While you're there, take a minute to read about the new hip replacement procedure they offer - and what makes it so much better than the traditional option.
It's called the SPAIRE technique, and if you haven't heard of it yet that's surprising. You could almost say the procedure is becoming famous, because it's the only way to get a complete hip replacement with absolutely no post-surgery mobility restrictions.
This technique fits in perfectly with the other services offered by The MSK Doctors clinic, because they specialise in using regenerative medicine and non-surgical or minimally invasive techniques whenever possible. Their goal is always to reduce the amount of trauma caused during operations so that you have less post-operative pain and faster recovery times.
While the SPAIRE technique is not yet widely available through the public health system, it has been thoroughly tested, researched, and used successfully around the world. Originally pioneered by Professor Timperley at the Exeter Hip Unit, the procedure is now the accepted best practice at private specialty clinics such as MSK Doctors, and a favorite of patients, because it allows surgeons to significantly reduce the physical damage caused during the operation.
Professor Lee, the founder of the MSK Doctors clinic, mentored under Professor Timperley to perfect the SPAIRE procedure, and to gather data about its effectiveness in comparison to the standard procedure. You can find more information about his work, the procedure, and the benefits of SPAIRE over traditional hip surgery, published by Professor Lee in the Journal of Arthritis and HIP International.
In short, with a traditional hip replacement surgery, surgeons are required to damage the abductor complex, gemelli, obturator internus, and piriformis tendons. While all your muscles and tendons are important, this specific selection is important for walking, lifting our legs, rotating at the hips, and more.
Using the new SPAIRE procedure, Professor Lee can perform a complete hip replacement surgery while sparing these muscles and tendons from damage - and that has a lot of benefits.
To begin with, that means after your surgery, you'll still have your full range of motion, with no mobility restrictions. The new technique also reduces the risk of dislocations during the recovery process, so that you don't have to worry about hurting yourself or setting back the healing process, every time you move your hips.
A spokesperson for the clinic explained, “Research has shown that the quadriceps coxae is not just an external rotator and is the primary abductor and extensor for the hip joint in a 90° flexed position, which means it has a major effect on one-legged and weight-bearing rising and propulsive motions.“
Medical science is advancing, often faster than we can train the vast majority of our medical professionals.
That doesn't mean that you shouldn't be able to benefit from the most innovative and cutting-edge techniques available - you just need to know where to look.
