Revision Knee Replacement in Nagpur – Dr. Kesarkar

Welcome to Dr. Kesarkar’s .Revision knee replacement is a surgical procedure where a previously implanted artificial knee joint (prosthesis) is replaced with a new one. Unlike primary knee replacement, revision surgery is more complex as it involves correcting issues from the earlier implant to restore knee function, reduce pain, and improve mobility.
Dr. Kesarkar is a highly skilled orthopedic surgeon specializing in knee replacement and revision surgeries in Nagpur. With advanced surgical techniques, personalized care, and a focus on long-term recovery, he ensures better outcomes for patients requiring complex knee revisions.

Symptoms Indicating the Need for Revision Knee Replacement

Patients who may require revision knee replacement often experience:

✅ Persistent pain or swelling in the knee
✅ Loosening or instability of the knee implant
✅ Stiffness or reduced range of motion
✅ Difficulty in performing daily activities
✅ Wear and tear of the implant over time
✅ Infection around the artificial joint
✅ Bone loss around the implant (osteolysis)
✅ Fracture near the knee implant

If you experience these symptoms after your initial knee replacement, consult an experienced orthopedic surgeon for timely evaluation.

Prevention – How to Reduce the Risk of Revision Surgery

While not all causes are preventable, you can reduce the risk of revision knee replacement by:

✔️ Following post-operative physiotherapy and rehabilitation
✔️ Maintaining a healthy weight to reduce implant stress
✔️ Avoiding high-impact activities that strain the knee joint
✔️ Managing diabetes, hypertension, or other health conditions effectively
✔️ Attending regular follow-ups to monitor implant health
✔️ Preventing infections by maintaining hygiene and reporting any signs of fever or joint pain to your doctor immediately

Procedure – How is Revision Knee Replacement Done?

  1. Evaluation: Comprehensive assessment through clinical examination, blood tests, and imaging (X-rays, MRI, CT scans) to plan surgery.

  2. Anaesthesia: The procedure is performed under spinal or general anaesthesia.

  3. Surgical Removal: The old or damaged implant is carefully removed.

  4. Bone Preparation: Damaged bone is repaired or replaced with metal augments or bone grafts if necessary.

  5. Implant Placement: A new specialized knee implant is placed to restore joint function and stability.

  6. Closure: The surgical site is closed and dressed.

  7. Rehabilitation: Post-surgery physiotherapy is essential for recovery, mobility, and strength.
