Knee replacement surgery can last from1-2 hours depending on the prosthesis used and the type of fixation. cbm Christopher B Michelsen, MD, FAOA, FAAOS, FACS Col (Ret) USA Professor (Emeritus) Orthopaedic Surgery Columbia University, College of P&S
Total Knee replacement is the most common procedure for knee arthritis. Robotic surgery procedures take 30 to 45 minutes, but plan to be in surgery and recovery for several hours.
