Candidates for unilateral knee replacement typically have severe knee pain, stiffness, and limited mobility due to conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or injury. The decision to undergo knee replacement surgery is based on multiple factors, including the severity of symptoms and the impact on daily activities.

During the surgery, the damaged bone and cartilage are removed from the knee joint. The ends of the thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia) are then reshaped to fit the prosthetic components. The artificial joint, made of metal and plastic, is then attached to the bone with cement or through a press-fit technique.
