In cases of severe knee condition, knee replacement surgery, commonly referred to as knee arthroplasty, can help relieve pain and restore function. Your shinbone, kneecap, and thighbone will all have damaged bone and cartilage removed during the treatment, and their places will be filled with an artificial joint (prosthesis) composed of polymers, metal alloys, and premium plastics. Your knee's strength, stability, and range of motion are evaluated by an orthopedic surgeon to determine if you should have a knee replacement. X-rays are useful in assessing the degree of damage. Taking into account your age, weight, degree of activity, knee size and shape, and general health, your doctor can select from a range of knee replacement prostheses and surgical approaches. The most frequent cause of knee replacement surgery is the relief of excruciating osteoarthritis-related pain.
