FS, a dance instructor in contemporary American dance and nutritional counselor in the Martha Graham school of Contemporary dance from Colorado, USA is contemplating a return to the dance floor after years of agony from arthritic knee pain. Thanks to the bilateral Gender specific knee replacements done by Dr.A.K.Venkatachalam at the Bharathiraja hospital in Chennai, she is fast regaining her flexibility and poise.http://www.bharathirajahospital.com

Years of rigorous dancing had taken a toll on her back and knees. A back injury suffered during a dance session had altered the alignment of her right leg. Removal of cartilage from both her knees four decades back had set the process of degenerative arthritis in motion. Despite enduring years of pain, she has managed to maintain her flexibility, and zeal for the art to remain fit as an instructor and nutrional counselor. However when the arthritis in both knees started to cramp her over the last year, she wanted pain relief and to regain the flexibility in her knees. She wanted flexible knee joint replacements and a surgeon who could offer this in India. The recent availability of the Gender specific High flexion knee replacement in India came as a huge boon for her as she could get the most modern innovation in knee replacements at a very affordable cost.

She scoured the net for full bending Knee replacements and found this Indian Doctor as on of the few offering the procedure. An exchange of e mails followed and Franca flew in to Chennai two days of the American Independence Day. Three days later she received a painless Gender specific knee in her right knee. Two weeks later, when she had gained some strength and flexibility, she chose to have the other knee also replaced.

“Her fitness, flexibility and knowledge of nutrition are amazing” says Dr.A.K.Venkatachalam, the surgeon who performed the operations. She has a passion for the arts and life. “Her dietary habits and rigorous exercise have helped her to maintain her fitness and it is only appropriate that she gets back the much desired flexibility in her operated knees, says Dr.Venkatachalam. Incidentally this Doctor is the first Indian surgeon to have launched the gender specific knee replacement in South India a couple of months back. This was possible through the Gender specific knee implant or prosthesis.

The Gender specific knee is a special implant designed specifically to the shape of the female anatomy and confers full flexibility after a total knee replacement in women unlike a general Uni sex prosthesis which could stuff the knee and cause pain from pressure on the tendons. An additional advantage was that her knee cap could track in the anatomical fashion enabling her to stand on tip toe for dance movements.

Strongly motivated women like Franca who desire full function will enjoy the full benefits of this modern implant.

Franca is very upbeat after her operation and plans to make a comeback to the dance floor and also learn to play the Cello.
