The knee is a hinge joint involving the thigh bone (femur) and the shin bone (tibia). Knee replacement surgery is a technique that removes a diseased knee joint and replaces it with an artificial joint (prosthesis). The most common reason for this operation is severe osteoarthritis, which causes relentless pain, joint deformity and mobility problems.
It is important to realize that a knee 'replacement' is actually just a resurfacing of the knee joint. The femur or thigh bone is covered with a metal covering and plastic is placed on the tibia so that instead of irregular arthritic surfaces, one has metal and plastic articulating which produces a smooth non-patent surface.
