Abstract
The aims of this work were to determine the complexity of surgery required to revise failed unicompartmental knee replacement and to evaluate the outcomes following revision. Most failed unicompartmental knee replacement cases could be revised without the need for stemmed implants, augmentation, or bone allograft. When bone loss occurred, it was commonly on the tibia side. Good functional outcome for the revised unicompartmental knee replacement was generally superior to the total knee replacement revision and in many cases comparable to primary knee replacement.
