When someone who has had a total knee replacement has their prosthetic implants replaced, it is called a knee revision. This procedure, referred to as a "reoperation," involves removing the old prosthesis and replacing it with a new one. While some knee revisions may only need the replacement of one implant, others—known as "revision total knee replacement"—may call for the total replacement of all the prostheses implanted during the initial knee replacement procedure. This kind of full revision is a challenging treatment that calls for careful preoperative planning, specialized instruments and implants, extended operating durations, and proficiency with challenging surgical procedures. Anyone whose prosthetic knee implant fails as a result of damage, deterioration, or infection around the implant may require a knee revision. Artificial knee implants may last a lifetime in elderly patients who have had knee replacement surgery. However, knee prosthesis may eventually fail in younger patients, particularly those who lead active lives, necessitating a second replacement in later life.
