Bilateral total knee replacement is a surgical procedure used to treat severe arthritis or damage to both knees. During the procedure, damaged knee joint surfaces are removed and replaced with artificial implants made of metal, plastic, or a combination of materials. This replacement helps restore the smooth movement of the knee joint, reduces pain, and allows for better weight-bearing activities.
This procedure provides several benefits to people who have severe arthritis in both knees. Firstly, it can provide significant pain relief and improve mobility, allowing patients to resume their regular activities with greater ease. Additionally, bilateral total knee replacement can improve knee alignment and stability, lowering the risk of falls and other injuries.
Mrs. Rekha Rani Adhikaree from Bangladesh successfully underwent Bilateral Total Knee Replacement at Yashoda Hospitals, Hyderabad, under the supervision of Dr. Sunil Dachepalli, Senior Consultant Orthopaedic, Robotic Joint Replacement & Arthroscopic Surgeon.
