Common Reasons for Revision Surgery
Revision hip and knee replacement surgeries are necessary for various reasons, including:
- Implant Loosening: Over time, the bond between the bone and the implant can weaken, leading to pain and instability.
- Infection: Infections around the implant area can cause severe complications, necessitating revision surgery to remove and replace the infected components.
- Implant Wear and Tear: Prosthetic components may wear out or break down over time, requiring replacement to maintain functionality.
- Dislocation: In hip replacements, the implant can sometimes dislocate, causing pain and limited movement.
- Fractures: Bone fractures around the implant site can compromise the stability of the joint replacement.
- Persistent Pain: Unresolved pain after the initial replacement surgery can indicate the need for a revision procedure.
- Leg Length Discrepancy: Unequal leg lengths following initial surgery can lead to discomfort and functional issues.
- Stiffness and Arthrofibrosis: Limited range of motion and stiffness in the joint can necessitate revision surgery.
- Heterotopic Ossification: Abnormal bone growth around the joint can impair function and cause pain.
