Partial Knee Replacement or "Uni" (UKA)

A partial knee replacement may be an option when only one compartment of the knee is damaged and needs to be replaced:

• Medial compartment – inner side of the knee (Approximately 90% of partial knee patients)

• Lateral compartment – outer side of the knee

In order to be a candidate for a partial knee replacement certain factors will need to be considered. Your surgeon will discuss these factors with you during your appointment.
