TKR in young and active patients

Young patients sometimes need a knee replacement to improve quality of life after suffering from arthritic knees. Recent evidence shows that good results can be obtained with total knee replacement in young patients. The issues related to correct prosthesis selection, patient counselling & surgical techniques in the young are discussed in this video by Dr.A.K.Venkatachalam of www.kneeindia.com. A Dutch patient also narrates why he is considering having a total knee replacement by this Chennai based surgeon in India rather than in the Netherlands.
