Minimally Invasive Surgery: Reducing Trauma to Your Knee
Biomet was the first company to introduce a minimally invasive surgical technique for total knee replacement. Our Microplasty® Minimally Invasive Instrumentation reduces the incision from 6-8" to 3-4". Additionally, this approach reduces the extent to which the surgeon must disrupt the soft tissue surrounding the knee. As a result, your muscles, ligaments, and tendons will undergo less trauma during surgery. This may help reduce post-operative pain, improve your recovery time, and get you back on your feet faster.
Potential Benefits of the Rapid Recovery Program are:- Shorter hospital stays
- Earlier mobilization
- Accelerated recovery process
- Less blood loss
- Reduction of scar tissue
