Knee injuries and degenerative joint conditions can affect mobility, stability, and the ability to participate in work, exercise, and everyday activities. Depending on the diagnosis and severity, treatment may involve a minimally invasive procedure, ligament surgery, cartilage restoration, or partial or total knee replacement.
Dr. Brian Cohen is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon who provides advanced knee procedures in Columbus, OH. He evaluates each patient’s symptoms, imaging, activity level, and treatment goals before recommending the most appropriate surgical approach.
Knee Procedures
Dr. Cohen offers several surgical treatment options for knee injuries, cartilage damage, arthritis, and joint instability.
Knee Arthroscopy
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a small camera and specialized instruments to diagnose and treat damage inside the knee joint through several small incisions.
Ligament Repair
Ligament repair reattaches a torn ligament to the bone using sutures and anchors. This procedure may be appropriate for certain ligament injuries when the damaged tissue can be preserved.
Ligament Reconstruction
Ligament reconstruction replaces a torn or severely damaged ligament with a tissue graft. It is commonly used to restore stability following injuries such as an ACL tear.
Cartilage Transplant
Cartilage transplant procedures replace damaged cartilage with healthy cartilage tissue to help restore a smoother joint surface and reduce symptoms in appropriately selected patients.
Partial Knee Replacement (Robotic-Assisted)
Robotic-assisted partial knee replacement replaces only the damaged portion of the knee while preserving healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments in the remaining joint.
Arthritis Knee Replacement (Robotic-Assisted)
Robotic-assisted knee replacement removes damaged joint surfaces caused by advanced arthritis and replaces them with artificial components designed to reduce pain and restore function.
Patellar Realignment
Patellar realignment surgery adjusts the structures that guide the kneecap to improve its positioning and stability. It may be recommended for recurrent kneecap dislocation or chronic patellar instability.
Dr. Brian Cohen utilizes Mako SmartRobotics™ for personalized surgical planning and precise surgical guidance. During a robotic-assisted knee replacement, Dr. Cohen guides the robotic arm to remove the damaged parts of your knee and then inserts an implant to restore your knee function. Depending on how much of your knee is damaged, you may need either a partial knee replacement or a total knee replacement. If you have already had knee replacement surgery and the implant needs to be replaced, then you may need to undergo revision total knee replacement surgery.
