Abstract
n this study focusing on patients diagnosed with medial compartmental osteoarthritis, we conducted an examination of 60 consecutive cases of primary unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) performed by a single surgeon. Among these cases, 30 were treated with Allegretto knee implants without navigation, and the remaining 30 received EIUS knee implants with the aid of navigation. The evaluation encompassed survivorship, radiological measurements, and clinical outcomes, with comparisons conducted at average follow-up periods of 8.8 and 6.8 years, respectively. Radiological alignment assessments were carried out using both long-leg weightbearing X-ray images and non-weight bearing computed tomography scans. In addition to radiological evaluations, clinical outcomes were assessed using the Oxford Knee Score (OKS). At the 9-year mark, a notable 88.9% of patients maintained survival. Interestingly, a trend emerged where malaligned knees exhibited lower OKS values compared to well-aligned knees, with alignment consistency playing a role in this observation. In contrast, despite these nuances, no statistically significant disparities were identified between the two groups in terms of survival rates, clinical outcomes, or radiological alignment
