Abstract

Between May 2001 and May 2003, 233 consecutive Preservation unicompartmental knee replacements (UKR) were performed. Of these, 30 were lateral UKRs (13%) performed in 12 men and 16 women (2 bilateral cases) with a mean age of 67 years (range 36–93 years). A metal-backed mobile bearing tibial component was used in 13 knees and an all-polyethylene fixed bearing tibial component in 17 knees. The patients were reviewed prospectively at 1 and 2 years. The 2 year results show no difference in range of motion or function between the mobile and fixed bearing versions of the Preservation knee when used on the lateral side. There were three early revisions, all in the mobile bearing group.
