What is the difference between PKA, UKA and TKA? Knee Replacement Surgery, Orlando, Florida

What is the difference between PKA, UKA and TKR? Has your UKA failed? Do you need a failed UKA converted to a total knee replacement TKR? Bearing dislocation, aseptic mechanical loosening or progression of osteoarthritis may cause early UKA failure. Eventually, a partial knee replacement needs to be converted to a total knee replacement.

Arthroplasty is the orthopedic surgical procedure to replace a damaged joint. Arthroplasty comes from two Greek words, "arthro" means joint and "plasty" refers to the process of molding or forming. PKA, Partial Knee Arthroplasty, is also called UKA, Unicondylar Knee Arthroplasty, or UKA, Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty, where only a portion of the knee is resurfaced. TKA means Total Knee Arthroplasty or TKR stands for Total Knee Replacement Surgery. The most common cause of severe chronic pain and disability is Arthritis.

UKA Study Facts: This retrospective study determined the main causes for early and late failures of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). A total of 254 cases (53.9 %) failed within five years after primary implantation, and 108 cases (22.9 %) failed after ten years. The major reason for failure was the development of other compartment arthritis (39.5 %), followed by aseptic loosening (25.4 %). Conclusions. Of importance, the mean time to failure after UKA was 6.1 years, with more than 50 % of failures occurring within the first five years postoperatively. Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a surgical technique used for the treatment of osteoarthritis in one compartment of the knee, most commonly in the medial compartment. In contrast, a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is used for the treatment of osteoarthritis in all three compartments of the knee. UKA was first introduced in the 1970s. This activity reviews the indications for UKA and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the management of patients with osteoarthritis.
