What is a Half Knee Replacement (Unicondylar Knee Arthroplasty)?
The Half Knee Replacement in Surat is unlike a Total Knee Replacement where the surgery is performed on the whole joint structure. In a Half Knee Replacement, only the particular compartment where there is osteoarthritis or wear and tear is operated upon. The human knee comprises of three main compartments:ย
- Medial Compartment โ Inner side of kneeย
- Lateral Compartment โ Outer side of kneeย
- Patellofemoral Compartment โ Front of the knee under the kneecapย
For many people, arthritis only affects one or two compartments, meaning that all of the cartilage and bones are intact and even the ligaments are healthy. Rather than destroying these parts too, Dr. Manu Sharma only replaces the damaged area. Thus, 80%-90% of your knee is preserved in its natural state. You will still retain your natural ligaments like ACL and PCL for a natural feel while walking, bending and climbing stairs.ย
Dr Manu Sharamaโs Advanced Surgical Protocols
The choice of the best hip replacement surgeon in Surat surgeon is critical for the success and sustainability of a partial joint replacement. This is where Dr. Manu Sharma scores above all, with more than 13 years of professional experience and a clinical achievement of over 15,000 successful joint replacements throughout South Gujarat. He has a unique surgery technique, which includes:ย
- The Signature “Minimal Invasive Technique”ย
This technique is a technique for performing surgery that is highly advanced and less invasive. This particular technique reduces the operational effects on the body as follows:ย
- Micro Incisions: The skin incision done is very minute (under 7 cm).ย
- Minimal Bone Removal: The technique involves removal of 60% less bone during surgery compared to conventional surgery.ย
- Minimal Tissue Damage: There is minimal damage to the muscles and tendons causing negligible blood loss.ย
- Next-Gen Robotic Precisionย
Next-Gen Robotic Precision is a huge breakthrough in automation made possible through the advent of artificial intelligence, high-sensitivity sensors, and millimeter engineering. This is how Next-Gen precision is revolutionizing the industrial world:ย
- Sub-Millimeter Precision: Today’s robotic arms are capable of performing complex operations such as inserting microchips into circuit boards or performing delicate surgeries using only variations of less than a hair’s width.ย
- Real-Time Sensory Feedback: These robots are fitted with state-of-the-art tactile sensors and three-dimensional cameras which allow them to feel and make adjustments in the way they apply pressure to pick up fragile objects without breaking them.ย
- Predictive AI Adjustments: As opposed to robots of previous generations that could only operate using programmed instructions, these robots have the capability of learning through machine learning algorithms to make predictions about mechanical wear and environmental vibrations, and consequently adjust their operations accordingly.ย
- Dynamic Interaction with Environment: Unlike previous generation robots which worked in well-controlled environments, today’s robots can interact precisely with moving objects in conveyor belts or changing environments.
Who is the Ideal Candidate for Half Knee Replacement in Surat?
Though a partial knee replacement has its own tremendous benefits, there is a need to choose patients very carefully. If you belong to any of the profiles given below, then you can become an appropriate candidate for this type of joint preservation procedure:Your pain and stiffness of the knee are confined to either the inner or outer part of your body.Your ACL is stable.You have a good range of motion prior to surgery, with no fixed joint deformities.You are physically active and under 60 years old or an elderly person who wants to avoid undergoing a total surgery.
The Recovery Journey: Back on Your Feet in Hours
One of the greatest impacts that comes with collaboration with Dr. Manu Sharma includes the Rapid Recovery Track. Since there is only functional injury to the tissues, recovery is much different from other types of orthopedic operations:
- Day 1 (day of surgery): Start walking on your feet within hours of the operation. Stand, bear weight, and suffer minimal discomfort after surgery.
- Day 2: Be able to climb the stairs and get ready to be discharged from the hospital.
- Weeks 2-4: Stop using any walking support devices. Patients go back to driving motorcycles or cars and start performing light duties in office work.
- Long-term mobility: As the natural ligaments are not damaged, patients easily continue playing low-impact games, jogging, swimming, and even sit comfortably in the Palthi position.
