Knee cap joint replacement

Knee cap joint replacement

Knee cap joint replacement, also known as patellofemoral joint replacement or patellar joint replacement, is a type of surgery aimed at replacing the damaged or arthritic knee cap (patella) with a prosthetic. This procedure is typically performed when the patella has been damaged by osteoarthritis, injury, or other degenerative conditions, leading to chronic pain, stiffness, and loss of function in the knee.
