Total Knee Replacement Surgery
Total Knee replacement surgery (TKR) replaces parts of injured or worn-out knee joints. The TKR can help ease pain and make the knee work better. During the surgery, damaged bone and cartilage are replaced with bio-compatible artificial materials.
​
To decide whether a TKR is right for you, a surgeon checks your knee's range of motion, stability, and strength. X-rays help show the extent of damage.
​
The right artificial joints and surgical techniques for you depend on your age, weight, activity level, knee size and shape, and overall health.
