What Is Knee Replacement Surgery?
When Every Step Feels Heavy – Understanding Knee Pain
Knee replacement (arthroplasty) is a surgical procedure in which damaged cartilage and bone are replaced with artificial components made of metal and medical-grade plastic.
The goal is to relieve pain, correct deformity, and help you move better.
There are three main types of knee replacement procedures:
Total Knee Replacement (TKR): Both sides of the knee joint are replaced.
Partial Knee Replacement (PKR): Only the damaged part is replaced.
Robotic Knee Replacement: Performed with precision-guided robotic assistance for perfect implant alignment.
“Knee replacement isn’t just about a new joint — it’s about a new life without pain.”
— Dr. Prince Uchadiya
