Knee Replacement

 

Knee replacement (TKR), also known as knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace the weight-bearing surfaces of the knee joint to relieve pain and disability. The knee is one of the most complex joints in the body. The knees support the body's entire weight and are vulnerable to injury and arthritis.

Knee Arthroscopy

 

Arthroscopy is a common surgical procedure in which a joint (arthro-) is viewed (-scopy) using a small camera. Arthroscopy gives doctors a clear view of the inside of the knee. Arthroscopy is a very effective tool for treating knee problems.
