Functional restoration for Nerve injuries
Injuries to the nerves of the hand can be quite devastating with functional loss and progressive stiffness. Patients presenting early can still be treated with primary nerve repair or nerve grafting. However, delayed cases require tendon transfers to restore useful hand function. This requires meticulous planning, awareness of the patient’s needs and sound operative technique along with sincere postoperative follow-up and care
Finger & Hand injuries
Soft tissue injuries involving the fingers and hand are commonly caused by household or workplace accidents. Timely, adequate intervention can restore all hand functions
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Commonest cause of hand pain at night. It is due to compression of the median nerve at the wrist. Pain is especially common at night and after repetitive actions. Affected persons may experience clumsiness. Rest, weight reduction and wrist splints are first line treatment. More permanent results are obtained from surgical decompression of the nerve.
Hand fractures
Hand fractures involve the small bones of the hand and can be very painful and debilitating. A number of options exist for their treatment and can be tailored to best suit the patient
Hand tumors
Tumors of the hand, though uncommon, require specialized knowledge of hand anatomy in order to remove the tumor while preserving the delicate but important neurovascular structures
Tendon surgery
Tendons are vital for finger and hand function. They are responsible for finger movements. Immediate repair can restore them back to normal. Otherwise, they must be reconstructed using tissue from other parts of the body
