Joint Replacement Surgery and Joint revision(Knee, Hip) using 3D Modeling Technique
Our team of Orthopedic surgeons at HMS Al Garhoud Hospital is highly skilled and specialized in providing orthopedic care to patients requiring joint replacement or “Arthroplasty”, utilizing the latest advances in medical technology. Our surgeons are committed to raising the standards of care for joint replacement surgery ensuring that our patients return to their full and active lifestyle.
The number of joint-replacement surgeries performed each year continues to rise due to the wear and tear “over-use” of our joints. Some may think that the pain will just go overnight and will just get better on its own with time. Delaying care can sometimes cause additional damage to your joints and may result in limited movement due to severe pain. If you are experiencing persistent pain, you should see a specialist who will help you and consider the treatment options that would be best for you.
Joint replacement is a surgery where a diseased or injured joint is replaced with a new or artificial joint (either metal, plastic prosthetics, or ceramic mixtures). Seeing the best outcome of your joint replacement is the expertise of Dr. Feras Haidar, a Specialist Orthopedic Surgeon. With more than 18 years of experience in Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery, his care before and after surgery follows high standards of quality.

Latest Technology and Surgical Approach:
Should you be a candidate for joint replacement, Dr. Feras will ensure that you understand the treatment procedure and will carefully explain everything you need to know. Some information that will be helpful during your Consultation.
- Using a 3D modeling technique for joint replacement surgery provides a more detailed picture of the joint prior to surgery and identifies areas of the bone and cartilage clearly.
- Minimally invasive joint replacement using an arthroscopic approach, a technique where a small incision replaces your joint. Using only a tiny camera inserted into the area creates a high–definition image of the joint on a screen.
- Revision joint replacement or “repeat joint replacement” may be recommended to replace the original prosthesis with a new one. In some cases, full or parts of your implanted joint may be replaced because some of your original implants may still be in good condition.
To improve your well-being and know more about your condition our Orthopedic Surgeon will discuss to you further any specific concerns you may have. Our team of medical experts is dedicated to providing you with the best care for your joint condition.
