A Century of Strength: Successful Hip Fracture Surgery in a 100-Year-Old Patient
At Maloo Hospital, we believe that quality healthcare knows no age limits. One of the most remarkable cases that reflects our values of care, expertise, and hope is the successful treatment of a 100-year-old female patient who presented with a fractured hip (proximal femur fracture) — a critical and high-risk condition, particularly in elderly patients.
When the patient arrived at our hospital, she was in severe pain, unable to walk, and understandably filled with fear about her condition and the possibility of surgery at such an advanced age. However, the orthopedic and surgical team at Maloo Hospital, led by Dr. B. N. Maloo, approached the case with precision, empathy, and clinical excellence.
After a comprehensive pre-operative evaluation and stabilization, the team performed a successful hip surgery (likely a hemiarthroplasty or internal fixation based on bone condition and age factors). The procedure was completed without complications, and her post-operative recovery was closely monitored through physiotherapy and guided rehabilitation.
Today, the patient is not only pain-free but is also able to walk again with support, regaining mobility and dignity in her daily life. Her story stands as a powerful testament to what expert medical intervention, combined with compassionate care, can achieve — even at 100 years of age.
