Areas of Expertise of Dr. Ramprasad Jasthi

Dr. Ramprasad MIOT is known to have multiple areas of expertise including

• Leg Length Differences: When one arm or leg is shorter than the other, there is a limb-length disparity. There may be a fraction of an inch to several inches of variance in length. Some children grow their arms or legs at different rates because of congenital limb variations.
• Pelvic and acetabular fractures: A fracture in the hip socket is called an acetabular fracture. You have a "ball-and-socket" joint in your hip. The socket is formed by your pelvic bone, the acetabulum. The ball is formed by your femoral head, which is the top end of your femur, or thigh bone.
• Birth defects (congenital deformities): Birth defects are anatomical abnormalities that exist from birth and can impact nearly any portion of the body, including the heart, brain, and foot. They could impact the way the body functions, appears, or both. Birth defects range in severity from minor to major. A person with a birth defect may or may not live to a reasonable age, depending on the extent of the abnormality and the body part affected.
• Posttraumatic Bone Deformities: Post-traumatic abnormalities can result from tumors, infections, injuries, or accidents. The injury itself or issues arising from the care or handling of the injury may be the source of the malformation. Trauma-related limb abnormalities can occur suddenly or develop over time as a result of healing from an event like a vehicle accident. There are numerous possibilities for treatment, such as bracing, splinting, or medical attention.
• Non-healing fractures ( Non-unions): When the fragments of a fractured bone do not fuse back together, it is known as a nonunion or nonhealing fracture. When a doctor fixes a broken bone following an injury, the bone usually grows new tissue right away.
• Bone Loss From Tumors, Trauma, or Infection: A disorder known as osteoporosis, or weak bones, makes bones brittle and more prone to fractures. Bone density decreases due to osteoporosis. The quantity of calcified bone tissue in your bones is known as bone density. If you have osteoporosis, you run the danger of breaking a bone in even the most minor of accidents or falls or from ordinary activities.
• Congenital Pseudarthrosis: A rare dysplastic pathological disorder of the lower limbs that causes severe impairment is congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia. While the exact cause of this disorder is unknown, neurofibromatosis type 1 has been linked to it.
• Joint Contractures: Your muscles, tendons, joints, or other tissues can shorten or tighten, resulting in a deformity called a contracture. Joint discomfort and limited range of motion are signs of contracture. Medical professionals can use physical therapy, casts, and medication to address contractures.
• Bone Infections (Osteomyelitis): Bacteria or fungi can cause osteomyelitis, an infection of the bone. The soft tissue inside your bones, called bone marrow, swells painfully as a result. If left untreated, the swelling brought on by this bone infection might cut off your bone's blood supply, which will result in bone death.

Specializations of Dr. Ramprasad Jasthi

Dr. Ram Prasad has various specializations in the vast field of orthopedics. Some of them are,

• Elbow Replacement Surgery: During elbow replacement surgery, damaged elbow joint components are removed and replaced with metal and plastic implants.
• Elbow Arthroscopy: Your surgeon will put in an arthroscope, a tiny camera, into your elbow joint during an elbow arthroscopy.
• Lateral Epicondyle Release (Tennis Elbow): The extensor tendon is freed of tension thanks to this procedure. The lateral epicondyle is the first area where the surgeon makes an incision on the arm.
• Fracture reduction and fixation: This means that in order to preserve the alignment and allow the body to mend the fracture on its own, a formal incision (Open), the bones are realigned (Reduction), and an implant is employed (Internal Fixation).
• Osteotomy: Any procedure in which your bones are sliced and reshaped is called an osteotomy. This kind of operation might be necessary to fix a broken joint.
• Arthrolysis: The goal of this surgery is to restore mobility to ankylosed joints by removing adhesions.
• Shoulder Replacement Surgery: Shoulder replacement is a difficult surgery in which prosthetic components are used to replace the shoulder joint.
• Open Reduction of Fracture: Your bones will be surgically realigned during an open reduction by orthopedic surgeons who reposition the broken fragments of your bone.
• Repair of Shoulder Rotator Cuff: The most common procedure for reconstructing a torn rotator cuff includes reattaching the tendon to the humerus, or upper arm bone.
• Acromioclavicular Joint Repair: The goal of surgery for an AC joint injury is to remove the injured end of the clavicle bone in order to reduce pain and restore function.
• Repair of dislocations: You may require surgery to fix any internal injuries caused by an injury that dislocated your joint.
