During a Total Knee Replacement Surgery, the end of the femur bone is removed and replaced with a metal shell. The end of the lower leg bone (tibia) is also removed and replaced with a channeled plastic piece with a metal stem. Depending on the condition of the kneecap portion of the knee joint, a plastic button may also be added under the kneecap surface. The artificial components of a total knee replacement are referred to as the prosthesis.
