Knee Replacement (Revision)
Understanding revision knee replacement surgery
Total knee replacement surgery helps to restore movement and reduce pain in knee joints affected by arthritis or injury. However, knee replacements can eventually wear out over time, just like a normal joint.
When this happens, revision knee replacement surgery will be needed in order to help you remain as mobile and pain-free as possible.
What is revision knee replacement surgery?
Revision knee replacement revision surgery is a surgical procedure carried out when a previous knee replacement has worn out or ‘failed’.
Total knee replacements are usually expected to easily last for 10+ years, although they can be affected/damaged by trauma, infection and age.
Any loss of function in the knee joint may lead to the need for a further operation, known as revision knee replacement surgery.
