A Year of Pain Ends: Successful Advanced Knee Replacement Restores Mobility for 48-Year-Old in Bengaluru

Bengaluru, Jan 30: Maiya Multispeciality Hospital has successfully restored mobility and quality of life for 48-year-old Mr. Narayanappa N, who had been suffering from severe left knee pain, swelling, and instability for nearly a year. His condition had progressively worsened, leaving him unable to walk independently and significantly affecting his daily activities and emotional well-being.

Despite multiple consultations over the past year, Mr. Narayanappa saw little improvement until he arrived at Maiya Multispeciality Hospital. A thorough assessment by the orthopaedic team led to a diagnosis of advanced left knee osteoarthritis with instability, a complex condition requiring highly specialised surgical intervention.

Given the extent of joint damage and prolonged functional impairment, the team recommended a Left Total Knee Replacement using a stem implant — an advanced procedure designed to provide enhanced stability, long-term durability, and improved functional outcomes.

The surgery was performed on 11 December 2025 by Dr. Manohar Rao H R, Orthopaedic Surgeon at Maiya Multispeciality Hospital. The procedure was completed successfully, achieving excellent joint alignment, stability, and functional balance.

Dr. Manohar Rao stated,

“Mr. Narayanappa’s knee had significant degeneration and instability, requiring careful surgical planning. A stemmed knee replacement was the most effective approach to provide long-term stability and pain relief. Our goal was not only to treat the condition but to restore his confidence, mobility, and overall quality of life.”

Post-surgery, Mr. Narayanappa demonstrated remarkable recovery. With the support of the hospital’s multidisciplinary team — including nursing staff, physiotherapists, and anaesthesia specialists — he was able to stand and walk comfortably for the first time in over a year.

Expressing his gratitude, Mr. Narayanappa said,

“For almost a year, I lived with constant pain and the fear of not walking again. After the surgery, I can stand and walk without pain. It feels like I have my life back. I am extremely thankful to Dr. Manohar Rao and the entire team at Maiya Hospital for giving me this second chance.”

Maiya Multispeciality Hospital continues to lead in patient-centred orthopaedic care, offering advanced surgical solutions that transform lives and restore hope.
