Understanding Total Knee Replacement: Pre-Op to Full Flexion

Restoring Active Mobility with Robotic Knee Arthroplasty

Osteoarthritis and cartilage degeneration cause debilitating pain that affects quality of life. Modern total knee replacement (TKR) utilizes computer-guided robotic arms to ensure sub-millimeter precision.

The 3D Navigation Advantage:

By mapping the unique anatomical contours of the patient's femur and tibia, surgeons achieve customized implant alignment. This ensures optimal ligament tension, allowing patients to achieve 135 to 140 degrees of knee flexion without mechanical resistance.

Rehabilitation Timeline:

  • Day 1: Assisted standing and weight-bearing exercises with a physiotherapist.
  • Day 3: Stair climbing training and independent walking with minimal support.
  • Day 7-10: Hotel discharge and safe flight clearance.
