The orthopedics program at Methodist McKinney Hospital specializes in orthopedics that emphasizes minimally invasive procedures that allow patients to resume living life to the fullest. The procedures done by orthopedics doctors at Methodist McKinney Hospital include: arthroscopy (examination of the inside of the joint with an endoscope) of the hands, shoulder, knee, feet, hip and ankle; acromioplasty, repair of fractures, biopsy of a muscle, excision (removal) of ganglion cysts and neuromas; platelet rich plasma injections; osteochondrial (bone and cartilage) autografts; carpal tunnel release; tendon repair; removal of hardward, ACL (anterior cruciate ligament); lumbar discectomy, total knee replacement; partial knee replacement; total hip replacement; lumbar laminectomy (removal of the boney arches of one or more vertebrae), fractures, and foot and ankle surgery. Carpal tunnel release severs the band of tissue around the wrist to release pressure on the nerve that connects the forearm to the hand. Arthroscopy, another kind of surgery in orthopedics, is also called a scope. This surgery of orthopedics allows an orthopedics doctor to look inside the patient's shoulder with a small camera. This method allows an orthopedics surgeon to diagnose problems that can involve the tendons, bones, cartilage and ligaments.
In orthopedics, ACL construction repairs a torn anterior cruciate ligament using small incisions around the knee. The holes are anchored with grafted replacement tissue. For more serious damage and deterioration of the knee, another orthopedics procedure called a total knee replacement might be recommended by a doctor of orthopedics. This orthopedics surgery replaces a bad knee joint with an artificial joint. For more information about this orthopedics procedure or any other orthopedics surgery, please visit the orthopedics doctors at Methodist McKinney Hospital.
The Total Joint Program at Methodist McKinney Hospital applies the most recent scientific advances to joint replacement. Total Joint surgery can help relieve the chronic pain caused by degenerative joints, allowing patients to literally walk out of the hospital with replacement joints within 24-48 hours of surgery.
