HIP AND KNEE PROSTHESES IN DYSPLASTIC PATIENTS
Prosthetic surgery for dysplastic adults requires tailored planning and specific implant selection due to the unique size and shape of their joints.
We offer a wide range of possibilities since we are not bound by agreements or dependencies with any commercial company. This allows us to select the most suitable implant for each case. Custom-made implants can also be prepared with prior planning.
PROSTHESES IN DEGENERATIVE JOINT SURGERY
Degenerative joint surgery (osteoarthritis or arthritis) caused by various etiologies, with or without axial deviation, is analyzed from both mechanical and biological perspectives.
- At ICATRECON, prosthesis placement enables the correction of axial deviations in three planes, reduces mechanical pain, increases joint and functional capacity of the limb, expands walking distance, restores moderate physical and sports activity, and eliminates the need for most pain management medications.
PROSTHETIC SURGERY IN YOUNG ADULTS
- It is increasingly common for patients aged 40 to 60 with a history of knee trauma to experience advanced joint deterioration for their age. This often significantly impacts their knee mobility and function. These are healthy patients whose functional capacity and quality of life are impaired by joint pain that necessitates ongoing medication.
In many cases, prosthetic replacement is the only valid solution to relieve pain, restore function for an active lifestyle, and even allow moderate sports practice, avoiding high-impact activities to prolong the prosthesis lifespan.
Carefully planned placement of arthroplasties using the latest generation of components allows these patients to achieve these goals, with an average lifespan of 8 to 10 years.
