Customized knee replacements that make all the difference in your mobility and ability to move freely
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, affecting tens of millions of people worldwide. It is a degenerative joint disease characterized by the breakdown and eventual loss of joint cartilage. The breakdown and wearing away of cartilage causes the bones to rub together resulting in extreme pain. OA resulting from “wear and tear” is the most common reason individuals need to undergo knee replacement surgery.
What does osteoarthritis feel like? How can you tell if you might be suffering from it? There’s a handful of symptoms that might point in the direction of osteoarthritis. Do you feel pain when: Standing or walking short distances? Climbing up or down stairs? Sitting in or standing up out of chairs? Do you feel any Initial pain and/or stiffness with activities initiated from a sitting position? Do you feel a stiffness in the knee after getting out of bed? Or do you feel a crunching sensation when the knee is used?
What can or should be done about this? One option is a total knee replacement. Total knee replacement is a subset of “joint replacement,” which is a procedure in which parts of the diseased knee are replaced with an artificial joint. There’s 600,000 knee replacements done in U.S. each year. Traditional total knee replacement (TKR) has been the gold standard solution for many decades, and makes up the the majority of knee replacements performed today. One reason why is because long-term clinical data is available showing excellent performance and total knee replacement recovery. Also, new techniques, materials and designs have made it a very successful surgery and therefore a good option for many patients. But let’s not mince words: it’s still a major surgery with accompanying surgical and implant performance risks, and significant rehabilitation commitment, so the physician you choose to work with on your total knee replacement can make all the difference to the success or failure of the procedure.
Who is a good candidate for total knee replacement? The best candidate is someone who has daily pain that interferes with their normal activities; significant knee stiffness; instability, or buckling, of the knee; or significant deformity caused by osteoarthritis (bowlegs or knock-knees).

A typical patient should expect:
Here at Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, your care and comfort are top priorities for us. So our entire experience is geared around preventing the three leading causes of dissatisfaction for knee replacements, which are: (1) Residual Pain due to improper fit and rotation; (2) Functional Limitations due to altered kinematics and instability; (3) Early Implant Failure due to poor alignment and polyethylene wear. These are most common when non-custom knee implants are used, which is why we always use Conformis, a customized knee implant that matches your unique body structure perfectly using the power of 3D modeling technology.
