Learn More βKey Procedures β In Detail
Advanced orthopaedic procedures performed by Dr. Gupta at Apollomedics Super Speciality Hospital, Lucknow.
Total Knee Replacement (TKR)
For Mumbai patients living with severe knee arthritis β bone-on-bone pain, deformity, or inability to walk without support β Total Knee Replacement offers lasting relief. Dr. Gupta uses a multimodal painless protocol that eliminates opioid dependence. Most patients walk on the operated knee within 6 hours of surgery and are discharged within 2 days.
Partial / Oxford Knee Replacement
For younger and more active patients with arthritis confined to one compartment of the knee, a partial (unicompartmental) replacement preserves healthy bone and ligament tissue. Faster recovery, more natural feel, and a smaller incision than total replacement.
ACL Reconstruction
For athletes and active individuals in Mumbai who have suffered a complete or partial ACL tear β from cricket, football, badminton, gym, or road accidents β Dr. Gupta performs arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using hamstring or patellar tendon grafts. The structured return-to-sport protocol gets patients back to full activity in 6β8 months.
Meniscus Repair & Meniscectomy
A torn meniscus is one of the most common sports injuries in Mumbai's active population. Dr. Gupta prioritises tissue-preserving repair over removal β protecting long-term joint health and reducing the risk of future arthritis.
Cartilage Restoration
Cartilage damage β from sports, injury, or early arthritis β does not always require joint replacement. Dr. Gupta offers microfracture, OATS (Osteochondral Autograft Transfer System), and ACI (Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation) to restore damaged cartilage and delay or avoid replacement surgery.
Shoulder Surgery β Instability & Rotator Cuff
For patients with shoulder dislocations, rotator cuff tears, SLAP lesions, or AC joint injuries, Dr. Gupta performs arthroscopic Bankart repair, remplissage, and rotator cuff reconstruction. All procedures are done under keyhole technique for faster recovery.
High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO)
HTO is a joint-preserving surgery designed for younger patients (typically under 55) with early-stage arthritis and malalignment. By correcting the angle of the leg, Dr. Gupta can shift load away from the damaged compartment β delaying or avoiding knee replacement entirely.
Revision Knee Replacement
For patients who have previously had knee replacement surgery and are experiencing pain, loosening, infection, or implant failure, Dr. Gupta specialises in complex revision surgery β restoring function and stability with advanced implant systems.
Stem Cell Therapy & PRP / GFC Injections
For patients with early joint damage, cartilage wear, or sports injuries who are not yet candidates for surgery, regenerative options including Stem Cell Therapy, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), and GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) injections can reduce inflammation, promote healing, and slow joint deterioration.
