Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL)
Reconstruction
The anterior cruciate ligament is one of the four primary
ligaments around the knee joint. It is the major stabilising
ligament of the knee. The ACL can be injured by trauma or
sports. If the ligament is completely torn, it will not heal.
At the time of injury, the following may occur:
- a “POP” from the injured knee
- rapid development of a swollen knee
- inability to continue playing the game
We have inpatient package prices for ACL reconstruction
package with autograft and ACL reconstruction
with autograft and meniscus repair.

our IMS team.
Knee Replacement
A knee replacement surgery is considered in cases of severe
osteoarthritis where the pain becomes troublesome and interferes
with the functioning of normal daily activities. This is a
condition where the cartilage on the surface of the joint
wears away. This results in the bones rubbing against each
other directly, causing movement of the joint to become painful
and restricted. The most common symptoms of osteoarthritis
are pain, stiffness, swelling, and weakness in the knee.
Knee replacement surgery is replacement of the joint surfaces
(cartilage) of the knee with artificial implants. Knee replacement
can be performed under general or regional anaesthesia. The
procedure lasts between 1.5 to 2.5 hours.
We have inpatient package prices for knee replacement. The
packages are for unilateral uncomplicated procedures excluding
the price of implants.
For more information/appointment, please contact
our IMS team.
Hip Replacement
Hip replacement, or arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure
in which the diseased parts of the hip joint are removed and
replaced with new, artificial parts. These artificial parts
are called the prosthesis. Hip replacement surgery helps increase
mobility, improves the function of the hip joint, and relieves
pain.
We have inpatient package prices for hip replacement. The
packages are for unilateral uncomplicated procedures excluding
the price of implants.
