Our orthopedic hospital has state-of-the-art facilities and an exceptional team of orthopedic doctors who treat a number of orthopedic issues, whether they are general, complex or emergency cases.
To best examine and decide the best treatment for you, your initial assessment will be done by a general orthopedic surgeon. If more serious examination is required this may be followed by specialist examination.
Our orthopedists perform a variety of procedures including knee ligament tear surgery (with the most common being ACL repair surgery, partial and total knee replacement, total hip replacement, computer navigation-assisted joint replacement, shoulder injury repair surgery and spine surgery (especially minimally invasive techniques), all of which are performed by some of the best orthopedic surgeons in Hyderabad.
What is ACL Reconstruction
ACL reconstruction is a surgery to replace a torn anterior cruciate ligament in either of the knees These injuries predominantly occur in sports that involve sudden stops and changes in direction such as basketball, football, and gymnastics.
Before arthroscopy (keyhole surgery) was developed, this surgery was commonly performed as an open procedure. Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction is now the gold standard in treating ACL tears. The latest option for reconstruction is known as the All-In-technique. Since this is a minimally invasive surgery, one tendon graft is required here; it leaves little to no scarring and recovery time is faster than in conventional surgery.
1.Why get ACL surgery?
Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction is commonly performed by orthopedic doctors in patients with ACL tear injuries. These injuries most commonly occur among sports persons and those who are in motorbike accidents. Arthroscopic repairs also can be done in patients with bony avulsion injuries.
1.Preoperative Preparation
Routine blood, urine and cardiac tests as well as a pre-operative anaesthetic check up will be done before the surgery depending on your overall health.
Implant option;
If you are a candidate for ACL surgery, an orthopedic surgeon will determine the best type of implant for you. The following implant options are available:
For all the implants, imported options are preferred as they have been observed to provide better results over local implants.
What to expert
During ACL surgery, two grafts, i.e. hamstring grafts, patellar tendon or quadriceps graft from the same side are taken and prepared by your orthopedic surgeon. These will then be placed at the site of the ACL and fixed with a tight rope and screws.
In case of the All-In technique, only one graft is taken and minimal bone drilling will be done. Fixing will be done with tight rope on both ends.
Physiotherapy Requirement
Physiotherapy will begin on the day that the surgery is completed. Physiotherapy is essential for 1-2 weeks after the surgery. Then a rehabilitation program will be designed depending on your recovery. For sports persons, an individually customized physio programme will be designed depending on the type of sport played.
Post Op care
After the surgery, a long leg knee brace will have to be worn for 6 weeks.
Post Op Care
Ten days after the procedure, you will be required to visit the hospital to get the sutures removed. Follow-up check ups will then be done after 6 weeks and then again at 3 and 9 months.
What is Meniscal Repairs ?
Each of your knees has two menisci-a C-shaped piece of tough and rubbery cartilage that act as a shock absorber between your shin bone and the thigh bone. They also help to cushion the joint and keep it stable. When the meniscus is torn, it causes pain, swelling and stiffness.
How the meniscal tear is treated highly depends on the type of tear, its size and location. The outer one-third of the meniscus is called the “red” zone and it has a rich blood supply. A tear here often heals on its own or can be repaired by surgery. The inner two-thirds of the meniscus on the other hand, lack blood supply. So this “white” zone cannot heal, and damaged cartilage has to be trimmed away.
Why get meniscal repair?
This procedure is required for people with a meniscal tear (outer 1/3 rd of meniscus). This causes locking of the knee, pain while climbing stairs and an inability to do daily activities. Younger individuals usually tear the meniscus traumatically by twisting on a slightly flexed knee. Older adults may tear it due to natural age-related degeneration”
1.Preoperative Preparation
Routine blood, urine and cardiac tests as well as a pre-operative anaesthetic check up will be done before the surgery.
Implant option;
An anchor suture construct will be used. Imported ones are ideal.
what to expert
Meniscal repairs in Zoi’s orthopedic clinic are done using bio-absorbable sutures through an arthroscopy (keyhole surgery). The procedure will be quick and painless.
Physiotherapy Requirement
Physiotherapy will begin on the day that the surgery is completed. Physiotherapy is essential for 1-2 weeks after the surgery. Then a rehabilitation program will be designed depending on your recovery. For sports persons, an individually customized physio programme will be designed depending on the type of sport played.

Post-operative physiotherapy is commenced immediately after the procedure and will be done in sessions, with each session having about 3 to 4 sittings. The number of session will depend on your routine activity levels.
Post op follow up
You will be required to visit the hospital once a month for the first 2 months after the procedure. Follow-up check ups will have to be done again at 3 and 6 months.
What is Regenerative Orthopedics (PRP Instillation)
“PRP Instillation has been used to treat to treat a number of musculoskeletal injuries involving tendon, ligament, cartilage and bone. Do develop a PRP preparation, blood is drawn from a patient. The platelets are then separated from other blood cells and their concentration is increased through centrifugation.
This increased concentration of platelets is then combined with the remaining blood. Lab studies have shown that the increased concentration of growth factors in PRP may help speed up the healing process. As this is a non-surgical process, there will be no hospitalization, no scarring and minimal side-effects.
Why get PRP instillation?
This orthopedic procedure is commonly used to treat knee pain (in early stage osteoarthritis), plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, rotator cuff injury, tendinopathies and sports injuries. PRP is also used to treat non union in fracture management.
1.Preoperative Preparation
Analgesics or painkillers are avoided for this procedure.

