No, you typically will not have to have your whole head shaved for shunt replacement surgery. Surgeons usually only shave the specific area where the incision will be made. This minimizes hair loss while allowing for proper access to the surgical site. Always consult with your surgeon for specific details regarding the procedure.

Is it necessary to cut the leg off during knee replacement surgery?

In Knee replacement surgery they do not cut your whole knee off but they shave the arthritic surfaces of knee bones and fixes it with knee replacement implants. During no joint replacement operation is the limb totally removed, surgeons open the affected area do whatever needs repairing & close the operation site. I know because I have a THJR. That's a total hip joint replacement, and although the ball and socket were taken apart the leg was not disconnected from my body, if it had been there would be all sorts of problems with blood flow & nerves and I certainly have none of those. I recommend joint surgery wholeheartedly for those who have no other options for mobility or pain relief.
