Unilateral Knee Replacement

What is a knee replacement ?

A knee replacement is a procedure to remove your damaged knee joint and replace it with an artificial one (a prosthesis) – this is made out of metal and plastic. Afterwards your knee should be much less painful and the joint should move more smoothly...

Why do I need a knee replacement ?

Over time, the surfaces on the knee joint can start to wear. This can be caused by osteoarthritis or a previous injury to the knee. Osteoarthritis is painful as joints become stiff and inflamed when the smooth lining between the joints gets damaged or wears away. Without the protection of this lining, the rough surfaces of your bones rub together as you move, causing the pain that is all too common to sufferers.

Simple, everyday things, like going for a walk or even getting dressed become difficult. There’s no cure for osteoarthritis and it can get worse with time. However, joints can be replaced successfully, improving mobility and reducing pain. You may have a knee replacement if your knee joint is worn beyond repair and medication and walking aids no longer help. If both knees are affected you will usually need two separate operations...

How we treat you

A knee replacement is normally performed under general anaesthetic, which means you are asleep during the operation. During the operation, your whole existing knee joint is replaced with a new prosthetic knee joint this takes between one and two hours. You will have a cut (incision) of about 15 cm (6-8 inches) at the front of your knee where the replacement will take place. Usually, you will stay in hospital for 4-6 days, but you may have to stay longer if necessary...

Other available treatments

Pain medication, such as anti-inflammatories, can help you to move around. Exercise can help reduce stiffness in your joint, and you may find it easier to get around with the help of a walking stick. A steroid injection into your knee joint will reduce the pain and stiffness for a few months, although this is not a long-term treatment. We may also be able to perform an arthroscopy to look inside your knee and wash out the joint with a sterile fluid, but this will only give relief for a limited period...

Before your operation

Before you come into hospital for your operation, you will be asked questions about your health by one of our nurses. Further ‘pre-assessment’ questions may be asked over the phone, or you might be asked to come into the hospital for some simple tests, such as a blood test, a urine sample etc...
