Mrs. Babarinde from Nigeria got her Total Knee arthroplasty surgery in Bangalore with best possible methods. Read on to see what she has to say about her husband’s treatment. After few test like checking my blood pressure, my knee x-ray, some pre surgery medications etc the day for my surgery was finalized. During Total Knee arthroplasty surgery the knee joint is usually approached anteriorly through a medial parapatellar approach, although some surgeons use a lateral or subvastus approach. Osteophytes and intra-articular soft tissues are then cleared. Bone cuts in the distal femur are made perpendicular to the mechanical axis, usually using an intramedullary alignment system, which is then checked against the center of the hip. The proximal tibia is cut perpendicular to the mechanical axis of the tibia using either intramedullary or extramedullary alignment rods. Restoration of mechanical alignment is important to allow optimum load sharing and prevent eccentric loading through the prosthesis. Sufficient bone is removed so that the prosthesis re-creates the level of the joint line. This allows the ligaments around the knee to be balanced accurately and prevents alteration in patella height, which can have a deleterious effect on patellofemoral mechanics. Because of preoperative deformity, some ligaments around the knee are contracted. These are carefully released in a step-wise fashion to balance the soft tissues around the knee and allow optimum knee kinematics. Thus my entire Total Knee arthroplasty surgery in Bangalore went smooth. After my Total Knee arthroplasty surgery in Bangalore, I was kept under observation for a 24-hour period in a high-dependency ward. Adequate hydration and analgesia were essential at that time of high physical stress. Analgesia was provided through continuation of the intraoperative epidural, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia. At this early stage, I started knee movement sometimes using a continuous passive motion (CPM) machine and exercises. These were continued under the supervision of a physiotherapist until my discharge. I was discharged within two days and soon was back to Nigeria with list of instructions from my surgeon and medicine to take. As I am back to my normal life, I thank you all the medical team and the executives of Dheeraj Bojwani Group, who put their best for my Total Knee arthroplasty surgery in Bangalore. Apart from the treatment an exotic holiday too was clubbed with my surgery, wherein I really enjoyed exploring the nature and picturesque atmosphere amidst the beaches of Kerala. So in other words, I really had good time. I wish to extend my words of gratitude to my medical consultant and my surgeon who actually performed my Total Knee arthroplasty surgery in Bangalore. May God bless them all! Thank you Mrs. Babarinde
