KNEE REPLACEMENT IN MEXICO

Knee replacement, or knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace the weight-bearing surfaces of the knee joint to relieve pain and disability. It is most commonly performed for osteoarthritis, and also for other knee diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. In general, the surgery consists of replacing the diseased or damaged joint surfaces of the knee with metal and plastic components shaped to allow continued motion of the knee.

Below is a typical itinerary for someone undergoing Knee Replacement surgery with our surgeons:

  • Day 1: Arrival to destination of surgery – pre-op consultations and pre-op tests – spend night in hotel
  • Day 2: Surgery – spend night in hospital
  • Day 3: Rest and recover – spend night in hospital
  • Day 4: Discharge – spend night in hotel
  • Day 5: Rest and recover – spend night in hotel

THE TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE

There are four basic steps to a knee replacement procedure:

  • Prepare the bone. The damaged cartilage surfaces at the ends of the femur and tibia are removed along with a small amount of underlying bone
  • Position the metal implants. The removed cartilage and bone is replaced with metal components that recreate the surface of the joint. These metal parts may be cemented or "press-fit" into the bone
  • Resurface the patella. The undersurface of the patella (kneecap) is cut and resurfaced with a plastic button. Some surgeons do not resurface the patella, depending upon the case
  • Insert a spacer. A medical-grade plastic spacer is inserted between the metal components to create a smooth gliding surface with the guidance of your surgeon

KNEE REPLACEMENT IMPLANT OPTIONS

Our surgeons are implant agnostic, they do not receive any economic benefit from using a particular brand or model and our standard surgery package includes a Johnson & Johnson DePuy Knee System. Our orthopedic surgeons have experience using all knee replacement implants and will help you determine which one is right for you. You can choose from Johnson & Johnson, Smith & Nephew, Stryker, Zimmer and Biomet. With today’s technology, knee implants last 20-25 years and revisions are becoming less popular.

If you have a preference on a particular knee implant, please let us know. Our surgeons work with providers who carry most knee implant manufactures and models. There are many different types of implants with different advantages and benefits, consult with your Case Manager and ask our surgeons to recommend one that best suits your lifestyle and bone structure.

RECOVERING FROM KNEE REPLACEMENT

Many people return to full, unrestricted activities after a knee replacement in 4-8 weeks. Your recovery will depend on the physiotherapy performed after the surgery. Recovery starts the next day after your surgery, you will be walking around your recovery suite with the help of a walker. After full recovery, you will be able to return to your daily activities and will even be able to play sports.
