MIOT Hospitals, Chennai is a Leader in Orthopedics and Nationally and Internationally known for their adoption of Professional standards.
The Madras Institute of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (MIOT), had its genesis as an independent wing of Vijaya Hospital, where Padmashree Prof. Dr.P.V.A. Mohandas and his team performed many a surgical impossibility in the field of Orthopaedics. Subsequently, his international travel exposed him to the highly impressive standards of hygiene and competence of medical services in the West He grew obsessed with an overpowering desire to provide similar standards of professional health care in India. He left no stone unturned, no expense spared until in February 1999 MIOT opened its doors to the public. Thus, the seed of desire sown with dedication and nurtured with concerted effort, sprouted and now stands before us as the imposing structure of MIOT – the virtual brainchild of Dr. Mohandas.
MIOT Hospitals, Chennai became a corporate body in early 1994 in tune with the evolving hospital culture overseas. This multi-crore, super-speciality hospital, nationally and internationally acclaimed for its professional standards, has collaborators in Australia, Germany and USA. The Hospital taps the advantage of this collaboration by sending its Doctors and Nurses to Germany periodically as part of its upgradation programme.
What meets the physical eye is the stately concrete masterpiece of functional, modern architecture standing in a sprawling 22 acre site, but what accosts the mind’s eye is the world that lies within the surge of emotions that it houses concern, care and compassion that seek to wipe away the pain, anxiety and helplessness of the ailing in an endeavour to usher in smiles. The power of the emotions housed within has transformed a concrete structure into a Noble Messiah of the Medical Profession. MIOT hospital has drawn a list of celebrities from Presidents of India and Chief Ministers of several States to popular film stars and Diplomats from Germany, U.S.A., Gulf, U.K., Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Dubai and the Maldives.

Through a small hole a Telescope with video camera is introduced into the abdomen. Images from the camera are projected onto the monitor. Surgeons can do any type of surgery by viewing the monitor with additional 0.5cm holes in the abdomen.
“Management of Arthritis” is a specialty of MIOT Hospital. In Arthritis all the movements in the Joints are restricted by pain. Beyond a certain stage, pain killers, injections, massage or any other form of healing may not be adequate. Once restriction of movements occurs in the joints, there is need for replacement.
MIOT gives a beginning, almost where hope has ended. A pioneer in Joint Replacement Surgery in India, MIOT Hospitals has specialized in this area for over two and a half decades and has to its credit rich experience in replacement surgery of hip, knee, shoulder and elbow.
Surgery of the hip and knee may be required for a number of reasons – degeneration, injury, disease or simple ageing of the joint. In these cases, an artificial joint is inserted. But even artificial joints have a limited life and need to be replaced after around 15 years. Artificial joints cause erosion of the surrounding bone and tissue, which poses a challenge for the insertion of another joint.
There are two phases of lengthening until the bone is fully healed : the distraction phase and the consolidation phase. The former is the lengthening phase. After the desired length is obtained, the newly regenerated bone is still very weak because of lack of calcium within it. The hardening and calcification of this new bone is called the consolidation phase.
