Partial Knee Replacement Surgery at Olwen Hospital
Olwen Hospital provides Partial Knee Replacement for patients whose arthritis or joint damage is limited to one compartment of the knee. In this procedure, only the damaged part of the joint is replaced, and the rest of the knee is retained. Whether it is suitable depends on clinical examination and imaging, and your surgeon will discuss the options with you.
What Is Partial Knee Replacement?
Partial Knee Replacement is a surgical procedure where only the damaged part of the knee joint is replaced with an artificial implant. Unlike total knee replacement, this procedure focuses only on the affected area, keeping the healthy parts of the knee untouched. It helps reduce pain, improve movement, and keep the knee feeling more natural compared to total knee replacement.
This procedure is done using a small cut, which means less bleeding, less pain after surgery, and a shorter hospital stay. Most patients are able to start walking within a day or two after the surgery.
