Complex knee replacement involves replacing damaged or diseased joint surfaces with prosthetic components designed for stability in cases of bone loss or ligament damage. It is often used for revision surgery or severe deformities.

What Is It?

This procedure is used when standard knee replacement techniques are not sufficient, typically due to significant bone loss, severe deformity, or instability.

Symptoms Treated

• Severe knee pain and swelling.
• Loss of joint function.
• Significant deformity of the knee.

Postoperative Care

• Use of walking aids during recovery.
• Intensive physiotherapy to regain movement and strength.
• Regular check-ups to monitor prosthetic function.

Risks and Complications

• Risk of infection or blood clots.
• Implant wear or loosening over time.
• Potential nerve damage.
