How Joint Replacement (Hip/Knee/Ankle) is performed
Under appropriate indications, select a matching prosthesis (such as bone cement or cementless). The joint is exposed through an incision, diseased cartilage and bone are removed, the bone bed is prepared according to alignment and stability, and the components are implanted. The range of motion and soft tissue balance are adjusted before suturing. Postoperative monitoring of pain, bleeding, and thrombosis risk, and early ambulation under protection are performed, with the goal of relieving pain and improving function. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
