Lui Williams, a patient from Singapore came to India for advance knee replacement in India. Lui was suffering from knee related problems and after consulting with the doctors she had to undergo knee replacement surgery. But the surgery costs are too high in Singapore so Lui came to Mumbai in India for her advance knee replacement surgery. Getting a low cost advance knee replacement surgery along with an exotic holiday tour package was a great experience for Lui. She happily said, “had I conducted my surgery in Singapore it would take a month just to get doctor's appointment plus the expensive surgery cost. I cannot afford such expensive treatment so I got an early medical appointment for my advance knee replacement surgery in India at Mumbai.

The most common reason for needing an advance knee replacement surgery is the cartilage surface on the ends of the bones is worn away; the normal mechanics of the knee joint are altered. The knee becomes inflamed and irritated, and the damaged cartilage, inflamed tissues, and exposed bone can cause pain. The procedure for knee replacement entails removal of damaged bone and cartilage from patient’s kneecap and replaced with an artificial joint made of metal and plastic. Total Knee replacement surgery will correct the mal-alignment of bow knees or flexed knees. Following the total knee replacement surgery the wound is closed with absorbable sutures and a drain is inserted.
