Overstuffed medial compartment after mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

B Kerens et al. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. 2011 Jun.

Abstract

Overstuffing of the medial compartment in medial compartmental knee arthroplasty is a known pitfall. Attention to the flexion-extension gap should be addressed. If, however, overstuffing is found it can be corrected by revising the femoral component only.
