History:85-year-old lady was operated elsewhere by another surgeon 5 years back. She complained of lot of pain and it became very difficult for her to put weight on the operated leg.
Treatment:
A friend then suggested that she visit Dr. Amyn Rajani for the treatment. A clinico-radiological examination showed a failed Total Knee Replacement, with a big lytic lesion in the femur. There was a big bone lost in the lower third of femur, which caused a major defect and the implant too had become loose.
Dr. Amyn Rajani performed a Revision Total Knee Replacement with a mega prosthesis to address the bone defect.
The 1-hour marathon surgery was a success and the patient started walking immediately from the 2nd day of surgery.