What is Shoulder Replacement ?
Shoulder joint replacement, while less common than knee or hip replacement, is very effective in relieving pain and improving mobility due to arthritis or complex trauma. This procedure is recommended for people with severe pain, weakness or loss of motion in their shoulder who have found little or no relief from simpler treatments.
The shoulder has the head of the humerus (shoulder head) and the glenoid (shoulder cup). In this procedure, the whole or damaged parts of the shoulder joint are removed and replaced with prosthetic implants.
Why get a shoulder replacement?
Shoulder replacement is required for individuals with shoulder arthritis who have deep aching pain and are unable to do daily activities like combing their hair, reaching high shelves and who often suffer from disturbed sleep due to pain.
1.Preoperative Preparation
Routine blood, urine and cardiac tests as well as a pre-operative anaesthetic check up will be done before the surgery.
Implant option
If you are a candidate for surgery, one of our orthopedic doctors will determine the best type of implant for you. We use a variety of prosthesis and at Zoi we prefer to use implants which are internationally used with proven clinical results.
what to expert
This procedure is done by an orthopedic surgeon under general anaesthesia. After being anaesthetised in the a beach chair position, a cut will be made along the lateral (outer ) aspect of your shoulder. The joint will then be opened up by the orthopedic surgeon and the damaged humeral head will be cut off, In case the cup (glenoid) is damaged, then the surface will be cleaned.
Trial implants will then be inserted to verify the size and once found satisfactory, the bone ends will be washed prior to impacting the final implants with or without bone cement. The wound is then sutured and the shoulder is immobilised in a sling. Following the surgery, you will be placed in the ICU for a day for observation.
Physiotheraphy Requirement
Physiotherapy will begin 6 weeks post surgery for 1-2 weeks.
Post Op care
After surgery, the shoulder is protected by an arm sling which aids in tissuehealing. A physiotherapy program will be designed for you, which consists of gradual enhancement of movement and strength. This will continue with periodical intervention of a physiotherapist over a period of 2 months.
Post op follow up
Ten days after the procedure, you will be required to visit the hospital to get the sutures removed. Follow-up check ups will then be done after 6 weeks and then again at 3, 6 and 9 months.
What isTotal Knee Replacement ?
Total knee replacement (TKR) as the name suggests is a surgical procedure where the natural but worn out (arthritic) knee joint is replaced by an artificial knee prosthesis.
Recognized as one of the most successful procedures in all of medicine, well over one lakh people undergo knee replacement surgery each year in India alone. Many of these are performed at Zoi’s orthopedic hospital.
Your orthopedic surgeon at Zoi’s clinic will provide expert, coordinated care for knee surgery which can help you reduce or eliminate pain and discomfort, allow easier movement and get you back on your feet
As you age, you may notice pain, stiffness, swelling in one or both knees, which can be the result of natural wear and tear. What happens is the protective coating between your bones (cartilage) wears out, making even the most routine movements a painful experience due to rubbing of the exposed surfaces with each other.
If left untreated, a painful condition called osteoarthritis may arise. This leads to bone deterioration as well as pain and inflammation, which results in restricted movement.
Preoperative Preparation
Our orthopedic doctors will provide you with a thorough examination and diagnosis so that if a procedure is needed, you will understand your options. You will be scheduled for surgery only if all other traditional measures such as exercise, physical therapy and or medications fail to improve your condition.

A herniated disk, also called a slipped disk, ruptured disk, bulging disk or disk prolapse puts pressure on the nerves of the spine. This occurs when some of the soft material inside the disk pushes out through a crack in the tougher exterior..
A herniated disk in the lower back that pinches a nerve may cause severe leg pain, numbness or weakness. To relieve these symptoms, the whole disk or a part of the disk is surgically removed in a procedure called a discectomy.”
Why get spinal surgery?
You may be required to undergo a Spine Surgery if you have trouble standing or walking because of nerve weakness, conservative treatments such as physical therapy or steroid injections don’t help improve symptoms after 6 to 12 weeks or pain radiates into your buttocks.

Routine blood, urine and cardiac tests as well as a pre-operative anaesthetic check up will be done before the surgery.
What to expert
For the spinal surgery, you will be positioned face-down and a small incision (sometimes less than 1 inch) will be made by your orthopedic surgeon over the location of the herniated disk. The orthopedist will then insert a retractor and remove a small amount of the lamina bone. This will provide them with a view of the spinal nerve and the disk. The surgeon will then carefully retract the nerve and remove the damaged disk. This minimally invasive technique can also be used for herniated disks in the neck.

what Shoulder Arthroscopic Bankart repair
Shoulder dislocation and recurrent shoulder dislocation are common problems seen in the sporting population. It can also occur in people who are in automobile accidents and those who suffer from seizures.Normally, the ball of the shoulder joint (humeral head) remains centered in the socket of the joint (glenoid). When the arm is forced backwards, the glenoid labrum and ligaments can be torn. If the labrum and ligaments do not heal, the ball will slip from the center of the glenoid frequently even with the application of minimal force.Theorthopedic surgery required to repair this tear is called Bankart repair, which is done arthroscopically (by keyhole surgery).
Why get arthroscopic Bankart repair?
“Shoulder dislocation causes tear(s) in the tissue surrounding the cup of the shoulder. This can lead to recurrent dislocations and instability of the shoulder.
The lesion (tear) is known as a Bankart tear. This term is used synonymously with shoulder dislocations. In arthroscopic Bankart repair, the tissue torn from the front of the socket will be sewn back to the rim of the socket. “

Frozen shoulder or adhesive capsulitis is a condition that causes stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. Treatment of frozen shoulder involves range-of-motion exercises and sometimes, arthroscopic surgery.
The bones, ligaments and tendons in the shoulder joint are encased in connective tissue. When this tissue thickens and tightens around the shoulder join, movement is restricted.
Doctors are not sure exactly why this happens, but it has been observed to be more common in diabetics and those who have recently had to immobilize their shoulder for a long period.
Why get arthroscopic capsular release?
