Total Knee Replacement

Most commonly, total knee replacement is performed as the surgical option of choice. Total knee replacement surgery has been performed for over thirty years, providing relief for those with chronic, debilitating pain caused by degeneration of the cartilage in the knee, angular deformities, or serious knee injuries. The surgery isn't even quite so radical as the name might imply - in truth, only a small portion of bone in the knee is removed and covered with a combination of metal and plastic components to form the new surfaces of the joint. With the new surfaces sliding together smoothly, the diseased bone no longer rubs together and pain is relieved. To learn more about total knee replacement, click here.

Partial Knee Replacement

A unicompartmental replacement or partial knee joint replacement is the replacement of one compartment of the knee. There are three compartments to the knee: two are located where the tibia and the femur link, and the third is located underneath the patella (knee cap). This surgery is generally considered in cases where there is pain in one compartment but the other two are unaffected. X-rays may also be used to confirm the presence of arthritis and determine if this form of surgery will be beneficial to you. Partial knee replacement is less common than total knee replacement, simply because in some cases the disease affects all three compartments.
