Orthopaedic trauma surgery plays a crucial role in healing fractured bones and restoring the anatomical alignment of joint surfaces, enabling patients to recover and regain maximum function in the injured body part. In Prime Med Tours, we have experienced surgeons who specialize in orthopedic trauma and perform minimally invasive procedures.
​
Orthopedic trauma surgery is typically performed in cases involving fractures in the pelvis, femur, hip, arm, leg, and joints, as well as ankle fractures, dislocations of bones, traumatic spine injuries, and multiple broken bones.
​
Common surgeries in orthopedic trauma include joint replacements, shoulder replacements, spine surgery, trauma surgery for serious injuries, and surgeries for hand and foot fractures and dislocations. Our skilled surgeons assess the damage to the joint or bone and utilize metal and plastic implants to restore normal function and range of motion.
​
There are several benefits to orthopedic trauma surgery, including safe fixation of fractures and dislocations, equal treatment for all patients, minimally invasive techniques, and expert guidance in rehabilitation and post-surgery exercises. Our goal is to achieve accurate reduction, stable fixation, and proper rehabilitation, ensuring early return to work with minimal complications.
​
However, it is important to note that proper physiotherapy-guided rehabilitation is essential for successful outcomes. Regular consultations with a physiotherapist and following a post-surgery exercise program are crucial for optimal healing and recovery.
Our staff will provide guidance and support throughout the rehabilitation process to help patients achieve the best possible results.
