How interesting, Lynn. I guess I "assumed" that a surgeon would be smart enough to know this! And I know, always remember, never assume anything.
Thanks for that info - there are probably some people out there wondering if they have the right knee cap or not...... hugs, Linda ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2009 11:52 AM Subject: [TMIC] KNEE REPLACEMENTS... A couple of weeks ago I read an article about knee replacements... all I can remember about it is this: Women need to make sure their doctors replace their knees with a WOMAN'S knee cap..... that's where the problem comes in with people that have had a replacement and wind up having all kinds of problems with it....men's knee caps are different from ours. Check with your doc about this before any surgery. If I can find that article I will type it up for you all. Hugs, Lynn ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
