Core Orthopaedic Sub-Specialties & Clinical Services
1. Joint Replacement & Reconstructive Surgery (Arthroplasty)
Severe articular cartilage degradation resulting from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic joint degeneration requires specialized surgical reconstruction to restore joint mechanics and alleviate intractable pain.
- Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA): Precision realignment and resurfacing using biocompatible prosthetic components engineered for natural kinematically aligned motion.
- Partial / Unicompartmental Knee Replacement: Targeted resurfacing restricted strictly to damaged joint compartments, preserving healthy bone mass and natural cruciate ligaments.
- Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA): Complete joint reconstruction utilizing durable ceramic-on-polyethylene or metallic bearing surfaces for avascular necrosis (AVN) and advanced coxarthrosis.
- Revision Joint Arthroplasty: Specialized surgical intervention for primary implant wear, aseptic loosening, or periprosthetic joint infections.
2. Orthopaedic Trauma, Complex Fractures & Polytrauma Care
Accidents, industrial injuries, and high-impact falls necessitate immediate clinical evaluation and rigid internal or external fixation to restore structural bone continuity.
- Orthopaedic Trauma and Fracture Care: Emergency stabilization, open reduction, and internal fixation (ORIF) utilizing intramedullary nails, dynamic compression plates, and anatomical locking screws.
- Polytrauma Emergency Response: Integrated critical care protocols for multi-fragmentary fractures, pelvic ring disruptions, and compound open fractures.
- Malunion and Nonunion Reconstruction: Advanced surgical realignments, bone grafting, and corrective osteotomies for improperly healed or unhealed bone structures.
3. Sports Medicine & Arthroscopic Surgery
Athletic injuries and high-energy soft tissue dislocations require precise, low-morbidity surgical techniques to repair torn ligaments, tendons, and articular cartilage structures.
- Arthroscopic Knee Reconstruction: Minimally invasive reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), and meniscal repairs or meniscectomy.
- Arthroscopic Shoulder Procedures: Surgical repairs for rotator cuff tendon tears, Bankart lesions, multidirectional shoulder instability, and subacromial decompression.
- Tendon and Ligament Repair: Surgical management of Achilles tendon ruptures, patellar tendon tears, and chronic ankle instability.
4. Spine Health & Back Pain Management
Spinal pathologies, ranging from intervertebral disc herniation to lumbar spinal stenosis, require a conservative-first approach followed by precise micro-surgical decompression when neurological deficits persist.
- Spine Health and Back Pain Management: Structured conservative care incorporating targeted lumbar epidural steroid injections, selective nerve root blocks, and core stability therapy.
- Microdiscectomy & Lumbar Decompression: Surgical excision of herniated intervertebral disc material compressing spinal nerves to relieve radiculopathy (sciatica).
- Spinal Trauma & Fusion: Stabilization of vertebral fractures, spondylolisthesis, and spinal column instability using pedicle screw construct fixations.
5. Ortho & Inflammatory Joint Care
Systemic autoimmune conditions affecting the synovial membranes demand advanced pharmacological disease control alongside structural orthopaedic monitoring.
- Ortho Consultations: Differential diagnosis and long-term management of autoimmune disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, and crystalline arthropathies (gout).
- Disease-Modifying Pharmacotherapy: Tailored administration of conventional and biologic DMARDs (Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs) to halt progressive articular degradation.
- Arthritis and Joint Inflammation Treatment: Intra-articular corticosteroid and viscosupplementation injections to manage localized synovial inflammation and pain.
6. Pediatric Bone Health & Deformity Correction
Pediatric skeletal structures possess active physeal growth plates, requiring specialized pediatric surgical techniques to correct congenital and acquired musculoskeletal deformities.
- Pediatric Bone Health and Deformity Correction: Comprehensive management of congenital talipes equinovarus (clubfoot via the Ponseti method), developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), genu varum (bow legs), and genu valgum (knock knees).
- Physeal / Growth Plate Injury Management: Specialized surgical realignment and fixation of pediatric fractures to ensure unhindered long-term limb development.
Surgical & Clinical Treatment Benefits
When undergoing minimally invasive joint surgery or advanced trauma repair at Sayee Speciality Hospital, patients benefit from:
- Minimal Incisions & Soft Tissue Preservation: Reduced operative trauma, leading to lower post-operative discomfort and minimal scar tissue formation.
- Accelerated Mobilization Protocols: Early ambulation physical therapy within 24 – 48 hours post-surgery to minimize deep vein thrombosis (DVT) risks.
- Precision Anatomical Alignment: Utilization of high-grade surgical guidance systems for accurate implant position and extended prosthesis longevity.
- Reduced Length of Hospitalization: Streamlined surgical and nursing care pathways enabling faster home discharge.
Physical Rehabilitation & Post-Operative Care
Surgical precision is paired with comprehensive functional rehabilitation to achieve optimal long-term clinical outcomes. Our sports rehabilitation and physical therapy division works alongside our surgical team from day one of recovery.
- Inpatient Physical Therapy: Immediate post-operative gait training, joint range of motion (ROM) exercises, and isometric muscle strengthening.
- Outpatient Rehabilitation: Progressive conditioning protocols tailored for sports injury recovery, total joint replacement rehabilitation, and chronic spinal care.
- Long-Term Follow-up & Monitoring: Structured clinical check-ups incorporating serial digital radiography to evaluate bone healing, implant stability, and joint articulation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Orthopaedic Care
Yes. Unless an acute fracture, progressive neurological impairment, or severe structural compromise requires immediate intervention, our clinical teams prioritize conservative management. This includes targeted pharmacotherapy, physical therapy, weight management strategies, and intra-articular injections. Surgery is advised only when conservative protocols fail to maintain adequate function or pain control.
Patients typically begin bed-to-chair transfers and assisted ambulation within 24 to 48 hours post-surgery under physical therapy supervision. Independent mobility with assistive devices is generally achieved within 2 to 3 weeks, while full functional recovery and return to routine non-strenuous daily activities occur within 6 to 8 weeks.
Immobilize the affected anatomical region immediately using a rigid support or splint, apply cold packs wrapped in a cloth to control soft tissue swelling, elevate the extremity if feasible, and avoid administering food or water in preparation for potential surgical anesthesia. Transport the patient immediately to our 24/7 trauma care department in South Chennai.
Yes. Sayee Speciality Hospital is empanelled with leading health insurance providers and Third-Party Administrators (TPAs). Our dedicated insurance desk assists patients with pre-authorization and cashless hospitalization approvals for planned orthopaedic procedures as well as emergency trauma care admissions.
