What are the Different Surgeries for Meniscus Tears?

 

The meniscus is a shock-absorbing pad of cartilage in the knee that helps cushion and stabilize the knee joint. An athletic injury, heavy lifting, or aging can damage the meniscus, potentially leading to the progression of osteoarthritis. Minor tears can sometimes heal on their own without surgery, but more severe tears often require surgical intervention.

Depending on the extent of the injury and the importance of preserving the meniscus, an orthopedic surgeon may recommend either a meniscus repair or a meniscectomy.

In meniscus repair, the surgeon inserts an arthroscope (a small camera) into the knee and uses sutures to bind the torn edges together. This allows the meniscus to heal naturally over time, as the sutures are gradually absorbed by the body. This procedure is most effective for tears in the outer region of the meniscus, where blood supply is better. However, in a meniscectomy, only the damaged portion of the meniscus is carefully trimmed and removed to restore smooth function. This procedure, known as a partial meniscectomy, has a shorter recovery time compared to meniscus repair but may increase the long-term risk of arthritis.

If you are experiencing knee pain that worsens with weight-bearing or movement, it could be a sign of a meniscus tear. Consult Dr. Biren Nadkarni, Senior Orthopedic Consultant and Surgeon, for expert diagnosis and treatment. Visit him at Joint & Bone Solutions, located at Sama Hospital, Sadiq Nagar, New Delhi. He is also available for consultations at Sitaram Bhartia Institute and Holy Family Hospital.

Are there any Weight or Age Restrictions for Robotic Knee Replacement?

 

Robotic knee replacement is a groundbreaking solution for individuals suffering from chronic knee pain and mobility issues, but many patients wonder about weight or age restrictions. Let’s find out.

Robotic knee replacement is not strictly limited by age or weight. This advanced technique is designed to provide highly accurate and personalized results, making it suitable for a wide range of patients.

Age is not a barrier if you are in overall good health. Many elderly patients benefit greatly from improved mobility and reduced pain after surgery, regaining their quality of life.

As for weight, while obesity can pose certain risks in any surgical procedure, robotic-assisted technology helps reduce complications by enhancing surgical precision and minimizing tissue damage. For patients with higher body weight, your surgeon may recommend pre-surgery weight management strategies to ensure the best outcomes.

Ultimately, every patient is unique, and the decision depends on factors like overall health, joint condition, and medical history. If knee pain is affecting your life, don’t hesitate to consult Dr. Biren Nadkarni, an Ortho specialist, to discuss whether robotic knee replacement is right for you.
