Single vs Bilateral Knee Replacement – Dr. IPS Oberoi’s Approach, Artemis Hospital, Gurugram
Single Knee Replacement if:
✅ Only one knee is severely damaged
✅ Age or health conditions make safety the priority
✅ Easier, faster initial recovery
Bilateral TKR if:
✅ Both knees are severely arthritic
✅ You’re medically fit for a longer surgery
✅ Want one surgery, one rehab, and balanced walking again
Dr. IPS Oberoi’s approach:
Chairperson – Orthopedics Program & Chief – Robotic Joint Replacement & Arthroscopy Surgery, Artemis Hospital, Gurugram
He uses robotic planning to assess both knees first. Bilateral TKR is done only when safe and necessary. If not, he recommends staged single knee replacement to reduce risk.
Not every patient needs both knees done together. The right choice depends on your knees, your health, and your goals.
