Total or partial: how to choose?

The choice depends on the distribution of osteoarthritis, ligament integrity and limb alignment. A unicompartmental prosthesis is favoured when arthritis is confined to one compartment.

How long is rehabilitation?

Structured rehabilitation of 6 to 12 weeks is required. Full recovery of flexion and strength continues up to 12 months.

Can I kneel with a knee replacement?

Yes, in most patients after 6 months, occasionally with residual scar sensitivity. A cushion is recommended.
