David is 10 days post-op on a left total knee replacement using the subvastus approach. This is a muscle-sparing approach that leaves the extensor mechanism intact.
How would you like to receive a new knee, then walk out to feed your horses the next day? This is what David did. This minimally invasive total knee surgery can replace joints for exceptional motion and improved recovery times!
The muscle-sparing approach where there is not any damage to the quadriceps tendon, allows patients to participate in physical therapy more quickly and usually head home on day 1 or 2 from surgery.
