When all non-invasive treatment has been exhausted and/or the damage is extensive, Total Knee Replacement (TKR) is one of the most successful of all surgical procedures, with a 90-95% success rate for pain relief.11 It involves replacing the bones of the knee with a combination of metal and plastic.

TKR performed with KneeAlign demonstrate several benefits over traditional total knee surgery, including:
- Studies demonstrate patients experience less blood loss17
- A more accurate and aligned knee implant15
- Surgeon has 100% control of the KneeAlign technology throughout surgery, based on real-time data
Unlike robotic-assisted total knee replacements, KneeAlign-assisted total knee replacements offer these positive features for patients:
- KneeAlign doesn’t require pre-operative CT-scan procedure, eliminating unnecessary exposure to radiation
- KneeAlign doesn’t use bone screws to affix it’s technology, so patients don’t experience extra incisions during the surgery
