Minimal Invasive Foot and Ankle Surgery in Chandigarh, Mohali & Panchkula

Advanced Foot Deformity Correction with Faster Recovery

Foot and ankle problems can significantly affect mobility, sports performance, work life, and overall quality of life. Traditional surgeries often involve large incisions, prolonged recovery, and higher soft tissue trauma. However, with advances in orthopedic technology, Minimal Invasive Foot and Ankle Surgery (MIS) has transformed the treatment of complex foot and ankle disorders.

At Fortis Hospital Mohali, Dr. Chandan Narang specializes in advanced minimally invasive techniques for treating foot deformities, sports injuries, ankle instability, diabetic foot conditions, and complex reconstruction procedures.

What is Minimal Invasive Foot and Ankle Surgery?

Minimal invasive foot and ankle surgery involves performing corrective procedures through small keyhole incisions using specialized instruments and imaging guidance. Unlike traditional open surgery, MIS techniques reduce damage to surrounding muscles, tendons, and soft tissues.

This modern approach allows:
• Smaller scars
• Less pain
• Faster recovery
• Reduced swelling
• Early mobilization
• Better cosmetic outcomes
• Lower risk of wound complications

Patients can often start rehabilitation earlier compared to conventional surgeries.

Conditions Treated with Minimal Invasive Techniques

1. Foot Deformity Correction

Complex foot deformities can lead to pain, shoe-wear difficulty, imbalance, ulcers, and walking limitations. MIS techniques help correct deformities while preserving surrounding tissues.

Conditions include:
• Claw toes
• Hammer toes
• Curly toes
• Forefoot deformities
• Midfoot deformities
• Cavus foot
• Residual deformities after trauma

Diabetic Foot & Charcot Foot Reconstruction

India has one of the highest numbers of diabetic patients in the world. Delayed treatment often results in:
• Foot ulcers
• Toe deformities
• Midfoot collapse
• Charcot arthropathy
• Infection risk

Advanced minimally invasive reconstruction helps improve foot alignment, reduce pressure points, and decrease recurrent ulcer formation.

Early treatment by an experienced foot and ankle surgeon is crucial to avoid amputation risk.

⸻

Flat Foot Correction Surgery

Flat foot deformity may cause:
• Arch collapse
• Heel pain
• Difficulty in sports
• Fatigue while walking
• Progressive ankle instability

Modern minimally invasive flat foot correction techniques can restore alignment with smaller incisions and faster rehabilitation.

⸻

Sports Injury Management

Athletes and active individuals commonly suffer from:
• Ankle ligament tears
• Chronic ankle instability
• Achilles tendon injuries
• Stress fractures
• Cartilage injuries

MIS procedures and ankle arthroscopy help athletes return to activity faster with minimal soft tissue disruption.
