Complex Bone Fracture or Failed Trauma Surgery?
Complex bone trauma — including high-energy fractures, failed fixation, non-union, malunion and peri-prosthetic fractures — needs specialist orthopaedic trauma care.

Complex Bone Trauma Treatment in Ahmedabad
This service is designed for patients with fractures or bone trauma that is beyond routine management.
- High-energy fractures involving the hip, knee, or femur — especially after accidents
- Peri-prosthetic fractures near or around an existing joint implant
- Non-union — fractures that have failed to heal after 6 months of treatment
- Malunion — fractures healed in incorrect alignment causing pain or deformity
- Failed previous fracture fixation with plates, nails, or screws
- Polytrauma cases involving multiple joint or bone injuries
- Revision of failed trauma surgery performed elsewhere
Why Complex Trauma Requires a Specialist
Not all fractures are the same. Complex trauma cases often involve implants, multiple bone fragments, poor bone quality, or previous surgical failure.
Expertise Matters
Treatment decisions in complex trauma require advanced planning, proper implant selection, and reconstructive expertise beyond routine fracture care.
- 20+ years of joint reconstruction experience
- Experience in revising failed surgeries
- Knowledge of bone healing around prostheses
Advanced Surgical Support
Dr. Marothi uses appropriate fixation and reconstruction techniques based on fracture pattern, bone quality, and patient condition.
- Advanced implant systems
- Fixation devices for difficult fractures
- Care at Asian Bariatric Hospital, Ahmedabad
What to Expect at Each Stage of Your Care
From assessment to rehabilitation, every step is planned according to the complexity of the fracture.
Assessment
Clinical review of injury, previous surgery records, X-ray or CT scan evaluation. Second opinion is welcome.
Surgical Planning
Understanding fracture pattern, bone quality, implant options, and pre-operative health optimisation.
Surgery
Definitive fixation or reconstruction using suitable implants. Theatre time depends on case complexity.
Monitoring
Regular follow-up with X-rays, pain management, infection prevention, and healing progress review.
Rehabilitation
Physiotherapy and weight-bearing progression are guided by fracture type, fixation strength, and X-ray healing.
Frequently Asked Questions — Complex Bone Trauma
What makes a fracture complex?
A fracture is considered complex when it involves multiple bone fragments, nearby joints or existing implants, has failed to heal, has healed incorrectly, or requires reconstruction instead of simple fixation.
I had surgery elsewhere and my bone has not healed. Can Dr. Marothi help?
Yes. Dr. Marothi welcomes second opinions and revision cases. Please bring previous surgical records, X-rays, CT scans, and operative notes during consultation.
How soon should complex trauma be assessed?
As soon as possible, especially if the fracture involves a joint, implant, or major displacement. Early specialist involvement can improve treatment options.
What is non-union?
Non-union means a fractured bone has not healed within the expected time, usually around 6 months or more. Treatment may include bone grafting, plate fixation, exchange nailing, or biological stimulation.
What rehabilitation is needed after complex trauma surgery?
Rehabilitation depends on injury type, surgical repair, and patient health. Physiotherapy and weight-bearing are progressed only after the surgical team confirms adequate bone stability.
What Makes Dr. Dhiraj Marothi Jain’s Technique Different?
The R2R (Resurfacing to Recovery) Protocol is developed to enhance recovery, improve patient comfort, and achieve more natural knee function through precision-based knee replacement surgery.
- Less post-operative discomfort compared with traditional knee replacement methods
- Shorter surgical duration, helping minimise anaesthesia exposure
- Minimal tissue handling and limited surgical exposure
- Precise resurfacing of damaged bone and cartilage while preserving natural knee mechanics
- Advanced Medial Congruent / Medial Pivot implant philosophy designed to replicate natural knee movement and stability
- Routine use of drains and urinary catheters is generally avoided in suitable patients
- Early standing and assisted walking typically initiated within 24 hours after surgery
- Lower infection risk due to reduced operative time and streamlined surgical protocol
- Faster functional recovery with many suitable patients returning to regular daily activities within approximately 15 days
- Focus on balanced knee motion, improved confidence while walking, and enhanced patient satisfaction
*Recovery outcomes vary depending on patient age, medical condition, bone quality, body weight, rehabilitation participation, and overall post-operative compliance.
