Partial knee arthroplasty offers a viable alternative for knee conditions. This review covers indications, techniques, and implant options for various partial knee procedures, including combined ACL reconstruction.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Partial knee arthroplasty (PKA) has seen increased interest.
  • Familiarity with PKA indications, contraindications, and techniques is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of PKA.
  • To compare various PKA implant choices.
  • To review combined PKA and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of classic and current PKA practices.
  • Comparative analysis of PKA implant designs and outcomes.
  • Examination of surgical techniques for combined PKA and ACL reconstruction.

Main Results:

  • PKA encompasses patellofemoral, medial unicompartmental, and lateral unicompartmental approaches.
