KNEE ARTHRITIS - Unicompartmental knee replacement :

UniSpacer Knee System/Unicompartmental - - Posted by davedoc911 (davedoc911), 7 June 2004

At our Center for Sports Orthopaedics, SC, we have had significant experience/sucesses with numerous UniSpacer's. To our knowledge, we have performed the greatest number of UniSpacer procedures in the Midwest. The UniSpacer is minimally invasive as oppossed to a partial or complete knee replacement. We have refined the procedure and believe our results speak for themselves. The indication for the procedure is really not age-related, it's knee anatomy- related. For the appropriate/% of patients, the UniSpacer remains a very good option with regard to more invasive total (or partial) knee procedures.
