Fracture & Trauma Surgery

Fractures, dislocations, pelvic and acetabular injuries, malunion and nonunion correction after an earlier fracture.

When this is considered

  • ◆Fracture after a fall or road accident
  • ◆A fracture that has not united, or has united in a bent position
  • ◆Hip fracture in an elderly parent
  • ◆An old injury that now causes pain or deformity

Having one of these does not mean you need surgery. It means the problem is worth examining properly.

How it is approached

1Emergency first

An open fracture, a dislocated joint, loss of pulse or sensation, or inability to bear weight after a fall needs the nearest emergency department immediately — not a scheduled appointment.

2Fix it once, fix it correctly

Fixation is planned so that alignment, rotation and length are restored, because a poorly fixed fracture is far harder to correct later.

3Nonunion and malunion

A fracture that has not healed is assessed for infection, blood supply and stability before deciding between bone grafting, revision fixation or corrective osteotomy.

4Early movement

Wherever fixation is stable enough, joints are moved early to prevent the stiffness that follows prolonged immobilisation.

Typical recovery

Varies widely
Recovery depends on which bone, the fracture pattern and your age — your surgeon will give you a specific timeline.
Week 2
Wound review and suture removal.
Week 6
X-ray to check healing; weight-bearing usually progressed.
Month 3–6
Most fractures united; strengthening continues.

Timelines are typical, not promised. Yours depends on your age, general health and how the surgery goes.

Common questions

+My father aged 80 has a hip fracture. Is surgery safe at his age?

In most cases, surgery followed by early mobilisation is safer than weeks in bed, which carries risks of chest infection, bed sores and clots. A physician assesses fitness first.

+The plate from my old surgery hurts. Should it be removed?

Implant removal is considered once the fracture has fully united and only when the implant itself is causing symptoms. It is a separate, planned procedure.

Other treatments

🦿
Robotic / Navigation Knee Replacement
Total, partial and custom knee replacement planned with computer navigation or robotic assistance, so the implant is aligned to your own anatomy.
🔁
Complex & Revision Knee Replacement
Re-doing a knee replacement that has loosened, become infected, become unstable or was not aligned correctly. This is among Dr Reddy's core areas of work.
🦴
Hip Replacement — Primary & Revision
Total hip replacement for arthritis, avascular necrosis (AVN) and fracture of the neck of femur, including revision of a previously replaced hip.
