This is awesome - I dunno if anyone here has had the whole deal - but I now know SO much more about knee replacement than I used to.

Go bone saw!

Actually it looks like this is the link from the people who actually made it:

It's all animated - no real pix (except an xray or two)

I have to wait till I'm 76 years old....:eek:

I wonder if they the replacements are made with zinc?

the male nurse who walks you through it appears to have some gender confusion issues. Apparently the patient is a 76 year old female, but HIS knee is worn down and lacking cartilage.
