Knee is basically made up of femur (thighbone connecting hip to the knee), tibia (shinbone connecting knee to ankle) and patella (kneecap - a small bone in front of knee and riding on knee joint as knee bends).
Knee revision surgery is more prevalent in today's date because of increased activity levels, an increase in life expentancy and other demographics related to this procedure. As it is a complex procedure, Knee revision surgery is performed by orthopedic surgeons who are MD and have undergone specialized training in this form of surgical treatment of disorders related to musculoskeletal system. The surgeon also takes risk factors into account while assessing failed knee prosthesis.
Some of the reasons for Revision Joint Replacement Surgery include:
· Pain in knee joints
· Plastic (polyethylene) wear down
· Instability of the knee
· Loosening of femoral, tibial or patella implant
· Infections that may show in form of swelling or acute fever
· Osteolysis (bone loss) that occurs due to particles released into knee joints which in turn destroy the bones
Further, some of the identified factors that have increased a patient's risk of requiring revision surgery include:
· Age factor as younger more active patients experience rapid wear out of knee prostheses in comparison to older ones
· Concurrent diseases
· Any form of arthritis
· Surgical complications faced during primary knee operation
