Summary

Patient-specific instrumentation guides have previously been used to improving surgical accuracy and ease of implantation during Total Knee Replacement but have received less attention for implanting Unicompartmental Knee Replacement. The aim of this prospective study is to compare the accuracy of implantation and functional outcome of mobile bearing medial Unicompartmental Knee Replacement implanted with and without patient specific instrumentation by experienced knee surgeons.

Conditions

  • Knee Arthritis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Patient Specific Instrumentation

Patients will undergo a medial unicompartmental knee replacement. This knee replacement is implanted using patient specific cutting guides that have been produced based on the patient's individual anatomy (using plans from pre-operative MRI scans of the patient's knee).

PROCEDURE

Conventional Instrumentation

Patients will undergo a medial unicompartmental knee replacement using standard conventional instruments.
