Arthroscopy Partial Knee Arthroplasty Total Knee Arthroplasty • Early stage • Early to mid- • Late-stage sports stage osteoarthritis injuries osteoarthritis
Total Knee Replacement • Considered the Gold Standard for advanced OA of the knee • Proven long term survivorship 90% out 15 years • One of the most successful procedures in orthopedic medicine Limitations • Highly invasive • Requires extensive rehabilitation • May remove healthy cartilage and tissue • Duke University study survey reports 88-92% of women and men respectively decline hip and knee total arthroplasty when offered*
Partial Knee Replacement • Only targets diseased portion of the knee • Smaller incision than total knee surgery 1 Limitations • Optimal implant positioning and alignment has historically been challenging • Requires extensive rehabilitation • Less than 52,000 partial knee procedures in the U.S. in 2009, compared to over 600,000 total knee procedures. 2 1 Repicci , JA, et al., “Minimally invasive surgical technique for unicondylar knee arthroplasty,” J South Orthopedic Association, 1999 Spring; 8(1): 20 -7. 2 Millennium Research Group.

An overcorrection in valgus is - associated with an increased risk of degenerative changes in the opposite compartment** Severe under correction in varus is - associated with increased wear in the tibial component and recurrence of the deformity which was indicative of polyethylene wear** * Collier, Matthew, et al., “Patient, Implant, and Alignment Factors Associated With Revision of Medial Compartment Unicondylar Arthroplasty.”, Jour of Arthro, Vol 21 No 6, Suppl. 2, 2006. ** Hernigou, Ph, Deschamps, G., “Alignment Influences Wear in the Knee After Medial Unicompartmental Arthroplasty.”, Clin Orthop Relat Res., Volume 423, June 2004, pp 161 -165.
