Knee replacements?
I need a double knee replacement operation, but doctors in the UK are reluctant to carry this out on the grounds of my age, arguing that I would be likely to need the replacements themselves replaced twice if I live to average UK life expectancy. The doctors are working on the assumption that replacement knees have only a ten year lifespan, but I have heard of people having replacements which are still going strong after 15 years.
Can anyone who has had one or both knees replaced (or a surgeon with joint replacement experience) give me details of the type of replacement recieved, the manufacturer and your experiences since the operation. I would be very interested in hearing from anybody who has recieved Japanese titanium knees which I have anecdotely heard good reports about.
In response to Sissybug, I’m 49. Where are you from and do you know the manufacturer of your knee (hoping it does last 30 years)?
The Dr. will want to hold off based on age. I worked for the largest Knee Co. Zimmer. Look at this way. If your going to have to replace your knee in the future would you rather do it when you 65 or 75? Knees are lasting up into 15-20yrs. now. One other thing regarding Titanium knees they are good, but nothing compared to the Trabecular Metal Knee by Zimmer. Plus all my surgeons basically used it on all patients under the Age 55. Because of it’s longevity, durability, and quick bonie ingrowth which gives you the ultimate way to secure a knee. In the USA there is no Cement needed for the Trabacular Metal knee. Your Titanium kneed will most likely be cemented.. Even if you Dr. doesn’t use Zimmer products you can request it. The Rep’s are always in the room it doesn’t matter what company you use. FYI since your young, I’d ask you DR. to make sure you use Cruciate Retaining. I don’t know your condition, but based on your age there really shouldn;t be a reason to remove your Cruciate retaining Ligament.Of Course he’ll decide once he opens you up. If the extension and flexion is not there then he’ll probably remove it. BUT make sure you ask!! With your age you’ll want to use the Primary Porus Patella Trabecular MEtal. Usually surgeons will replace the Patella while operating. It’s up to them once they open the knee and see the condition. I could use 10pts.
