FAQs

Q: What are the most common orthopaedic conditions in people under 50 that may need surgical intervention?
In younger adults, surgery is most frequently required for sports-related injuries like ACL or meniscus tears and recurrent shoulder dislocations. Other common needs include the surgical fixation of high-impact fractures and the management of early-onset degenerative conditions like avascular necrosis.
Q: How do doctors decide between physiotherapy, injections, or surgery for knee pain?
The decision is based on the severity of structural damage and how much the pain interferes with daily life. Specialists typically start with physiotherapy or injections for early-stage inflammation, reserving surgery only for cases where ligaments are torn or the joint surface is severely worn.
Q: What is partial knee replacement and who is an ideal candidate for it?
A partial knee replacement involves resurfacing only the specific compartment of the knee that is damaged, leaving healthy bone and ligaments intact. The ideal candidate is a patient with localized arthritis in just one part of the knee who still has strong, stable supporting ligaments.
Q: What is sports injury arthroscopy and when is it preferable to open joint surgery?
This is a minimally invasive technique where a small camera and specialized tools are used to repair joint damage through tiny keyhole incisions. It is preferred for most sports injuries because it causes significantly less muscle trauma, results in less scarring, and allows for a much faster return to athletic activities.
Q: Can fractures from accidents or falls always be treated without surgery?
While simple, stable fractures can often be managed with a cast, complex or displaced fractures usually require surgical intervention. Surgery using plates, screws, or rods ensures the bones are perfectly aligned and stabilized so they can heal correctly without future deformity.
Q: What orthopaedic and joint replacement surgeries does Dr. Deepankar Mishra performing at Apollo Hospitals Lucknow?
Dr. Deepankar Mishra specializes in total knee and hip replacements, as well as complex revision joint surgeries. He also performs advanced arthroscopic procedures for sports injuries and surgical fixations for complex traumatic fractures and bone injuries.
Q: How does Dr. Deepankar Mishra approaches knee pain management in younger and middle-aged patients?
His approach focuses on joint preservation, utilizing non-surgical therapies and minimally invasive arthroscopy to delay the need for a full replacement. For younger patients with localized damage, he may recommend biological treatments or partial resurfacing to maintain the natural mechanics of the knee.
Q: Can Dr. Deepankar Mishra treat fractures and traumatic bone injuries?
Yes, he is highly experienced in trauma orthopaedics and the surgical management of complex bone injuries resulting from accidents. He utilizes advanced fixation techniques to stabilize fractures, ensuring patients regain mobility and structural integrity as quickly as possible.
Q: What orthopaedic conditions does Dr. Deepankar Mishra treat?
Dr. Mishra treats a wide spectrum of conditions including advanced osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and various sports-related injuries like ligament and tendon tears. He also manages age-related degenerative bone diseases, chronic joint pain, and acute musculoskeletal trauma.
