I have had both replaced. Right one about 11 years ago, Posterior. It has come apart on me 3 x. Hurts like hell when that happens. Rehab was long and hard.

left one I had done 5 years ago, Anterior. Rehab much shorter and easier. Ifg you must have it done choose this.

It's not a picnic. I can not walk to the back of a big box store and back without extreme pain. I am unable to exercise so I have lost all muscle tone. But then I am 74.

Good luck to you and please shop around for the surgeon.
