Knee Replacement Surgery India

Knee replacement is a surgical procedure to rectify serious knee damage by removing damaged cartilage and bone in the knee joint. Then, human made artificial bones or joints are replaced. Knee replacement can relieve pain and allow you to be more active.  

Knee replacement surgery can be performed as a total or a partial knee replacement. In general, the surgery consists of replacing the diseased or damaged joint surfaces of the knee with metal and plastic components shaped to allow continued motion of the knee. Knee replacement surgery is most commonly performed in people with advanced osteroarthritis. It should be considered when conservative treatments have been exhausted. Total knee replacement is also an option to correct significant knee joint or bone trauma in young patients.  Total knee replacement can be performed to correct serious valgus.

 Knee replacements are usually performed on people suffering from painful arthritic conditions of the knee severe enough to limit one's normal day to day activities. Most people who have artificial knees are over age 55, but the procedure is also offered to younger people with knee degeneration if their quality of life is severely affected.

Knee replacement can be of different types. They are  :


Partial knee replacement

Traditionally, patients have undergone total knee replacement for serious arthritis of the knee joint. But now, the system changed, partial knee surgery or a uni -compartmental knee arthroplasty, is a surgery that may be considered for treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee joint.

During your stay in hospital, a physiotherapist will teach you exercises to help strengthen your knee. You can usually begin these the day after your operation. It is very important that you follow the physiotherapist's advice to avoid complications or dislocation of your new joint. You will usually be in hospital for 6 to 10 days. Patients who have had a half knee replacement usually have a shorter hospital stay.You may be given some specific exercises to do. You may also be given advice on taking short walks and carrying out normal household activities, such as walking up and down stairs. These exercises will help restore your movement and strengthen your new knee.
