5 DaysIntroduction to Unilateral Knee Replacement Unilateral knee replacement is a surgical procedure designed to replace the damaged or worn-out portion of a single knee joint with an artificial implant. This procedure is commonly recommended for patients suffering from severe arthritis or injury affecting only one knee, enabling them to regain mobility and alleviate chronic pain.
The primary goal of unilateral knee replacement is to restore joint functionality in patients experiencing debilitating knee pain. Conditions such as osteoarthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, or cartilage degeneration can severely impair daily activities, making surgery an effective solution for improving the quality of life.
Before the surgery, patients undergo a thorough evaluation, including physical examinations, imaging tests like X-rays or MRIs, and a detailed review of medical history. This comprehensive assessment ensures the procedure is tailored to the patient’s unique needs, enhancing the chances of a successful outcome.

During unilateral knee replacement, the surgeon removes the damaged portions of the knee joint and replaces them with a prosthetic implant made of metal or medical-grade plastic. The operation is performed under regional or general anesthesia and typically lasts between one and two hours.
Post-operative care is crucial for achieving optimal results. Patients are encouraged to start physiotherapy sessions within 24 hours of surgery to regain strength and mobility. Rehabilitation focuses on exercises that improve flexibility, reduce stiffness, and enhance the knee's range of motion. Full recovery generally takes six to twelve weeks.
