germs.  

Trapped Nerve Treatment abroad A pinched nerve occurs when pressure or force is put on an area of a nerve, causing it to send warning signals to the brain. Pinched nerves are usually caused by a damaged nerve, and symptoms can include pain, numbness, and weakness  

Avascular Necrosis (AVN) Treatment abroad Avascular necrosis is the death of bone tissue due to a lack of blood supply. Also called osteonecrosis, it can lead to tiny breaks in the bone and the bone's eventual collapse. A broken bone or dislocated joint can interrupt the blood flow to a section of bone.   

Coccydynia Treatment abroad Treatment usually consists of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) -- such as ibuprofen and naproxen -- to reduce inflammation (swelling), and the use of a therapeutic sitting cushion to take the pressure off the tailbone when sitting. It might take many weeks or months of conservative treatment before there is major pain relief. Other possible treatments for coccydynia include the following: Your doctor might refer you to a biomedical engineer to be meas

Frozen Shoulder Treatment abroad  Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition characterized by stiffness and pain in your shoulder joint. Signs and symptoms typically begin gradually, worsen over time and then resolve, usually within one to three years. Your risk of developing frozen shoulder increases if you're recovering from a medical condition or procedure that prevents you from moving your arm — such as a stroke or a mastectomy.  

Hip Arthroplasty abroad Hip replacement surgery is a process in which an orthopedic surgeon eliminates an aching hip joint with arthritis and substitutes an artificial joint commonly made from metal and plastic components. It is done when all other treatment alternatives have failed to provide adequate pain relief. How much does hip arthroplasty cost abroad? The cost of hip arthroplasty ranges between USD 4000- USD 28000. Where can I find hip arthroplasty treatment abroad? Find hi

Hip Pain Treatment abroad Many people experience hip pain at some point in their life. It’s a condition that can be caused by a variety of issues. Knowing where your pain is coming from can give you clues to its cause.  Pain on the inside of your hip or groin is likely a problem within your hip joint. Pain on the outside of your hip, your upper thigh, or your outer buttocks is probably an issue with the muscles or other soft tissues around your hip joint.  Some of the most

Jumper's Knee Treatment abroad Jumper's knee is an injury of the patellar tendon. The patellar tendon is the cord-like tissue that joins the patella (kneecap) to the tibia (shinbone).  

Limb Amputation abroad It is the removal of a limb by trauma, medical illness, or surgery. As a surgical measure, it is used to control pain or a disease process in the affected limb, such as malignancy or gangrene. In some cases, it is carried out on individuals as a preventive surgery for such problems. A special case is that of congenital amputation, a congenital disorder, where fetal limbs have been cut off by constrictive bands. In some countries, amputation of the hands, feet or

Muscle Reconstruction abroad,

Osteochondritis Dissecans Treatment abroad The condition arises when a minor segment of bone begins to separate from its surrounding region due to a deficiency of blood supply. As a result, the small piece of bone and the cartilage covering it begin to crack and loosen. Warning signs comprise joint ache, stiffness, and even locking of the joint. Treatment may include nonoperative or operational intervention. Surgical treatment is indicated mainly by lesion stability, physeal closure, and clin

Osteomalacia Treatment abroad Osteomalacia refers to a marked softening of your bones, most often caused by severe vitamin D deficiency. The softened bones of children and young adults with osteomalacia can lead to bowing during growth, especially in weight-bearing bones of the legs. Osteomalacia in older adults can lead to fractures.  

Paget's Disease Treatment abroad Paget's disease of bone interferes with your body's normal recycling process, in which new bone tissue gradually replaces old bone tissue. Over time, the disease can cause affected bones to become fragile and misshapen. Paget's disease of bone most commonly occurs in the pelvis, skull, spine and legs. The risk of Paget's disease of bone increases with age. Your risk also increases if any family members have the disorder. Complicatio

Plantar Fasciitis Treatment abroad Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It involves inflammation of a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes. Plantar fasciitis commonly causes stabbing pain that usually occurs with your first steps in the morning. As you get up and move, the pain normally decreases, but it might return after long periods of standing or when you stand up after sitting.  

Shoulder Capsular Release abroad,

Trauma to the shoulder is common. Injuries range from a separated shoulder resulting from a fall onto the shoulder to a high-speed car accident that fractures the shoulder blade (scapula) or collarbone (clavicle). One thing is certain: everyone injures his or her shoulder at some point in life.  

Chondroma Treatment abroad Chondromas are extremely rare, slow-growing tumors that arise from the cartilaginous portions of bones. In the cranial region, this includes the bones of the skull base and paranasal sinuses. These benign (noncancerous) tumors are composed of mature cartilage. As they grow, they may destroy bone or cause an overgrowth of bone. They also may compress the brain but will not invade it.   

