Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS)

A radical new approach in hip surgery by pioneering UK-based surgeon Dr Gursharan Singh Chana, has led to the development of innovative surgical techniques in hip joint replacement and hip resurfacing surgery.


The minimally invasive procedure is carried out through a small posterior incision and has been acclaimed by patients, surgeons and hospital authorities. The incision in conventional hip replacement surgery is typically 25 - 30cm, with minimal invasive surgery, it is reduced to 5.5 - 9cm in length.


Such ground-breaking hip surgery affords a range of extensive benefits to a patient, including; minimal blood loss, quicker recovery time and less pain.


The procedure is of benefit for older patients facing total hip replacement and for younger patients who are suitable for hip resurfacing.
