What is Knee Surgery?

Knee surgery refers to any surgical procedure performed on the knee joint to repair, replace, or address issues related to injury, disease, or wear and tear. The knee is a complex hinge joint that connects the thigh bone (femur) to the shin bone (tibia) and includes the kneecap (patella). Surgery may be recommended when non-surgical treatments like physical therapy, medications, or injections fail to relieve pain or restore function.

There are several types of knee surgery, depending on the condition being treated:

1. Arthroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure where a small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the knee through tiny incisions. Surgeons use this to diagnose and treat issues like torn cartilage (meniscus), ligament damage, or loose fragments. Recovery is usually quicker than with open surgery.
2. Knee Replacement (Arthroplasty): This involves replacing part or all of the knee joint with artificial components (prosthetics). It’s common for severe arthritis (like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis) or significant joint damage. Partial knee replacement targets only the damaged area, while total knee replacement addresses the entire joint.
3. Ligament Repair or Reconstruction: Often used for injuries to ligaments like the ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) or PCL (posterior cruciate ligament), which can tear during sports or trauma. Reconstruction typically uses a graft to replace the damaged ligament.
4. Meniscus Surgery: The meniscus is cartilage that cushions the knee. Surgery might involve trimming a torn meniscus (meniscectomy) or repairing it, depending on the tear’s location and severity.
5. Osteotomy: The surgeon cuts and reshapes the bones around the knee to redistribute weight, often for early-stage arthritis or misalignment issues.
6. Fracture Repair: If the bones around the knee break, surgery with plates, screws, or pins may be needed to stabilize them.

Recovery time varies widely—arthroscopy might take a few weeks, while a full knee replacement could require months of rehab. Risks include infection, blood clots, stiffness, or, rarely, damage to nerves or blood vessels. Advances like robotic-assisted surgery have improved precision in some cases.

The specific approach depends on the patient’s age, activity level, and the underlying problem.
