A partial knee replacement is proposed when one of the two femorotibial compartments of the knee is worn and medical treatments no longer relieve the pain and the patient’s ability to get around has deteriorated. This operation aims to eliminate the pain and restore knee function so the patient can walk unrestrictedly and participate in gentle sports activities (walking, golf, cycling, swimming, keep-fit…). The minimally invasive technique used is gentle on the muscles and tendons and spares all the ligaments thus, in most cases, enabling faster recovery and a more natural feel than a total replacement.
