Mr Graham Keene

I have been a Consultant in Orthopaedic and Trauma surgery in Cambridge for 28 years and have 35 years experience in Orthopaedic Surgery. My clinical practice at Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital is similar to my NHS practice in Cambridge at Addenbrooke's Hospital, which involves hip and knee joint surgery and adult trauma care.

My main areas of interest are young and mature adult hip and knee pain. I undertake primary and revision hip and knee joint replacement surgery, hip resurfacing, arthroscopic (keyhole) knee surgery and trauma surgery. I have undertaken some over 5,500 hip replacement procedures.

For primary hip replacement surgery, I favour a cemented Exeter femoral stem (which has very long clinical follow-up) and either a cemented or uncemented socket (hybrid replacement). For revision surgery, I favour impaction bone allografting when bone quality is poor and additional reconstruction if required for the acetabulum (socket), and then a long cemented or uncemented stem in the femur (thigh bone). For resurfacing I use the Adept Hip (all-metal cobalt and chromium) or the ReCerf Hip (all-ceramic).

My practice in knee surgery includes arthroscopic surgery, for meniscal tears and early osteoarthritis, and joint replacement surgery. I favour a cemented knee replacement, typically the Genesis 2 or Triathlon knee, which have been used for many years. I also undertake adult trauma management, for patients with fractures around the hip.

To improve accuracy and reproducibility, I use the Stryker MAKO robot when appropriate for primary hip replacement surgery.

After training in the UK, I spent a year working in a dedicated lower limb joint replacement unit in Adelaide, South Australia. I have substantial experience with cemented and uncemented primary and revision hip replacement surgery for various hip conditions, including hip resurfacing.
