Unicompartmental Knee Surgery
Patients that exhibit osteoarthritis in one compartment may not need a total joint replacement to relieve pain and restore function of the knee. An alternative option is a unicompartmental implant. The Repicci II Unicondylar Program is designed to address these patients (Figure 3). This device is much smaller than a total knee implant and leaves the healthy tissues intact.

Repicci II implants resurface one compartments of the knee. Note the size of the implants compared to a total knee.
