Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

How do orthopaedic surgeons in Turkey approach revision joint replacement surgery, especially in cases of implant failure or infection?

The approach used by the top orthopaedic doctors in Turkey for revision joint replacement depends on whether the surgery is performed in a single stage or two stages. In both approaches, the surgeon may use antibiotic treatment to monitor the patient’s blood work to determine whether the infection is still present or has been cured. The treatment usually takes at least six weeks, but it also depends on the patient’s condition.
