Hip and Knee Surgery

Hip & Knee Surgeons in Syracuse

The hip and pelvic region is an intricate component to posture, stability, flexibility, and movement. Your hips bear the full weight of your body, allowing for an incredibly wide range of motion. Understanding the components and functions of your hips will help you avoid injury and create awareness of potential diseases that may occur.

Even though the hip is durable, it isn’t indestructible. Common causes of hip pain include arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, and fractures.

Our hip surgeons are expert in diagnosing and treating the following injuries and conditions:

  • Abnormalities and Congenital Deformities
  • Avascular Necrosis
  • Chondral Defects
  • Hip Fracture
  • Hip Dislocation
  • Hip Labral Tears
  • Hip Impingement
  • Snapping Hip
  • Hip Fracture
  • Cartilage Defects/Flaps
  • Unexplained Hip Pain
  • Inflammation of the Hip Lining (Synovitis)
  • Infection

Our hip specialists can discuss hip reconstruction and replacement procedures with you, which may include:

Knee

The knee is the largest joint in the body and the most commonly used. It provides stability and flexibility for your body, and allows your legs to bend and straighten. The components of the knee – cartilage, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and bones – work together to protect the joint during everyday activities such as walking and running.

Any part of the knee may be injured. Knee pain can indicate a number of different problems such as arthritis, tendonitis, cartilage or ligament tears, and more. When pain disrupts your day-to-day mobility and prevents you from participating in your favorite athletic activities, it’s time to seek expert orthopedic treatment.

The knee surgeons at Upstate Orthopedics are specialists who are trained in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous knee conditions:

  • Acute and Overuse Injuries
  • All Athletic-Related Injuries
  • Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Tear
  • Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) Tear
  • Patellar Tendon Tear
  • Knee Tendon Bursitis
  • Meniscus Tear
  • Osgood-Schlatter Disease (Knee Pain)
  • Osteoarthritis of the Knee
  • Patellofemoral Syndrome (Knee Cap)

Common knee surgeries include:

  • Total Knee Replacement
