Best Knee Specialist in Mumbai
Dedicated Knee Treatment for Strength, Performance, and Lasting Relief
At SportsOrtho, we specialize in treating complex knee ligament injuries, offering advanced solutions to help athletes and active individuals recover strength, stability, and confidence in their movements.
Our Knee Treatments
Complex Knee Ligament Injuries (Posterolateral and Posteromedial Corner Injuries):
These injuries affect critical stabilizing areas of the knee.
Damage to the posterolateral (outer rear) or posteromedial (inner rear) corners of the knee can lead to significant instability and difficulty with movement.
Treatment typically involves surgical reconstruction to restore stability, often using grafts to replace the damaged ligaments.
Arthroscopic ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) and PCL (Posterior Cruciate Ligament) Reconstruction with Meniscal Repair:
The ACL and PCL are essential ligaments that allow proper knee movement and stability. Injuries to these ligaments are often repaired using arthroscopy, a minimally invasive technique.
In cases where the meniscus is also torn, we repair it during the same procedure, helping restore both stability and cushioning to the knee.
Multiligament Knee Injuries with MCL (Medial Collateral Ligament) and LCL (Lateral Collateral Ligament) Tears:
When multiple knee ligaments are injured, it requires a comprehensive reconstructive approach.
We perform multiligament knee reconstructions, which may include using an autograft (a patient’s tissue) or an allograft (donor tissue) to rebuild the torn ligaments, allowing the knee to regain stability and function.
Tendon Tears, Including Achilles Tendon Tears
The Achilles tendon, crucial for foot movement and mobility, is particularly prone to tears. When a tendon tear occurs, it can be challenging for patients to walk or perform athletic activities.
At SportsOrtho, we repair Achilles tendon tears, often using allografts to reconstruct the tendon when needed. This technique helps patients regain strength, mobility, and return to their active lifestyle with confidence.
Meniscus Repair
The meniscus is a C-shaped cartilage structure located in the knee joint, acting as a cushion between the femur (thigh bone) and tibia (shin bone). Each knee has two menisci—the medial meniscus on the inner side and the lateral meniscus on the outer side.
Arthroscopy offers a precise, minimally invasive solution for repairing or removing torn meniscal cartilage in the knee. Through small incisions, a tiny camera and specialized tools are used to fix or trim the damaged meniscus, restoring knee stability and function.
This approach speeds up recovery, reduces pain, and helps active individuals and athletes maintain knee health. Meniscus repair is essential for those relying on knee strength and mobility, as early treatment can prevent further joint damage and reduce the risk of osteoarthritis.
Patellofemoral Instability
Patellofemoral instability occurs when the kneecap (patella) moves abnormally, which can cause pain and limit physical activity. To address this condition, our clinic offers the following treatments:
⦁ MPFL Repair/Reconstruction: The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is essential for keeping the kneecap in place. By repairing or reconstructing the MPFL, we restore stability to the knee and help prevent future dislocations.
⦁ Tibial Tuberosity Transfers (TT Transfers): This procedure involves adjusting the position of the tibial tuberosity to improve the kneecap’s tracking, relieve pain, and enhance overall knee function.
⦁ Trochleoplasty for Trochlear Dysplasia: For patients with trochlear dysplasia (an abnormal shape of the groove where the kneecap rests), trochleoplasty reshapes the groove to provide better stability for the kneecap and reduce instability.
High Tibial Osteotomies
High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a surgical procedure designed to realign the knee joint by cutting and repositioning the tibia. It is often used to relieve pressure on the damaged part of the knee, particularly in cases of osteoarthritis.
By redistributing weight across the knee joint, HTO can improve function, reduce pain, and delay the need for knee replacement surgery.
Cartilage restoration
At SportsOrtho, arthroscopy enables precise cartilage repair in joints such as the knee, shoulder, and ankle.
Techniques like microfracture, autologous chondrocyte implantation, and osteochondral grafting help restore the joint’s smooth surface, reducing pain and lowering the risk of arthritis.
This approach is especially valuable for athletes who rely heavily on joint strength and mobility.
Cartilage restoration procedures aim to regenerate the articular surface, improving joint function and durability. By treating cartilage damage early, arthroscopy can postpone or even eliminate the need for more invasive surgeries like joint replacement down the line.
