Partial (Unicondylar) Knee Replacement / Microplasy
Why replace the entire joint when only the damaged part can be treated?
Patients at any age with early arthritis often experience pain during walking, climbing stairs and prolonged standing. In such cases, Partial Knee Replacement may provide effective pain relief with a smaller surgery and quicker recovery compared to Total Knee Replacement.
Partial Knee Replacement (PKR) is carried out for patients with early-stage knee damage (stage 2/3), aiming to preserve most of the healthy cartilage and tissue while replacing the damaged half of the joint with tiny implants and artificial meniscus.
Partial Knee Replacement is commonly recommended for patients whose arthritis or knee damage is limited to a specific part of the knee joint more commonly on medial part of the joint. However lateral microplasty is also performed.
Unlike Total Knee Replacement, this procedure replaces only the affected compartment while preserving almost 70% of the natural joint the healthy portions of the knee, helping maintaining natural joint movement and stability.
We use advanced world class implants and minimally invasive surgical techniques to improve precision, reduce tissue damage, and support faster rehabilitation and long-term comfort.

Recovery & Rehabilitation
Recovery after Partial Knee Replacement is usually quicker compared to total knee replacement because less bone and soft tissue are affected during surgery. Physiotherapy and guided movement exercises help improve flexibility, strength, and overall knee function.
Our team provides complete rehabilitation guidance and post-surgery support to help patients return to daily activities safely and comfortably with improved mobility and reduced pain.
