Abstract

Knee replacement is possibly one of the orthopedic surgeries with the highest success rate. Generally, its placement is due to advanced osteoarthritis in the joint and the age of the patients usually ranges between 65-75 years. Its placement helps to significantly improve the quality of life of patients.
