Knee Replacement
It is a surgery in which the injured joint is replaced by a surgeon with an artificial joint or prosthesis. Artificial joint function is normal and has a long life. The average lifespan of these joints is about 15 years. These joints are made of metal or plastic and polymer alloys. There are various reasons why a person has to change their knee joint. One of the main reasons that lead patients to perform this operation is the severity of knee pain that is caused by injury, accident, old age, chronic diseases or wear of the knee joint.
Surgical method
This surgery takes about 2 hours in the operating room. Before the surgery, some tests will be taken and your knee will be imaged with MRI and X-rays. The orthopedic surgeon makes an incision above the knee and then removes the damaged cartilage and bone by pulling on the skin and muscle and attaching the new knee joint to the end of the femur and the top of the tibia. This connector is made of special screws and pins. All these equipment, implants and screws in Mortaz Hospital are provided by world renowned companies and have the highest possible standard.
