Total Knee Arthroplasty
Total Knee Arthroplasty, also known as total knee replacement, is a surgical procedure used to relieve pain and restore mobility to a damaged or diseased knee joint. It involves the removal of the joint surfaces and the insertion of artificial parts to replace them. This is a major orthopedic surgery that is often used to improve the quality of life of people suffering from debilitating knee arthritis or other chronic knee conditions. Total Knee Arthroplasty can also be used to repair knee ligament and cartilage damage, as well as to replace a damaged knee joint following a traumatic injury. The procedure can provide relief from pain, restore mobility and improve the quality of life for many patients.
