About Knee Replacement (Total)
Total knee replacement (arthroplasty) replaces the damaged surfaces of the knee joint with metal and plastic components. It is recommended for severe osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis that has not responded to conservative treatment.
Duration
1–2 hours
Recovery
6–12 weeks (walking), 3–6 months (full recovery)
Anaesthesia
general
Setting
inpatient
What to expect
Under general or spinal anaesthesia, the surgeon removes damaged cartilage and bone from the knee and implants an artificial joint. Surgery takes 1–2 hours. A hospital stay of several days is usual, and physiotherapy starts soon after surgery.
