What is the procedure of total knee replacement
My sister is 28-years old and recently had an accident which requires a total knee replacement surgery. The surgery is scheduled for this Saturday and I’m curious to know the risks, preparation required and what is the procedure of total knee replacement? I’m looking forward for a surgeon or expert’s opinion.
