The present study aimed to investigate differences in survivorship between medial and lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) by analyzing the data of an Italian regional registry. The hypothesis was that, according to recent literature, lateral implants have comparable survivorship with regard to the medial implants.
Lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) showed a lower risk of failure compared to medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in the Register of Prosthetic Orthopedic Implants (RIPO)

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate differences in survivorship between medial and lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) by analyzing the data of an Italian regional registry. The hypothesis was that, according to recent literature, lateral implants have comparable survivorship with regard to the medial implants.File in questo prodotto:
