Knee Revision Surgery

Even though knee replacement is one of the most successful orthopedic surgeries, there is a slight possibility of failure. When this happens, the joint becomes swollen and painful. It may as well become stiff or unstable.

When this happens, your orthopedic surgeon will suggest a knee revision surgery, where it will remove parts or the totality of the prosthesis and replace it with a new one. This video will help you understand the whole process.
