What is Primary and Revision Hip and Knee Arthroplasty?

Primary Total Joint Arthroplasty

This procedure is a beacon of hope for individuals suffering from severe arthritis. Our CONA specialists meticulously remove arthritic bone and cartilage and replace them with durable components made of plastic, metal, and ceramic. These components are expertly bonded to the bone to form a new, functional joint, offering you a chance to live a life free of arthritis pain.

Why Consider Revision Hip and Knee Arthroplasty?

Revision arthroplasty is recommended when a previous joint replacement (primary arthroplasty) encounters problems, such as loosening or wear of the implants, stiffness, or in rare instances, infection. Our CONA surgeons specialize in carefully removing the old components and replacing them with new, advanced materials, ensuring a renewed joint that can offer improved mobility and pain relief.

What Can I Expect From Surgery?

Primary Arthroplasty: In this procedure, our CONA specialists first remove the arthritic bone and damaged cartilage. Then, they securely bond the new joint components to the bone, crafting a smooth and functional joint surface.

Revision Arthroplasty: This procedure involves the removal of previous joint implants, followed by the installation of new, high-quality revision components. This meticulous process aims to restore the integrity and functionality of the joint.

What Can I Expect During My Recovery?

Recovery from hip and knee arthroplasty varies among patients, but CONA is committed to supporting you through every step. Post-surgery, patients can expect a comprehensive rehabilitation program tailored to their specific needs, focusing on gradually increasing mobility and strength. Our team provides detailed guidance on post-operative care, pain management, and physical therapy exercises to ensure the best possible outcome.

Recovery can vary, but many patients begin to resume light activities within 4-6 weeks post-surgery, with continual improvement over months.

Pain management is a critical part of our post-surgery care. With modern pain control techniques, many patients find their post-operative discomfort manageable and temporary.
