Partial Knee Replacement
In unicompartmental knee replacement (also called “partial” knee replacement) only a portion of the knee is resurfaced with metal and plastic components. This procedure is an alternative to total knee replacement for patients whose disease is limited to just one area of the knee.
There are a range of treatments for knee osteoarthritis and your doctor will discuss with you the options that will best relieve your individual osteoarthritis symptoms.
Total Knee Replacement
In total knee replacement surgery, the entire knee is resurfaced with metal and plastic components due to severe arthritis or injury.
Total knee replacement is ideal for individuals who have exhausted all non-surgical measures are having a hard time performing simple activities, such as walking or climbing stairs. Some people may even experience pain while lying or sitting down.
revision
Total knee replacement is a highly successful procedure. Over time however, a knee replacement may fail for a variety of reasons. If your experience pain, swelling, stiffness or instability, your physician may recommend that you have a second surgery, or a “revision total knee replacement.” In this procedure, the physician removes some or all of the parts of the original prosthesis and replaces them with new ones.
