Knee Replacement & Weight



Recommended Posts

This has been bugging me and I know that several people have TKR's on here. Does anyone know how much the TKR weigh? Both of mine are done. Titanium start in upper thigh into the shin bone. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis and knee bones were totally eaten away. Just curious.

I have 2 titanium knees and the right one has very long shafts going up into my thigh and down into my shin. Alas, they only add about a pound - titanium is a very light and strong metal.
