Knee replacement surgery, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a medical procedure where a damaged or deteriorated knee joint is replaced with an artificial implant. This surgery is designed to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve overall knee function.
This procedure is typically recommended for patients experiencing:
Severe osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis
Chronic knee pain that limits daily activities
Stiffness and swelling that does not improve with medication or therapy
Knee deformities (such as bowing or instability)
During the surgery, the damaged bone and cartilage are removed and replaced with a metal and plastic prosthesis that mimics the natural knee joint. The procedure involves:
Precision removal of damaged joint surfaces.
Placement of the artificial implant for smooth movement.
Securing the prosthesis for long-term stability.
Modern techniques have improved recovery and success rates, including:
Minimally invasive surgery (smaller incisions, faster healing)
Robotic-assisted knee replacement (enhanced precision)
Customized implants for better fit and function
After surgery, patients typically:
Begin walking with assistance within 24 hours.
Undergo physical therapy to regain strength and flexibility.
Experience full recovery in 6–12 weeks, with continued improvement over months.
Significant pain relief
Restored mobility and flexibility
Improved quality of life
Long-lasting results (15–20 years for most implants)
If knee pain is limiting your daily life and conservative treatments haven’t helped, consult an orthopedic specialist to explore whether knee replacement surgery is the best solution for you.
