Creating a knee joint replacement guide

knee joint replacement surgery (known as knee arthroplasty) is one of the most common orthopedic procedures worldwide. In this surgery, which can be either total or partial, the damaged articular surface is removed and replaced with an artificial joint. This procedure alleviates pain and restores range of motion for patients who have lost it.

During knee replacement surgery, two guides are used to place four pins in the bone. Ultimately, using these four pins, the cutting guide is placed on the bone, and the necessary cuts are made to locate the artificial joint on the bone.

Artificial joints are available in various sizes. A tool called a sizer is used to determine the size of the prosthesis needed for each patient.

In cases where the patient’s bone deformity is severe or there are pre-existing screws and plates on the bone, the knee replacement guide produced by Fanavaran Jarahyar Sharif Company, by shortening the duration of the surgery, not only provides the location of the pins needed to make the cut on the bone but also the size of the prosthesis needed for each patient.

This guide is made specifically for each patient and according to the anatomy of each patient’s bone. After sterilization, it is provided to the surgeon in the operating room.

The features of this guide include:

1-Complete compatibility with the patient’s anatomy
2-Shortening the duration of surgery
3-Precise determination of the pin locations on the bone
The knee replacement guide produced by Fanavaran Jarahyar Sharif Company is made of biocompatible materials and is sterilized before use in the operating room. Therefore, using this guide is harmless to the human body and does not cause allergies or infections.
