Open Reduction of Fracture Cost in Gurgaon, India

The cost of open reduction of fracture in Gurgaon typically ranges from $620 to $6,000 USD (about ₹58,800 to ₹5.69 lakh), depending on the hospital, room category and type of procedure.

A typical estimate for open reduction of fracture in Gurgaon is around $2,000 (about ₹1.90 lakh). What you pay depends mainly on your own case. If a standard implant is used and you stay in a shared room, your bill is likely to be closer to $620 (about ₹58,800). It is likely to be nearer $6,000 (about ₹5.69 lakh) if a specialised implant is used, both sides are treated, it is a repeat operation or you choose a private room.

When comparing Gurgaon packages for open reduction of fracture, check whether each quote includes:

Open reduction of a fracture is an operation that exposes a broken bone so the surgeon can line the pieces up precisely, normally followed by internal fixation with plates, screws or nails.

In a closed reduction the bone is moved back into place without cutting the skin and held in a cast or splint, whereas in an open reduction the fracture is exposed so the pieces can be aligned precisely.

The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) describes plates and screws for many fractures near joints and in the forearm, and rods or nails for thigh and shin fractures.

Possible complications include infection, non-union, malunion and implant issues, and healing time depends on the bone and general health.

Physiotherapy helps restore movement and strength, and the surgeon advises when weight can go on the limb.

Flying home: aviation guidance sets no single wait for bone and joint operations, but leg surgery makes clots on long flights more likely, so ask how to prevent them; UK Civil Aviation Authority medical guidance suggests 24 to 48 hours after a plaster cast.

A Gurgaon quote for open reduction of fracture is normally made up of these items:

• Tests before the operation: X-rays, other scans and an anaesthetic check.
• Theatre and anaesthetic: charged mainly by operating time.
• Implant choice: brand and type of joint, plate or screws.
• Rehabilitation: physiotherapy on the ward and once you leave.
• Fracture: bone and type.
• Implants: plates, screws or nails.
• Admission: emergency or planned.
• Physiotherapy: after surgery.

Fracture costs depend on the bone, the implants and whether surgery is urgent, so it is worth asking the Gurgaon hospital for an itemised quote once X-rays are done.
