Joint Replacement

Revision Hip and Knee Replacement

When an already replaced joint fails either due to wear and tear after many years, infection, injury or some other problem, the joint needs to be replaced. This is known as revision joint replacement. This is much more difficult and complex compared to a primary joint replacement. These procedures require careful planning and preparation, specialized tools and implants (Prosthesis). These specialized implants are expensive and the procedures are done only by surgeons who have considerable experience in joint replacement surgery.
