Medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasties: Radiographic findings associated with conversion to total knee arthroplasty - A Case control study
Key Points
Conversion to total knee arthroplasty is linked to specific radiographic findings in medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasties.
Notably, variables such as joint alignment and bone quality significantly affect the conversion rate observed.
This case control study assessed radiographic criteria among knee arthroplasty patients to uncover associated conversion factors.
Findings highlight the potential need for closer monitoring of patients with particular radiographic characteristics.
