Medical Conditions - Knee Dislocation

Knee dislocation refers to the displacement or complete separation of the bones that form the knee joint. It occurs when the thighbone (femur) and shinbone (tibia) lose their normal alignment. Knee dislocations are often caused by traumatic events such as sports injuries or accidents with significant force applied to the knee.
