We combine the proven techniques with next-generation, muscle-sparing approaches to deliver faster recovery, minimal pain, and natural movement.
Depending on the extent of joint damage and patient needs, different types of knee replacement procedures are performed at Vivaan Speciality Clinic:
Knee replacement is typically recommended for patients who experience:
Our specialists at Vivaan perform detailed clinical assessments, gait analysis, and imaging to determine whether partial or total knee replacement is the right choice for you.
In cases where arthritis affects only one side of the knee (medial or lateral compartment), a partial or unicompartmental knee replacement may be ideal.
Only the damaged section of the joint is resurfaced, preserving healthy cartilage, bone, and ligaments.
Benefits of Partial Knee Replacement:
This procedure is particularly suitable for younger or active patients with localised joint damage.
A total knee replacement (TKR) involves replacing all three compartments of the knee, the inner, outer, and front (under the kneecap) with precision-engineered prosthetic components
During the surgery:
At Vivaan, our minimally invasive and computer-guided techniques ensure precise alignment, minimal tissue damage, and longer-lasting implant performance.
At Vivaan Speciality Clinic, we specialise in the Subvastus (muscle-sparing) approach, an advanced method that avoids cutting through major muscles. Instead, the surgeon gently lifts and preserves the quadriceps muscle while accessing the knee joint.
Advantages of the Subvastus Approach:
This technique demands high surgical precision and experience, both of which are hallmarks of our orthopaedic team at Vivaan.
| Aspect | Traditional Knee Replacement | Subvastus Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Surgery Duration | Takes longer due to muscle cutting | Quicker and more efficient |
| Muscle Cutting | Yes, muscles are cut during surgery | No, muscles are preserved |
| Pain & Blood Loss | More pain and higher blood loss | Minimal pain and less blood loss |
| Post-Surgery Walking | Usually after 3–5 days | Often within 24–48 hours |
| Physiotherapy Need | Longer and more intensive | Shorter, starts early for faster recovery |
| Recovery Time | Weeks to months | Significantly quicker – within days to weeks |
| Mobility & Comfort | Restricted movement initially | Early movement with better comfort |
| Hospital Stay | 5–7 days | 2–3 days on average |
| Return to Normal Life | Gradually, over a few months | Much faster – most resume routines in 2–3 weeks |
| Cost Efficiency | Higher due to longer hospital stay | More cost-effective overall |
Most patients begin walking within 4 hours after surgery, thanks to our advanced muscle-sparing approach and guided physiotherapy.
Postoperative pain is minimal and effectively managed. The Subvastus technique ensures less muscle trauma and faster recovery of comfort.
Our approach allows you to bend, sit, and walk naturally soon after surgery, without major restrictions.
Patients usually go home within 2–4 days, thanks to our quick recovery protocols.
Yes. Shorter surgery time, faster healing, and reduced hospital stay make it more efficient and economical in the long term.
