Knee Replacement
Knee Replacement Surgeries
Knee pain can be more than just discomfort; it can significantly impact your ability to live life to the fullest. At Mhaishalkar Shinde Orthopedic Hospital, we offer a solution that can change your life: Knee Replacement Surgery. Knee replacement surgery, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a medical procedure in which a damaged or arthritic knee joint is replaced with an artificial joint or prosthesis. There are several types of knee replacement surgeries, each designed to address specific issues or conditions
When Knee Replacement is Considered?
Knee Replacement may be recommended for patients who experience:
Severe knee pain, even at rest
Limited mobility and difficulty performing everyday activities
Persistent knee swelling and stiffness
Lack of relief from non-surgical treatments like medication or physical therapy
Our Services
We provide two types of knee replacement surgeries Total Knee Replacement & Uni Condylar Knee Replacement. Both procedures are aimed at relieving pain, improving joint function, and enhancing your quality of life.
Total Knee Replacement
Total Knee Replacement (TKR), also known as Total Knee Arthroplasty, is a comprehensive surgical procedure designed to address severe knee arthritis or joint damage affecting the entire knee joint. This surgery involves replacing all three compartments of the knee with artificial components, including the femoral, tibial, and patellar components.
Uni Condylar Knee Replacement
Uni Condylar Knee Replacement, also known as Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA), is a surgical option for patients with knee arthritis or damage that primarily affects only one compartment of the knee. Instead of replacing the entire knee joint, this procedure involves replacing only the damaged compartment, either the medial (inner) or lateral (outer) compartment.
