 Pertains to Orthopaedic Surgery procedures performed through a minimally invasive approach. For example, Robert A. Kayal, MD performs medial, lateral and patellafemoral knee joint replacement surgery without cutting through any tendons or muscle. In addition, Dr. Kayal performs many other types of minimally invasive orthopaedic procedures such as rotator cuff repair, ACL reconstruction, meniscal and labral repairs all arthroscopically through tiny incisions, without having to make any of the traditional open incisions.
For patients, minimally invasive surgery means less trauma to
the body, less blood loss, smaller surgical scars and decreased
need of pain medication. Patients who undergo minimally invasive
surgery experience less postoperative pain, shorter hospital
stays, early return to work and normal daily activities and less
post operative scarring.
