All the success of the knee replacement surgery depends on the proper size of the various parts and their specific arrangement. According to the current system, knees that are suitable for patients with low elevation, slightly lower than those in Asia, are prepared. The reason for this happening is that the whole system of knee operation has been developed keeping Caucasian patients in mind.
More than 50% of Asian population’s femur size is less than 55mm. (Size of the thigh bone)
People from India and some parts of Asia who have a lower level than those in the West, may be at risk when more sized parts are deployed with other available parts. That’s why surgeons should choose to prepare / make knees of shape and size that are suitable for people in Asia.
Before the maximum bendable design of the knee was prepared, the traditional knit coat of Arthroplasty was used, by which the knee could barely swell more than 120 ounces.
The people of Asia, especially Indians, need to turn knees more to perform their daily activities.
If the knee is given a maximum turn, it increases the patient’s satisfaction and its knee activation.
Asia’s bone-stock is weak, along with delay in recommendations and osteoporosis, their bones are poor quality. Therefore, due to excessive cutting of bones in these patients, many problems arise later for such patients.
Many treatment options are available for patients suffering from arthritis.
