Partial Knee Replacement

Partial knee replacement offers a less invasive alternative to total knee replacement for patients with arthritis confined to one compartment of the knee. Our fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons use advanced techniques to preserve healthy knee tissue while effectively treating damaged areas.

Comprehensive knee care from diagnosis to recovery—all in one place.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Start With the Least-Invasive Options

Most patients improve without surgery. Our team takes a conservative-first approach with treatments designed to reduce pain, improve strength, and prevent future flare-ups.

Non-Surgical Knee Treatments

  • Physical Therapy Our licensed physical therapists develop customized exercise programs to strengthen muscles around your knee and improve joint stability. Targeted therapy can significantly reduce pain and improve function before considering surgical options.
    • Strengthening exercises for quadriceps and hamstrings
    • Range of motion and flexibility training
  • Injection Therapy Corticosteroid or hyaluronic acid injections can provide significant pain relief and improve joint lubrication. These treatments are performed in-office using ultrasound guidance for precise placement.
    • Corticosteroid injections for inflammation reduction
    • Hyaluronic acid injections for joint lubrication
  • Activity Modification Our team helps you identify activities that may aggravate your knee arthritis and provides alternatives to maintain an active lifestyle. Weight management support is also available to reduce joint stress.
    • Low-impact exercise recommendations
    • Ergonomic and lifestyle adjustments
  • Bracing and Orthotics Custom knee braces and shoe orthotics can help redistribute weight away from the damaged compartment, reducing pain and improving function during daily activities.
    • Unloader knee braces for compartment-specific relief
    • Custom orthotics for improved alignment
Star
Many patients experience significant pain reduction and improved mobility within 6-8 weeks of starting their personalized non-surgical treatment plan.

Partial Knee Replacement

Watch how our fellowship-trained surgeons perform minimally invasive partial knee replacement using advanced techniques.

Surgical Knee Procedures

  • Unicompartmental Knee Replacement This minimally invasive procedure replaces only the damaged compartment of your knee while preserving healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments. Recovery is typically faster than total knee replacement with excellent long-term outcomes.
  • Robotic-Assisted Partial Knee Replacement Using advanced robotic technology, our surgeons can achieve precise implant placement and optimal alignment. This technology enhances surgical accuracy and can lead to improved outcomes and longevity of your knee replacement.
  • Custom Partial Knee Replacement Patient-specific implants are designed based on your individual anatomy using advanced CT imaging. These custom implants can provide a more natural fit and improved function compared to standard implants.
Star
Over 92% of our partial knee replacement patients report significant pain relief and return to normal activities within 8-12 weeks.
