Knee arthroplasty is a surgery for people with severe knee damage. Knee replacement can relieve pain and allow you to be more active. Your doctor may recommend it if you have knee pain and medicine and other treatments are not helping you anymore. When you have a total knee replacement, the surgeon removes damaged cartilage and bone from the surface of your knee joint and replaces them with a man-made surface of metal and plastic. In a partial Knee arthroplasty, the surgeon only replaces one part of your knee joint. The surgery can cause scarring, blood clots and rarely infections. After a knee replacement, you will no longer be able to do certain activities, such as jogging and high-impact sports.

Knee arthroplasty surgery is most commonly performed in people with advanced osteoarthritis. Knee arthroplasty can be performed as a partial or a total knee replacement. The Knee arthroplasty surgery involves substantial postoperative pain, and includes vigorous physical rehabilitation. The recovery period may be 6 weeks or longer and may involve the use of mobility aids (e.g. walking frames, canes, crutches) to enable the patient's return to preoperative mobility.
