Minimally Invasive Total Knee Replacement (TKR)
Minimally Invasive Total Knee Replacement is a modern technique where the knee joint is replaced through smaller incisions and careful soft tissue handling. The aim is to reduce pain, support faster rehabilitation, and restore mobility.
TKR is recommended when arthritis affects multiple compartments and daily activities become difficult. Implant alignment, ligament balance, and physiotherapy are key to long-term success.
In complex arthritis cases, robotic assistance may be considered Robotic Total Knee Replacement.
