What is Knee Replacement Surgery?
Knee replacement surgery procedure involves replacing a damaged, worn, or diseased knee with an artificial joint. It is also known as arthroplasty and total knee replacement Surgery. In this surgery, metal and plastic parts are used to cap the ends of the bones that form the knee joint, along with the knee cap. Knee replacement Surgery is usually considered if the patient has severe arthritis or a severe knee injury. In most cases, a successful knee replacement Surgery typically leads to a higher quality of life, better mobility, and less pain. Patients see significant improvements in pain, stiffness, physical function, vitality, and social functioning.

Types of Knee Replacement Surgery
There are two main types of knee replacement Surgery – Total knee replacement and partial knee replacement.
Total knee replacement Surgery
This surgical procedure involves the replacement of both sides of the knee joint. During the surgery, an orthopedic surgeon removes the damaged cartilage and bone and then positions the new metal and plastic implant to restore the alignment and function of the knee. The complete surgical procedure takes about 1-3 hours.
Partial knee replacement Surgery
In a partial knee replacement Surgery, either the outside (lateral) or inside (medial) compartments of the knee joint are removed and replaced with artificial joints. During the procedure, an orthopedic surgeon makes a small incision to gain access to the affected compartment of the knee. After that, a surgeon moves the supporting structures of the knee out of the way and removes damaged cartilage and bone tissue from the surfaces of the tibia and the femur in the arthritic area. Moreover, a partial joint replacement process is less taxing on the body than a full joint replacement. Partial knee replacement involves lesser bone and soft tissue dissection.
