I have been fighting a vancomycin resistant knee infection since Baker Cyst surgery in March. I am told that I need the joint to be replaced and that Mayo/Rochester would have the best surgeons to do this. Can you please contact me via the e-mail address above.
An email has been sent to you with information regarding the Dept. of Orthopedic Surgery.
My left tibia has curved due to pagets disease now in remission,affecting my left knee. The arthritis clinic in Lincoln NE advised me to contact the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota for information concerning the partial straightening of my tibia to reduce knee pain. Thank you.
Hi Jerald,
Thank you for contacting Mayo Clinic. Please call our appointment desk to schedule an appointment with us in Rochester, MN. The number is 507-538-3270.
My 34 year old daughter grew up with Juvenile Osteoporosis and many surgeries…including double osteotomies on both knees. We have been told for years she will need both knees replaced. We tried to wait as long as possible, but we are now told there is nothing more that can be done for her left knee and it is time for a knee replacement. We know this will be a very complicated surgery and have been told not all surgeons will take on my daughter’s case. I know that 4 of your Knee Surgeons were rated in the top 26 U.S. Knee Surgeons in “Orthopedics This Week” .I am hoping I can send a recent MRI and an abbreviated medical history to Mayo Clinic to confirm one of your doctors would be willing to take on her case before we make any travel arrangements. She is in a great deal of pain and if you could tell me where to send the information I would be very grateful.
Thank you for your note. If you would like to contact our Orthopedic Department, you can fill out an appointment request online at http://www.mayoclinic.org/orthopedicsurgery-rst or you can call for more information, the Central Appointment Office at 507-538-3270 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Central time, Monday through Friday.
I had a total knee replacement two years ago as a result of arthritis damage. The knee has been consistently and debilitatingly painful ever since. The pain is particularly noticeable on going up or down stairs. I have finally returned to the surgeon who has completed a full range of scans and tells me that the scans show no operation-related cause but that the pain could be caused by a trapped nerve. But the pain is very specific and localised to my knee and to movements of my knee. The trapped nerve theory just does not feel right. Can you give me some outline advice. Since I am resident in the UK it would take more than a “Please contact us” response to get me to visit so can your team respond with somewhat fuller advice. For example: what is the prognosis for remedial surgery in such a case?
Thank you for the interest.
