What Is Knee Replacement Surgery?

Knee replacement surgery (arthroplasty) replaces damaged or worn cartilage and bone in the knee joint with artificial components made of metal alloys, high-grade plastics, and polymers. It is one of the most successful procedures in modern orthopaedics.

SurgiKure performs knee replacement using USFDA-approved implants by experienced orthopaedic surgeons. We offer total knee replacement (TKR), partial knee replacement (PKR), and minimally invasive knee surgery — with comprehensive physiotherapy and rehabilitation support for optimal outcomes.

Common Symptoms

Severe knee pain limiting daily activitiesPain while resting or at nightStiffness and reduced range of motionKnee swelling that does not subsideDeformity such as bow-legged or knock-kneed appearanceKnee giving way or feeling unstableFailure of conservative treatments (physio, medications, injections)

Types & Grades

Grade I - Mild Arthritis

Minor cartilage damage. Managed with physiotherapy, weight loss, anti-inflammatory medications, and joint injections.

Grade II - Moderate Arthritis

Partial cartilage loss. May benefit from partial knee replacement (PKR) or PRP/steroid injections.

Grade III - Severe Arthritis

Significant cartilage loss with bone-on-bone contact in parts of the knee. Partial or total knee replacement is considered.

Grade IV - End-Stage Arthritis

Complete cartilage loss, severe bone-on-bone contact, deformity, and constant pain. Total knee replacement (TKR) is the definitive treatment.

Knee Treatment Options

1

Total Knee Replacement (TKR)

The entire knee joint surface is replaced with an artificial implant. The femur, tibia, and patella components are fitted precisely. Most patients walk the next day with physiotherapy. Lasts 15-20 years.

2

Partial Knee Replacement (PKR)

Only the damaged compartment of the knee is replaced. Faster recovery, smaller incision, and a more natural knee feel than TKR.

3

Arthroscopic Surgery

Minimally invasive camera-guided procedure to treat meniscus tears, cartilage damage, and loose bodies. Suitable for early-stage knee problems.

4

PRP & Steroid Injections

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) or corticosteroid injections provide pain relief and slow arthritis progression in mild-to-moderate cases before surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what age is knee replacement recommended?
Typically for patients aged 55-80, but the decision is based on severity of arthritis, pain, and functional limitation - not age alone.
How long does a knee implant last?
Modern knee implants are designed to last 15-20+ years. Younger, active patients may eventually require revision surgery.
When can I walk after knee replacement?
Most patients begin walking with physiotherapy support the day after surgery. Independent walking is typically achieved within 4-6 weeks.
Is knee replacement surgery painful?
The surgery is under general or spinal anaesthesia. Post-operative pain is well-managed. Most patients report significantly less pain than they had before surgery.
Is knee replacement covered by insurance?
Yes. Total and partial knee replacement is covered by most health insurance policies. SurgiKure handles all cashless claim coordination.
