Arathana Hospital, Pollachi -

At Arathana Hospital, we are dedicated to providing exceptional knee preservation services to help patients maintain their mobility and quality of life.

Knee Arthroscopy

Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat knee joint issues. With the use of a small camera (arthroscope), our orthopedic surgeons can view the inside of the knee and perform repairs on damaged cartilage, meniscus, or ligaments without making large incisions. This results in shorter recovery times, less pain, and a quicker return to normal activities.
Varus Osteotomy for Valgus Deformity Correction

What is Varus Osteotomy?
Varus osteotomy is a surgical procedure performed to correct valgus deformity (knock-knee), where the knees angle inward, putting excess stress on the lateral (outer) part of the knee joint. This procedure realigns the leg to restore normal biomechanics, reduce pain, and prevent further joint damage.

Who Needs This Surgery?
You may benefit from varus osteotomy if you have:
✅ Severe knock-knee deformity affecting mobility
✅ Knee pain due to uneven weight distribution
✅ Early-stage osteoarthritis in the outer knee compartment
✅ Deformity from injury or congenital conditions

Benefits of Varus Osteotomy
Improved knee alignment and function
Pain relief and better mobility
Prevention of further joint degeneration
Delays or avoids the need for knee replacement

High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO)
A Joint-Preserving Solution for Knee Arthritis & Misalignment

What is High Tibial Osteotomy?
High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO) is a surgical procedure designed to correct knee alignment and relieve pain caused by medial compartment arthritis or knee malalignment (such as bow-legged deformity). By redistributing the weight-bearing load, this procedure helps slow joint deterioration and improves knee function.

Who Can Benefit from HTO?

HTO is recommended for:
✅ Active individuals with early-stage knee osteoarthritis
✅ Patients with varus deformity (bow-legged alignment)
✅ Younger patients who wish to delay total knee replacement
✅ Those experiencing pain and instability in one side of the knee

Benefits of High Tibial Osteotomy
Pain relief and improved knee function
Preserves the natural knee joint
Delays or prevents total knee replacement
Allows for continued participation in sports and daily activities
