Arthroplasty Surgery

As a health tourism agency, My Dr Türkiye facilitates access to arthroplasty surgery, performed by expert orthopedic surgeons at accredited healthcare facilities. This procedure is designed to restore joint function and relieve pain, significantly improving the mobility and quality of life of patients with joint damage. Common forms of arthroplasty include hip and knee replacements, where damaged joints are replaced with artificial components.

Procedure Overview

  • Preparation: Before surgery, patients undergo a comprehensive evaluation, including imaging tests such as X-rays or MRIs, to assess joint condition and overall health.
  • Surgery: The damaged joint is removed and replaced with an artificial joint made of metal, plastic, or ceramic materials. The procedure is performed under general or regional anesthesia.
  • Recovery: After surgery, physical therapy is essential for regaining strength and mobility. Recovery times may vary, but most patients experience significant pain relief and improved function.
