A knee endoprosthesis system replaces damaged knee joint surfaces, typically involving metal (femur/tibia) and plastic (spacer/patella) components to restore movement, usually for severe arthritis, using modular parts fixed with cement or press-fit, aiming for pain relief and function by mimicking natural knee motion with advanced designs like modular or robotic systems.
