Knee Replacement Surgery in Lahore

Expert Knee Replacement Care by an Experienced Orthopedic Surgeon

When Is Knee Replacement Surgery Recommended?

Knee replacement surgery is usually advised when conservative treatments no longer provide relief and knee damage interferes with daily activities. You may be a candidate if you experience:

  • Persistent knee pain that does not improve with medication or physiotherapy

  • Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or standing for long periods

  • Knee stiffness, swelling, or deformity

  • Reduced mobility affecting daily life and sleep

Early evaluation by an experienced orthopedic surgeon helps determine whether surgery is necessary or if non-surgical options are still suitable.

Conditions Commonly Treated with Knee Replacement

Prof. Dr. Yawar Anis commonly performs knee replacement surgery for patients with:

  • Osteoarthritis – age-related wear and tear of the knee joint

  • Rheumatoid arthritis – inflammatory joint disease

  • Post-traumatic arthritis – damage following fractures or injuries

  • Advanced cartilage damage causing chronic pain and instability

Each patient undergoes a thorough assessment before surgery is recommended.

Types of Knee Replacement Surgery

Depending on the extent of joint damage, different surgical options may be considered:

  • Total Knee Replacement (TKR): Replacement of the entire knee joint

  • Partial Knee Replacement (PKR): Replacement of only the damaged portion

  • Revision Knee Replacement: For patients with previous knee surgery

The choice of procedure is based on joint condition, age, activity level, and overall health.

How Knee Replacement Surgery Is Performed

Knee replacement surgery involves removing damaged cartilage and bone from the knee joint and replacing it with durable artificial components designed to restore movement and reduce pain. Prof. Dr. Yawar Anis follows internationally accepted surgical protocols to ensure precision, safety, and long-term results.
