Dr. Mahek Makwana, Dr. Dipak S. Parmar

Abstract


INTRODUCTION
The knee joint is the largest articulation in the body. Also this is a main
weight bearing joint of the body. The usual degenerative changes due
to advancing age most commonly affect this joint. Diseases of this joint
are alarming because if untreated it produces more and more pain and
disability, for this reason various methods of management of knee joint
ailments have been devised, but failure of conventional management
in the advanced stage of knee arthritis have brought a new surgical era
of total knee replacement. Arthroplasty is an operation to restore pain
free motion to a joint and function to the muscles, ligaments and other
soft tissue structures that control the joint.
