Modular knee prosthesis for primary and revision surgery
Based on a design that includes extensive size combinations, this knee system truly answers the needs of the Asian diaspora.
The Genuin Modular Replacement System is a segmental prosthesis designed for patients requiring extensive reconstruction of the hip joint and/or knee joint.
Genuin modular knee replacement implants. All prosthetic implants are limited by their self-life as they wear down over the years.
When does a person require a knee replacement surgery?If you have a painful and stiff knee replacement surgery and you cannot perform even the simplest of activities, and you have tried other treatments, but they don’t seem to work, then your doctor may consider a knee replacement surgery.
Most people who are above 50 years and have severe osteoarthritis have to undergo this surgery.What happens in knee replacement surgery?You will first be given general anesthesia which will put you to sleep temporarily, or you will be given spinal or epidural anesthesia where you will feel numb below the waist.
Then an 8 to 12-inch cut will be made in front of the knee.
The part of the joint which is damaged will then be removed from the surface of the bones, and the surfaces will be shaped so that it can hold plastic or a metal artificial joint.
The artificial joint is then attached to the thigh bone, knee cap, and shin.
Less tissue is damaged in the smaller, less invasive approach, and this allows the surgeon to work between the fibers of the quadriceps muscles instead of making an incision through the tendon.
The new technology is advanced in the way orthopaedic surgeons perform partial knee replacement.
The system works in conjunction with the surgeon’s skilled hands to achieve the precise positioning of the knee implant based on each patient’s unique Anatomy.
This added level of accuracy and can help to improve the function, feel and potential longevity of the partial knee implant.
