Repeat (also called “revision”) surgery is different than first time (also called “primary”) total knee replacement. The technical aspects of the surgery are more complex than the original total knee replacement, and recovery may be slower than the original surgery. However, the preparation for surgery and the hospital experience tend to be very similar to the primary knee replacement. There may be different weight bearing restrictions after surgery, as well as different rehabilitation protocols.
