Abstract
Superior functional outcomes were noted after medial UKA over TKA in patients presenting with medial OA with these prostheses. Subgroup analyses suggest that medial UKA is the preferred treatment in younger patients and females while no differences were noted in older patients and males after medial UKA and TKA. This might help the orthopedic surgeon in individualizing arthroplasty treatment for patients with medial OA.
