TKR stands for total knee replacement. It is a surgery that replaces damaged knee joint surfaces with artificial components (a knee prosthesis). TKR is most commonly used for advanced knee arthritis and severe knee joint damage. It is discussed in orthopedic clinics, sports medicine settings, and physical therapy plans for end-stage knee pain and stiffness.
