What is Revision Knee Replacement?

Revision knee replacement is a surgical procedure performed to replace a previously implanted knee prosthesis with a new one. The procedure is typically recommended when a primary knee replacement has failed, or when there is damage or wear to the components of the knee implant. The goal of revision knee replacement is to relieve pain, restore function, and improve mobility.

During the procedure, the orthopedic surgeon removes the old knee prosthesis and replaces it with a new one. The surgery may be more complex than a primary knee replacement due to factors such as bone loss, tissue damage, and scar tissue formation. The new prosthesis may be the same type as the previous one or may be a different design depending on the individual patient's needs.

How About Recovery After The Procedure?

Recovery time after revision knee replacement varies depending on the extent of the surgery and the individual patient's age and overall health. Physical therapy and rehabilitation are typically necessary to help the patient regain strength, flexibility, and mobility in the knee joint.

Revision knee replacement carries some risks and potential complications, and patients should carefully consider their options and consult with their healthcare provider to determine if the procedure is the right treatment option for them. However, for patients who have experienced a failed primary knee replacement, revision surgery can provide significant relief and improve their quality of life.
