Expertise in Complex Reconstruction
Complex bone and joint reconstruction involves the surgical restoration of skeletal structures that have been severely compromised by massive trauma, neglected fractures, aggressive infections, failed previous surgeries, or tumor resections.
Dr. Jyoti Prakash is a leading authority in salvaging limbs and joints that other surgeons might consider inoperable. He utilizes state-of-the-art biological and mechanical solutions to bridge massive bone gaps, eradicate deep-seated infections, and restore joint mechanics.
Conditions Requiring Reconstruction
- Massive bone loss from high-velocity trauma or crushing injuries.
- Infected non-unions (broken bones that fail to heal due to infection).
- Failed or loose joint replacements requiring complex revision arthroplasty.
- Post-tumor resection defects.
- Severe congenital deformities requiring limb lengthening and realignment.
Advanced Techniques Utilized
To achieve successful reconstruction, Dr. Prakash employs a variety of sophisticated techniques. Ilizarov and Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) external fixators are used for bone transport, gradually growing new bone to replace missing segments.
For massive joint defects, custom 3D-printed implants, trabecular metal augments, and structural allografts are utilized to rebuild the joint foundation, ensuring long-term stability and pain relief.