Compartment Syndrome Treatment abroad Groups of muscles, nerves, and blood vessels covered by a tough membrane (called a fascia) are called compartments. The role of the fascia, which does not stretch or expand easily, is to keep all tissues in place. Because the fascia doesn't stretch easily, any swelling or bleeding in a compartment puts pressure on the capillaries, nerves, and muscles inside the compartment. This can decrease the amount of nutrient and oxygen-rich blood reaching the ce

Osteochondrosis Treatment abroad Osteochondrosis is a family of disorders that affect bone growth in children and adolescents. The disruption of blood flow to the joints is often the cause. Though certain diseases in this family can affect older adults, they’re most likely to affect children and teenagers whose bones are still growing. Osteochondroses may cause pain and disability.   Physeal disease The main physeal disease is Scheuermann's disease, or juvenile kyphosis. Thi

Bow Legs Treatment abroad  Bowed legs in a toddler is very common. When a child with bowed legs stands with his or her feet together, there is a distinct space between the lower legs and knees. This may be a result of either one, or both, of the legs curving outward. Walking often exaggerates this bowed appearance. In most cases, bowed legs will naturally begin to straighten as the child grows. If bowed legs have not resolved by the age of 3 years, there may be an underlying cause, su

Elbow Pain Treatment abroad Elbow pain is a sharp, dull, burning, or pressure discomfort or pain that can be intermittent, constant, or shooting due to a strain, sprain, fracture, dislocation, infection, autoimmune condition, cancer, or trauma to the structures in and adjacent to the elbow joint. Although some causes of elbow pain may produce a predominance of one type of pain versus another, it is not unusual for patients to notice several types of pain.   

Little League Elbow Treatment abroad Little League elbow is a common overuse injury associated with throwing. This injury is most common in pitchers but also occurs in catchers, infielders, and outfielders. Little League elbow is the result of repetitive stress to the growth plate on the inside of the elbow. The greatest stress occurs during the acceleration phase of throwing a baseball.  

Osteoma Treatment abroad Osteomas are benign head tumors made of bone. They’re usually found in the head or skull, but they can also be found in the neck. While osteomas are not cancerous, they can sometimes cause headaches, sinus infections, hearing issues or vision problems – however, many benign osteomas don’t require treatment at all.

Snapping Hip Treatment abroad Snapping hip syndrome typically causes a hip pop, click, or snap that can be heard and/or seen, but that is not painful. People who do experience hip pain can typically bring their symptoms under control with non-surgical treatments. If non-surgical treatments do not work, surgery may be recommended.  

Treatment for Osgood-Schlatter Disease abroad The tendon below your kneecap (called the patellar tendon) attaches to the tibial tuberosity on the shinbone (called the tibia). When this tendon becomes inflamed, it can result in Osgood-Schlatter disease. Osgood-Schlatter disease is an overuse injury of the knee, common in growing adolescents.  

Wrist Instability Treatment abroad In stability is just a state that arises whenever there clearly was shifted joint kinematics where a person or even more cerebral bones goes within a unnatural pattern for a consequence of rectal injuries, inherent and/or extrinsic ligamentous injuries or joint laxity. So the wrist is left shaky to outside forces of grasp and pinch.    

Meniscus Transplant abroad A meniscus transplant or meniscal transplant is a transplant of the meniscus of the knee, which separates the thigh bone (femur) from the lower leg bone (tibia). The worn or damaged meniscus is removed and is replaced with a new one from a donor. The meniscus to be transplanted is taken from a cadaver, and, as such, is known as an allograft. Meniscal transplantation is technically difficult, as it must be sized accurately for each person, positioned properly and

Metal Implant Removal abroad Hardware removals are among the most commonly performed surgical procedures worldwide. Current literature offers little data concerning postoperative patient satisfaction. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the patients’ point of view on implant removal.  

Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) Treatment abroad Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), also known as brittle-bone disease, is a genetic (inherited) disorder characterized by bones that break easily without a specific cause. OI can affect males and females of all races.  

Pes Anserine Bursitis Treatment abroad Pes Anserine Bursitis is when there is inflammation of the pes anserine bursa, causing medial knee pain.The pes anserinus is an area on the medial (inner) side of the knee where three muscle tendons attach to the tibia (shin bone).   Pes anserinus means “goose’s foot” and it gets its name from the webbed-foot shape made by these three tendons where they join together forming one tendon and attach to the shin bone.  From fro

Boutonniere Deformity Treatment abroad A boutonniere deformity is a condition that affects the joints in one of your fingers. It causes the middle joint of your finger to bend in, and the outermost joint to bend out. It’s also called a central slip injury.  It’s often caused by rheumatoid arthritis.

