Partial Knee Replacement

What is partial knee replacement?

Your knee has three compartments. When arthritis affects only one, a partial (unicompartmental) replacement resurfaces just that part and keeps the healthy bone, cartilage and ligaments.

Why choose it?

• Smaller incision and less blood loss
• Knee feels more natural afterwards
• Shorter hospital stay, usually 24 hours
• Quicker recovery and better range of motion

Am I suitable?

• Arthritis limited to one side of the knee
• Ligaments are intact and the knee is stable
• Reasonable range of motion and no major deformity

Recovery

You walk on the day of surgery. Most patients return to daily activities within 3 to 4 weeks, and the knee feels natural by around 6 weeks.
