What is the Golden Knee Replacement?

Knee arthritis is a progressive disorder caused by gradual loss of cartilage and resulting in the development of bony spurs and cysts along the margins of the joints.
According to a survey done in India, a huge population, both urban and rural, are facing knee arthritis on a large scale.

Common symptoms are pain, deformity and disability to do daily routine activities, like stair climbing, sitting cross legged or squatting.

Knee arthritis affects women more commonly than men. Chiefly due to hormonal changes after a certain age that affect the joints adversely. Obesity and Genetic predisposition also play a role. Socio-cultural habits like sitting cross legged on floor, squatting, long standing hours of work, frequent use of stairs, also contribute to the knee arthritis in the society.
Malnutrition with calcium & vitamin D deficiency weakens the bones and predispose to arthritis.

What is the most commonly performed surgery by orthopedic surgeons today? It is nothing else but total knee replacement surgery. It is a useful and highly successful procedure.

The secret of its success is the constant development and evolution that happened in the niche during the past three decades.

The surgery has become more convenient and efficient.

Today, an expert Orthopedic and knee Surgeon in Thane can offer an improved normal range of motion and greater comfort by using high-quality implants. He has a better understanding of ligaments and their work. Hence, improved stability of the knee joint can be expected.
Since the minimally invasive procedures are constantly evolving with every passing day, the rehabilitation period is getting shorter.

The recovery happens fast, and the patient can resume the regular routine early.  Of course, it means the cost of surgery also reduces.

Computer navigation, the most exciting innovation

When a knee replacement is performed using computer navigation, it helps the surgeon a lot.
The computerized system shows explicit images using high-power infrared sensing of the anatomy. The doctor can work on the exact location where he wants to put the knee implants.
Statistics say that the precision of this system is incredibly high. Thus, the short-term and long-term performance of the knee replacement significantly improves.
Computerized navigation is used in all types of minimally invasive surgeries including ACL 
reconstruction surgery.

Benefits
What makes computer navigation guidance so much important than the conventional methods of non-invasive knee replacement surgery? There are many reasons.
·         Since doctors are guided to the place precisely, the incisions and dissection of soft tissues remain at the minimal level.

·         Due to computerized navigation, the surgery is better augmented. As a result, the tendon and quadriceps muscles are greatly protected.

·         Highly accurate and reproducible bone cuts can be made when an expert Orthopedic/KneeSurgeon in Navi Mumbai performs the surgery using this method.

·         There is no need to place the rod inside the IM Canal (Intramedullary canal) when the operation is performed using the computer-assisted method. Thus, there is no possibility of emboli which means the operation is safer for patients having health risks.

·         When the surgeons balance the ligaments surrounding the knee they do it using the ‘sense and feel’. Hence, there is always a risk of error. With the computer-assisted method, it can be done at the nearest millimetre accuracy of ligament laxity or tautness.

·         In case of a significant deformity in the tibia below the knee or femur above the knee, it is not possible to use the conventional alignment system. With this method, it can be done with high accuracy.


·         If there is some hardware such as a rod, screw or plate is already there, then the conventional alignment system is not possible. In the computer-assisted surgery, doctors can do it.

Research says that despite the highest expertise of the knee surgeon, accurate alignment is achieved in 80 percent cases only. In the remaining 20 percent cases, patients do not get the best benefit of surgery.

When the computer-assisted method is used, accurate alignment can be achieved in 100 percent cases.

It is the reason, expert orthopedic surgeons such as Dr Shailendra Patil vouch for this method.

He says that a Bone And Joint Care clinic should aim for providing a perfect solution for every patient. It is possible only when the technology is used at its best.
