More about resurfacing.

What is TrueKnee?

TrueKnee Resurfacing replaces worn joint surfaces with implants. Your surgeon uses your individual anatomy to plan the reconstruction, aiming to restore the joint lines that existed before arthritis. Your health, supporting tissues and goals help determine the right plan for you.

Resurfacing versus replacement, explained →
Will my knee feel natural and let me return to the activities I enjoy?

TrueKnee puts your goals at the center of the conversation. Resurfacing aims to rebuild worn joint surfaces. How your knee feels and which activities you can return to depend on your health, surgery, and recovery. Results vary. Every knee replacement carries risks, including infection, blood clots, stiffness and the possibility of further surgery.

Is resurfacing a knee replacement?

Yes. Resurfacing describes replacing damaged joint surfaces with implants. TrueKnee Resurfacing is the surgical technique. Ask your surgeon which surfaces will be treated and which operation is right for you.

Do you have to cut bone?

Yes. Your surgeon removes damaged cartilage and some underlying bone, prepares the surfaces, and secures the implants. The amount and the plan depend on your knee and the chosen procedure.

Will every knee be positioned the same way?

No single plan fits every person. Your surgeon considers your bone shape, supporting tissues, and overall health when choosing how to position the implants. Ask why that plan fits your knee.

How is the surgical approach different from resurfacing?

The approach is how your surgeon reaches the knee. Reconstruction is how the damaged surfaces are replaced and the implants positioned. Different approaches can be used for the same reconstruction.
