MIS Knee Replacement in Delhi, India

Minimal Invasive Knee Replacement (MIS Knee Replacement)

Knee replacement surgery is traditionally performed in older patients and is often associated with pain, bleeding, and prolonged physiotherapy. Many patients are understandably apprehensive about this procedure because conventional techniques involve cutting through the quadriceps—the largest muscle of the body—which can result in significant post-operative discomfort and delayed recovery.

MIS Knee Replacement Technique
At Minomax, we use a minimal invasive surgical approach called the subvastus technique. Unlike conventional methods, the quadriceps muscle is not cut. Instead, the muscle is gently slid to the side during surgery and allowed to return to its natural position after the procedure. This preserves muscle strength, reduces bleeding, and significantly lowers post-operative pain.

Because the quadriceps is preserved, patients experience a shorter and more comfortable rehabilitation period. Physiotherapy duration is reduced, allowing patients to regain mobility and strength faster. This approach has encouraged both surgeons and patients to adopt MIS techniques wherever feasible, especially in elderly patients who benefit from reduced surgical trauma.

MIS knee replacement is therefore recommended for patients where a minimal invasive approach is possible, providing faster recovery, less pain, and better overall outcomes.
