orthopedic revision surgery

Orthopedic revision surgery is a procedure to replace or fix a previous joint or bone implant that has failed, become loose, infected, or worn out over time. It involves carefully removing the old implant, addressing any underlying issues, and installing a new device to restore function and alleviate pain. This type of surgery is often more complex than initial procedures because of scar tissue or changes in bone and soft tissues. Its goal is to improve mobility, stability, and comfort for the patient, helping them return to daily activities with improved quality of life.
