Since 1979, the Adult Reconstruction Service at CU Orthopaedics
has specialized in joint preservation and replacement in patients
over the age of 18 years with the goal of extending the life of
a joint before a replacement is needed. The division offers joint
replacement for all major joints.
We utilize cutting edge technology such as surgical
navigation, computer assisted methods, and arthroscopic assisted
techniques to perform minimally invasive surgery and rapidly restore
an active lifestyle. In addition, we use many different implants
depending on patient need and an appreciation of an implant’s
performance over time.
We offer integrated joint reconstructive services
with University Hospital, in which all physician care, testing,
and therapy are provided in the same system by a core group of people.
Problems unique to each individual patient are addressed by our
extended faculty of over 700 physicians representing all specialties
of medicine.
Our combined experience totals more than 100 years
and over 4,000 total joint reconstructions performed. We provide
specialized joint care for those patients with hemophilia and bloodless
surgery for patients who are Jehovah’s Witness.
