Mini Incisions and Cruciate Retaining Total Knee Replacement (TKR) at GMC Ortho Hospital
Welcome to GMC Ortho Hospital’s advanced orthopedic procedures, including Mini Incisions and Cruciate Retaining Total Knee Replacement (TKR). Our commitment to innovative techniques and patient-centered care ensures that you receive the best possible treatment for knee conditions.
Mini Incisions for Optimal Recovery
What are Mini Incisions? Mini incisions, also known as minimally invasive incisions, are small cuts made during surgical procedures to minimize tissue disruption. These incisions offer several benefits, including reduced scarring, less postoperative pain, and faster recovery times compared to larger incisions.
Advantages of Mini Incisions:
- Smaller scars and improved cosmetic outcomes
- Reduced risk of infection and complications
- Less tissue disruption for quicker healing
- Faster return to daily activities
Cruciate Retaining Total Knee Replacement (TKR)
What is Cruciate Retaining TKR? Cruciate Retaining Total Knee Replacement (TKR) is an advanced surgical procedure aimed at restoring knee function and alleviating pain caused by severe knee arthritis. Unlike some other TKR techniques, the cruciate retaining approach preserves the patient’s natural anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).
How Cruciate Retaining TKR Works:
- The damaged surfaces of the knee joint are carefully removed.
- The implant components, including a metal femoral component and a polyethylene tibial component, are securely placed.
- The patient’s natural ACL is preserved, providing stability and a more natural feeling in the knee.
Advantages of Cruciate Retaining TKR:
- Preserves the ACL, potentially leading to a more natural range of motion
- Improved proprioception and joint stability
- Enhanced patient satisfaction due to a more natural feeling knee
- Potential for quicker postoperative recovery

Full Endoscopic Ligament Surgery employs advanced endoscopic technology to repair ligaments with unparalleled accuracy. Through tiny incisions, our orthopedic surgeons navigate specialized instruments to restore ligament integrity, resulting in improved joint stability and function.
- FULL ENDOSCOPIC MENISCAL REPAIR

Through the endoscope’s lens, our surgeons meticulously repair meniscal tears, preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. This technique not only promotes quicker healing but also reduces the risk of postoperative complications.
Precision through Endoscopy
