Trauma, Fracture & Joint Replacement

Advanced management of bone fractures, complex trauma, joint preservation, Total Knee Replacement (TKR), and Total Hip Replacement (THR).

Clinical Focus: Musculoskeletal trauma, complex bone fractures, and severe degenerative joint arthritis require expert anatomical fixation and advanced reconstruction. Dr. Rajender Reddy (Consultant Orthopedic Surgeon, SLG Hospital) provides specialized orthopedic care in Bachupally, Hyderabad, covering fracture fixation, joint replacement, and mobility restoration.

Orthopedic Conditions Evaluated & Treated

  • Trauma & Bone Fractures: Upper and lower extremity fractures (wrist, forearm, humerus, femur, tibia, ankle) managed with closed reduction/casting or Open Reduction & Internal Fixation (ORIF).
  • Total Knee Replacement (TKR): Advanced joint replacement for severe end-stage Osteoarthritis of the knee with precision alignment implants.
  • Total & Partial Hip Replacement (THR / Hemiarthroplasty): Treatment for femoral neck fractures, avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head, and severe hip arthritis.
  • Osteoporosis & Fragility Fractures: Bone Mineral Density (BMD / DEXA) evaluation, antiresorptive medical therapy, and vertebral compression fracture care.
  • Chronic Joint & Musculoskeletal Pain: Shoulder, knee, and hip degenerative joint management with intra-articular therapies.

Diagnostic Investigation & Imaging Pathway

Digital Radiography (X-Ray)

Multi-view high-resolution digital X-rays to assess fracture displacement, bone quality, and joint space narrowing.

CT & 3D Reconstruction

High-speed CT scans for complex intra-articular fractures (tibial plateau, acetabulum, pilon fractures).

Bone Health Panel

Serum Calcium, Vitamin D3, Alkaline Phosphatase, Uric Acid, and DEXA bone density correlation.

Surgical Technique & Rapid Mobility Rehabilitation

  1. Biological Internal Fixation: Utilizing anatomical locking compression plates (LCP) and intramedullary interlocking nails to ensure rigid stability with minimal soft tissue disruption.
  2. Sub-Millimeter Joint Alignment: Precision bone cuts and ligament balancing during knee and hip replacement for natural joint kinematics and longevity.
  3. Multimodal Pain Protocol: Advanced nerve blocks and local infiltration analgesia enabling painless early post-op walking.
  4. Supervised Physiotherapy: Day-1 post-op mobilization, gait training, and progressive range-of-motion exercises.

Frequently Asked Questions

With modern high-grade titanium/cobalt-chromium implants and highly cross-linked polyethylene inserts, contemporary joint replacements typically last 20 to 25 years or more when performed with precise alignment.
Under modern rapid rehabilitation protocols, patients are assisted to stand and walk with a walker on the same evening or the morning following surgery. Most patients walk independently without aids in 3 to 4 weeks.
Undisplaced, stable fractures can be treated with a plaster cast or fiberglass splint. Surgery (plates, screws, or nails) is recommended when the fracture is displaced, involves a joint surface, is unstable, or when early joint movement is necessary to prevent stiffness.
