performed by taking into consideration the condition of the damaged cartilage and bone structure and the patient&#8217;s history. It is aimed to eliminate pain and limitation of movement by placing metal and plastic parts instead of the part removed from the knee. In the light of this information, the applicable knee prosthesis types are:<\/p><ol><li><strong> Total Knee Prosthesis:<\/strong> The most common type of prosthesis, where the entire damaged structure is removed. Total knee prosthesis is used in severely damaged patients where all other treatment methods have not worked.<\/li><\/ol><ul><li>It is an ideal solution for patients who have exhausted all other treatment methods and have severe damage.<\/li><li>It provides great relief to patients suffering from knee pain during daily activities and even during rest and sleep.<\/li><li>Significantly improves mobility and quality of life.<\/li><\/ul><ol start=\"2\"><li><strong> Partial Knee Prosthesis<\/strong>: Also known as Half Knee Prosthesis, this surgery is a type of prosthesis in which only part of the knee joint is replaced. Usually only the damaged part of the cartilage is replaced. It allows for a less invasive surgery and the recovery process is faster.<\/li><\/ol><ul><li>The postoperative recovery process is faster than total knee prosthesis. Patients can return to their daily activities in a shorter time.<\/li><li>The pain felt after surgery is less than total knee prosthesis. This allows patients to have a more comfortable recovery process.<\/li><li>There is less blood loss during surgery. This means less risk and faster recovery for patients.<\/li><li>Patients are discharged from the hospital in a shorter time compared to total knee prosthesis.<\/li><li>The bones, cartilage and ligaments in the healthy parts of the knee are protected.

Although we do not consider it a risky surgical procedure, knee replacement surgery involves risks as much as any other surgery. Some potential risks of knee replacement surgery include:<\/p><ul><li>Infection: As with every surgical procedure, knee replacement surgery carries the risk of infection. This may occur if the surgical site becomes infected and may require additional treatment.<\/li><li>Bleeding and clot formation: Bleeding may occur during or after surgery and there is a risk of clot formation. This can cause circulation problems or pulmonary embolism.<\/li><li>Loss of joint mobility: After knee replacement surgery, some patients may have restrictions in joint mobility. This can usually be prevented with proper rehabilitation and physiotherapy.<\/li><li>Prosthesis loosening or wear: The prosthesis may wear or loosen over time, which may necessitate additional surgeries.<\/li><li>Nerve or vascular damage: Nerves or vessels may be damaged during surgery, causing loss of sensation, numbness, or blood circulation problems.<\/li><\/ul><p>As MSM Clinic, we carefully evaluate the health status of our patients, explain the risks before surgery and create the most appropriate treatment plan for each patient. We work meticulously to provide all the information our patients need before and after surgery and to minimize possible post-operative complications.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a613e1d elementor-mobile-align-justify elementor-widget__width-auto elementor-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"1a613e1d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dpopup%3Aopen%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NzA3NiwidG9nZ2xlIjpmYWxzZX0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">More Information<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-290302ea elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"290302ea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"5\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What Should Be Considered After <b>Knee Replacement Surgery?<\/b><\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-306c022e elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"306c022e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As MSM Clinic, we have identified some important points that you should follow for a fast and healthy recovery process after knee prosthesis surgery.
