Patella resurfacing after total knee replacement

Posted by ladydiane @ladydiane, 5 hours ago

My original surgeon who did my knee replacement did not resurface my patella. He said it was because it was too thin( 20mm). It has been 11 months and I have continued pain. Am seeing a new orthopedic surgeon tomorrow to possibly talk about resurfacing the patella. Any insight or questions I should ask would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
