Knee Replacement

Knee replacement surgery is a procedure used to treat severe arthritis of the knee that is causing significant pain and impairment of function. The surgery involves replacing the damaged knee joint with metal and plastic prosthetic components that move together and act like a natural knee joint. This procedure can improve knee stability, reduce pain and restore mobility, allowing patients to resume activities such as walking, exercising and performing daily tasks. Knee replacement has a high success rate and is considered a safe and effective option for some patients.
