Technically, your knee is not comprised of just one bone. It's a joint, which allows movement. The femur and then the tibia and fibula meet under the kneecap, which is known as the patella.
There are arteries, veins and nerves that are located alongside and on top of the knee joint. If these are injured in any way, it is a surgical emergency, and could possibly lead to death. The purpose of the patella is to protect the arteries, veins and nerves, and in turn, protecting a person's life.
