Total Knee Replacement

Total Knee Replacement, also known as Total Knee Arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to restore function and relieve pain in a deteriorated knee joint. The surgery involves replacing the ends of the bones in the knee joint with artificial prostheses made from high-grade plastic, polymers, or metal alloys. This procedure is performed under either general anesthesia (where you are unconscious) or spinal anesthesia (where you are awake but feel no pain below the waist). Antibiotics are administered intravenously before, during, and after surgery to prevent post-surgical infections. Our experienced surgeons perform the surgery by making an incision, accessing the joint, and installing the prosthetic components after carefully removing the damaged bone and cartilage.
