National Workshop on Recent Trends in Arthroscopic
Management of Knee Ligament Injuries at Aware Global
Hyderabad: It has been observed that knee ligament injuries in the young
working population across the country including earning members of family
and even women are increasing at an alarming rate.
In the last decade, multiple ligament injuries have become very common. As
the people involved in sports activities including police and CRPF, military
personal are increasingly getting injured. Also, school and college students
who are into sports, fall from two wheelers and road traffic accidents have
added to the number of those having multiple ligament injuries. This has
become a cause of concern.
In order to provide the best of treatment for such injuries, Aware Global
Hospitals, L.B. Nagar, Hyderabad, is organizing a “National Workshop”
with eminent faculty from all over India who are experts to evolve a
consensual approach in the treatment of these disabling injuries.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Vijay Vemuri, Chief Operating Officer,
Aware Global Hospitals said, “We at Global Hospitals have been at the
forefront of clinical care, research and training young doctors always. This
workshop is an attempt in this direction. So the issues that would be
discussed at the workshop would include recent scientific trends being
followed in advanced countries so that we could adapt it in India.”
He added that a large number of delegates including postgraduate students of
Orthopedics have been invited, as this is a wonderful opportunity to learn
from the guest speakers at this workshop.

“Minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery has made
possible reconstruction of ruptured ligaments and
accelerated rehabilitation protocols of exercises have made it possible to
return to pre-injury level of activity early. Most often patient’s own
(autologous) tendons are used for reconstruction and recent fixation devices
like tricalcium phosphate – pll screws which become bone inside in a short
time make removal not necessary,” Dr. J.V.S. Vidya Sagar, Director, Global
Institute of Orthopedics and Organizing Secretary of the Workshop said.
“Also re-injuries and re-ruptures are becoming common as young people are
returning to high demand activity – sports etc. This leaves little choice for
patient’s own tendon re-usage not possible as limited numbers of such
tendons which can be spared are available in human body. This brings in
human Allografts – taken from approved tissue banks a necessity of the
hour,” he added.
