Knee Joint Replacement
Knee joint replacement is an effective solution for patients suffering from severe knee arthritis or advanced joint damage. Dr. Ibrahim Haidar, a trusted knee doctor in Dubai, performs knee replacement surgery to relieve chronic pain, restore function, and improve long-term mobility.
This procedure replaces damaged joint surfaces with advanced prosthetic components designed to mimic natural knee movement.
Who Needs Knee Joint Replacement?
Knee joint replacement is recommended for patients with severe knee damage that significantly affects daily activities. It is usually considered when pain becomes chronic and conservative treatments no longer provide relief. The procedure helps restore mobility and reduce long-term discomfort. Candidates often experience stiffness, instability, or deformity of the knee joint. A detailed evaluation helps determine if surgery is the right option.
Common conditions include:
- Advanced osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Severe cartilage degeneration
- Chronic knee pain unresponsive to treatment
- Joint deformity or instability
Benefits of Knee Replacement Surgery
Knee replacement surgery provides long-term relief from severe joint pain and stiffness. It significantly improves mobility and the ability to perform daily activities. The procedure helps restore knee alignment and stability. Most patients experience improved quality of life after recovery. Modern implants are designed for durability and natural movement.
Key benefits include:
- Significant pain relief
- Improved joint mobility
- Enhanced knee stability
- Better walking and activity tolerance
- Long-lasting surgical outcomes
Types of Knee Replacement Surgery
Different types of knee replacement surgeries are available based on the extent of joint damage. The choice of procedure depends on age, activity level, and overall joint condition.
Total Knee Replacement
Total knee replacement involves replacing damaged joint surfaces with artificial implants to relieve severe pain, restore movement, and improve function in patients with advanced knee arthritis.
Partial Knee Replacement
Partial knee replacement treats damage limited to one part of the knee, preserving healthy tissue while reducing pain, improving mobility, and enabling faster recovery than total replacement.
Revision Knee Replacement
Revision knee replacement corrects or replaces a previous knee implant that has worn out, loosened, or failed, helping restore stability, function, and long-term joint performance.
Minimally Invasive Knee Replacement
Minimally invasive knee replacement uses smaller incisions and advanced techniques to reduce tissue damage, shorten recovery time, minimize pain, and improve post-surgery mobility.
