Children’s Knee Surgery
At London Knee Care, we provide specialised children’s knee surgery for young patients experiencing knee injuries, pain, or developmental conditions. As children’s bones and joints are still growing, we use precise, minimally invasive techniques to ensure safe and effective treatment. From sports injuries to congenital deformities, we focus on restoring knee function, relieving pain, and supporting your child’s active, healthy development.
About Children’s Knee Surgery
At London Knee Care, we specialise in children’s knee surgery for young patients experiencing knee pain, instability, or injuries related to growth and activity. Children’s knees are still developing, which requires highly specialised assessment and treatment. Mr Raghbir Khakha, a widely recognised knee surgeon provides safe, minimally invasive procedures to correct injuries, deformities, or developmental issues while protecting the growing structures of the knee.
We combine advanced imaging, gentle surgical techniques, and tailored rehabilitation plans to ensure the best outcomes for every child — helping them return to play, sports, and everyday activities with confidence and comfort.

When Is Children’s Knee Surgery Required?
We may recommend children’s knee surgery when a child experiences ongoing pain, difficulty walking, or an injury that does not heal through rest, physiotherapy, or other conservative methods. Surgery may also be required in cases of torn ligaments or cartilage, recurrent kneecap dislocation, growth plate injuries, or congenital deformities that affect knee alignment and movement.
Sports-related injuries that cause meniscal tears or knee instability are also common reasons for surgical intervention. At London Knee Care, every child receives a thorough assessment using advanced imaging and clinical evaluation to determine the safest and most effective treatment plan for long-term recovery and healthy development.
