2 weeks after Minimally Invasive Outpatient Knee Replacement at OINT

Success story after Minimally Invasive Outpatient Knee Replacement surgery! This patient is 2 weeks out of surgery and walking without a walker or a cane. Impressive!
Our hip and knee specialist performed this surgery without using general anesthesia, no muscle cutting approach and press fit implants (no cement). Local anesthesia is safer as it uses less medications and avoids breathing tube. Muscle sparing approach means the patient has stronger quad muscle and recovers quicker with less pain. Press fit implants allow for more natural bony ingrowth and avoidance of cement which can fail over time. Most importantly, patients can go home safely same day after their surgery.
