Partial knee replacement (PKR) is a valuable alternative to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for patients with isolated unicompartmental osteoarthritis. It is associated with significant benefits, such as the preservation of knee proprioception and anatomical structures, better knee mobility in terms of range of motion, minimally invasive surgery that leads to a shorter hospital stay, a faster recovery and a higher level of activity.
However, PKR is still not widely adopted and surgeons can experience difficulties in obtaining the desired patient outcomes, with risk of failure due to implant design limits to accommodate individual patient anatomy, and highly demanding and, not reproducible surgical techniques that lack a patient-specific approach and a well-defined education program.
Medacta has designed a new and optimized partial knee platform that allows the surgeon to always take full advantage of
ENHANCED IMPLANT DESIGN
UNPARALLELED INTRA-OPERATIVE FLEXIBILITY
COMPREHENSIVE SURGEON EDUCATION
