Note sull'episodio

In episode 15 of the Total Knee Success Podcast, we take a close look at what really happens to the kneecap during total knee replacement. You’ll learn how surgeons decide whether to resurface the patella, how the small “button” fits on the underside of your own bone, and what the research shows about long-term outcomes. We also cover how ligaments like the ACL, PCL, and collateral ligaments are treated during surgery, and why it’s worth reviewing your surgical report or asking your surgeon exactly what was done. This episode brings clarity to one of the most common — and most misunderstood — aspects of total knee replacement.
