Uni-compartmental knee replacement: a faster-recovering solution for end-stage knee osteoarthritis
Uni-compartmental knee replacement (UKR) is a highly effective surgical treatment for carefully selected patients with end-stage osteoarthritis affecting only one part of the knee. Unlike a total knee replacement, which resurfaces the entire joint, a UKR replaces only the damaged compartment while preserving healthy bone, cartilage and ligaments. This focused approach can provide excellent pain relief, a more natural-feeling knee, faster recovery and a return to higher levels of function for many patients.
