Leading-edge clinical solutions for lasting joint health.
Knee microplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to address early-stage knee arthritis or localized cartilage damage.
It involves the use of small implants or resurfacing techniques to restore knee function while preserving as much natural bone and tissue as possible.
Unlike total knee replacement, which replaces the entire knee joint, microplasty focuses only on the affected area, maintaining healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments. This leads to faster recovery, less pain, and more natural knee movement.
Ideal candidates include individuals with early to moderate knee arthritis affecting a specific area, persistent pain limiting mobility but not requiring full replacement, and active lifestyles seeking quicker recovery with minimal intervention.
Benefits include minimally invasive surgery, preservation of natural knee structure, quicker recovery, reduced pain, and improved knee function compared to total knee replacement.
Recovery is generally faster than traditional knee replacement. Most patients begin walking within 1–2 weeks, resume light activities in 3–6 weeks, and achieve full recovery in a few months.
With proper care, knee microplasty can last 15–20 years. However, if arthritis progresses, a total knee replacement may be needed in the future.
