REVIEW OF THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE 1.1 GENERAL PART OF THE THESIS 1.1.1 Definition of total knee arthroplasty Total knee arthroplasty is a surgical procedure of the knee joint where damaged parts are replaced by artificial parts [WILLIAM C.S, 2017]. 1.1.2. Functional anatomy of the lower limb 1.1.2.1 Bones The two hip bones os sacrum and ossa coxae are connected through articulatio sacroiliaca and symphysis pubica. This result in a stable ring structure which enable transferring of the bodyweight to the lower limb. Ossa coxae is composed of three parts, os ilium, os ischium and os pubis. All these three parts contributes to the formation of acetabulum in which the proximal part of the femur bone is connected
