Knee replacement is a surgical procedure in which damaged parts of a knee joint are replaced by artificial parts. The surgical procedure is done by separating muscles and ligaments around the knee that may be damaged, and replacing it with a suitable fit for the knee joint to function effectively. The ends of the thigh bone (femur) and the shin bone (tibia) are removed as is often the underside of the kneecap (patella), and the artificial parts are then cemented into place. The new knee typically has a metal shell on the end of the femur, a metal and plastic trough on the tibia, and sometimes a plastic button in the kneecap.
