Oxford® Cementless Partial Knee Replacement
At Orthopedic Associates, we are committed to offering the latest and most advanced techniques to deliver patient-centered orthopedic solutions. Board-certified and fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon Dr. Gregory Nelson is proud to offer Oxford Cementless Partial Knee replacement to continue that focus. This innovative procedure combines advanced engineering and the body’s natural healing ability to restore comfort and mobility for patients with degenerative knee conditions.
What is Oxford Cementless Partial Knee Replacement?
Oxford Cementless Partial Knee replacement is a minimally invasive orthopedic procedure designed to replace only the damaged compartment of the knee using a specially designed implant that does not rely on bone cement for fixation. Instead, these implants feature a porous surface that encourages the patient’s natural bone to grow into the implant, creating a secure and lasting bond.
Benefits include:
- Cementless design: Allows the bone to fuse to the implant for long-term stability and avoids cement-related issues, like loosening, cement debris, and inflammation.
- Bone and ligament preservation: Maintains more of the patient’s natural knee for better function and a more natural feel.
- Less invasive: Smaller incisions and less tissue disruption reduce pain and offer a faster recovery, achieved with a same-day surgery.
- Easy revisions: If needed, converting to a total knee replacement is normally simpler than revising a full knee replacement.
Is This Procedure Right for You?
Oxford Cementless Partial Knee replacement may be an ideal solution if you:
- Experience localized knee pain in just one compartment of your knee
- Maintain relatively good joint function and alignment
- Have not found relief through conservative treatments such as medications, injections, or physical therapy
