Frequently Asked Question
Typically, plastic or metal implants are used during total knee replacement (TKR) surgery. At Surana Hospital, we also provide options for Cobalt-Chromium knee replacement metal implants, as well as specially coated implants like Titanium, Titanium Niobium Nitride, Oxinium and Gold. The gold coating benefits people with metal allergies. Types of TKR implants needed can be suggested by the doctor based on the patient’s conditions, age and requirements.
You may need a walking stick temporarily for a few days after your total knee replacement surgery. It will depend on your overall health and rate of recovery.