Elbow Sprain Treatment abroad An elbow sprain occurs when the elbow ligaments are stretched and partly torn. A ruptured ligament can cause instability in the affected area. The ligament sprains are graded: A Grade 1 injury is a stretch of the ligaments; Grade 2 is a partial tear and Grade 3 is a complete rupture  

Toe Joint Replacement abroad,

Artificial Limb Services abroad Artificial limbs, prosthetic limbs, or prostheses are mechanical replacements for missing limbs -arms or legs. When people have the misfortune of losing their arms or legs due to injury, disease, or birth defects, artificial limbs help amputees get back to their normal functioning to a certain degree. Which other Orthopedic procedures can I find abroad? There are many accredited and modern hospitals providing high standard Orthopedic treatments abroad suc

Metatarsal Phalangeal Joint Replacement abroad The metatarsophalangeal joints are the joints between the metatarsal bones of the foot and the proximal bones (proximal phalanges) of the toes. They are condyloid joints, meaning that an elliptical or rounded surface (of the metatarsal bones) comes close to a shallow cavity (of the proximal phalanges). Traditionally, mild to moderate disease has been treated with cheilectomy or osteotomy, with more severe cases being treated with arthrodesis. Mor

Toe Implant abroad An ache in the great toe, otherwise identified as the first metatarsophalangeal joint, can be caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bone spurs, bunions, and posttraumatic injuries. When other non-surgical approaches prove to be unsuccessful at reducing your big toe arthritis pain, surgery will likely be recommended by your doctor. Implants allow your joint to move how they are supposed to for maximum mobility and range of motion. The Toe implant systems can be toe

Hammer, Claw, or Mallet Toe Treatment abroad Hammer, claw, and mallet toes are toes that are bent into an odd position. They may look strange or may hurt, or both. These toe problems almost always happen in the four smaller toes, not the big toe. A hammer toe bends down toward the floor at the middle toe joint. This causes the middle toe joint to rise up. It usually affects the second toe. Hammer toes often occur with bunions. Claw toe often affects the four smaller toes at the same time.

Kirschner Wire Removal abroad \K-wires are surgical wires that are used to hold bones in a corrected position following surgery. The K-wires stick out of the skin so that they can be easily removed once the bone has healed. They are covered with a dressing and a plaster cast and you / the patient will not be able to see them; alternatively they may be exposed out of the toe/finger. The K-wires can usually be removed in the Outpatient Department.  

Rickets Treatment abroad Rickets is the softening and weakening of bones in children, usually because of an extreme and prolonged vitamin D deficiency. Rare inherited problems also can cause rickets. Vitamin D helps your child's body absorb calcium and phosphorus from food. Not enough vitamin D makes it difficult to maintain proper calcium and phosphorus levels in bones, which can cause rickets.  

Leg Length Discrepancy (LLD) Treatment abroad  Leg length discrepancy (LLD) or anisomelia, is defined as a condition in which the paired lower extremity limbs have a noticeably unequal length. Leg length discrepancy (LLD) has been a controversial issue among researchers and clinicians for many years. Its presence is accepted but there is little consensus as to its many aspects, including the extent of LLD considered to be clinically significant, the prevalence, reliability and validit

Osteoarthritis Consultation abroad Osteoarthritis is predominantly managed in primary care, and comprehensive guidance suggests that much can be done to alleviate symptoms from osteoarthritis; a combination of therapeutic options including pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments are recommended. If any of your joints are painful, stiff, or swollen, it is important to consult your doctor. Consultation helps to establish a diagnosis, to have rapid access to treatment that can relieve

Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (ACI) abroad Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is an established and well-accepted process for the treatment of localized full-thickness cartilage deformity of the knee. It provides pain relief while at the same time slowing down the progression or considerably delaying partial or total joint replacement (knee replacement) surgery.  Where can I find autologous chondrocyte implantation treatment abroad? Find autologous chondrocyte implanta

Trochleoplasty abroad A trochleoplasty is a rare procedure that is performed in patients that have type B or type D trochlear dysplasia. In these patients, the trochlea can be either flat or dome shaped, which results in severe instability of the patellofemoral joint.  

Ankle Fusion Surgery abroad In this procedure, the surgeon roughens the ends of the damaged bones and then fastens them together with metal plates and screws. During the healing process, the damaged bones fuse together into one combined bone. Ankle fusion is usually very successful in relieving arthritis pain. But it also reduces the ankle's motion. To make up for this, nearby joints may move more — which increases the risk of developing arthritis in these joints. Ankle fusion
