Total knee replacement (arthroplasty) resurfaces the worn knee joint with metal and polyethylene components to eliminate bone-on-bone pain and restore function. Cost depends on the implant brand (Zimmer, DePuy, Smith & Nephew), whether a partial or total replacement is performed, and whether robot-assisted surgery (which improves alignment precision but adds cost) is selected. Chinese orthopedic hospitals perform high volumes of knee replacements using internationally certified implants, offering all-inclusive packages at 50-70% below US and European pricing.
