Successful Knee Replacement Restores Mobility to Patient at Alkafeel Hospital

A specialized medical team at Alkafeel Hospital has successfully performed a total knee replacement for a 50-year-old woman suffering from advanced osteoarthritis, in addition to hypertension and diabetes. The case highlights the hospital’s capacity to manage complex medical conditions with high precision and care.

Dr. Mustafa Waleed, an orthopedic and joint surgery specialist at the hospital, stated that the patient, a resident of Al-Muthanna Province, had been experiencing severe pain and limited mobility due to degenerative joint disease. Her comorbidities added further complexity to the surgical and anesthetic management.

"The surgery was successfully performed thanks to the expertise of our multidisciplinary team," Dr. Waleed reported, praising the role of the anesthesiology team led by Dr. Mohammed Sami in ensuring a smooth and safe procedure. "The patient was able to walk and begin physiotherapy exercises as early as the day following the operation."

This case stands as another testament to Alkafeel Hospital’s commitment to providing advanced surgical care using the latest techniques and highly qualified medical professionals.
