Internal/external fixation knee surgery is a type of surgical procedure that is used to stabilise a fracture or other injury to the knee joint. The procedure involves the use of internal or external fixation devices, which are used to hold the bones in place while they heal.
Internal fixation uses of screws, plates, or other devices that are placed inside the knee joint to hold the bones in the correct position. This is typically done for more severe fractures or injuries that require a more stable fixation.
External fixation involves the use of pins, wires, or other devices that are placed outside the knee joint to hold the bones in the correct position. This is typically done for less severe fractures or injuries that can be stabilised without the need for internal fixation.
The type of fixation used will depend on the severity and location of the injury, as well as the patient’s overall health and other factors.
After the surgery, the patient may need to wear a cast or brace to protect the knee joint while it heals. Physical therapy is also an important part of the recovery process, as it helps to improve strength, range of motion, and stability in the knee joint.
The length of recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the injury and the specific procedures performed during the surgery, but most patients are able to return to normal activities within several months after the surgery.
It is important to follow Dr Singhs rehabilitation program carefully to ensure the best possible outcome from the surgery. Overall, the success rate of internal/external fixation knee surgery can vary depending on the specific injury and the type of fixation used, but many patients experience significant improvement in pain and mobility after the surgery.
