Risks of knee replacement surgery: Turquie Santé’s safety approach

Knee replacement surgery is considered a safe and highly successful procedure. However, as with any medical intervention, there are potential risks. The proper preparation, expert surgical techniques, and careful follow-up, most complications are rare and effectively managed:

Risk or complicationHow common?Prevention & management
Joint infection.Very rare.Sterile surgical environment, preventive antibiotics, and close post-op monitoring.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT).Uncommon, but possible.Anticoagulant medication, compression stockings, and early mobilization.
Nerve injury.Rare.Precise surgical techniques and intraoperative monitoring.
Persistent pain or stiffness.It may occur in some patients.Intensive rehabilitation, personalized physiotherapy, and pain management.
Implant wear or rejection.Very uncommon long-term.Use of next-generation prostheses and regular check-ups.
Fractures or loosening.Uncommon.Periodic evaluations; revision surgery if necessary.
Higher risk in overweight patients.More frequent than in patients with a healthy weight.Weight loss recommendations or, in some cases, bariatric surgery beforehand.

At Turquie Santé, these risks are minimized thanks to experienced surgical teams, modern medical facilities, and comprehensive rehabilitation programs that ensure safer and faster recovery.
