Despite lingering pain or orthopedic issues, many people prefer not to undergo major surgery. For these patients, Mercy Orthopedics offers numerous minimally invasive surgeries and procedures that offer pain relief, while allowing the patient to avoid an intimidating major surgery.
Current minimally invasive procedures at Mercy Orthopedics Sacramento:
Hip scope or hip arthroscopy is an option for patients suffering from hip pains and problems. Extremely helpful in diagnosing hip conditions, this procedure uses a tube with a small camera to give doctors an up-close view of your hip bones and joint.
This kind of arthroscopic surgery is also available for other areas of the body, including shoulders.
At Mercy Orthopedics of Sacramento, MAKOplasty® is a minimally invasive surgery often used to relieve pain caused by knee joint degeneration. A knee resurfacing treatment, MAKOplasty® allows for a more rapid recovery than traditional knee surgery.
Surgical navigation systems and computer mapping are also used to minimize surgery needs. Allowing doctors to view, analyze and plan your procedure, surgical navigation systems can make your surgery go more smoothly.
At Mercy Orthopedics Sacramento, MAKOplasty®, arthroscopic surgery, hip scope and surgical navigation are just a few of the minimally invasive procedures offered. Call (916) 851-2110 to schedule a consultation today or request an appointment online. |
