Outcomes of Patients With Unicompartmental Arthritis of the Knee Five Years After Treatment With Partial Knee Replacement
The study seeks to evaluate the condition of patients 5 years after having undergone partial
knee replacement for localized osteoarthritis of the knee. Participating patients will
voluntarily undergo detailed evaluation of clinical and radiologic outcomes 5 years after
surgery. The aims of the study are to describe the survivorship of the prostheses and the
clinical results of patients, and to elucidate and describe the natural history disease of
the untreated knee joint compartments after a partial replacement. Patients who were operated
by the principal investigator 5 years previously will be invited to participate. The study is
observational in nature; there is no element of experimentation or test of an intervention.
