When arthritis affects the knee joint, a partial or total knee replacement can be performed to relieve pain and improve function. The decision between a partial and total knee replacement depends on the extent of arthritis within the knee joint.
The knee joint can be anatomically divided into three compartments.
Medial compartment
Lateral compartment
Patellofemoral compartment
