What are the different types of knee 
replacement surgery?
• Total knee replacement is the most common type. The surgeon replaces the surfaces 
of the thigh bone and shin bone that connects to the knee.
• Partial knee replacement may be an option if arthritis affects only one side of your 
knee and you have strong knee ligaments.
• Kneecap replacement replaces only 
the under-surface of the kneecap. 
Total knee replacement surgery has a 
higher success rate.
• Complex (or revision) knee 
replacement is for those with very 
severe arthritis or who have already 
had more than one knee replacement 
surgery.
Why would I need knee replacement surgery?
Osteoarthritis is the 
main reason why 
people go for knee 
replacement surgery. 
The condition is very 
common. It happens 
when cartilage -- the 
cushion between the 
knee and the bone 
joints -- breaks down.
Other reasons include:
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Structural problems like bowed legs or “knock-knees”
• Knee injuries
• Loss of blood flow to the knee's bones (a condition called either 
osteonecrosis or avascular necrosis).
