Himachal: Pelvic surgery facility to start soon at AIIMS Bilaspur; patients to benefit significantly

June 10, 2026

There is welcome news for patients suffering from severe trauma and accident injuries who come to AIIMS Bilaspur from the state and neighboring regions. The institute’s Orthopedics Department is set to introduce state-of-the-art pelvic instrumentation facilities soon. With the arrival of this advanced surgical toolkit, it will now be possible to treat even the most complex fractures of the hip, lower back, and pelvic bones right here at AIIMS. The AIIMS administration has expedited the process of adding this modern equipment to the hospital’s inventory. Patients who have sustained severe injuries from road accidents or falls from heights stand to benefit the most from this modern facility.

Previously, cases involving pelvic fractures often presented such severe bleeding and complications that patients had to be immediately referred to PGI Chandigarh or Delhi, or were compelled to seek treatment at expensive private hospitals. With the introduction of this facility, patients will now be able to access world-class, safe treatment right in Bilaspur. According to orthopedic specialists, the pelvic instrumentation system is a specialized, high-tech surgical kit. It enables doctors to fix fractured pelvic bones with precise alignment. During the operation, specialized tools, screws, and plates are used to secure the bone so firmly that the risks of improper healing or lifelong lameness are eliminated.

Unlike traditional surgeries, this modern technique ensures that patients do not have to remain bedridden for weeks. Precise fixation results in minimal post-operative pain and faster recovery, allowing patients to get back on their feet quickly. The AIIMS administration has also taken special care to ensure that emergency surgeries are never interrupted due to equipment malfunction.
