WHAT IS KNEE ANATOMY
The meaning of knee replacement, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure in which a damaged or diseased knee joint is replaced with an artificial prosthesis. The primary goal of knee replacement is to relieve pain, improve mobility, and restore function in individuals with severe knee conditions that have not responded to non-surgical treatments.
The knee joint is a complex hinge joint that connects the femur (thigh bone) to the tibia (shin bone). It is surrounded by ligaments, tendons, and cartilage, which provide stability and cushioning. However, conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or knee injuries can lead to significant damage, causing chronic pain, stiffness, and limited mobility.
During knee replacement surgery, the damaged portions of the knee joint, including the ends of the femur and tibia, are removed. These surfaces are then replaced with artificial components made of metal alloys, high-grade plastics, or ceramics. The artificial components mimic the shape and function of a natural knee joint, allowing for improved joint movement and reduced pain.
Knee replacement can be partial (replacing only one side of the knee joint) or total (replacing both sides of the knee joint). The choice of partial or total knee replacement depends on the extent of the damage and the individual's specific condition.
By replacing the damaged joint surfaces with artificial components, knee replacement surgery aims to alleviate pain, improve joint stability, and enhance overall quality of life. It enables individuals to engage in activities with reduced discomfort and regain functionality in their knees. Rehabilitation and physical therapy are usually prescribed after the surgery to aid in the recovery process and optimize the results of the knee replacement.

Before undergoing knee replacement surgery, there are several things you can do to prepare for the procedure. We will assess your medical history, conduct a physical exam, and order imaging tests, such as X-rays and MRI scans, to evaluate the condition of your knee joint.
