Partial knee replacements are gaining ground as an alternative to a full knee surgical procedure..BD
Due to advances in surgical procedures and technology, partial knee replacement is becoming a popular alternative to full knee replacment in patients with knee arthritis.
A paper published in the January, 2008 Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons found more people who suffer from arthritis are now benefiting from this surgery. Previously this procedure was performed mainly on patients who were older and who lived a more sedentary lifestyle.
Partial knee replacements, also known as unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, are used to ease the pain and discomfort that accompany arthritis in the knee joint. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the United States, affecting more than 70 million adults. The knee is one of the most commonly affected joints in the body

I think it's a great thing that options for knee replacements are expanding. You know, a website I would recommend visiting for possible options is Conformis. There is a lot of helpful information on the website. They give you an implant to fit the bone as opposed to cutting your bone to fit an implant. I really recommend visiting the website.
