Did You Know? Arthritis of the knee may occur in any one of the three compartments that make up the knee joint. The inner (medial) compartment of the knee and the outer (lateral) compartment of the knee are formed by the articulation (or joining) of the lowest part of the thighbone (femur) and the highest part of the shinbone (tibia).
