Knee replacement Knee replacement, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace the weight- bearing surfaces of the knee joint to relieve pain and disability. It is most commonly performed for osteoarthritis, and also for other knee diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. Risk in surgery: - Knee replacement surgery, like any surgery, carries risks. They include: • Infection • Blood clots in the leg vein or lungs • Heart attack • Stroke • Nerve damage
The replacement knee joint may become loose, be dislodged, or may not work the way it was intended. The joint may have to be replaced again in the future. Nerves or blood vessels in the area of surgery may be injured, resulting in weakness or numbness. The joint pain may not be relieved by surgery. There are different types of knee replacement which includes: -
Total knee replacement- The replacement knee joint may become loose, be dislodged, or may not work the way it was intended. The joint may have to be replaced again in the future.Nerves or blood vessels in the area of surgery may be injured, resulting in weakness.
Partial knee replacement – only affected part of knee is been replaced. Bilateral knee replacement - both the knees are replaced at same time. During surgery: - During the procedure, the surgeon will remove bone and diseased cartilage from where your thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia) meet at your knee joint. Those surfaces are then replaced with a metal implant. A piece of special plastic is normally used to replace the backside of the kneecap and finally, this same plastic material is placed in between the two metal parts. This gives both bones of your knee joint smooth surfaces again so they can flex and bend more freely and painlessly.
Parts of knee: - The knee consists of the following: Tibia. This is the shin bone or larger bone of the lower leg. Femur. This is the thighbone or upper leg bone. Patella. This is the kneecap. Cartilage. A type of tissue that covers the surface of a bone at a joint. Cartilage helps reduce the friction of movement within a joint. Synovial membrane. A tissue that lines the joint and seals it into a joint capsule. The synovial membrane secretes synovial fluid (a clear, sticky fluid) around the joint to lubricate it. Ligament. A type of tough, elastic connective tissue that surrounds the joint to give support and limits the joint’s movement. Tendon. A type of tough connective tissue that connects muscles to bones and helps to control movement of the joint. Meniscus. A curved part of cartilage in the knees and other joints that acts as a shock absorber, increases contact area, and deepens the knee joint.
