 Hi everyone. This is Dr. Rajesh Yenivas. I'm a consultant orthopedic surgeon in Manipal Hospital, Perthudham. I'm specialized in joint replacements and sports medicine. We do all joint replacements, mainly the knee, hip, shoulder and elbow. And sports medicine is a specialization in orthopedics, which deals with ligament and muscle injuries in all the joints. Partial knee replacements. This is one thing which has been recently developed. Here we do only part specific knee replacement. We don't address the complete knee as we do in total knee replacement. Only the part of the knee which has been worn out as will be addressed. Here this surgery will be done especially in the young patients below 65 years. The advantage of this is the nativity of the knee joint will be maintained. The resume to the work will be very fast. The recovery will be very fast compared to the total knee joint replacement. The patient will be very happy because the nativity of the knee joint will be preserved. The complications of this surgery is very less compared to the total joint knee replacement. And the main thing what the patient asks is about the duration, the durability of the implant. The life of this will also come around 16 to 19 years. So when we revising the partial knee to a total knee replacement later will be much easier compared to replacing a total knee in a previously done total knee joint replacement.
