Broken Prosthetic Knee Joint In Leg Of A Patient

Broken prosthetic knee joint. Close-up of the knee of a patient showing a broken prosthetic knee joint. The metal surface (upper centre) is the end of the thigh bone (or femur). Underneath this is a plastic surface which forms the joint of articulation between the artificial ends of the femur and tibia (the shin bone). The metal that holds these components together has broken, probably due to vigorous activity or injury. Prosthetic knee joints are used in cases of severe arthritis to relieve pain and lack of movement. Most prosthetic knee joints erode over time.

Re: Broken Prosthetic Knee Joint In Leg Of A Patient

One time I watched knee surgery on TLC and then afterwards watched a face lift. The knee surgery bothered me more. This makes me cringe >_<
