Knee Preservation & Replacement
Key Points
80,000 knee replacements are carried out each year in the UK
Most patients are discharged around 2-3 days after the operation
Mr Hage treats all aspects of knee pain in teenagers through to seniors. Preserving function and healthy tissue is always paramount.
Nevertheless, in many cases there comes a time when a knee has worn out in some or all areas. Knee replacement is carried out some 80,000 times per year in the UK and Mr Hage uses well proven techniques and implants.
It is possible to perform a half or partial knee replacement in many cases and the Oxford Partial Knee is a high performing and safe implant.
Total knee replacement has been refined over three decades and an Enhanced Recovery Program is used with the primary aim of getting patients on their feet quickly after surgery. Most patients are discharged around 2 to 3 days after the operation.
