Knee
Replacement
UNICONDYLAR KNEE
ARTHROPLASTY
This surgery is
indicated in patients who have moderate to severe degree of pain but the
degeneration of the joint is limited only to one part of the joint and
the joint is stable with intact ligaments. This surgery is wonderfully
accepted by patients because it requires smaller incision, provides
quick recovery and full range of movements to the knee. You can even
sitonfloor and perform religious activities without any trouble.
