Case: Recursive dislocation what is the cure procedure and estimated procedure cost
Dear Nihal,
Recurrent dislocation occurs when a joint (commonly the shoulder or knee) repeatedly slips out of place due to weakened ligaments, previous injury, or structural abnormalities.
Treatment Plan
- Initial Management:
-
Rest and immobilization (brace/sling)
-
Physical therapy to strengthen muscles and improve stability
-
Lifestyle modifications to avoid high-risk activities
2. Surgical Intervention (if required):
-
Arthroscopic Stabilization (Minimally Invasive): Tightens ligaments and repairs any damage.
-
Open Surgery (Capsular Shift/Latarjet Procedure): Recommended for severe cases with bone loss or instability.
Advantages of Arthroscopy
- Minimally invasive: Small incisions, less scarring
- Faster recovery: Reduced hospital stay and quicker return to daily activities
- Less pain and complications: Compared to open surgery
- Precise repair: Direct visualization for accurate ligament tightening
Precautions
- Avoid excessive strain on the affected joint.
- Get physiotherapy as advised.
- Use supportive braces if needed.
- Maintain a healthy weight to reduce joint stress.
Estimated Cost
- Surgical Procedure (Arthroscopy/Open Surgery): Starts from 80000/- and depends on the hospital and doctor chosen, the treatment technique, the financing options if available etc.
