Total Knee Arthroplasty is performed when the cartilage in the knee has been destroyed or the patient cannot walk.

Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is one of orthopaedic surgery's most cost-effective and consistently successful procedures. It delivers consistent results for people with advanced degenerative hip osteoarthritis. It can, for example, relieve discomfort, restore function, and improve one's quality of life. This exercise examines the indications, contraindications, and procedures used in total knee arthroplasty, as well as the role of the interprofessional team in patient care.


In 1968, the first knee replacement operation was conducted. Improvements in surgical materials and methods have vastly improved its efficacy since then. Total knee replacements are one of medicine's most effective treatments. More than 754,000 knee replacements were done in the United States in 2017, according to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.


Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of orthopaedic surgery's most cost-effective and consistently successful procedures. In terms of pain reduction, functional restoration, and better quality of life, patient-reported results have demonstrated to increase considerably. Patients suffering from end-stage, tri-compartmental, degenerative osteoarthritis can benefit from TKA (OA). While OA affects millions of Americans, the knee is the most often afflicted joint. Articular cartilage degradation and loss are hallmarks of this degenerative disorder.
