Knee replacement infection surgery is a specialized procedure aimed at addressing infections that may occur after a knee replacement. In this surgical intervention, the orthopedic surgeon focuses on removing the infected tissue and addressing any issues related to the knee implant. In most cases, the existing implant needs to be removed and replaced with a temporary antibiotic implant. Once the infection is gone, the temporary implant can be replaced with a new permanent knee replacement. The goal of these surgeries is to eliminate the infection and restore the knee’s optimal function. Patients undergoing knee replacement infection surgery can expect a thorough and targeted approach to tackle the specific challenges posed by the infection, promoting a more effective and long-lasting resolution. This surgical procedure is designed to optimize outcomes, minimize the risk of further complications, and enhance the overall health of the knee joint. The surgeon may also prescribe antibiotics to manage the infection and support a smoother recovery.
