Types of Knee Replacement
TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT
Total knee replacement: the whole knee is replaced. This is the most performed surgery. After surgery and recovery, many people can participate in activities they used to do, such as walking, bicycling, golf, tennis, and swimming.
PARTIAL KNEE REPLACEMENT
Partial knee replacement, where only the affected part of the knee is replaced. Compared with a total knee replacement the recovery is usually faster and less painful.
REVISION KNEE REPLACEMENT
Revision Knee Replacement means that part or all of your previous knee replacement needs to be revised.
Knee Replacement Procedure
This procedure is done under anesthesia and your doctor may also recommend one dose of antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection.
During the procedure, your surgeon will make an incision about 6 to 10 inches long, cut away the damaged joint surfaces and then attach the pieces of the artificial joint. Before closing the incision, your surgeon will test by bending and rotating your knee to ensure proper function. The surgery lasts for about two hours.
Post Op Rehabilitation
This procedure is done under anesthesia and your doctor may also recommend one dose of antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection.
