What should I consider if I am thinking about getting a total knee replacement?
|

You should take into consideration your age as there seems to be a higher rate of failure with a total knee in person younger than fifty, that the total knee may wear-out over time, activity level you are at, the activity level you want to return to, other health issues you may have, recovering after the operation, cost, surgeon, and hospital.
