Orthopedic Center and Spine Center

Bangkok Hospital

• Sports Medicine certified by FIFA

  • Foot and Ankle:A holistic care of all traumatic injuries at foot and ankle ranging from aching tendons, hallux valgus, ganglioneuroma, heel pain, plantar fasciitis, calcaneal spurs, or foot bone fractures, and including skin and soft tissue problems.
  • Hand, Wrist, Arm, Elbow and Shoulder: Services cover all conditions with both acute and chronic pain e.g. dropped shoulders, rotator cuff tear, swelling, and inflammation of the shoulder joints, bone fractures, and arthritis.
  • Hip and Knee: Supported by cutting-edge technology, our Hip and Knee Surgery has been internationally certified by JCI. Our current operative techniques are considered “minimally invasive surgeries”. These procedures promise less pain, fewer complications with faster recovery resulting in a better quality of life.
  • Fractures: Our multidisciplinary team provides treatments for all types of bone fractures, such as open (or compound fracture), transverse fracture, oblique fracture, comminuted fracture, and complex fractures.
  • Pediatric orthopedics:With a multidisciplinary team, we provide musculoskeletal care to children, paying particular attention to emotional and social conditions. Treatments cover spinal deformities, arm bone problems, abnormally short legs, clubfoot muscular, and nervous ailments as well as other bone and muscle diseases found in children.
  • Osteoporosis:A specialized orthopedic team is ready to diagnose and treat those at risks for osteoporosis which may have different causes such as degenerative bones in the elderly, a long-term use of steroid drugs and hormonal insufficiency (estrogen) in post menopause women.
  • Bone and soft tissue cancer:A holistic care for bone and soft tissue cancer will be provided by a multidisciplinary team specialized in oncology from Bangkok Cancer Hospital.

KEY SERVICES & TREATMENTS

ORTHOPEDIC CENTER : Service Highlights

Customized Service with Advanced Caring and Technology :

  • International standard of “hip and knee surgery” certified by JCI (Joint Commission International) from USA.
  • Customized services are delivered during pre- and post-surgery as well as the recovery period. The individualized treatments are holistically planned for each patient by using a digital template for surgical planning and patient customized instrument.
  • Highly experienced orthopedic surgeons supported by multidisciplinary team specialized in orthopedic care.
  • Holistic Joint Care covers prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. Since the early care begins at the early stages of orthopedic diseases, thus disease severity is subsequently reduced. All advanced technology and treatments are readily available such as arthroscopic surgery, direct anterior approach total hip replacement, Minimal Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO), and Alter-G (anti-gravity treadmill for restoring muscle strength and range of motion after surgery.
  • ARTIS pheno: Robotic-Assisted Orthopedic Surgery: A robot-supported C-arm angiography system which is developed for use in minimally invasive surgery (MIS). With 3D images, this computer-based technology is applied pre-, intra- and post-operatively to improve the outcome of orthopedic surgical procedures with high degree of precision and safety.
  • Advanced Prosthesis: The most appropriate prosthetic will be always chosen to individual patients based on their special conditions and related requirements. To select proper prosthesis, factors involved are life span, material and special features.

SPINE CENTER : Scope of Services

To treat all spine conditions, our comprehensive spine care covers diagnosis by using cutting-edge radio-diagnostic tools, treatment, and rehabilitation. Spine treatment approaches comprise of both non-surgical treatments (medication, interventional spine and pain management and rehabilitation) and surgical treatments including conventional surgery and minimally invasive spine surgery such as microscopic discectomy, endoscopic discectomy and spine fusion surgery. In addition, our rehabilitation care enables patients to get a complete recovery after receiving treatments, resulting in improved quality of life and reduced risks of recurrence.  All patients can rest assured that their problems will be solved effectively and safely with holistic spine care.

SPINE Center : Service Highlights

Service Highlights
  • Low Back Pain Program certified by JCI (Joint Commission International)
  • Highly skilled spine surgeons and multidisciplinary team supported by diagnostic technology which allows accurate results such as Biplane X-Ray with high resolution images.
  • Advancements in surgical treatment that enhance efficacy and safety such as O-Arm Surgical Imaging System and Stealth Navigation System which can provide enhanced 3D visibility and surgical feedback. Additionally, it provides current patient data in the operation room covering additional information in challenging procedures. To improve safety and surgical effectiveness, the O-ARM navigation system allows surgeons to have 3D real time imaging worked together with an intraoperative neuro-monitoring (IOM) system which is a key technology to provide additional safety information and help maintaining nerve integrity and neural pathways. It is used to prevent possible neurological damages to surrounding nerves and tissues during surgery.
  • Interventional Spine and Pain Management includes selective nerve root block using X-ray and ultrasound as image guidance, genicular nerve block and radiofrequency ablation as well as vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty and stentoplasty which are relatively new non-invasive techniques for the treatment of pain caused by vertebral body compression fractures.
  • All surgical techniques are available to provide to best possible outcomes for each patient. Examples of new surgical approach for spine disorders are:
  • ALIF (Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion)
  • DLIF (Direct Lateral Interbody Fusion)
  • OLIF (Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion)
  • TLIF (Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion)
  • PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion)
Among several techniques to treat spine conditions, the appropriate approach will be selected based on disease severity, patient’s conditions, and preferences. Surgery could be performed by either open technique or minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) which greatly reduces pain with smaller incisions and fewer post-operative complications, resulting in a faster recovery time and quick return to daily life.
