UKA outperforms TKA in PROMs: Better function and satisfaction at short-term follow-up

Objectives and questions: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are established surgical options for end-stage osteoarthritis (OA) refractory to non-operative management. However, the optimal choice remains debated, with conflicting reported evidence on outcomes [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
