Isolated lateral compartment cartilage changes on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging should not automatically preclude medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: A cohort study of 100 magnetic resonance imaging scans.
PURPOSE Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) frequently detects lateral compartment abnormalities in patients considered for medial unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR). The long-term prognostic significance of these findings remains unclear and may influence patient selection. The purpose of this study was to investiga...
