Advanced Procedures
The latest approaches to surgery and the most current orthopedic implants are available at Emerson Hospital.
- Mini-incision hip replacement surgery: This modified hip replacement is associated with less pain, a quicker recovery and superior cosmetic results.
- Minimally invasive shoulder surgery: Long incisions and long rehabilitations have been replaced by surgery that is much easier on patients.
- Ceramic-on-ceramic hip implants: Many believe that these new implants, which are available at Emerson, last longer than metal components.
- Knee replacement options: These include partial or uni-compartmental replacements and replacements with rotating platforms, which offer a greater degree of movement and less wear on the joint.
