Walk Easier with Minimally Invasive Knee Correction
Are you struggling with knee pain, stiffness, or deformity that limits your ability to walk, bend, or perform daily activities? Knee problems caused by injury, arthritis, or congenital deformities can significantly affect your quality of life. Fortunately, minimally invasive knee correction surgery offers a safe and effective way to restore knee function, without the long recovery time of traditional open surgery.
With Dr. Sumit Karak’s expertise in advanced Orthopaedic procedures, patients benefit from personalized care, smaller incisions, and faster recovery.
What is Minimally Invasive Knee Correction?
Minimally invasive knee correction involves small-incision techniques to treat structural or alignment issues in the knee joint. Unlike traditional open surgery, which requires a large incision and significant muscle disruption, minimally invasive approaches use specialized instruments and cameras to perform precise corrections through much smaller cuts.
This technique is used for:
- Realignment of bowed or knocked knees (osteotomy)
- Cartilage repair and resurfacing
- Ligament reconstruction (ACL/PCL)
- Treatment of early-stage arthritis
- Correction of minor deformities and joint imbalances
Who Can Benefit from Knee Correction Surgery?
Minimally invasive knee correction is ideal for patients who:
- Suffer from chronic knee pain due to alignment issues
- Have a visible knee deformity (inward or outward bending)
- Experience frequent swelling, instability, or limited motion
- Are too young or not yet ready for a full knee replacement
- Have sports-related ligament or cartilage injuries
If left untreated, structural issues in the knee can lead to progressive arthritis and joint damage. Early correction can prevent long-term disability and improve quality of life.
Types of Minimally Invasive Knee Procedures
1. Knee Osteotomy
This procedure is used to realign the knee joint, especially in younger patients with early arthritis affecting one side of the knee. It helps distribute body weight more evenly and delays the need for knee replacement.
2. Arthroscopic Ligament Reconstruction
Torn ligaments like the ACL or PCL can be reconstructed using a camera-assisted approach. This minimally invasive surgery restores knee stability with minimal tissue damage.
3. Cartilage Repair/Regeneration
In early joint degeneration or after injury, minimally invasive techniques are used to repair or regenerate cartilage, reducing pain and improving function.
4. Synovectomy or Debridement
For patients with inflamed joint lining (synovitis) or loose bodies in the knee, small incisions are used to clean the joint and relieve discomfort.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Knee Surgery
Minimally invasive techniques are increasingly preferred because they offer:
- Smaller incisions and minimal scarring
- Less muscle damage, leading to reduced pain
- Faster recovery and return to activity
- Lower risk of complications and infections
- Improved cosmetic results
Patients often begin walking with support the very next day and can resume light activities within a few weeks, depending on the procedure and individual health.
