Partial Knee Osteoarthritis
Partial Knee Osteoarthritis affects only one compartment of the knee. In early cases, Osteotomy of the Knee (HTO/DFO) may help delay replacement.
When degeneration remains limited to one side, Partial Knee Replacement (UKR) may be ideal.
Progression to multi-compartment disease may require TKR.
