Partial knee replacement (unicompartmental knee replacement) replaces only the worn part of the knee and keeps healthy bone, cartilage and ligaments. It often allows a quicker recovery and a more natural-feeling knee.

Typical hospital stay: 2 to 3 days

Time to plan in India: 10 to 14 days

Who needs it?

  • Arthritis limited to one part of the knee

  • Intact knee ligaments

  • Good range of movement

How it's done

  1. Assessment with X-rays or MRI to confirm suitability

  2. Spinal or general anaesthesia

  3. Only the damaged compartment is resurfaced through a smaller incision

  4. Surgery takes about 1 to 1.5 hours

Recovery timeline

  • Day 1: walking with support

  • Week 2 to 4: walking independently

  • Week 6: most daily activities resume

FAQs

Am I a candidate? Only if arthritis is limited to one area; your surgeon confirms from your scans.

Can it be converted later? Yes, it can be converted to a total knee replacement if needed.
