Knee Replacement:

Your knee joint is one of the largest and most complex joints in the body. The knee, also known as the memorability joint, is a synovial hinge joint formed between three bones: the femur, tibia, and patella. The knee joins the thigh bone (femur) to the shin bone (tibia). The smaller bone that runs alongside the tibia (fibula) and the kneecap (patella) is the other bones that make the knee joint. Movements at the knee joint help in everyday activities, including walking, running, sitting and standing.

This ball-and-socket joint helps you move your legs during everyday activities such as walking and climbing up and down the stairs. The hip joint consists of two main parts: Femoral head and Acetabulum.

Femoral Head:

It is the ball of the joint or the ball-shaped piece of bone at the top of the femur. It is almost spherical in shape and surrounded by articular cartilage all around. The femoral head size may range from 40 to 60 mm in diameter and varies with body mass. The thickness of the articular cartilage is about 4 mm superior and tapers to 3 mm at the periphery.

Acetabulum:

The acetabulum is a socket (concave depression) on the lower side of the pelvis where the femoral head fits into the acetabulum to form the hip joint. The ball is connected to the socket with bands of tissue called ligaments, which help in stabilizing the hip.

The femur is the longest and heaviest bone in the human body. It consists of a Proximal end, Shaft, Distal end. The socket of the hip joint called acetabulum is formed from parts of the ilium, ischium, and pubis.
