Two-sided Manual Knee Replacement Surgery (Prosthesis: SMITH & NEPHEW ANTHEM) | Turan & Turan Clinic, Turkey

Two-sided manual knee replacement surgery is a surgical procedure performed manually using standard surgical instruments and equipment. During the procedure, the damaged surfaces of both knee joints are removed and replaced with metal alloy and polyethylene components. Knee replacement surgery is performed for severe arthritis and serious knee injuries, such as fractures. Two-sided manual knee replacement surgery aims to alleviate the patient's complaints and restore knee function by replacing the damaged parts of the knee with an artificial joint called a knee prosthesis. During surgical intervention, the damaged cartilage and bone areas on the surface of the knee joints are removed. In their place, our team installs new certified prostheses made of metal and polyethylene alloys, such as SMITH & NEPHEW ANTHEM. Two-sided manual knee replacement surgery takes approximately 2 hours. After prosthetic surgery, the patient is sent to the rehabilitation room, where he is monitored until he comes out of anesthesia and then taken to his room in the clinic. The rehabilitation process after knee replacement surgery begins immediately after the operation. After the anesthesia wears off, physiotherapists begin knee exercises. A physical therapist teaches the patient an exercise program to strengthen muscles at home. Patients who are well-mobile and able to walk down the hall can be discharged from the hospital on the same day or the next day. Although the recovery process after knee replacement surgery varies from patient to patient, most patients can return to their daily activities within a few weeks. Regular physical therapy and exercise after surgery can help speed up recovery and improve mobility and range of motion. After knee replacement surgery, crutches may ease movements that stress the knee, such as going up and down stairs, and walking distance may be gradually increased. Generally, patients can return to housework, driving, and traveling 4 to 6 weeks after surgery. Our team consists of professionals who work on highly complex cases and are pioneers in robotic surgery in Turkey. Our medical director has over 30 years of experience and has successfully performed more than 3,500 robotic surgical procedures. Our hospital has performed more than 5 joint surgeries not previously performed in Turkey, including robotic total knee replacement, kinematic knee replacement surgery, and Journey II XR to protect the knee's cruciate ligaments. Turan Turan is well-known and has no waiting list policy. You can come whenever you want. We only request that you send your representative your passport and flight ticket for all the arrangements one week before your arrival. Turan & Turan Hospital uses the NAVIO Surgical System, a robotic platform that uses non-CT technology to accurately size and position the implant without rods. This approach significantly reduces the risk of complications. The medical center is 1 of 4 hospitals in Turkey that use the O-arm 2D/3D imaging system during surgery. With constant monitoring and results obtained during the intervention, doctors can consider each patient's complex anatomical features. The patient can immediately receive comprehensive treatment of the entire musculoskeletal system. We treat the full spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions, from strains and sprains to limb-sparing oncology procedures, from carpal tunnel syndrome to comprehensive joint and spine reconstruction. Orthopedists take an individualized approach to each patient and can offer the best solution, including various SMITH&NEPHEW knee prostheses. ANTHEM, OXINIUM, and JOURNEY II XR options: doctors consider the joint's condition, anatomy, and the patient's needs.
