    Knee replacement surgery, or knee arthroplasty, comes in several types depending on the extent of joint damage and the patient’s needs. Total Knee Replacement (TKR) is the most common and involves replacing the entire knee joint, typically for severe arthritis or damage, with a recovery time of several months. Partial Knee Replacement (PKR) or Unicompartmental Knee Replacement replaces only the damaged compartment, offering a quicker recovery, usually around 4-6 weeks. Bicompartmental Knee Replacement involves resurfacing two damaged areas of the knee. Minimally Invasive Knee Replacement uses smaller incisions to reduce recovery time and pain compared to traditional TKR.

    Knee Resurfacing (Osteotomy) reshapes the bones to realign the knee and is used for partial damage, delaying full replacement. Custom or Patient-Specific Knee Replacement involves designing implants tailored to the patient’s anatomy, while Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement uses robotic systems for precise implant placement, potentially improving long-term outcomes. Reverse Knee Replacement is an experimental procedure for severe deformities. The choice of surgery depends on factors like the degree of damage, age, activity level, and overall health, and it’s essential to consult with an orthopedic surgeon to determine the best approach for each individual.
