KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY
Knee replacement surgery, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at relieving pain and restoring function in severely damaged knee joints. It is typically performed when conservative treatments such as medication and physical therapy fail to provide adequate relief from conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or traumatic injury.
During knee replacement surgery, the surgeon removes damaged bone and cartilage from the knee joint and replaces it with artificial components made of metal alloys, high-grade plastics, or polymers. The procedure can be performed using traditional open surgery or minimally invasive techniques, where smaller incisions are made, resulting in potentially quicker recovery times and less postoperative pain.
KNEE REPLACEMENT SURGERY
The primary goal of knee replacement surgery is to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance the overall quality of life for individuals suffering from debilitating knee conditions.
By replacing damaged joint surfaces with artificial implants, patients often experience significant reductions in pain and stiffness, allowing them to resume daily activities with greater ease and comfort. Improved mobility and functionality are commonly observed, enabling individuals to participate in activities that were previously restricted due to knee pain and limitations.
Candidates for knee replacement surgery typically include individuals who have exhausted non-surgical treatment options and continue to experience severe knee pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility that significantly impacts their daily life and activities.
Factors such as age, overall health, extent of joint damage, and the individual’s willingness to adhere to postoperative rehabilitation play crucial roles in determining suitability for the procedure. Orthopedic surgeons carefully evaluate each patient’s condition and medical history to determine the most appropriate treatment plan, which may include knee replacement surgery when deemed necessary to improve the patient’s quality of life and functional outcomes.
