Sports Medicine

The speciality of Sports Medicine deals with preventing, diagnosing, treating, and rehabilitating injuries caused by athletic activity. The majority of these disorders are treated using arthroscopic surgery, a minimally invasive technique that involves using a camera to view inside the joint and specially designed instruments to perform any necessary surgical procedure.

In Sports Medicine, orthopaedic surgeons, non-operative sports specialists, rehabilitation specialists, athletic trainers, and physical therapists work together as a team. CARE Hospitals is one of the best hospital for sports injuries that has the most widely respected Sports Medicine Team in the world for treating sports-related injuries.

Arthroscopy

At CARE Hospitals, orthopaedic surgeons treat many different kinds of bone and joint disorders with minimally invasive techniques. Orthopaedic surgeries with minimally invasive techniques are usually performed using an arthroscope, a thin, special tool designed to view and treat problems inside the joints. Unlike large incisions, the arthroscope requires only one or more tiny cuts through the skin to be introduced into the joint.

An arthroscope is equipped with an advanced miniature camera and a specialized lighting system that make it possible for the structures inside the joint to be viewed on a monitor. In addition to the arthroscope, the surgeon can attach tools to the end to remove tissue or bone that has become inflamed. Surgical procedures involving the joints, such as arthroscopic or keyhole, are routinely performed.

Arthroscopy is generally used to repair cartilage or meniscus damage in the knee and rotator cuff tears in the shoulder. At CARE Hospitals, more than 300 arthroscopic procedures are performed each year. Keyhole surgery is also available for hip resurfacing.
