Why choose Dr. Neelabh for Total Knee Replacement in Delhi
Patients considering Total Knee Replacement in Delhi typically do so when arthritis pain and stiffness limit daily life despite non‑surgical care.
After knee replacement surgery in Delhi, most people resume low‑impact activities within weeks with guided physiotherapy. Read more: Knee replacement recovery week by week.
Total Knee Replacement (also called total knee arthroplasty) replaces worn joint surfaces with medical-grade components to restore smooth movement and reduce pain. The femur and tibia are carefully resurfaced and a durable polyethylene spacer cushions the joint. In some cases, the underside of the kneecap is also resurfaced.
TKR is usually advised for advanced arthritis—osteoarthritis, rheumatoid, or post‑traumatic—when pain, stiffness, and swelling limit life and non-surgical measures no longer help.
Note: In medical terms TKR is called total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Many patients search for “knee arthroplasty Delhi”—it’s the same procedure.
Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) in Delhi
TKR in Delhi and TKA refer to the same operation. The goal is to relieve pain, correct deformity, and restore function with well-aligned, well-balanced implants. In select patients, robotic-assisted planning can help with component positioning; excellent outcomes are also achieved without robotics.
Choosing implants: Our recommendations are individualized to your anatomy, bone quality, and activity goals. For background reading: best knee replacement implant brands in India.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Daily pain and stiffness
Walking, stairs, or sleep are limited by knee symptoms.
Advanced arthritis on X‑ray
Bone‑on‑bone changes or significant deformity.
Limited relief from non‑surgical care
Medicines, injections, braces, and physiotherapy no longer help.
Ready for rehab
You’re committed to post‑op exercises and follow‑ups.
If arthritis affects only one compartment, a partial knee procedure or joint preservation osteotomy may be an option.

Knee replacement surgery in Delhi: How the procedure is performed
- Anaesthesia & incision: Spinal/epidural or general anaesthesia. A front‑of‑knee incision is made.
- Resurfacing: Damaged cartilage and a thin layer of bone are precisely removed.
- Implants: Metal components (titanium or cobalt‑chromium) with a polyethylene spacer restore smooth motion.
- Alignment & balance: Ligament balance and component position are verified; computer/robotic assistance when appropriate.
- Closure & recovery: The incision is closed, and rehabilitation starts promptly.
Implant Options
A range of sizes and bearings tailored to your anatomy—cemented or cementless fixation depending on bone quality.
Robotic/Computer‑Assisted
Helpful for planning and alignment in select cases; not required for excellent outcomes. More on robotic knee replacement in Delhi.
Pain Management
Multimodal approach (nerve blocks, anti‑inflammatories, targeted meds) to reduce opioids and speed recovery.
