Understanding Knee Anatomy
Before discussing knee replacement surgery, it's essential to understand the anatomy of the knee. The knee is a complex joint that is made up of three bones: the femur (thigh bone), the tibia (shin bone), and the patella (kneecap). The ends of these bones are covered with cartilage, which allows them to move smoothly against each other. The knee joint is also supported by ligaments, tendons, and muscles, which provide stability and strength.

We will assess your medical history, conduct a physical exam, and order imaging tests, such as X-rays and MRI scans, to evaluate the condition of your knee joint. Before the surgery, we recommend stopping certain medications, such as blood thinners. You may also be asked to lose weight, quit smoking, or make other lifestyle changes to reduce your risk of complications during and after the surgery.

After the surgery, you will need to stay in the hospital for a few days to recover.
