Knee Replacement by Dr. Povilas Cesna

Knee replacement, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace the weight-bearing surfaces of the knee joint. It is typically offered when joint pain persists despite conservative treatments.

Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under general or spinal anesthesia, ensuring maximum comfort throughout the surgery.

Surgical Team: The procedure is conducted by a team of experienced orthopaedic surgeons who specialize in joint replacements.

Implants Used: We use implants which are well known in Europe and North America for their excellent biocompatibility and long-lasting durability.

Procedure Overview

Duration: The clinic stay is typically 7 nights, ensuring you're monitored and cared for immediately after surgery.

Minimum Stay Abroad: For a full recovery and follow-up, we recommend a minimum stay of 7 days abroad.

Post-Op Care: During your stay, you’ll receive personalized attention to help manage pain and begin initial rehabilitation.
