MAKOplasty® Robotic Parital Knee Replacement
MAKOplasty® is a resurfacing of the joint with much
less bone being removed. Soft tissues and ligaments remain untouched which allows
for an overall less invasive procedure. MAKOplasty® partial knee resurfacing is an
innovative treatment option for adults living with early to mid-stage osteoarthritis in
either the medial, patellofemoral - or both - compartments of the knee.

Oxford® Partial Knee Replacement
The Oxford® Partial Knee implant is a partial knee implant designed to repair only one side of the knee (the medial side), making it much smaller than a total knee implant. Usually Osteoarthritis on the knee first occurs in the inside portion of the joint. In knees that are otherwise healthy, a partial knee replacement can preserve the healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments. This can potentially prevent or delay the need for a total knee replacement.
