Understanding what is
reconstructive surgery :
Reconstructive surgery restores the function to parts of the body that have been damaged by birth defects, disease-related defects, or injury-related defects. Reconstructive surgery involves procedures like cleft lip and palate repair and breast reconstruction.
The word "reconstructive" relates to the process of rebuilding something after it has been damaged or destroyed.
Generally people who have faced defects right from the birth, or in case of any injury or accidents that have left with deformities.
There are various types of reconstructive surgeries
from which one can choose from:
Breast reconstruction or
reduction :
Breast reduction surgery is available for women who have had a mastectomy or who have unusually large breasts that are causing back problems or other health concerns; males can also have their breasts reduced.
Procedures for hands and feets:
This procedure is accessible for persons with a variety of ailments, including cancerous and non-cancerous tumors, as well as webbed or additional toes or fingers. Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition that can be treated.
Wound care:
Skin grafts or other reconstructive treatments are offered for people who have been severely burned or cut.
Microsurgery:
These procedures can be used to replace bodily components that have been damaged or diseased, such as cancer. Ear reconstruction surgery is also performed for people who have deformed ears.
Facial Procedures:
These procedures can be used to treat face deformities like cleft lip, breathing issues like snoring, and persistent infections like sinusitis.
How is reconstructive
surgery recommended?
The situation of each person will be assessed on an individual basis. Your surgeon will gather information about your medical history and assess your case based on your desired outcomes and medical necessity. You might, for example, have a breast removed in order to treat breast cancer. You can have plastic reconstructive surgery to have an implant placed in your breast. Choose the top facial reconstruction surgeons for the procedure, as it is important to find the best choice.
How does reconstructive
surgery work?
Reconstructive surgery frequently employs tissue from one part of the body to restore another. Head and neck surgery, for example, may alter the contour of your jawbone. As a result, your surgeon may need to remove bone from your leg in order to restore your jaw. This can help your jaw regain its original form and function.
Your surgeon will use microscopic stitches to join the tissue and blood vessels in the new region, ensuring that the tissue receives adequate blood flow.
You'd need a microscope to see the stitches since they're so little. This procedure is also known as "microvascular" surgery.
Procedure of the reconstructive surgery:
Breast reconstructive surgery: The breast reconstruction with flap is a procedure
that involves two methods.
Pedicled flap surgery:
Some blood vessels in the tissue to be transferred are severed, but other blood vessels are left intact.
The surgeon builds a new breast mound or pocket for the implant by tunneling tissue beneath your skin to your chest area.
Free flap surgery:
The surgeon disconnects the tissue's blood supply completely and reconnects it to new blood arteries near your chest.
Free flap surgery takes longer compared to pedicled flap surgery because blood vessels need to be reattached.
Cleft lip surgery:
The cleft lip will be fixed and closed with stitches after your kid has been given a general anesthetic (when they are rendered unconscious).
The procedure usually takes about 1 and 2 hours.
The majority of newborns spend one to two days in the hospital. It's possible that you'll be able to stay with them during this period.

What Our Patients Are Saying
In my childhood, I had experienced third degree burns on my hand and the scars did not seem to go away even after many years. This hit my confidence levels and I wanted to get rid of the scars. I started to look for options on the internet and found out about Sri Ramakrishna Hospital. I met the reconstructive surgeon and explained my concern. The doctor suggested to me options I can choose from. It s been six months since the procedure and my skin is free of scars. Thank you Sri Ramakrishna Hospital for helping me out.
