Abstract
Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) has several advantages over total knee arthroplasty; however, in many reports, the risk of revision remains higher after UKA.Many reasons for failure of UKA exist.Successful treatment starts with accurate assessment of the symptomatic UKA as a specific mode of failure requires a specific solution.A structured and comprehensive evaluation aids assessment of the symptomatic UKA.This review provides an overview of the causes for a symptomatic medial UKA, its risk factors, diagnostic modalities that can be used, and briefly discusses treatment options.
