Our Knee replacement Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Knee replacement, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Knee Arthroscopy

A minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems in the knee joint by inserting a small camera and instruments through tiny incisions.

Pros: Offers quicker recovery times than open surgery, with fewer complications. Studies show up to 80% success in treating meniscal tears.

Cons: Limited to minor repairs and may not address severe arthritis. There's a 10-20% chance of needing further surgery.

Effectiveness: Effective in 70-90% of cases for relieving pain and improving function.

Duration: 1-2 hours

Recovery: 1-6 weeks

Best for: Meniscal tears, loose fragments, and mild to moderate cartilage damage.

Prices: Cost of Knee Arthroscopy in Costa Rica from $7000

Knee MAKOplasty

Knee MAKOplasty is a minimally invasive knee surgery using robotic assistance to ensure precise implant placement.

Pros: Provides more precision than traditional knee surgery, with a 90% success rate in pain reduction. Minimally invasive, leading to smaller incisions and less scarring.

Cons: Requires specialized equipment and training, which may not be available in all facilities. Longer learning curve for surgeons compared to traditional methods.

Effectiveness: 98% accuracy in implant positioning, enhancing joint function and longevity.

Duration: 2-3 hours

Recovery: 4-6 weeks

Best for: Patients with osteoarthritis affecting one or two knee compartments. Suitable for individuals seeking faster recovery.

Prices: Cost of Knee MAKOplasty in Costa Rica from $14000

Unicompartmental (partial) knee replacement

This procedure involves replacing only one compartment of the knee joint, preserving more of the patient's natural bone and ligaments.

Pros: Retains more natural knee function with 85% of patients reporting a more natural feel compared to total knee replacement. Smaller incision results in quicker recovery.

Cons: Not suitable for patients with severe arthritis affecting multiple compartments. Revision rate is higher, with about 10% needing further surgery within 10 years.

Effectiveness: 10-year survival rate is approximately 85%.

Duration: 1-2 hours.

Recovery: 3-6 months.
