What is Knee Replacement Surgery?

Knee replacement surgery, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a procedure where damaged cartilage and bone in the knee joint are replaced with artificial implants. It is an effective solution for patients suffering from severe arthritis, joint degeneration, or knee injuries that do not respond to non-surgical treatments.

Types of Knee Replacement Surgery

At Gangnam Nanoori Hospital, we provide different knee replacement options tailored to each patient's condition:

• Total Knee Replacement (TKR) – Replaces the entire knee joint with artificial components for long-term relief.
• Partial Knee Replacement (PKR) – Only the damaged portion of the knee is replaced, preserving healthy tissue.
• Minimally Invasive Knee Replacement – Uses small incisions for reduced pain and faster recovery.
• Revision Knee Replacement – A second surgery for patients with worn-out or failed implants from previous procedures.



Who Needs Knee Replacement Surgery?

You may be a candidate for knee replacement surgery if you experience:

✅ Severe knee pain that limits daily activities
✅ Joint stiffness and swelling that does not improve with medication
✅ Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or standing for long periods
✅ Knee deformities or instability
✅ Failed previous knee surgeries

If non-surgical treatments such as physical therapy, injections, or pain medications are no longer effective, knee replacement surgery may be the best option.
