Infected Knee Replacement in Bangalore – Advanced Infection Management at Aviva Ortho

Experiencing pain, swelling, or drainage from your replaced knee joint? You could be dealing with a prosthetic joint infection. At Aviva Ortho and Sports Injury Clinic, we specialize in diagnosing and treating Infected Knee Replacements in Bangalore, offering both surgical and non-surgical solutions to eliminate infection, preserve joint function, and restore quality of life.

What is an Infected Knee Replacement?

An infected knee replacement (also called a periprosthetic joint infection or PJI) occurs when bacteria invade the artificial knee joint after surgery. This may happen soon after surgery (acute infection) or even years later (chronic infection). Symptoms often include redness, warmth, pain, stiffness, and fluid discharge from the surgical site.

Signs & Symptoms to Watch For

Increased knee pain, swelling, or warmth
Persistent drainage or pus from the wound
Fever or chills indicating systemic infection
Stiffness or reduced range of motion
Loosening or instability of the knee implant

Treatment Options for Infected Knee Replacements

Antibiotic therapy (IV or oral) for mild or early-stage infections
Debridement and implant retention (DAIR procedure)
One-stage or two-stage revision surgery for severe or chronic infections
Spacer placement followed by reimplantation in staged revisions
Multidisciplinary infection control with microbiology and infectious disease teams
