ORIF Fracture Fixation Surgery Pune
Sancheti Hospital provides open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) surgery for complex fractures with precision and care.
What is ORIF Surgery?
ORIF surgery (Open Reduction and Internal Fixation) is a specialized orthopaedic procedure used to treat complex bone fractures that cannot heal properly with casting or splinting. In this procedure, the surgeon first repositions the broken bone fragments into their normal alignment (open reduction) and then secures them using metal plates, screws, or rods (internal fixation).
At Sancheti Hospital, our expert trauma and orthopaedic surgeons perform ORIF for a wide range of fractures involving the hip, ankle, wrist, elbow, shoulder, and knee. This ensures that patients regain strength, stability, and function in the affected joint.
Types of ORIF Surgeries Performed
- ORIF Ankle Surgery – For severe ankle fractures causing instability.
- ORIF Knee Surgery – For fractures around the knee joint or femur.
- ORIF Elbow Surgery – For complex elbow fractures that affect joint movement.
- ORIF Shoulder Surgery – For proximal humerus or shoulder joint fractures.
- ORIF Hip Surgery – For fractures of the hip or pelvis requiring strong fixation.
Benefits of ORIF Surgery
- Restores proper bone alignment and stability
- Allows early mobilization of the affected limb
- Reduces long-term complications like stiffness or deformity
- Provides better functional outcomes compared to conservative methods
- Enables patients to return to daily activities faster
Limitations or Disadvantages
While ORIF is highly effective, certain limitations include:
- Need for a surgical procedure under anesthesia
- Risk of infection or implant-related complications (though rare at Sancheti)
- Longer healing time for severe fractures
- Occasional need for implant removal if discomfort arises
