Why Reconstruction Matters After Trauma or Cancer
Beyond closing a wound, true reconstruction restores confidence, function, and participation. Ajuda Hospitals unites plastic surgeons, oncologists, orthopaedic surgeons, ENT, neurosurgery, physiotherapy, and psychologists to rebuild lives after cancer excisions, road accidents, or congenital challenges. We help patients return to work, school, and social life with dignity.
From Diagnosis to Definitive Surgery
- Comprehensive Assessment: Review imaging, pathology, and prior surgeries. Determine goals—speech, chewing, walking, appearance.
- Plan Simulation: 3D printed models and virtual planning predict bone cuts, flap inset, and dental alignment.
- Surgery Scheduling: Aligns with oncology timelines, infection control, and donor-site readiness.
- ICU Monitoring: Implantable Doppler probes, nurse ratios 1:1, and stepwise mobilisation under anaesthetist watch.
- Rehab Milestones: Physiotherapy, speech, and occupational therapy start in-hospital and continue through tele-sessions post discharge.
Reconstruction Pathways
- Head & Neck: Mandible, tongue, palate reconstruction using fibula, radial forearm, or anterolateral thigh flaps. Speech and swallowing therapy integrated from day one.
- Limb Trauma: Soft-tissue cover for exposed bone, nerve grafts, and tendon balancing to avoid amputation. External fixators and bone transport rebuild length.
- Breast & Trunk: DIEP flap, implant with mesh support, or fat grafting for symmetry. Oncoplastic surgeons guide oncological safety and aesthetics.
- Pediatric & Congenital: Cleft lip/palate revisions, ear reconstruction, craniofacial deformity correction with staged growth-friendly techniques.
- Secondary Refinement: Contour debulking, fat grafting, tattooing, and laser polishing refine appearance and patient comfort.
Rehabilitation & Support
Integrated support includes:
- ✓ Nutritionists boosting protein and micronutrients for healing
- ✓ Speech therapists aiding pronunciation and swallowing post head-neck surgery
- ✓ Occupational therapists adapting homes/workplaces
- ✓ Psychologists and support groups addressing body image and resilience
Telemedicine reviews help outstation patients from Karimnagar, Nizamabad, and Amaravati stay on track without frequent travel.
Technology at Work
Operating microscopes, fluorescence angiography, 3D-printed cutting guides, and patient-specific implants enhance precision. In-house dental lab and prosthetists craft obturators, splints, and prostheses tailored to each case.
