Joint arthroplasty is an operation to replace damaged structures of a large joint (most often the upper and lower extremities) with implants that are identical to the anatomical shape of a healthy joint. That is, it is the replacement of organs, bones or their parts with prostheses. After arthroplasty surgery, patients return to their usual active life and can perform the entire range of motion without pain in the joints.

Today, endoprosthetics is the most effective technology for restoring lost movements. Specialists of the Department of Traumatology and Orthopedics in our medical center perform the following endoprosthetics operations:
Depending on the state of the joint, there is total arthroplasty (replacement of the entire joint) or partial (replacement of joint elements). According to the method of fixation, cement and cementless fastening are distinguished. There are also primary (first joint replacement) and revision endoprosthesis replacement (subsequent replacement of a worn or damaged endoprosthesis).
In our clinic, the treatment and arthroplasty of large joints is carried out efficiently and effectively, including such complex operations as like unipolar hip arthroplasty and even total hip arthroplasty. Endoprosthetics of other bones and joints and the manufacture of individual prostheses are also available. Whenever possible, minimally invasive surgery is performed.
Our clinic uses only high-quality prostheses that have passed clinical trials.
Joint arthroplasty is carried out after a thorough examination, examination by the attending physician, identifying indications and contraindications to surgical intervention and treatment of diseases that prevent surgery. Based on diagnostic data the necessary components of an artificial joint (endoprosthesis) are selected.
Before prescribing an operation, they are usually referred for the following studies:
Before the joint replacement surgery, the patient is advised to follow a healthy lifestyle, reduce excess weight, if possible, undergo treatment and get rid of acute and chronic diseases, inflammatory processes and other health problems. They can prescribe a course of massage or physiotherapy.
Before the operation, general or spinal anesthesia (anesthesia of the lower half of the body) is performed. Wrist, shoulder, knee and hip replacements can be total or partial. With partial arthroplasty, only the worn parts of the joint are replaced, with complete arthroplasty, the entire joint is replaced. During the operation, damaged areas of cartilage and bone tissue are removed. At the last stage, after the operation, the soft tissues are sutured.
The specialists of our clinic have many years of experience in using the latest surgical treatment methods and the latest modern artificial joints from leading manufacturers. The capabilities of high-precision equipment make it possible to avoid complications in endoprosthetics and achieve effective results in restoring the patient’s motor activity. Surgeons and orthopedists K+31 are doctors with extensive experience, candidates of medical sciences. Thanks to endoprosthetics surgery, you will forever forget about many years of pain and stiffness in your joints.
K+31 specialists note that the characteristics of the body’s rehabilitation period are largely determined by the patient’s behavior. If you follow the professional recommendations of your doctor, the recovery period after surgery to replace large and small joints will be faster and easier. In addition, the complexity of treatment and rehabilitation after endoprosthetics is associated with the age and “neglect” of the pathological process for which the operation was performed. Seeking help earlier significantly reduces rehabilitation time and the amount of effort spent on rehabilitation.
The recovery period after endoprosthetics of the joints of the lower extremities, especially the knee joint, in patients passes quite quickly and in a short time without the use of crutches (after a few days you can begin to stand on the operated leg). Recovery after hip replacement takes a little longer, but after 8-10 weeks of therapy you can begin to exercise. But in general, everything is quite individual for each patient. During this time necessary for recovery, you need to create suitable conditions in the house: handrails by the bed, in the shower, toilet, etc. If necessary, you can count on the help of a rehabilitation specialist.
Patients with severe protracted illnesses undergo special treatment and rehabilitation measures in the K + 31 Rehabilitation and Recovery Department under the control of our doctors. Professional interaction of orthopedic surgeons, traumatologists and orthopedic rehabilitation specialists ensures effective treatment and rehabilitation of joints even in the most difficult, hopeless cases.
During the period of postoperative rehabilitation, the patient is shown a gradual increase in physical activity recommended by the doctor, regular dressings and suture care. Due to the fact that joint surgery often affects ligaments, muscles, blood vessels, the patient may experience pain, so anti-inflammatory drugs are prescribed for pain relief.
A little diligence - and even your own, often completely forgotten gait will be restored!
