SIMS Tumakuru Performs First Ceramic Knee Implant Surgery

SIMS Tumakuru Performs First Ceramic Knee Implant Surgery

In Tumakuru, a hospital called Shridevi Institute of Medical Sciences (SIMS) did a new type of knee surgery for the first time.

They used a special ceramic implant instead of the usual metal one.

Ceramic implants may be better for people who are sensitive to metals because they cause less inflammation.

They also last longer and can make joints feel more comfortable.

The hospital aims to make this advanced technology affordable for everyone who needs it, especially people suffering from knee pain or arthritis.

The hospital also offers minimally invasive procedures and personalized care to improve outcomes.
