Price et. al. compared 40 unicondylar knee arthroplasty patients with small incisions and no patella dislocation to 20 UKAs (unicondylar knee arthroplasties) with standard incisions and 40 TKAs (total knee arthroplasties) . The average rate of recovery (measured by the time taken to achieve straight-leg raising, 70 degrees of flexion, and independent stair climbing) following the small incision UKAs was twice as fast as after standard UKAs and three times as fast as TKAs. Accuracy of implantation was the same for the two UKA groups.
