Knee replacement Surgery for Post Injury Arthrosis

Knee replacement Surgery for post injury arthrosis

Injury to knee leads to three major issues for a person.

One, the knee becomes out of shape if not treated properly

Two it becomes painful

Three it becomes still, it looses movements

These x-rays show one such knee. This is a young man, who after his knee fracture was treated with plate and screws, but in an improper way leading to painful, deformed still knee.

He wanted a painless, straight and mobile knee joint

The only option was Knee replacement Surgery

I had to do a lot of calculations and drawings to get his desired result

Case 2

This gentleman had fracture through his knee, that had it come earlier, I would have treated with proper alignment with plate and screws

But unfortunately, he presented almost after one year, where in setting it correct would not have solved his problem

So I had to resort to knee replacement surgery

If you notice, in these cases, one needs extra support by screws and long rod.
