Flexible Total Knee replacement allows patients full knee bending for kneeling, squatting, gardening & prayer.
If arthritic pain holds you back from doing the activities that you love, a minimally invasive total knee replacement will help you regain a more active lifestyle and improve quality of life. If the patient is fit, one can get both knees replaced on the same day under one anesthesia. This shortens the recovery time to only 3 months & saves on cost. Special rates are available for simultaneous bilateral knee replacements. Just send us a query.
Which knee is ideal for you?
When you visit your orthopedic surgeon or read about
this surgery,
you may be confused by the variety of implants available.
If you
are from the Asian sub continent, you will appreciate
the flexibility provided by flexible
knees. Many western patients also prefer flexible or Hi flex TKR.
We routinely use high flexion knees that give you complete knee
bending. More
about high flexion prostheses.
If you are a woman then Gender specific hi flex prostheses like the Nex Gen gender specific knee & Journey knee provide best fit. More. For patients with wear confined to only one compartment, a partial knee replacement may be possible. For patients with arthritis confined to the patello femoral joint (knee cap) patello-femoral replacements will suffice. More about partial knee replacements.
If you are younger than 60 and need knee replacement, MJRC offers you a choice of durable implants. Zirconium or Ceramic knee implants could last you for 20 - 25 years. The Oxinium knee may eliminate or reduce your chances of needing a revision or redo. Oxinium knee implants are 4900 times scratch resistant 25 times lighter and 50 times smoother than cobalt chrome knee prostheses. Two versions are available in India, Genesis & Journey. The Journey knee's unique design replicates the kinematics of the normal human knee. Its bi-cruciate stabilizing design (BCS) gives added stability during stair climbing. Patient specific (custom made) instrumentation improves accuracy and gives better success rates.
Minimally invasive (MIS) surgery- We routinely use minimally invasive approaches. Modern pain relief techniques will ensure a pain free post operative period. To determine your eligibility for a MIS procedure, please mail drvenkat@kneeindia.com.
