Joint replacement surgery in Mumbai

Dr. Mohit Shete is a joint replacement surgeon in Mumbai who replaces joints that are badly damaged by arthritis, injury or loss of blood supply to the bone. In joint replacement surgery the worn joint surfaces are removed and replaced with smooth metal and plastic parts, so the joint can move again without bone rubbing on bone.

He holds a fellowship in arthroplasty (joint replacement) from Germany and is certified in MAKO robotic-arm assisted total knee and total hip replacement, which helps place the implant precisely according to a plan made from your own CT scan. He follows a bone-conserving, rapid-recovery approach, so most patients walk with support within a day or two.

Questions about joint replacement surgeon in Mumbai

How long does a joint replacement last?
Modern knee and hip replacements last 15 to 20 years or more in most patients. Keeping a healthy weight and staying active with low-impact exercise helps them last longer.
What is MAKO robotic-arm assisted joint replacement?
A technique in which the surgeon plans the operation on a 3D model made from your CT scan and a robotic arm helps make precise bone cuts within that plan. The surgeon performs the operation; the robot improves accuracy.
Am I too old for joint replacement surgery?
Age alone is not the deciding factor. Your general health, heart and lung fitness and how much the joint limits your life matter more. Many patients in their seventies and eighties benefit.
