My entire left knee and part of the distal femur was removed and replaced with a titanium prosthesis. My kneecap is literally "buttoned down" to the intercondylar groove with a short silicone strap. It moves like normal, but the pain is intense due to scar tissue and other factors. Watching this video helps tremendously with understanding how my prosthetic knee interacts with the tendons and muscles.

At one point, I was so desperate & asked my orthopedic surgeon why I couldn’t just have my patella removed. I have to say that you gave a much more clear explanation why it’s beneficial to keep your knee cap! I never thought about the leverage function, but it makes complete sense! Thankfully, I was able to receive cartilage & bone grafts to my patella & femur from a generous tissue donor ❤️ (it literally changed my life!). Thanks for explaining this concept so well.

This is extremely interesting! I love your videos! Can you explain what arthritis does to the knee? My knees have sort of broken up into pieces of cartilage or bone that can be felt and are moveable. When I had it checked maybe 15 years ago they said the pieces were too big to lock up my knees but suggested knee replacements. I am still walking without those surgeries. I have lost a ton of weight which helped and now am working out my legs daily and notice I walk better and better. This sort of explains why as the muscles are getting stronger. I would be interested to know the mechanics of how arthritis breaks up that Cartlidge or whatever and what a knee replacement is?

Before I watch the video to see if I recall my biomechanics classes: It increases the leverage in the leg. Edit: Yes! I still remember! I had an awesome teacher btw. I didn't understand initially how the forces were applied. He taught me in a very similar manner as you did, only he did it with numbers because biomechanics, we used Nm to measure applied forces.

Very interesting. I’ve had 2 total knee replacement surgeries. During this surgery the patella is shaved or flattened and a prosthetic is glued to the under side. Since I’ve had the surgeries my stability is back to about 99.90% . For over 31 years both knees grew increasingly painful and unstable. I know that med students learn from cadavers and without their help hunchbacks would still be digging up corpses for new doctors.

This is so interesting! I had a knee surgery, on my right knee when I was 15, where the doctor moved where my tendon attaches to my tibia. They moved it towards the medial side about a half inch. I did notice 20 years later that my right quads are not as strong as my left, whereas before the surgery my right quads were stronger. That was the only aspect of my leg strength that changed after the surgery and years of recovery. My right leg in general is still stronger and more coordinated than my left, it is just the quadriceps extension that seems to have changed. This lesson makes so much sense. The doctor changed my leg lever!

This is the pointy part of our elbow. So instead of having a floating structure like the kneecap, our elbow complex has an attached portion.

Go get them checked out with your doc, displaced patella can actually be rectified with a few weeks of physiotherapy or surgery if your problem is a bit more serious. Then you can move without pain-such a relief! My right one was displaced by doing a long jump into improperly prepared sand (wet and not raked throughly enough) so it was like jumping onto hard concrete. Limped around for a few days then it seemed to have healed-before breaking again a few years later and requiring surgery.
