Unicondylar knee replacement

Unicondylar knee replacement, also known as partial knee replacement, is a surgical procedure that involves replacing only the damaged or arthritic part of the knee joint with an artificial implant. This approach is typically used when arthritis or injury affects only one compartment of the knee, either the medial (inner) or lateral (outer) side. The goal is to relieve pain, restore function, and improve quality of life while preserving as much of the natural knee structure as possible. We have the best orthopaedic surgeon in Basaveshwara Nagar to give you the best unicondylar knee replacement surgeon in Basaveshwara Nagar. Contact us today.

Causes:

  1. Osteoarthritis: Chronic wear and tear of the knee cartilage leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility often necessitates a unicondylar knee replacement.
  2. Rheumatoid Arthritis: Inflammatory arthritis that targets specific areas of the knee joint may be treated with this procedure to relieve symptoms and restore function.
  3. Post-Traumatic Arthritis: Previous knee injuries or fractures that result in arthritis affecting only one compartment of the knee can benefit from partial replacement.
  4. Degenerative Joint Disease: Conditions that cause localized cartilage loss and knee joint degeneration may be managed with unicondylar knee replacement to alleviate pain and improve function.

Benefits:

  1. Minimally Invasive: Unicondylar knee replacement is less invasive than total knee replacement, resulting in a smaller incision, less blood loss, and a quicker recovery.
  2. Preserved Knee Function: By replacing only the damaged part of the knee, this procedure preserves more of the patient’s natural bone and joint structures, leading to better overall knee function.
  3. Reduced Pain: The procedure effectively alleviates pain associated with arthritis or joint damage, improving comfort and quality of life.
  4. Faster Recovery: Patients often experience a faster recovery time and return to daily activities sooner compared to total knee replacement due to the less invasive nature of the surgery.
