What is the difference between conventional and Custom Fit total knee replacement?
Conventional knee replacement surgery requires that all of the surgeons most important measurements and calculations be made during surgery while you are under anesthesia, and your surgeon has opened your knee. With Custom Fit Total Knee replacement technology, measurements and calculations are made with preoperative MRI Shape-Matching, before you enter the operating room. Again, this means more accuracy, less time under anesthesia, faster surgerywhich may lessen the risk of infection.
