Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty with patelloplasty
International Orthopaedics, 1996Patellofemoral arthritis is generally regarded as a contraindication to unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. A retrospective review of 52 patients (60 knees) who underwent this operation together with nonresurfacing excisional patelloplasty was carried out.

Medial Unicompartmental Arthroplasty of the Knee
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2019Indications for medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) have expanded over the past two decades. Proposed advantages include faster recovery, improved kinematics, and better functional outcomes compared with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in age-matched control subjects.

Unicompartmental Knee Osteoarthritis: Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty
2020The best indication for UKA is painful osteoarthritis in an isolated tibiofemoral compartment (medial or lateral). An age younger than 60 years, a weight of 180 lb. (82 kg) or more, performing heavy work, having chondrocalcinosis, and having an exposed bone in the patellofemoral (PF) joint are not contraindications for unicompartmental knee ...

Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986Unicondylar knee arthroplasty is an alternative to tibial osteotomy for the treatment of medial or lateral compartment noninflammatory arthritis. It must be considered in the context of the other viable surgical options for treatment of this disorder. Appropriate patient selection and careful surgical technique will provide good to excellent results in

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty
The Journal of Arthroplasty, 1989Unicompartmental arthroplasty has become the standard of treatment for patients with full loss of cartilage limited to one femorotibial compartment. When the indications are satisfied and the surgical principles respected, it is possible to restore full knee function after UKA.

Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2001The idea of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) was first conceived by McKeever and Elliot in 1952 while doing work to develop metallic tibial plateau prostheses. In 1958, McIntosh reported (22) the use of a prosthesis with a vitallium tibial plateau.

Unicompartmental and Total Knee Arthroplasty
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1985Pain is the main indication for a total knee arthroplasty, and the choice of prosthesis should depend on the arthritic involvement of the joint. There is no substitute for early motion after the operation to regain knee motion. Unicompartmental replacement is valuable to preserve ligament and bony stock in properly selected cases. Excellent results can

Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty
2021Surgical treatment options for the unicompartmental femorotibial joint arthritis include cartilage transplantation, osteochondral auto- or allograft, high tibial osteotomy (HTO), and knee arthroplasty. Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) selectively replaces one of the three compartments of the knee joint. The advantages of UKA are as follows: (1)

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.
Orthopaedic review, 1988The unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is an interesting and potentially beneficial procedure that remains a controversial alternative to total knee arthroplasty and high tibial osteotomy. A critical review of the literature reveals inconsistent results using this compartmental approach to joint resurfacing.
