Star Hospital Celebrates 200 Successful Joint Replacement Surgeries

Star Hospital's Orthopaedics department has marked a significant milestone, completing its 200th successful joint replacement surgery — a testament to the team's surgical expertise and the trust patients across Nepal place in their care.

Restoring mobility, one patient at a time

From hip and knee replacements to complex revision surgeries, the orthopaedic team combines modern implants with minimally-invasive techniques to reduce recovery time and get patients back on their feet faster.

Many patients treated under this programme had lived with chronic pain for years before surgery; post-operative feedback consistently highlights dramatically improved quality of life within weeks of the procedure.

What comes next

The department plans to expand its dedicated physiotherapy and rehabilitation unit to support even faster recoveries, alongside continued training for surgeons in the latest arthroscopic techniques.
