Slipped Disc and Sciatica pain are common problems

 Slipped Disc and Sciatica pain are common problems sometimes requiring surgery for curing it. Nowadays we perform UBE Endoscopic Discectomy, which is performed by minimally invasive technique. Gone are the days of 3 cm long incisions. In our Max Superspeciality Hospital, Sector 128, Noida, DELHI NCR, we do Endoscopic Discectomy with our newly acquired UBE system of BONNS, using just two puncture holes. It is a day care or 1 day procedure and patient is relieved and discharged walking happily 8-12 hours after surgery. We can give the best services with the latest technology to the community, at par with Europe , US and Korea. It is great teamwork. Big Thanks to my Assistant Surgeon Dr Naman Kandpal. Big thanks to the Anaesthesia team of Dr Gagan Srivastava, Dr Shalini, Dr Pooja, Dr Shameem , Dr Sowmya and Dr Shekhar , Sister Memcha, Vimal and Aarti, OT Technicians including Niralaji and Pradeepji - Dr V A Senthil Kumar, Director of Orthopedics and Spine Surgery, Max Superspeciality Hospital, Sector 128, Noida, Delhi NCR

Dorsolumbar Spine Fixation and Decompression Surgery by Computer Navigation

 Our Team performed Dorsolumbar Spine Fixation and Decompression Surgery by Computer Navigation for the FIRST TIME in our Hospital on 25th November 2025, with the recently acquired Medtroniks Stealth Station.This was done for a 54 year old Gentleman with cord compression and paraparesis and severe radicular pain and severe back pain.

OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA) OF KNEES

It is very common to see Elderly people( Senior Citizens),suffering from Knee joint pains and difficulty in walking.Especially women are much more affected than men,almost 70% are women. This is due to OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA) of the KNEES , which very often affects both Knees after the age of 60 years. OA is a progressive disease. Eary stages of OA Knees can be treated by medications, lifestyle modification, weight reduction, physiotherapy and exercises and disease progression can be slowed. But advanced OA ( Osteoarthritis) of Knees needs Surgical treatment called Total Knee Replacement (TKR) or TKA ( Total Knee Arthroplasty), which can be life-changing procedure. In this, the damaged cartilage of the Knee Joint is removed and the Knee Joint is resurfaced with Artificial Implants using advanced Technology. It is quite safe and well -established procedure, being done all over the World. The pictures and Videos show the real transformation patient feels within 6 weeks of Both Knees TKR Surgery.
