Knee arthroplasty
Knee replacement in Moscow is an operation to replace damaged elements of the knee joint with artificial ones. The operation helps to restore joint function and eliminate pain. The patient can move as before without any symptoms.
Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and severe injuries can lead to the destruction of joint surfaces and limited mobility. Endoprosthetics in a private clinic is an effective solution that allows the patient to return to his usual lifestyle.
Arthroplasty eliminates pain, allowing patients to return to regular physical activity and improve their overall quality of life. Modern prosthetics are designed to replicate the natural movement of the joint as closely as possible, allowing for proper movement and stability. The surgery is performed using advanced technologies that increase the accuracy of implant placement and reduce the risk of complications. Most patients can start moving the next day after the surgery, while full rehabilitation takes several months.

Based on the extent and causes of joint damage, the patient's age, and medical grounds, the surgeon selects the most suitable prosthetics and arthroplasty method. Full arthroplasty is indicated in case of total knee joint deterioration - both articular surfaces (femoral and tibial) are replaced. Partial arthroplasty involves replacement of only the affected joint components, leaving all healthy areas intact. Joint replacement surgery is deemed technically challenging and takes 2 to 3 hours.
Special medical instruments for bone surface preparation. High-quality prosthetics made of biocompatible materials.
Rehabilitation starts the day after the surgery. During hospitalization (5-7 days), patients start walking with full load on the operated leg under the supervision of rehabilitation physicians, practicing going up and down the stairs. The rehabilitation physician prescribes a complex of procedures to maintain muscle tone and increase the movement range. The complex may include physiotherapy, massage and exercise therapy. Recovery generally takes about 3 months.

Arthroplasty significantly reduces or completely eliminates joint pain.
Mobility restoration:
The prosthetics restore full joint function, allowing the patient to move freely and resume regular activity.
Durable performance
Advanced prosthetics can last 15-20 years provided all recommendations are followed.

What is the danger of flat feet and how to treat it?
Flat feet are an orthopedic problem in which the shape of the foot changes, its longitudinal and/or transverse arch decreases. Normally, the arches of the foot are responsible for cushioning and even distribution of the load when walking and running. But with flat feet, the foot cannot spring properly, which increases the load on the bones, joints and muscles of the legs.
What should I do if my ligaments are damaged?
Ligament damage is an injury in which there is a violation of the integrity of the fibers that make up the ligaments. Ligaments connect bones to each other, stabilizing joints and preventing their excessive movement. They are made up of collagen fibers, which give them strength and elasticity. But under the external influence of the ligament, the length of the ligaments almost does not change, so the fibers can rupture. Ligaments are damaged due to excessive stretching or sudden movement exceeding their normal amplitude. This can happen if you land incorrectly after a jump, fall, abruptly change the direction of movement or a direct blow to the joint.
