Computer Assisted Total Knee Replacements
Texas Health Arlington Memorial offers a totally integrated, computer-assisted surgical package for total knee replacements. Used by orthopedic surgeons on staff, the CiTM System creates a 3-D rendering of the patient's anatomy, providing an unobstructed view of the knee joint. Unlike traditional joint replacements, in which a post-operative X-ray is the only assessment tool, the CiTM System offers immediate information in the operating room, resulting in greater accuracy and more informed decisions.
Hand Surgery
- Carpal tunnel surgery
- Tendonitis treatment
- Reconstruction for arthritic hands and wrists
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Surgeons on the medical staff perform minimally-invasive spine procedures. From micro-discectomies to minimally-invasive fusions, these procedures are often done in a day surgery setting, getting patients back to their life with as little interruption as possible.
Rehabilitation Services
Physical therapists are experienced in a full spectrum of orthopedic rehabilitation. From the weekend warrior with an ankle sprain to the person recovering from a total knee replacement, Arlington Memorial has the staff and equipment to put patients on the road to recovery. Therapists also treat novice, high school and college athletes working toward re-entry into sports activities. Follow this link for more information or call 817-960-6565.
Shoulder Surgery
- Arthroscopy - rotator cuff surgery, open and minimally invasive/arthroscopic
- Shoulder replacement - reverse shoulder arthroplasty for rotator cuff deficient arthritic shoulders
Tissue Sparing Total Hip Replacement
This surgery requires less deep muscle dissection and detachment which results in quicker recovery with less pain and rehabilitation in select patients.
