Partial Knee Replacement (UKA)
Our services
Partial Knee Replacement (UKA)
Partial knee replacement involves removing and replacing only the damaged compartments of the knee. Partial knee replacement surgery is also referred to as uni-compartmental knee replacement. Only a piece of the knee is resurfaced with metal and medical grade plastic components in uni-compartmental knee replacement. For individuals whose illness is restricted to only one part of the knee, this technique serves as an alternative to complete knee replacement.
Signs of Knee Osteoarthritis
Grinding Sensation or Clicking in the Knee
A grinding sensation or clicking noise during movement, or a feeling that the knee is loose
Rotator Cuff Repair Surgery
Pain in the knee while walking, standing, or doing daily activities.
Decreased knee usage
Limited range of motion—difficulty fully bending or straightening the knee, or sitting cross-legged.
Leg Deformity
Leg deformities such as bowlegs or knock-knees due to deterioration on one side of the joint.
Diagnosis of Knee Osteoarthritis
At S Spine & Joint Hospital, a specialist facility for spine and joint care, we prioritize identifying the root cause before treatment. Our expert physicians perform comprehensive evaluations. Every patient showing signs of musculoskeletal conditions undergoes X-ray and MRI scans to assess the extent of joint damage before determining the most suitable treatment.
Treatment Technique
We stand out with our S-Quality Standard, which comprises three core elements:
Specialist Physician
🎯 Fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons following our hospital’s treatment protocols.
Special Teamwork
🎯 Skilled support teams who understand orthopedic procedures and coordinate effectively with surgeons to optimize treatment time.
Advanced Specialized Technology
🎯 World-class, state-of-the-art technologies designed for spine and joint treatment. Any missing component could compromise treatment outcomes.
ขั้นตอนการรักษา
We use advanced technologies specifically designed for spinal and joint treatments—including global-standard surgical instruments and open MRIs that adjust from lying to standing positions. This ensures accurate diagnosis and efficient treatment. The absence of any element may affect the success of the treatment.
Identifying the Cause
Diagnosis begins with posture-specific X-rays and upright MRI scans to evaluate abnormalities in cervical discs. Physicians combine both sets of images for a highly accurate assessment.
Preparation Before Treatment
Patients will receive pre-treatment instructions, such as fasting or informing the doctor of any existing conditions or allergies. A thorough physical examination will also be conducted.
Partial Knee Replacement (UKA)
In UKA, only the damaged part of the knee (medial or lateral) is replaced while preserving healthy bone. With the aid of specialized orthopedic tools and high-grade prosthetics, patients experience faster recovery and improved mobility.
Follow-Up and Recovery
After treatment, the doctor and a specialized support team will monitor the recovery progress and evaluate the patient's condition to ensure pain relief, no complications, and a full return to normal life.
