The knee replacement is called a knee arthroplasty, which is a surgical procedure that replaces the articulation of the femur and leg in the knee joint with an artificial surface.

The most important goal of replacing the knee joint is to eliminate the pain created on the knee due to irritation and arthritis, rheumatism, or joint destruction. Getting the desired range of motion in the knee joint and correcting deformations on the knee is another use of the knee joint.

When knee articular cartilage is destroyed for any cause, joint movement is painful and the joint suffers from dryness and movement constraints. In this situation, the joint levels can be improved by improving the joint movements and eliminating the pain. Knee replacement surgery is one of the most successful surgical procedures. In most cases, the knee joint is more than 20 years old.
