Hip and Knee Replacement
Knee and Hip Revision Surgery
Revision surgery for a hip or knee replacement that is painful, loose, or worn.
A hip or knee replacement can loosen, wear, or become painful years after the first operation. Revision surgery is often more complex than the original replacement. Dr. Manaswi's practice includes revision hip and knee replacement, with planning built around the reason the first implant is no longer working.
Who it is for
